random life: Had a good time working with artists today. Commuted with my bicycle which is all decorated up for the parades and I just keep it like that all year round....and my bicycle helmet too....and everyone asked me why my bicycle helmet is like that so I like to spread the joy and spread the color when I drive in my rhinestone art car and wear my bike helmet and my hand painted shoes etc they told me today the world needs more of that the world needs more color and fun and playfulness and creativity and people experimenting and trying new things for fun... And my heart goes out to anyone who is being told that they can't do certain things that are just normal and I'm really grateful that I have the freedom to do the things that I did today and that I am doing right now
Follow your heart and soul if you want....that's what I love doing
i am listening to 8 hours of testimony that is BANNED on most media outlets. won't be sharing here just stating my ANGER about the DENIAL on certain things happening in the world. gaslighting and scapegoating is NASTY.
Elephantes in the room elefantes in the room elefantes in the room!!!! Beetlejuice Beetlejuice Beetlejuice!!!! Run Toto Run!!!
obsessed with this song. Beach House - Somewhere Tonight
thank you beach house and cut worms. two new to me bands i love the music of.
I'm learning a lot about the human psychology of certain situations some people just act as if everything is normal -even if it actually makes no sense but when anyone who disagrees is shame for an ostracized for it a majority of people seem to just then go along and think well it must be normal to go along with thisand everything makes sense and just go along with certain things other people sneak around and learn how to be fake other people fight out in the open and I guess other people just leave the whole situation and go somewhere else completely off grid there's at least four different choices
Enjoy life while you can your freedoms could be taken away very quickly if certain people decide so
what i think about "beach house: thank your lucky stars" album: this record is a masterpiece. i found this randomly at the public library and fell in love with it. every song hypnotizes me into a trance of inspiration. i love this album so much. every song is a gem. i am very picky about music and this one hooked me from the first listen. i play this over and over and over in my car. the melodies are so well crafted.
So grateful that we have so many nature trails in Seattle and that I can walk to a few of them.
Trust your instincts as a phrase that comes to mind right now for me
My favorite thing about my self-portraits when people appreciate them is that I know that I don't have to get permission from the photographer cuz I'm the model and the photographer so I give myself permission to share and publish etc I don't have to worry about somebody not wanting me to publish something because I give myself permission to publish me it's nice and simple that way!
So much life material to write poetry... secret code about ...accumulating big time
forgot how much i love these 2 songs: Butthole Surfers - Pepper, Beastie Boys - So What'Cha Want!
took 3200 photos recently and now backing up on my computer just in case!
I remember in an interview Tom Petty saying that when he would do a show sometimes he would end up when he went back to his hotel room just pacing around the room till 5:00 a.m. because he was so charged up on adrenaline from performing in front of the audience that's pretty intense
I get it now some people don't understand vibes... they don't understand intuitive feeling and vibes especially in music.... It's not about how complicated or simple a song is it's about the feeling and the vibe and sometimes you can just play three notes and it could be more powerful than the most complicated symphony you've ever heard.... Some good music is complicated some good music is simple and everything in between and vice versa.... which explains why some people don't like this sound and yet people like me love this dreamy sound... very inspired by Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers.... very inspired by Neil Young and crazy horse very inspired by beach house the band inspired by Mazzy Star, cowboy junkies and Jesse Sykes and Rafe Pearlman in so many other musicians and Tori Amos etc and Beck and so many other people....
I will always believe in the magic of synchronicity and Serendipity and spiritual awareness and psychic intuition etc. And the creative imagination and the power of thought and the power of how we're all connected and we all affect each other in positive and negative ways depending on how we use our energy I believe in energy and manifesting and all kinds of stuff and I feel like there's people out there promoting this view that dismisses all of what I just said and I am not going to let anyone dampen my spirit and take away my inspiration that comes from within and it comes from nature and what I would call a spiritual awareness. All the great songwriters that I love seem to channel their music from something beyond themselves and I would consider that kind of a spiritual thing that they're doing combining their own mind and imagination and body heart and soul with something beyond themselves invisible energy that's what I would call it and some of my best poems that I've ever written in my improvisational art is all kind of channeled from some kind of spiritual energy that's kind of how I feel about it and I'm going to learn how to get better at just ignoring anybody who laughs at that kind of statement because it's an inspired statement and I'm sticking with it it's from my heart and soul and I resonate with people who resonate with this
