this soundtrack to my govy life 2006 karaoke clip was in my head all morning.
micah on the mic. and al neun on the dancefloor. my first summer on mt. hood in oregon. (i used to have so much fun, then.) *this was a nightly occurance in the '3rd world' a-frame at high cascade snowboard camp!!

cheer up, sunny days will be back again soon.

today was a good day.

RESPECT

making my bed is always the right thing to do, especially now.
my dear grandmother compiled (salvaged, sewed, refined) this quilt for me last year!
i watched my 100 year old auntie marie stitch the perimeter for 6 hours straight one day. (i made her lunch, of course)
although she didnt inherit the seamstress skills of her mother, who sewed judy garland's childhood waredrobe, my grandma jackie is amazing!

*watch auntie marie and my grandma play cribbage in the videos to the right

NEVER LAND

watched this today for maybe the 150th time.
made me cry x3 ?! ... mainly because im extremely hungry for colored cream pies!

dreamings

ive been wishing, hard, on an escape to an isolated mountain town in utah, wyoming, or montana. yknow, real cowboy terrain. mean muggin me as i walk into their dark, musty bar. where giant hills protect the tiny, glistening town with a tangible history. where i could sit cozy up in the shadow. i would stay there long enough to dodge a few bar fights and avalanches. real mountains. a few days (years) just for me.
where i would really love to be is jackson hole, wyoming. that snowboarding trip from a few years back claimed the best trip of my life, aside from my first family trip to montana where i had my first mountain high.
this is maybe the only media i have that remains of that wyoming trip
. (im pretty sure i loved it more than she remembers it.)
and im about to give away a secret, im surely jinxing my dreams here when i show you where ive really wanted to be in my adult life (mostly because it yolks my professional life in design and my greatest love, snowboarding)

the first part of this video (made in 2005) features all the greats; motion graphics by Nemo Designs, the snowboarding-oriented house/workspace with gorgeous huskies!, a utah mountain with snow, travis parker, hula hoops, day glo, big black gettin worked, and a minnesota local (bjorn leines).
for a much less selfish approach to snowboarding, ive unofficially decided to hang it up for a few years until i finish school. just wishin all my chronies the beast out there. just know that my tears are amidst the wintery mix.

scare me

realising my work should be emphasizing rhythm.



high places cycling ever so eerily in the dark.

i listened to the radio from a circa 1980s pink alarm clock/radio during dinner tonight.

right now i am at work in the studio to the hum of an industrial air vent.

how transitional.

a look at THE LIFE

(QUICK I ONLY HAVE 10 MINUTES TO DO THIS)
my worksoon this should be very expressive of...the more is less aesthetic.

while working in class today, my friend and i were very hungry and i told her "im so hungry, that i think i am going to eat mayonnaise (on my sandwich)"
so i came home and i maybe took a little more than the "10 minute meal" theme that i had thought to have perfected. i tried to neglect the mayonnaise because i thought it contained partially hydrogenated oils, but alas it features eggs. almost worse. but a good start to the miniature, travel sized jar of it. 2" tall maybe. it tasted SO good with the sirracha and kale.
most definately a
i browsed my online world a good one.
