I'm thinking A LOT about Harry Darger.

Smells like my soul.

Like an old cave. Like tunnels running underneath all my favorite places. Warm and wet. Ahh... I just ordered this today and I can't wait.

Taylor sent me a picture of Mork and Mindy for Christmas and Max and I talked for almost two and a half hours today. Happily unproductive productivity? Very.

I'm felting my lunch sack. I haven't done it in so long and i forgot what a pain it is. My washing machine is too old and frail to felt it on its own, so that leaves me in the basement, hands soaking in scalding water rubbing wool together like a madperson. Bah.

G.O.B. survived his mystery illness. No one knows what he had, but I believe he was cured by Brian's shaman friend in Jamaica Plain. Thanks for making that trip to pray for my cat, Sebastian. Dill pickle to my cheese...

I don't want to go back to Lawrence. I wish UMKC was actually a good school so I could go there and love where I live. I'm tired of college students. I want to live with real people.

слишком мило!

It is unfortunate getting to Greenland is so difficult. I think it would just be easier to sail there.

that was a good tree

I'm sort of excited/confused about tomorrow since all I asked for was a replacement tampon case and there are five presents under the tree with my name on them.

Oh and hey! Happy holidays!

I started reading "Nausea"

by Sartre. Here's what I've concluded so far:

1. Existentialism has little or no place in the 21st century.
2. Philosophy in general is a subject limited to white bourgeois Europeans who have/had way too much time to sit around and think about this crap thinking what they're thinking about is important. Not like I didn't already know that, but this book is a constant reminder.

I'm off to a good start this break. I picked out a bike color, reconstructed a shirt and started knitting this so far. Unproductive productivity, here I come!

hold me to this!

Things I WILL do over break:

paint my bike
research the history of the Vogels in Shawnee, KS
read one really satisfying book that has nothing to do with academia
sew curtains for my kvartira
knit something fun
sew myself an adult sized onesie
photodocument
record more perfect noises
spend as much time as I can in the city I am so enamored with

I want to feel accomplished.

Dear Legs,

It's winter now. That means you get to be hairy and warm and free for another three months! Are you excited? I am!
