Dawn of the Dead Tired

Seven Brides For Seven Brothers and Calamity Jane! Howard Keel singing is everything!

Then Singing in the Rain and Anchors Away

Hmm, that sounds interesting. I'll add it to my list. I haven't ventured out of the fiction aisle in well what year is this?

Hope and joy, that is the way!

Wow!! That is beautify and an amazing accomplishment! What is the final size? My biggest cross stitch was only 18,424 stitches and I thought that was a lot.

Drypoint print - black ink on paper. Image is half a woman's face and half a skull profile. There are 2 heavy lines between them and it says "I Am Torn" at the bottom.

There is much I could say about 2025, but want to end the year on a positive note. I made a lot of art this year! So much printmaking & pieces I am really proud of. I learned several new techniques (my favorite thing) & have pieces in an upcoming gallery show.

Be safe tonight and Happy New Year!

I know I've read Galapagos and probably have it in one of my many bookcases, but I don't remember the story at all. Maybe I can squeeze some Vonnegut rereads into the mix of books I've got lined up.

oh man, that was over 30 years ago! I think the cover was blue? Maybe Galapagos or Breakfast of Champions as his name was in blue at the top. Either way, I was able to recognize the part of the book that was sticking out of the bag.

Years ago, on 1st day of a painting class, saw a guy with a Kurt Vonnegut book sticking out of his small guatemalan bag & I thought "He will be my friend". We became roommates (platonic), I vacationed w/ his brother & gf, worked for his dad, and his sister was my maid of honor. My California family.

and the Cracked Pepper and Olive Oil triscuits are really just crack

can.not.stop.eating.them

oh man, just reading that has tested my blood pressure meds! I'm so sorry.

I should make a hotkey for #adoptionsucks

I'm sorry. I am in the "I have no family" club too. #adoptionsucks

Oh I just finished this last week - I loved it!! Might be one of my fav @theauthorguy.bsky.social books 📕❤️

Poor baby! Wrap those pills in extra yummy treats

Linocut print of Dawn Davenport from John Water's Female Trouble. Image is black and white portrait of woman with curlers in her hair and a scarf over her head and wearing a striped shirt.

Dawn Davenport Linocut print I made a couple months ago. She did not get her cha-cha heels.

Merry Christmas! I am hoping to find a copy of your latest book under my tree tomorrow 📕🎄

That was such a fun read, can't wait to see the movie!

"situation" 🤣

Yes! Strong family resemblances always blew my mind! I waited so long to have kids that would look like me so I could share in that. Of course neither of my kids really look like me. 😭🥚

I will use my taser on you.

oh the last bite must always be the best bite!

Hey @djolder.bsky.social , I just finished reading The Lonely Traveler is Home and it ruined my makeup and diluted the soup I was having for lunch. Although the extra salt helped.

I don't know, that one just hit my heart right today. Thank you.

I'm so sorry. Hugs to you all

Oh sweet girl... 💔 I'm so sorry

Happy birthday!!

I'm so sorry Aidan.

They say unicorns bow to virgin maidens, but they don’t say what happens after they kneel. They don’t say what the horn is for. They say they are gentle, but only in the way a trap is gentle when it waits.

I am still haunted by this poem, "The Myth Was Never The Unicorn," written by one of the teens who participated in the creative writing program at the museum this summer. A reminder that girls are always aware.

Read the full piece and listen to the author recite it: journey75.org/2025/the-myt...

okay, it looks like the Santa Nella location off the 5 is still open. Sorry about the loss of the coastal location on your drive.

Wait.. what?? Andersen's Pea Soup closed??!!! I'm driving from Sacramento to San Diego in a week and I had plans 😥
