oh d town

I went to Dallas. There I attended graduation receptions. I ate expensive treats. One of the sweets was a green colored mousse in a dark chocolate cup. I ate many things. (on another note I am watching, over my shoulder, this made for TV movie and it is awful. The acting is terrible.)
I slack lined there with my brother. 
We visited the place where JFK was shot.
That is all for now.

I am going to write some personal thoughts that shouldn't be minded. I haven't posted in a while and wanted to.

I was trying to figure out how to get to this place where I am right now, typing a post. I didn't realize it was found by clicking dashboard. I clicked next blog and I found a blog of an artist.
I sometimes claim that title. Sometimes it seems that most art I come across is awful, mine included. I have wanted to make art because I have had valuable experiences with some examples of it, but I don't want to add to the junk. I guess that it is a process, I just have to keep at it. Sometimes I think what I make is good but it doesn't seem to be making any waves.

It is fairly cold here right now and I like it.
I am really getting into slacklining. It is almost mysterious or mystical. All it is, is walking on a line but it seems more some how. It seems like careful cooperation with gravity (I would say a dance but that metaphor seems have become trite). Maybe it is the slim, bouncy quality of the line that gives a sense of non-physical activity. Maybe it is the sense of accomplishment, the overcoming of a difficult task. Maybe it reminds me of the hippie mountain folk of my younger years.

hi

So I have been slacklining. It is fun I have a five foot piece of nylon webbing that I tie to two ropes and then stretch it between two trees. then I try to walk on it. the act is so nice so peaceful so enjoyable. although my feet get cold in the winter. I think i am going to go do that now

My friend
bought me a pair of vibram five fingers. they are intended to give one the bare foot experience with out the sometimes troublesome event of things like two inches of glass firmly cleaving the bottom of one's foot asunder. hasn't these sharp objects ever been to a wedding- what God has joined let no man put asunder- oh it says man not sharp thing. my bad
oh I love them
let no man me and my five fingers put asunder

Hi

It is interesting how in michigan there might be a foot or more of snow that will disappear in a day or to because the rain washes it away.
Some metaphor could be drawn from this about sin or bad things being washed away.
a day or two is a short amount of time
peach out

I enjoy the band Beirut. Stacy and I watched a movie last night. It was called the Terminal. It had tom hanks as a eastern european guy. "Victor" was stuck in the JFK terminal because his home country was at war and his visa was no longer valid. The events were totally implausible, Victor became fluent in english at light speed, the accents were dodgy, but it was pretty good. Victor was interested in a shameful lady who had consorts in the various cities that she traveled to as a flight attendant. Victor and this lady never did anything shameful nor did they get together, much to our delight. The movie must have been made a little while ago because everyone had pagers. 
Anyway, I am trying to learn to live the best I can instead of just scraping by or doing just what is needed. It sure is interesting.
In our garage there is this old heater that runs on kerosene. It looks kind of like a jet engine. It is very loud. 
It seems to me that very few people have regard for their hearing. A lot of people wear sunglasses when things are too bright. But I notice only a few who cover their ears at loud noises. I've worked in factories where the volume is very loud, there are free ear plugs and I am the only one I see wearing them. I think that it is because sunglasses are cool and ear plugs aren't. Some one needs to come out with a hot and hip line of ear plugs, rhinestone covered, flame covered, fake gold, skulls. The earplug could be attached to a little hand and this little hand would stick out of your ear. 

no one cares about cool when everyone's poor.
