The Color of Your Energy

Erik Satie ate only white foods for a period of time.

I think of him when I think of surrealism and Picasso (Picasso designed costumes for Satie’s ballet); and when I think of those, I think of Post/Modernism. Also, when I think of devilish limits on consumption intake (er… outside of recycling, and being re-source wise, ehhh?) like diets… allergies… intolerance… the like. Why would you want to limit food intake purely on the basis of plain aesthetics? It’s not as if the pleasing salad of textures and tastes in Little Thai’s crispy vegetable noodle plate– CRISPY NOODLE! BROCCOLI! MUSHROOMS! BEANS! CHICKEN!– was any less delicious or tasty than an item exuding literary pureness– RICE! WHITE RADISH! WHITE CHOCOLATE! MARSHMALLOWS! COCONUT FLAKES!–

I’ve been INadvertently consuming ORANGE foods: aside from the rare free lunch, I’ve only eaten MAC ‘N CHEESE, ORANGES, and GOLDFISH (cracka-snacka) — !*

I’ve been getting into It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia (< I originally grossly misspelled this) and the comedy is having me LAWLFESTing and FOFLMAFO’ing (Falling On Floor Laughing ” ” “”; Charlie’s strange, nasal pitch has grown on me,

because I love him. We would be friends. And Danny Devito is on the show. Who doesn’t love Danny Devito? How dare you.

I feel like I am going to devour the rest of these orange fish nuggetz of Goldfish. And I’ll have a sea of crumbs crashing against my gumlines.

Wish Molly Moon’s would deliver.

Heeeeee yah

*this is a lie. I seem to recall devouring a banana, some biscotti, soup, and a burrito… sometime recently. Also, coffee doesn’t count, even if I have it for breakfast/lunch / and /dinner.

I love old people

I love old people

OMG, getting old. I’ve been thinking about this lately. I’ve noticed my cheeks gradually sinking, my laugh lines deepening with threat of imminent mortality… tender 21 my ass.

A beautiful autumn morning today in Seattle– crisp, sunny, UNwet… for once. I’m sure tomorrow will disappoint.

Today I received several pleasant e-mails, one of which notified me that I am being featured on Imagekind’s “Featured Artist” site. Which is super exciting! I’m the one on top, too! You don’t even have to scroll down!!!! ;asldkfja!!!

Rainn Wilson is coming to UW/Seattle and I’m attending his event on November 6th. He’s promoting his website, soulpancake.com. Followed by Q/A, and a $30 “hang out sess” with the Dwight Schrute IRL.He’s donating all proceeds to a charity of choice…it will be an entertaining evening, at the very least.

Fall quarter is always a punch in the gut. You either take the punch well because you’ve flexed, or it makes you vomit summer laziness all over your homework. I think I’ve flexed. I think.
