i am currently reading: When You Are Engulfed in Flames by David Sedaris
I'm m!ke. I live in Central Florida currently. I'm an artist. I've been drawing for 20 years, and painting for about six years. My focus is mainly on pop-art portraits and the occasional lowbrow piece, Zombies, Pin-ups, Robots, etc.
I enjoy music that isn't re-treading of all the same things I've heard before. I've seen quite a large number of films. My sense of humor is a broken record of pop-culture references and in-jokes.
When my woman and I aren't working or sleeping, we drink coffee, play Boggle, and sit around watching movies.
I mostly just orbit around the periphery, hoping to be exposed to new sights and sounds, and maybe make a cool friend or two.
Oh yeah, don't friend me unless you send a message saying "hello" first.
I've been taking some measurements. The good news is, I think all of our crap is going to fit into our new house. I'm just worried that you are too tall to fit. So, no more wearing high heels, ok? Thanks for the eggplant sandwiches.
I'm excited to hang out too :) And as far as why would I stay in O-town? I'm crazy in love...and that strange thing makes any place geographically perfect. And the distance from the man geographically hell. Well...a paradise sort of hell. With mangoes, and waves, and lava rock, you know...exactly how Dante described it......?? I think I'm lost.............picture??
its going, i'm just trying to scrape up sum dough so i can git something decent before i get a loan. most people selling cars don't take credit cards. assholes.
i can't believe someone even stole his headstone...no wait, i can. i'm assuming you and falon saw control...surprisingly good and now i'm waiting for amazon to deliver the book his wife wrote. for some reason i've been obsessed with the fall as well...it's that manchester thing i guess.
i'm keeping your profile up and listening to disorder over and over...one of the best joy division songs in my humble yet nerdy opinion.
denver hmmm? i'd love to go there, it feels quite up my alley - as long as they vote obama! hee. at any rate, i wish you and falon much luck in setting it all up...this economy is killing everyone and i'd love to follow one of bill maher's 'exit strategies"
in a nutshell though...yes, i would love to hang out one night soon! this has been a really, really crappy summer...i moved home with my parents for a while (marital drama, long story) and have been looking for a job for the past 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 weeks. this is not a solicitation for pity, more of an apology for losing touch. one day, i will no longer be an agorophobic weirdo.
