keep me warm, keep me warm, keep me warm
while avoiding filing taxes, cleaning one's room, and other chores:
this and other work, by kris chau
i look at each of these images about twice a month or so:
is it weird to have a crush on a mythological figure?
anyway.... time for paperworkk....

We must go forward, not backward. Upward, not forward. And always twirling, twirling, twirling
vernal equinox
i visited a magical wonderland
participated in a new myth
laughed loudly with beautiful people
got my first sunburn since miami
watched the cheshire cat grin of the moon grow sweetly
planted persimmon tomatoes and peach tomatoes, among a handful of other heirloom varieties, turkish orange eggplants and pink long tung and rosa bianca fairy-plum eggplants, ground cherries, hollyhock, nasturtiums, black chilies, 5-color hot peppers, and more for future visions of wonder and tasty delights...
got bit, hard, by one of my favorite cats...
had awkward moments and twin moments of wonder
drank champagne and ate silky-delicious tahini-stuffed cabbage and other succulent treats...
listened to dolly, lucinda, and iris
worried about my giant molar cavity
decided to try not to make major decisions impulsively, at least for awhile.
it was a good weekend.

in new york missing baltimore
story of my life, missing people in other places. i'm lucky, though. all the beautiful people in all the wonderful places.... anyway, some baltimore in your face:
future islands at floristree during last year's transmodern festival
beach house at the zodiac
(i like this video because its beach house at the zodiac, and i love beach house and the zodiac both so much, and it was valentine's day or real close to it and i was sick but i went anyway and i stood by the door, leaning on the wizard who stands there, and i spaced out watching clamshells breathe bubbles up to the cieling. but if you want to hear + see beach house in a better quality way, look at this.)
part one
and part two of the missoula oblongata's play adaptation of Tom and Jerry during the annex theater's incredible Hanna Barbera Cartoon Play Festival. (also check out this video of the space ghost play. awesome.)
i spy my friends getting down! what cheer! brigade (from providence) playing at whartscape 09 (do yr own search for more whartscape info- there's no central page for it, but here's wham city's page which has so much information about so many things on it, that it might make your head spin)... i missed this performance, i had to work my last day at my stupid job that got in the way of my life all the time! i didnt know it was my last day there (i thought i had another week) or i would have bailed for this. i spent most of whartscape days painting faces + arms and legs and watching so many great bands that it seems like a dream. (fancy dress friday at the baltimore museum of art was surreal. so many awesome performances...)
man i am nostalgic. i also miss laying around after late nights, with my lovely friends on the couches + mattresses in our living room, drinking hot toddy's or bloody mary's and watching feel-good movies all day and into the night. and i miss when i helped my friend, antoinette suiter, put these stages together (the Theopticon, for artscape 09
which, when looked at through the viewer,
played with your brain and combined the two stage images into one bizarro image.
i also performed a bunch, including with my favorite april camlin in the world:
stefani levin's 'things to put on your face' booth
i could go on all day. i miss that charming city.
but its pouring rain and its dark even though its not even 4pm yet and maybe that's enough revling nostalgia, and i should get some things together for tomorrow. we're doing a blessing for my cousin, tarissa, who is turning 18.
love, jkj

skin
my skin has been red and blotchy all winter. i used to have radiant skin and i never thought about it much. now, its sensitive. its acting up. and i don't know how to deal with it. i exfoliated this morning and its been stinging all day. i used to exfoliate like a wild beast to no ill effect. i suppose i'll be more gentle from now on.
anyway, i went into Lush today and got some luscious things. i'm off to take a bombed out bath and put on a blueberry calming mask, and hope for a fresh face tomorrow.
love

planting by the moon
march 15 will be the newest new moon so far.
i hope that planting seeds during the new moon and waxing moon will yield larger melons than my last ones:
