Max’s Birthday!!!!!!!!

last night while I was enjoying a nice quiet evening….I realized that today is Max’s Birthday! For those of you JUST coming to the scene..Max was my huge fibroid that was removed last year (had a partial hysterectomy). Anyhow – I’m counting my blessings and celebrating. Woke up very late this morning and decided that a celebration was in line…complete with a walk up to Corona Heights, a yummy salad for lunch (of course accompanied with a mimosa), a trim…then for dinner nice roasted chicken – the first “meal” cooked after my purging sesh. here at 36a. Feeling like the last year was filled with undoubtedly THEE BEST adventures ever…looking forward to more……!!

OLD SCHOOL M.O.B.

okay…part of my purging process (and being slightly OCD) is literally going through all my zip discs and erasing them…and what do I find? VINTAGE M.O.B./Mail Order Bride stuff. check it (uhem….read more here about M.O.B.)

so ahead of our game…the “intimacy” theme reigns during our Museum Pieces show at the DeYoung circa 1999  (a theme that came up for our A.A.N.A.B. project roughly 7yrs later)

the original M.O.B. logo that Jenifer illustrated back in ’95

and check out baby’s little stint of being a break-dancer when we were in North Carolina during our Tryon Residency (aka McColl Center for Visual Arts) circa 2002

landing and purge…

okay it’s been a over week since i’ve gotten back to 36a. realized I REALLY need to do some MAJOR cleansing. when I walked into my apartment I had such mixed feelings…a feeling of homesickness (for where I don’t know) and a feeling of MAJOR accomplishments – very mixed.
and being ebx – I thought I’d celebrate by getting rid of the old to welcome the new…I mean REALLY old. how I decided to do this was to scour every single morsel that lives within the walls of 36a. realizing that a) NOBODY uses VHS/slides anymore b) I only need 1 copy of catalogs, publishings and such that I was in and c) space is bliss. here are some pictures….who wouldda thought 36a could house so much. I have to say I’m pretty proud of myself for not having to rent a storage space considering I’ve been living in this apartment since ’96! I’ve included a little bit’o nostalgia…

artbusiness & zyzzyva

so I was wondering how the zyzzyva show went at Mina Dresden and low and behold I get to actually see how my piece looked (thanks AB) – my piece, “to change…”, is the second from the right and pictured below.

me, myself and Kamea..

SUPER DUPER RAD DROOOLER!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Kamea Lani, my great neice or rather grand neice….or….um err I dunno what the technical name maybe, but she’s the daughter of my eldest niece, Leanne. Been spending some fun time with her before I head back into reality. She’s super strong and kicks like a frog (thank god I don’t have a penis). The best thing is at 5 weeks…..thats a mere 1 month and 1 week, she’s already holding up her head and responding to both visual and aural queues….looks at you when you speak to her and follows you with her eyes when you walk around her. It was lovely celebrating my parents’ 50th Wedding Anniversary with 4 generations there.
