I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman

Apparently I'm not a very good blogger. It took me about ten minutes to figure out how to sign into this thing, it's been that long since I last posted.

Dudes, it has been a ridiculous fast-pased summer so far. Graduating and looking for a real-life job while trying not to freak about stupid things like loans and health insurance has taken up too much of my life. Besides all of that, I've been working hard to have a lot of fun before my few friends who are left in st. louie move too far away for too long. I've got to stock up on all the joy.

Obviously, the highlight of summer so far was visiting Snaily in Cali. I'm afraid I went too earlier in the summer though, now it seems like long ago... It was a very inspirational trip filled with lots of new sights and fun and singing and laughing and general friend-joy. I left inspired to start my newest painting which is also a sort of comic. I FINALLY started it um... two days ago but I'm so excited about it that I might actually finish soon.



In other news, I found fantastic fabric featuring a map of the world that I want to make a dress out of.



That's all for now. OH, has anyone heard Dennis Wilson's solo album? He is my favorite beach boy (admittedly, up until now only because he's clearly the most attractive and the only surfer in the bunch). I just read this fantastic review of it: http://www.buddyhead.com/2008/06/26/dennis-wilson-pacific-ocean-blue-reissued-finally/
and am anxious to own it.



I hope everyone's weekend is full of sangria and fireworks!
