So…
a few people have asked me what housewarming gifts they should get me
i didn’t realize this was part of the deal, i just want to have a party at my place
HOWEVER
i love the idea of gifts
so i’ll ask
and you can bring it if you have it to give:

the big red Allen Ginsberg book of collected poems
a small (hand held?) vacuum cleaner
a small nightstand or lamp table
extra house-plant pots of any size
extra full-size sheets (all natural fabric please, i usually sleep on 300+)
towels
a saw (for wood, not metal)
any interesting lamp…

i’ve already been given tons of clothes, so may be giving some away at the party
but anything beautiful and colorful (and made of natural fabric: including rayon) i would take

every once in a while
( like tonight )
I feel like defying socially acceptable behaviour

I want to stand in front of cars and make them wait
admonishing them for being so big and loud and noisy

I see all the fat men walking towards their wives
approaching the corner I’m crossing to
sitting on the steps as I walk by
I want to reach out and rub their bellies

I am not afraid of getting run over
or beaten up
but of letting myself get away with any whim or compulsion

being crazy is not caring anymore

I care!
I care!

i just posted a bunch of pictures in flickr that are from “the past”
these i scanned back in 2003… found a box of photos and selected a few… went to some random guy’s house i’d met on the internet (i think i posted a craigslist ad: “any body have a scanner i can use? up for conversation and technology only…”)
this visit back to my parents inspired me to actually edit the psd files into snapshots…
click this pic to go to my flickr site…
… enjoy?

sometimes i think people are cumbersome and stupid
yet talking to water is nice

the wall being alive is nice
the lightbulb being alive is nice
my plants are nice
the air is nice

these things bring me joy
humans do too… but so much strife…

my relationship to silent objects has always been better than my
relationship with other people.

ferry’s are awesome

( I’ve been saying “awesome” a lot lately… what’s that about?)

pets:
dogs dogs dogs
and cars

the smells

this stinky city
and insecticide
and fertilizers
clean lawns
the herbacide

maybe it’s the movement that causes the camera to glitch?

no

but anyway
I gotta go
rushing here
to wait for a late boarding plane

whole family together
and all the guys who want to hook up
… what about old friends?
