tuesday… i think

I'm battered and bruised! Not from the trip, mind. I tripped over a rather large bentwood rocking chair earlier, after contriving a route behind it to adjust the window opening. (It's a recent addition to the apartment so I suppose I'm not used to it being there yet) The TRIP! A whirlwind: Rochester, NY for… Continue reading tuesday… i think

away

i am abroad. This keyboard is awfully different to a US one. I will be away until Jan 9th, so if you've been looking for me, that's why I haven't been findable.

Sunday, winter.

A wet and dreary outlook, weather-wise, but a fine Sunday. Wintermarket came off very well from the looks of it (a wonderful project I've lately become involved with, as a designer). Ben and I had a lovely dinner and visit with a friend in Manhattan tonight. On our walk between downtown and Union Square, I… Continue reading Sunday, winter.

Hark– hail!

Cold stinging pellets are falling against my windows this morning. Last night I was visited by some of the most intense, vivid and disturbing nightmares I've had in a very long time. (Not disturbing in any revelatory sense; just pure nonsensical surrealism that the subconscious mind so excels at, when it so chooses) Vivid in… Continue reading Hark– hail!

Heading back to Europe for a spell soon! Amsterdam will be our home base, again, with visits to friends in Munster, Germany again, and then... Paris! I've not yet been there, so that will be very exciting. We will have opportunities to see some Brooklynites in Paris, as well. On the arts fron: Etsy is… Continue reading brevity

December Third notes

His name was Pi, and he's been with me for a long time, as fish go. Years. His empty tank is still bubbling away with the filter… Continue reading December Third notes

bootleggers in Blighty

electrofork bootleg!Forwarded to me from the Smokewagon boys (for whom this poster was designed, along with Rock City Crimewave): what looks to be a vinyl messenger bag adorned with my artwork! I'd love to find out where this is; all I was told is that it was taken in London. It's too bad they squashed… Continue reading bootleggers in Blighty

jewelry!

45 Etsians now calling electrofork a favorite, and I can't keep enough necklaces in stock to get past a single page of listed items! (not a complaint.) So, I have loads of new materials on the way and will be creating more necklaces, plus earrings (all sterling) as well as cufflinks (sterling and silverplate). Whoo… Continue reading jewelry!

Last night I had a couple zoomin' brisk bike rides along 5th avenue- to and from TL's treehouse. Nice! As of this evening, 27 people call my Etsy shop a favorite- also nice! Two more necklaces sold over the weekend.So far November in the city has been brisk, but friendly. Smells of autumn abound. The… Continue reading november
