Three notable text messages I've received in the last few days:
Witty fell in toilet!
"stop drop and roll don't work in hell"
Today I met an alien who said he wants to meet you at midnight down by the blue swamp lands, so that he can hold five and two fingered hands.

I'm suffering from this today fo shizzle:
Palilalia is the repetition or echoing of one's own spoken words,[1] and may sound like stuttering. It is a complex tic, like echolalia and coprolalia;[2] all can be symptoms of Tourette syndrome[3] or autism.[4]
Palilalia comes from the Greek πάλιν (pálin) meaning "again"[5] and λαλιά (laliá) meaning "speech"[6] (from the verb λαλείν (laleín) meaning "to talk").
Thankfully I don't also have syphilis.

It's super bustle time here at the old homestead. I have deadlines creeping up my spleen and giving even my big toe a headache. It has been oh so necessary to take a break from all this editing, grant writing, planning, producing, cooking, cleaning, making, working and training to spend blips of time in the backyard jungle sopping up dusky sun.

Found this neat project by Julie Cloutier. Durational drawings measuring the time she spent doing nothing in one day. Seriously up my alley.

An upcoming project called Sleeping with Strangers is scheduled to take place on July 31st, in the year 2010 from 8pm to 8am on the 3rd floor of Pioneer Place mall.
In addition to collective sleep, there will be endless rounds of storytelling - personal stories we love to tell or never have before - midnight snacks, secret handshakes, and maybe even a hootenany! I'll be videotaping the event and eventually posting it on this very site.
As added awesomeness, birthday cake will be plated and devoured tocelebrate creative mammal and comrade, Gary Wiseman's birthday. Please take a moment to check out PLACE, a participatory summer project put together on behalf of Gary Wiseman and Gabe Flores.
If you are interested in joining us, please contact me HERE.
