Hopefully these will be parts of other projects, no sound in either one:





also, in the same vein as an earlier post (I think it had something to do with identity) here's a list of my fave songs. There are others that I like but I think these ones are ones I wouldn't want to exist without. The list is not quite done and some have yet to stand the test of time, but, for the most part... yes, favorites:

songs:

I will always love you (Dolly Parton)
train song (Vashti Bunyan)
babooshka (Kate Bush)
lay lady lay (Bob Dylan)
don’t be cruel (Elvis)
words of love (Buddy Holly)
mr. record man (Willie Nelson)
just a little (Brenda Lee)
MX missiles (Andrew Bird)
Here comes the sun again (M. Ward)
chain gang (Sam Cooke)
black jack david (Carter Family)
a well respected man (The Kinks)

goodmorning MilwaukeeChicago Morning

Chicago looked very beautiful from the bus this morning. I woke up for a minute to see the skyline in such subdued pink, grey, and blue. No black and grey sky. I wasn't unhappy to be arriving.

My sister made the sailboat collage, and I made the lady one and the painting (I did it with wet pastel chalk). I was here for her birthday party. It was pretty fun. I like how she matched the horizon lines and used an ugly picture of a clown. I never would have done that. She might be a genius.
