Car Trash Pizza 5 Mimi X Self-published There’s this nutty girl who works at Cakeshop and she prances around and punches me in the nuts and stomach. She doesn’t really talk all that much but one day she slid this comic over to me and walked away. Car Trash Pizza 5 is a collection of drawings, gags, and t-shirt slogans. It’s pretty funny.

A nice review:
Heartfelt, honest, stripped back, real, quirky...call it what you want, Anti-folk captures something that a lot of more 'mainstream' music has lost. And Dizzy Spells Martian is a wonderful example of this. Like fellow Anti-folkster, Kimya Dawson, her performance is gentle, personal and deeply touching. It's almost like we're seeing inside her head. Like me it seems that Dizzy would rather like to live in another world. A much nicer world. And she brings to life one that I'd be quite happy to live in forever and ever and ever...have a listen to Come Along With Us (on her My Space page) and I'll see you inside that tree.
PS: A special mention must go to Greg, sometime member of She's A Kamikaze Machine and full time Theatre Of The Absurd (he appears to have cancelled his My Space page so I can't give you a link), for his two wonderfully spirited guest slots (he played with Dizzy and Toby). If he reads this, Noel Coward sends his love and Quentin would like his chair back!

I'm okay. Things are coming together in some respects, but I've been very sick. We should chat soon, yes? I'm probably moving to Arizona with my fiance in the fall, but I'll be around most of the time before then. When are you free? I want to hear what you're up to musically.
how's the weather there? it suppose to be a rainy season here, but we have a lot of sunny days, too, and not humid! oh i love the wind from the river, it's so cool in the night. so ya i'm happy that you got my presents! hey i take the same chopstick every day to work. you know i take lunch box with me. okeeee
maybe we'll be some day. We wish so hard... But imagine how expensive it would be to get 8 round trip tickets to the States. How can it be so far and so innaccessible when people are so "close"... Bzzz Bzzz cheek kisses
