Is today Tuesday? shiiiiiiiit – I have so much to do and already it’s Tuesday 5pm.

“BloG!”, says the angry public. (well, actually just Ajax, he needs a fix :) Boy don’t I KNOW IT! Since he doesn’t blog over every single weekend and I am literally crawling on the floor jonesin for the next post. It’s agonizing. But how cool is that name? “Ajax”? I might name my first kid that. Or “Five”. That’d be a cool name. And I’d spell it “5ive”.

DUDE I’m listening to OutKast!!!!! The whole CD!!! It’s way different than I thought! I dig it!!! I almost thought my friend made the CD wrong – but “Hey Ya” just came on and the world is right again. [You should watch the video, if you haven't already] I’m a sucker for the part of the song that goes “shake it like a polaroid-picture” – that’s genius.

So tonite is Rosie Thomas/Damien Jurado – should be a good show… I love Rosie Thomas. Hopefully she’ll do some of her crazy standup. She’s so funny.. when she talks she has this teeny little sweet voice…. and then when she sings it’s this beautiful lavender melody of silk ribbons and cream. How was that for a description? I’m trying to make my reviews more interesting. Adjectives defy me though, so I might start kinda rusty. Things go through my head like how soft the insides of banana peels feel when you rub them between your fingers.. but somehow I think that reviewing someone’s voice with that image doesn’t really do the trick. Hey – I’m TRYING! Don’t put me in a box – I must think FREEEEEEELY!!!!

This reminds me of back in high school, how my friend John & I used to make up songs on the fly. Or random words – and we pissed off my friend Michelle once cuz she didn’t know about our stupid little game. John is REALLY good at makin up songs and words on the fly. He’s a musician, songwriter and DJ, therefore inherently better at this whole “word thing” than I am.

So today I got up to find an email from one of my semi-stalking indie friends had forwarded me a CL post from the “missed connections” area – about ME!! oh my!!

Pretty funny. I’m sure it will only be a matter of time before this “du” either finds that my whole life is in fact online(!) or he’ll get the nerve up to say hi to me at the next show. Anyway – I’m hoping to rack up more missed connection posts about me on CL. hahahaa :) I think I should win some “Greatest Luck EVER” Award from Craigslist. I can’t tell you how much I love that site. It’s *RANDOMLY* brought me oh so many good friends and oh so much joy and pleasure (and cold hard cash, which is *almost* as good as the pleasure, but not quite).

I got to go have lunch w/ Darren today – which was awesome. I’m psyched to finally sit down & chat w/ the boy – he’s doing such great things w/ his art – and it’s inspiring. I really haven’t seen him except for the one time my friend Trina & I met him at a life drawing class a couple months back. Then he referred a client to me, which I’ve been SOO grateful for cuz I absolutely love the client! So I owed him lunch, we exchanged some CDs, talked art & creativity – it was cool… left me hungry for more!! I need to be doing my art more/be more surrounded in art/go to more openings, etc. Music has consumed me, which is a very good thing, but I need to balance it out for my own creative growth.

I ran a few errands after that – VOTED!!! WAHOO! and am finally home to catch up on emails – and yes…. blog! Boy, I sure wish I could spill some of the juicier tidbits here….. but alas, please do your best to use your most creative and adventurous imagining. :) I’m a smiling happy girl.

I have no idea what I’m blogging about anymore.. I’m still listening to this crazy Jazzy/Rappy OutKast CD.. my friend Elana just called to see if I want to model for the Yoga Journal this weekend.. I gave her some friends names but told her I’d be her last resort. Sounds like fun… doesn’t she know I’m 350lbs? Guess Yoga Journal likes em big these days. YAY for big women!!!!

Volumptiously yours and yours and yours,
