Gee golly.


It’s weird to think about...


On the positive..I’m getting really good at my job.
I’m not going to dive into the negatives..cause..I don’t want too.




Cheers to you.
Cheers to me.
Cheers to whatever may be.
Maybe.
Just kidding. Gotta let be.be. Indeed.

It’s nine am. I’m sipping a glass of wine.
I woke up at six am. Willa was whimpering.
I thought to myself. Ya..So..If I woke up at nine..three hours later it would noon..an appropriate time for glass of wine. Not. Alot..just a diddie. So. I justified my glass of wine as a breakfast component this morning.

Funny true story..several months ago I was online..and a website pops up..it’s a..no lie..Ancient Chinese porn website..I write porn because it was incredibly graphic, interesting, and gave my puter a lot of virus..then my puter crashes completely. After my computer has enough strength and space to work..Lil Miss Willa-Nilla D gnawed my power chord. Urgh. Just in time for some fools to steal my phone at work. No communication is nice for a hand full of days..then I start thinking about all the things I want to say. Want to do. All online. I’m starting to fulfill my online fantasies this morning before work.

I will finish this post with a poem..

Whatever which way
May i. May.June.July
a certain way.

i want to play everyday.
do whatever i want that day.
Moment by moment
i want to praise my way.
Yay.

.Willa Nilla D.



A month ago i was working at the studio during the evening and i heard little cat whimpers from a "dead space" in the warehouse. i tried to find the kitten.but.couldn't.

..jump.skip.high fiver in the air and two days later i finally found the kitten in a gutter like area under a broken freight elevator. i rolled around in a dead mouse for three hours until i noticed the dead mouse and then a half an hour later grabbed the kitten by the neck.

I named her Willa-Nilla D.

she makes me happy.

Sometimes..i just want to hang out with my buddies.eat cupcakes.drink tea.with gin. and watching the tree limbs sway..but..mostly i just want to work. while eating cupcakes and drinking gin.

This is my first year out.official year. of school. (i was a ceramic tech at a small college in the hills of West Virginia for a year). It think about how i spend my time..and..what i am working on..and..why.

i feel like i can't just work to work. make a mug for the gee golly thrill..like..i have to do something..bigger. I've really been trying to think about something larger then the making. but. i have been making just for the love of making.

i never want to loose my love of making.




NOTE..
MY BOSS MAN TALKED TO ME ABOUT MONEY THAT DAY. MONEY AND FUTURE DIDDIES. YA. FREAK ME OUT. I'M ABLE TO LIVE.BY.LIVING IN THE MOMENT. I TRY NOT TO THINK ABOUT THE FUTURE.FAR.FUTURE. BECAUSE THE FUTURE IS NOW.WHEN YOU THINK ABOUT IT. SO. WHEN I JUST FOCUS. I AM A LOT HAPPIER.

I DON'T LIKE THINKING ABOUT HYPOTHETICAL SITUATIONS. TOO MUCH.

.Egon.

I hear birds chirping.

I'm listening to the tunes of Laura Veirs.

I see the bare limbs

of a chestnut tree

and

the spicky spore nut diddies

that hang slightly below.

Today will be a good day.

i'll make it that way.

Judith Schaechter..She's a real filly philly..

She was interviewed in for the February/March American Craft Magazine...she's awesome..she's up there with Ani D. for female awesome.ness..

"My new thing right now is I think that the whole craft identity crisis is a projection from art. It's ART that has the identity crisis. Craft is fine."
