WEEKS/WEAKS

From boating to flying and crying and whining and dining. Northome, MN to Bemidji, to Minneapolis, to Phoenix, to Los Angeles, to San Diego, to San Marcos, to Carlsbad, to San Diego, to Hollywood, Los Angeles, CA. Held together by hours of contact with the lovely and wonderful ladies and families closest to me. Sarah and a Blister in the sun and my favorite Maddie Mug.

I CRY

laughing so hard right now at my sister/family

found this on my sis' facebook.

also, my dad began a string of emails between my family, in pursuit of organizing a summer camping trip. originally addressing us as the "former campers in the mist", dad sought to place us in a woodsy hostel, out of the rain. after a round of concerns about the communal sleeping arrangements, he offered a nudist-camp alternative to which my cousin Darren replied



known for his unbearably dry wit, his email address is literally "thebickersons@...com". thankfully, by the time the sun is bright enough to poach my family's sacred skin, i will have moved far away from wherever the bickersons join the "future campers in the nude"

NO MORE ART SCHOOL PLEASE

MORE OF THIS. IF YOU HAVENT BEEN OUT TO THE ARTY SHANTY PROJECTS YET, VALENTINE'S DAY IS YOUR LAST CHANCE.

(dammit this is the last time i spend six years paying for my education)

thought you should know

Every week a batch of emails come in from my dad.
Reminders to "keep my eye on the prize."

After clicking through a pile 20 deep that have been backed up since i started school a few weeks ago, i am reassured that although being slightly over-concerned, my dad is killing it. Links to design forums, snowboard realms, malakye, corolflot, print mag, how mag careers, various videos like prom dress rugby, some eyebrow craze, baby commercial outtakes, "my future", jobs falling. LIFE.

I asked that in order to determine the urgency or priority of his emails, that he write descriptions or messages in each email rather than just a link. Now I get a hint to the content with descriptive words such as "funny", "jobs", and "check this out". Sometimes these messages are more sentimental when really sad country music videos are sent to me and my sister. At least he has the internets to attempt filling his empty nest.

Looking at all of these emails thoroughly every week is trying, but i am so glad my dad gives a shit. And I think by now he truly understands my interests. In all of the online capacities of design, skateboarding, and snowboarding, he seen it.
