dreamlife

Ok....
I don't know if I've posted about this already but lately I've been dreaming about oddly shaped hummingbirds. This drawing is from the first dream. In the drawing there is a 16 year old boy in a hummingbird suit that he made himself. He flew up to me while I was sitting on my parent's front porch and scared the cats. He was a sweet kid. I thought he was innovative for making himself such an unusual functioning flying suit. It was furry like a teddybear with a body shaped like a punching bag(the kind you hit and it pops up again.) The wings were tiny, smaller than I drew them but they fluttered so quickly like a hummingbirds and kept the boy afloat in the air. I think that boy is me, how I want to be.

a few pictures....

Zoë took this photo while we were waiting on Casey to run down the street and get the 25-dollar money order we needed for the wedding. Not a bad price, huh?
image


This one was taken a couple of minutes after the "marriage." Zoë Lavatelli and Mike Louie went as our witnesses. Anna had to work but she went shopping with me the night before. Casey has lipstick all over his face.
image


This is while we were waiting to be called. It was all very bureaucratic but still fun. I'm glad we missed the stress of planning a big wedding. I do feel pretty guilty for getting married when so many of my friends can't legally get married.
image
image


Here is one where we got to kiss! I got a little tongue yawl. Is that why the justice of the peace is looking at us like that?
image

And finally here we are in our hotel room. We had to kick Zoë out after getting her all tipsy with some bubbly. Then we got to consummate, ah yeah, sadly only three times before red monster came.

bad things

My sister took an overdose of pills the other day. My Mama told me about it a few minutes ago. I know my sis is going through a tough time. She's 27, a single mom and she lives with our parents. She just lost her job and her boyfriend. I'm worried but I'm now in Brooklyn. I don't know how I can help even if I were in GA. It scares me to death to imagine this world without my sister. Even if I don't "get" her all the time an even if I don't see her all the time just knowing of her existence helps me and I don't know how I could ever be happy if her existence were terminated.
We all share 80% of DNA with our siblings. It's amazing we can feel sso disconnected sometimes.

YAY

Casey got his driver's license today! No more driving his ass around.

Other good things... I'm the Wii golf champion. I have one chin hair. I have a few grey hairs so now I get to dye my hair. Casey is worried about my WOW addiction. I'm now a level 20 Tauren druid named Angline. I figure I'm not that addicted because I still don't understand all the abbreviations. Maybe someone can hook me up with a dictionary for that geek slang.


and the hair dye is in. holy shit this stuff stinks.


We are leaving for Brooklyn on Thursday or Friday. I'll be happy to leave Georgia. I'm fairly certain I'll die in Georgia. My little run in with the law in Athens does nothing to diminish that suspicion. I would rather die that be imprisoned.

Not that we all aren't imprisoned anyway but it's the literal prison that makes me want to rip off my skin and floss my teeth with my veins. At least right now I have some choices.

I choose to dye my hair.
I choose to smoke reds.
I choose to ask Casey how to spell choose and not chose, God Damn it.
I chose not to drink... but I'm reconsidering.
I choose to dye my jeans red.
I choose to wear a bra because in high school I chose not to too often.

Now I choose to quit writing this pointless entry and get back to my editing... or rinse my hair.

I'll leave y'all with my favorite Atlanta bathroom graffiti even though it don't make sense now (unless you have trouble parting from you laptop even for a moment)

"If you are reading this that mean you are probably taking some sort of dump or pee...
Yeah, have fun with that, uhhh"


I made a yellow wallpaper video last night. I'm not trying to say Casey is driving my nuts but I do go a little nuts sometimes. It's best to get it out in an imaginative and harmless way. It has been a while since I've had to comprimis so much.

chicken soup for the e:strip soul

Last Friday my sister found a little puppy at the end of the driveway. There is no way they could keep it and I didn't want them to. My sister is bad about bringing home animals and not taking proper care of them. She'll feed them and everything but some animals need allot more. This little puppy needed a trip to the vet to see if he had worms. He also needed constant attention and affection.
After spending the night on the couch beside the puppy (I made him a bed out of a basket and my childhood teddy bear) I decided to post an ad on craigslist and find him a good home. I made this video to go with the ad .
By the Saturday night I'd gotten about six responses. My little niece Lea was having a birthday party and after that I was going to head for Atlanta.
Lea just turned 2 years old. When we all gathered around and sang her happy birthday she got all freaked out. Halfway through the song Lea folded her little arms, placed her head in them and started crying. Her Mama turned on the lights really fast and got her distracted with blowing out the candles. D, Lea's mama made the best chocolate cake. ummmm
After that my Dad and me went out and got the puppy. We brought him to D's house and all the kids went nuts over him. D's sister, Amy volunteered to puppysit and today when I called Amy she say's that she's talked it over with her husband and they've decided to keep the puppy. I couldn't be happier than I am now, knowing that the sweet little puppy is in a safe and loving home.

blah blah

other arms reach out to me,
but still in not so peaceful dreams I see,
this place will surely kill me,
ee ee
oh!

The police ain't nice around these parts. Fuck Athens.
I'm officially an addict. The World of Warcraft has locked it's evil grip around my weak little mind. I mean my strong all powerful druid mind. I can't seem to stick with a character for long...
I wish somebody would play with me.
ah, beautiful escapism.
