Hmm, not actually sure if the Altima will survive the tow. I’ll call the Nissan mechanic tomorrow and get his advice. It’s not worth the haul if I wind up gutting the car doing it–it’s a tough little beast, it’s in good shape, it’s paid off, and I have high hopes of milking another 70k+ […]

So the tentative move date is looking like the last week of August, and it’s off to San Jose. My roommate, the esteemable Carlota, thinks she’ll want to stay in San Jose for a year. Then she had various plans and whatnot, but she needs the year away from old surroundings and old memories–which is […]
Bopped over to DA. Saw the sheep on the front page. It already sold last night, even at the inflated pre-con price, and the comments are full of people asking “But what happens next!? Does he get home?” Hmm. I get the automatic kneejerk you-can’t-do-that-just-because-its-popular twinge from the back of my brain, but the sheep […]
There’s something alive in the crawlspace over my bedroom. Possibly multiple somethings. Around one ‘o clock in the morning, when Ben and I have retired to bed, and he is draped across my torso, having twitchy-pawed cat dreams, this something starts moving directly overhead.

Leaving the old for a minute, in favor of the new, another little piece for Anthrocon! Lost Sheep
Another set of studio cleaning schtuff! We’ve actually got a couple of bits of Ursuline artistic history here–the very first acrylic on canvas (and I think the first acrylic ever–it’s that or another one I’ll be posting soon, memory has largely failed.) — a piece called “Primitive Unicorn.” And, of note to anybody who liked […]

Oh, holy crap. I forgot this was in there! A complete Weird Fruit painting, full size, and I hadn’t ever scanned it because there was this one little thing I wanted to fix. Bugger if I can remember what that was, so it’s goin’ up. Radishes of Paradise Methinks this one will go on e-bay […]
Okay, gang, you’ve been great about taking books and old prints off my hands, to try and clear space when I move. Now I’ve got another one for ya. Unfinished art. I have a LOT of it. Eight or nine years of painting leaves a notable detritus. Enough that it’s taking up a notable percentage […]
My gums feel like stale bread crusts. With nerve endings. My editor suggested that if I chewed on herbs, I could pretend they were crutons. Not as much help as it could have been…
