I had this intense cinematic dream about anarchists and punks in Montreal. Then I dreamed I was in Homeland and we had a discussion about what we had just witnessed in the dream, and we decided that the character of Tito was definitely a hipster.
Woke up at 1pm.
Showered, went to the Goose Hollow office and got my package from mom. See's chocolates! Special St. Patty's ones. Had to eat breakfast before I allowed myself to consume them. But once I had some oatmeal, mmm good chocolate.
Then I wasted the rest of the day. I was going to go wheat pasting with Karen but she canceled. I cleaned my room. I bought toilet paper, some food, juice, and lasagna fixings.
Made a delicious lasagna.
I think there will be Munchkin tomorrow. Also productivity.

spring breaaak!
SPRING BREAK!!
The class was fairly empty, considering it was fun fun ink day. I quite liked some of what I did. More learning about Luther. Last night I accidentally left my sketchbook in the scanner at school. Thankfully it was right where I left it.
Illustration met at Martin's studio/gallery space. Madeline and I walked there together. Beautiful day. It is all sunny and stuff. Really tidy and perfect looking. He bought us coffee and doughnuts. What a nice guy. Those of us that had work to show, put it up one by one for review. A lot of people were at random stages. Some were still sketching. Morgaine had two beautiful paintings. They dug my Odd Owl work. Can't wait to get to drawing. Once I get some rest first though...
Bought two sketchpads of lightweight paper to print posters on. I'm going to cut them in half so the posters will be 12x18. Since I was near school, I carefully rode to school and plopped them in my flat file. Snagged a couple sheets to take home with me, so I can work to scale.
Went home. Ate food. Relaxed. Some of my classmates were getting a beer after class, but I declined. Gotta save my money. Art supplies and food. That is it. If I refuse 10 invitations to go out, then that will be the same cost as my new hard drive about. So I've refused two now (Karen asked a few days ago). Eight more!
Talked to mom and dad on the phone for a long while. Watched the first half of Beautiful Losers on Netflix instant watch.
Went to school for a Goose Hollow movie and dinner thing, that ended up being only JP, Robin, Jess, Diana and myself. Still, we had a lot of pizza and drinks and we watched Wet Hot American Summer, which was hilarious. Pretty much a modern Airplane! just set at a summer camp. That was cool.
It was a nice ride back home. Hurrah! Now sleep.

four by four
I love sleep.
Put my hair in braids so that when I take them out tomorrow morning, my hair will be super wavy and awesome.
Homeland had two presentations about Place. Travis showed a lot of Internet based artists, who do work with staging things as the Google van goes by, so when you do street view on Google Maps, you go past people sword fighting and all that. Kirsten did hers on street artists like Barry McGee and Margaret Killgallen. Pretty cool. Lunch came fast.
Enlarged my Odd Owl pieces on the photocopier to see how they will turn out. They turned out quite awesome. Not sure if they are the most eye catching from a distance, but they do look good.
We feebly talked about the book, and then got onto a tangent about place and manufacturing and migrant workers and suburbs and communities and lots of things. That was a productive conversation. Heather shared her snacks with our corner. I should bring snacks next time because I mooched a bit much.
Heather did a piece about this cliff in Port Townsend. Really beautiful stitch work, but it had some questions about the artist statement that accompanied it. It is this cliff that people throw things off of. Never heard of the cliff, but it was a cool piece. Another girl, who has a name I can't remember, did a print about the seasons. Each was from the same block which depicted evergreens and it called attention to how in many places the seasons are not like pictures books, and in fact don't change. There were four prints and under each had a different season hand written. Matt recorded audio from his walk and we listened to the trudge of the path he took. Nature is really noisy if you listen right. It was a good recording, and even though it wasn't a planned scenario, there was a great build up through it. Lana overlapped stock footage of Alaska and footage of her body and dubbed it with narration of her last trip to her parents place. It was also neat.
The final project in class is time based. We either have to affect a 4x4 foot place over an extended period of time, or research and report a community. I think I'll go the 4x4 route, as I have ideas already.
I scanned and tweaked and emailed Carmen the Odd Owl posters. Yoga was a lot of stretches. Nothing too harsh. I'll be sad to be without it during spring break.
Home! Took some reference photos of Katie. Not doing a picture of Katie, she is just a good model. Watched Six Feet Under. Sketched. Relaxed. Tomorrow is a short day. Whoo!

What a darn sluggish morning. But my computer is working beautifully. Love it.
We had a tiki themed first hour and a half of figure drawing. Morgan brought in props and put on music of the era. He told us to be Gauguin. He told me to be less De Kooning. Then for the second half of class we returned to World Lit Only By Fire and the model tied her hair up with a sash. I really don't like this model. She constantly shifts and only faces the front of the room. It is hard work to hold a pose, but she moves her foot and hand every minute it seems. Even I can do better than that. In the book we are to Martin Luther. Who knew he was so fascinating?
Silk screen had discussion and meeting with Christy. Christy talked about how I was being really productive and we talked about my Odd Owl project and where to get paper for it. It was a favorable review. It's good to be in good favors.
I chilled at student council for the free lunch. Mmm.
I left my sweater in the figure drawing room and during lunch there was a meeting in there, which became a class with what seemed like to break in between. Then another class used the room! But that class was composition and Antonia was in it and she showed up in the print studios and I dashed to get my sweater. In retrospect, I didn't have to dash.
Ran into BT. I got into the Bearfight anthology! I will be all published along other artists and stuff. It will be awesome. Whoo!
I spent silk screen sketching. I didn't have anything lined up to print, but I still loitered because I am far more productive there. And I got some real inspiration for the final Odd Owl poster. Checked out Beasts and Beasts 2 from the library. Very inspirational books. So much great art in them.
Scanned some stuff. Emailed some stuff. Then I escorted Karen to the hair salon. Mostly to hang out and talk. We made a pinky swear: if she starts stuffing her hair into a pony tail again, and thus putting this kink in her hair she can't get out, Karen will cut her hair chin length in a style full of pizazz. She always ties her hair back out of convenience and it destroys the structure of her hair, so it takes a lot of effort to undo that. So if I catch her in a pony tail outside of letter press, she will have to cut her hair in a fabulous way to keep her from that damaging pony tail style. Uhm. Yeah. Anyway.
Went home. Ate a tuna fish sandwich. Drew Odd Owl fliers. Watched Lost, episode of Six Feet Under, and the new FX show Justified with Timothy Olyphant. He plays a Marshall in a cool hat that kicks butt but has questionable morals. Solid enough first episode.
Sleep time!

what I wore - march 15 & 16
What I wore on the days of March 15th and 16th, 2010.Digital color over micron sketch.
reborn as the Heart of Gold
My computer had the same error this morning, and when it came to logging into Marvin, it froze. So I turned it off and went to school.
Chloe and I paced each other for most of the way to school, but she pulled ahead at the Everett stop light. The class size was about half what it usually was. Guess people didn't have their papers to turn in. Unfortunately, I was unable to get to the reading so I was totally lost in class. The trusty MFA's held up the non-Adam Arolla end of the conversation. Those two are real champs.
Oh, turns out Elizabeth, the lady I was going to help screen print on Friday (but she was too sick and had to cancel), was in my class the whole time. Who knew? Well, obviously I didn't know. But that was cool. Her project idea has changed, so I told her my offer still stands as long as she gives me a week notice.
So yeah, couldn't follow the discussion more than usual. But now I have two weeks to devote to the essay, and it is about art! So yay.
Oh, a few days ago I finally got around to replacing my bike seat. It feels so different...sturdy and stiff. Needs to be broken in. Still, did that all by myself. And the seat was really well secured.
After class, Leo and I planned to have our meeting with Adam. The meetings are just one on ones to determine what we are getting and so he can relate. But he never showed, even though we talked to him right as class ended. But I got to talk to Leo, the only illustration major in my class that I don't know that well. So that was cool. Still, sucked that Adam was a no show.
At 1pm, Karen picked me up outside the school. Today was our afternoon out! She swung by the bank and then it was off the the sprawl by the airport. Best Buy and Ikea meatballs awaited. I went to the computer department, made eye contact with a tech guy and before he could talk down to me I said "I need a serial ATA 2.5 inch hard drive with a preferred 7200 RPm". And he was all, "well they are right over here". I had three options: speed with medium size upgrade, huge size up grade but same speed, medium size upgrade with no speed. I opted for speed. My baby will need all it can get if she is to last for at least two more years. The size is actually equal to that of my failing external hard drive. I don't know why it (my hard drive) suddenly took a dive. Sucks, it should be a solid piece of equipment, not some lump that maybe you can get a file off of. Oh well.
So yeah, new hard drive. 7200RPM, 16mb cache, 320GB of space. Western Digital Black Scorpion. Mmm nice.
Over meatballs and cake, Karen and I had a long and great discussion about what we would do if were were teaching illustration, how important it is to have teachers tell you what is working and what just isn't, how great printmaking is, and just general catching up. We haven't had the most one on one time since school started. It was a really great meal. She bought a plant.
After Ikea, we stopped by Artist's Edge. Karen bought some clayboard for art projects. Then back to school. We chilled in her studio. Talked some more. Then it was the parting of ways for I had yoga and she had whatever she had to do.
It was an exceptionally nice day, so it seemed like some of the yoga attendees had vanished. The normally packed class had only 7 people. Still, it is nice to have a smaller group. A lot of twists and bends. Low lunge count, which makes me happy.
Clear ride home. Backed up the last of my music. Started my laundry and then it was computer go time. Removed the battery. Removed the screws. Pulled out the hard drive. Took out more screws. Put the new hard drive into the old hard drive holding thingie. Screwed that in. Turned computer on. Put in re-installation software. And it was smooth sailing. Vista booted up perfectly fine. Got it back on the Internet with some help from Katie. Actually, Katie's help has been huge. The fact that she loaned me space on her computer for my files and helped me painstakingly transfer them USB by USB. Such a great girl.
The only holes right now are some of the drivers and settings. I'll get that sorted out. Also I am missing the Microsoft Office Suite. So I can't open Word. That needs to get resolved pretty quick.
But all in all, I did it! I got new hardware installed with my own two hands, put everything back in order, and it is so insanely fast. Go me!
My two accounts are now Marvin and Arthur Dent. Arthur is the back up admin, which I shouldn't need for years.

the lesser of two fails
Blogging now so that I have no worries about it later in the night.
Totally failed at getting a jump on the day.
Because my computer failed. It turned on with an error saying there was no hard drive, and so I did the whole boot thing that I had no choice in the matter of doing. I didn't want to restart the computer from an iffy screen just in case something was wrong. It revived itself and everything seemed fine, but I know that my hard drive is obviously on the way out. I am taking preemptive matters and spent the day backing up. I slowly on USB sticks transferred files from my computer to Katie's. Took hours. I'm not even done yet. It sucks. Tomorrow, in between class and yoga, I plan to go to Best Buy and replace the hard drive. Once everything is backed up, I will replace the hard drive and reboot.
Bleh.
But it is working for now. I'm just expecting it to stop working every time I turn it off and on.
Pasta, cookies, oatmeal. Slacking off way too bad on the essay. I'm just not into this line of thinking. And the reading is impossible for me to wrap my brain around. Just not mentally into it. Oh well. Not like I have a choice. Well I have a choice, but that choice is failing. I'll take failing just a little less...

I hate when I have a good working rhythm and how, as much as I would like to stay up working, I know I should sleep just to try to keep a rhythm.
And now it is daylight savings, so it is actually 4:22am. Dang.
Another day of questing for cookies. The locater said REI and Safeway were stake out places for Girl Scouts, but neither had those little ladies of the thin mint and Samoa. Trader Joe's however had a nice lady and her cute daughter and a while pile of thing mints. I did some shopping first and then it was cookie time! Five boxes should last me a couple months. Just need to forget they are sitting in my freezer all delicious like. Thanks to Chelsey for the tip off that they might be there. Hurrah!
I have three accounts on my computer: two administrator and one guest. I have a backup admin in case something bad happens to the main account that I work off of. It is good to have a second one so that you can work on the other without having to go through any permission popups because the account is low ranking. Anyway, my main account is Trillian and the secondary is Marvin. Trillian had this glitch with the vista anti virus and it refused to open anything in case it was a virus, then it just seized up when an update was installed and refused to even to do desktop. Totally useless. So I went into Marvin, which was thankfully unaffected, and took all the picture, video, word, and other files from Trillian and put them onto this account. I installed Firefox and my instant messenger and lost all my Internet bookmarks in the change, but things are running a lot smoother. There are some last clearing of files I need to do, but soon I will delete Trillian all together. Hopefully removing that diseased limb off my computer will make it run even smoother. My next admin will be Arthur. I really need to reboot all together, unfortunately my external hard drive is also suffering connectivity issues. Bleeeh.
Watched Inglorious Basterds and worked on my Odd Owl posters. I am working on them at one half scale. They will be 11x17 promotional fliers, so I'm drawing at 5 1/2x8 1/2. Just straight micron pen over a sketch. I'll be doing a series, so they will all be rendered the same way. They two I am working on tonight are a match set. Each one has the same band name placement and features an owl holding a band member as it flies away. I am really liking them and look forward to enlarging them to see how they hold up.
Time to sleep. I'll set my alarm so that I don't pass out till 2pm. Reading and essay writing tomorrow. Bwwah.
