Drive-By Press

Today Drive-By Press lectured in my printmaking class. Beyond epic. Wanted to go home and start working almost instantaneously. Realized how much the printmaking world is a social, communal kind of thing. Freaked me out because I'm usually the loner working neurotically by myself in my room at the last minute.
I want to do this. I'm gonna do this. Clean my shit up, have a working space, and get to it. Work hard, be kind, be genuine.
Also meet a nice, handsome, creative midwestern man with a wicked sense of humor and a mustache.
Also, be metal. Like Dennis McNett. Inspirationally-intimidatingly-badass work.



Also, do my global studies homework. I guess. Meh.

Last Calvin and Hobbes.

Woke up this morning with an incredible feeling of sickness. Felt like I was drowning in my own spit, gross, I know. On top of that I had heartburn like a motha' and couldn't believe how much I'd kill for some pepto bismol. What a stupid name. Then I got to thinking about all of the medicines I don't have that my mom definitely would have. How does she always have everything? It must be a mom thing. Then I thought I should call my mom to see how she's doing. I haven't. I will.
Back to original topic. Eyes were/are swollen. Skin's greasy as fuck. Everyone else is asleep, and I would love to be. So what the fuck is my problem?
You are hungover, Jessica. And way to jump the fuck around with narrative perspective.
Tequila's a brutal thing. Totally fucks up my ability to dominate in Mario Party. Still think I was dealt a shitty/rigged controller.
Whatever. I always end up walking like, 10 miles without even knowing it when I'm in Isla Vista. The world is a blur at night, and all the half-naked girls in heels and drunken dub-step loving neanderthals come out to play. Guilty pleasure: I like dub-step. Maybe I'm too harsh. But when it's fucking anything below 60 degrees outside, I'm going to need a sweater. Whiskey-induced-warmth or not. Fuck I need some cough syrup.
Anyways, add to my hangover the feeling of running a marathon. All exercise benefits from stumbling around for a couple hours are cancelled out by the spicy spinach pizza, Morningstar buffalo wings and Pringles that I engorged myself upon before sleeping. No wonder I have indigestion.

Last night was fun. A total blur. I'll miss John and Becky when they're back in SF. As for right now, I just want to sleep.


Cool picture of the Rockefeller Center on December 5, 1933? Why, yes. Yes it is.

Like that strumming.

In a bluesy kind of mood. Thanks, Matthew.

Chopin.

Reminds me of sitting in the backseat of my dad's Lexus as a child. He treasured that car. Kept it immaculate. Always smelled like new, clean leather.

Chopin will always remind me of Burlingame and autumn in Northern California. I feel safe when I hear this song, and when I close my eyes I'm lost in memory.
