Kyra likes the outdoors.

This weekend I work possibly harder than I did if I would have been at work. Period.
I'm in the process of making a dress for a friend. I was hell bent on getting this done this weekend so I could move on to other brewing projects. Instead, my utter lack of desire to be working on this right now caused a rift in time. Every moment never ending. This is where I cue the list of things that will be accomplished this week.

Dress will be completed.
Pocket watch will be returned to an ex-boyfriend in Texas from 10 years ago via the mail box.
Send Liza pictures.
Start up the horror movie festivities (its a mere 52 days until Halloween).
Order bugs for an art project.
Turn another year older.
Finish my little show about my trip to San Francisco.

I rustle up some other fun things probably.
But, for now....Something slightly fucked up.

Please click my face to purchase.

There we go.

Now im purged proper.

Not quite yet...

Almost there...

Making In

Out and about tonight after a frustrating work filled weekend.
Clearly i must purge it out with the mad tone.

Decisions...

Blank Stare

Todays episode is brought to you by the number


I have nothing positive to report. Ok, thats not true. Lots of things are going super rad. I got a little job as a french tutor, been hired to do costuming for a play, went to San Fransico to visit some friends, and had some enlightening conversations with my friend Cortney. Even with those good things (and maybe they were in part a catalist), I feel a combination of wanting to round house kick people in the face AND/OR curling up in a ball and crying until the year 2033. The two extremes have balance out to some unfamiliar apathy for me. I too am starting not to care so much.

I spent all last night staring out the window blankly. That about sums it all up.

Ill post more about my fun times in SF when im feeling a bit more....a bit more....
a bit more something.

Field Day

The season was upon us for my employers "Summer Event". It was like field day for adults. Open bar, ribs, and Stevie Wonder all hosted via the EdgeField. Food was good, WiFi was good, my co-workers are decent people, and Stevie was predictably rad.

I went crazy with the pictures. Got some sweet shots. I do love my camera.
Lookey-loo....
Please take time to notice how gossamer rays gleam down onto the Limo of Mr. Stevie Wonder. Like a funky miracle.

Toro Nagashi

Obon is the Japanese Buddhist holiday to honor the departed spirits of one's ancestors.

Toro Nagashi is the floating of paper lanterns on the last evening of Obon, to guide the spirits in their journey.
Here is a pictorial celebration of my journey to Obon through Toro Nagashi.

Release

One lantern was for my Grandma. No one loved me as much as she did.
One lantern was a farwell for a departing friend.
One lantern was for my partner in crime who was greatly missed.

Space Winter

"It gets cold in space this time of year, Captian".
"I have the perfect thing for just such occations, Scotty".
