some chick

D'Orowing from Weimar just sent me this message, I think it's sweet.

"One strong picture is in my memory: your dark brown eyes.
I believe that I could recognize you in many years because of your
eyes. Because of the color, the round shape and especially because of
the eye's movements (like dancing) when you talked. Your eyes
maneuvered, satellites alike, looking for joining to "another" world."

narrative idea

I'm finally recovering from that silly night last night. I just had an idea for a narrative.
A few weeks ago my sister-in-law, Dee, called to tell me that my 5 year old niece, Kiah, ran away from home and moved in with Dee.
Kiah lives with my parents and my sister. Apparently one day, she came across a pair of scissors and cut up one of her dresses. When Granny found out she really had it out with Kiah. It hurt Kiah's feeling so much that she decided to move out. She went and packed her suitcase and walked over to my brother's house.

I just think it's really funny that Kiah did not really "run away" but decided to move out. How adult of her. She stayed one night at Dee's and then got homesick.

It seems like a good video. To have a little kid go up to an adult with her suitcase in hand and say "I've decided I'm not happy here. I'm going to move out"

I like the reversal of roles. Suddenly Kiah is the grown up. I think this could be a good starting point for something.

nobody knows the way i feel this mornin'

at the pink last night...
around 2 in the mornin' i was so drunk i left my bag in the bathroom. I quickly realized and went back to fetch it. As soon as I found it in the bathroom, i checked inside and realized my camera was missing so i sat on the floor and started crying. 2 women were in there. they went into a stall and one by one returned my things to me, first my keys, then my camera, then my tape, all in the guise of "we just found this". I have some footage from sitting on the floor. More women came in and joined me on the floor, started bitching about romantic relationships. needless to say i left shortly thereafter.
thanks for coming y'all who showed up. silly night there, can't wait till Saturday.

going insane

I'm going around the clock. I have 3 hours to get this reel together. Then I head to soyeon's house. She is having a party lil b-day thing for some art grads and I'm going to dub my shit out to mini-dv while I'm there. Then there is a possibility that I could get drunk. Considering the fact I've been awake for over 24 hours, again... I'm not sure if that would be wise. I'll be so happy when this is over an done and I'm sitting in some weird art place in Greensboro, NC, sweating my vulva off, thinking "what now?"
I've been making audio today. It's insane. My throat hurts. Y'all ever heard my preachin' voice? I'm up to 2 or 3 packs of Marlboro reds a day. This I blame on Courtney. She brought back all my teenage angst. Damn I should go live on her couch in Portland. Ok, enough rant I'm going back to editing. Time to fuck with Schopenhauer, hehe. I enjoy making fun of the dead.

haircut day

tom just sent me a few pics from when Arzu cut my hair(she beat you to it Lil ho), last Easter Sunday. It's the middle of the afternoon for me. I'm going to be editing video all night. You (e:peeps) had best come out to Hallwalls on Thursday to see my screening... or else, yeah.

men are scary

I walk alone at night. Usually a few blocks down to the 24 hour Walgreens to get smokes. At least once or twice a month I get hit on by some man from his car. What is creepy is that the last two times it happened, at first I thought the guy was someone I knew so I slowed down to look.
Tonight, or this morning, when it happened I was only a few steps from my house. This man did a U turn and pulled up beside me. I thought it was Chris, my neighbor, so I slowed down. Then I saw it was a complete stranger. He asked me "Where are you going" and I told him "home." Then he asked "where do you live" so I turned away and said "see ya."
Am I a paranoid freak for thinking that this man was insane if he thought I would get into the car with him?
Do any of you men have this problem with unwanted attention from drivers when you are a pedestrian?
Do any of you try to give strange women rides in the middle of the night?
I've been thinking about women's fear of men and wondering about the logic of it.
In the video class I teach it's not uncommon to encounter misogynistic videos made by young men. The last one made me think. Why do young men want to make films that depict violence towards women?
and now...
Why am I afraid to get a ride with a strange man?
