i’ve been back in the UK now for nearly a week, and everything is falling back into place. tomorrow i’m off to cardiff for the day, but in the meantime, here are some things i’ve been into lately: BOOKS i read this wonderful book of short stories about brooklyn on my transatlantic journey and various, [ READ MORE ]
but it looks like i finally learned how to make my own ring tones. now i can live out my dream of having an alarm clock which plays the first two lines of “good day sunshine”. more importantly, i have a way of playing the sexual harassment panda theme song as part of my costume [ READ MORE ]
i can’t really think of any way to tie everything together that i want to write about, so i guess you’ll be getting a ‘best of’ blog. *nick ackerman came to london last weekend, and we hung out for a day. of all the bizarre things we saw, the best was a stand on the [ READ MORE ]

i feel slightly guilty that i’m still in bed and it’s 11:30, but i worked hard hanging a show at the mall galleries yesterday and i’m working at another gallery tomorrow…and life is busy. but i am on my way to swim at london fields (one of the few, if not only, heated outdoor olympic-sized [ READ MORE ]
spain was fantastic. i could not have asked for better travel companions than becca, trimble, and con. we saw lots of cool things and drank a ton of sangria. my last couple hours were spent on a boat moored in a marina, drinking sangria, eatings really good tapas, and just talking as the sun set [ READ MORE ]
