oh the days the rain would fall your way.










BEACH LIFE.

i want it forever.

7.30.2009

heat wavvvvvvve.



all anyone can talk about in seattle is the record breaking temps. i just swam in a man made lake that is pretty disgusting and it felt like bath water. i have been to the beach more times in the last 2 weeks than the whole summer last year (which was a total rip off). this is the best summer i have ever had in the 9 years i have lived here. extreme weather 09!

don't shake it off.

mika miko making me (and a lot of other people) so very happy at the capitol hill block party.
the most fun i had at the whole thing. funner than sonic youth even!

towel punk.




we had to chill out a lot at the block party cuz it was stupid hot.

it was one million degrees in the cha cha dungeon but we stayed to see moonrats anyway. sweaty times.
the heat makes folks surly.

glistening.

and then it was over and there was so much trash, it totally hurt my feelings.

7.28.2009

in it to win it.

i feel you noon and night.




MACAROONS!

my sister took me to honore bakery in ballard the other day and it blew my mind. i basically need to eat these every day now, i am totally ruined.

the hot dog guy.






i've said it before, but i think it's just really nice to just look into your friends eyes sometimes. just stare at each other.

7.24.2009

take hold.










summertime in our yard. this has been the best seattle summer in a good long while.

7.23.2009

only the lonely.


i can't believe the difference this little crazy dog's presence has made in my son's life.

chris went from looking like christian slater to zach galifianakis.

if you sing a song, sing a song for them.





7.15.2009

will you tell us that you're ok?


been painting on wood again. wood from home depot. it's really the way to go. 

this is the last few days of my solo show at gossamer collective. head on over there if you want to see that stuff with your own eyeballs. internet art viewing just isn't the same as really scoping something out for yourself. show comes down on saturday. as always, you can click on the painting if you would like to see it bigger.

reading + rocking.


jessica hopper wrote a book and is doing a reading tonight at 7:30 at the vera project! bring any tween/teen girls in your life. like so many people, i wish this was around when i was 14 and too shy to ask the boys with guitars that i knew to let me try to play one, instead i just stared at them while they practiced "smells like teen spirit" over and over. how fucking boring.

also consider buying a copy or two and donating to your local community center/elementary/jr. high/high school library. find it at your local bookshop or here.
