WHAT DID YOU SEE AMAZING OR TERRIBLE TODAY?
hi everyone, i decided to make a discussion about what we see everyday that was either amazing or terrible.it will be like a show and tell only without the show and you can include things like car wrecks or dead animals if you'd like :)
amazing- today i saw rain turn into snow before my eyes. the dropps seemed to start to fall in slow motion and then they became lighter in shade (or so it appeared) it diddnt actually "turn" into snow but im a romantic. anyways, the sidewalk was all wet so when the snowflakes fell it looked like they just disapeared. it was as if the world was swallowing each one hole. they diddnt form piles. the only evidence that each one existed was in my mind. i know that sounds cheezoid and all but i had a revelation about the moment. its like the birds in huxley's book "the island." the birds just go around to everyone all day saying "here and now boys, attention attention!" so that people will enjoy the moment they are living in. life is just moments. no past and no future. just right now and no matter what happens there is another moment waiting for you. its ok to dissapear into the sidewalk.
i also saw two pigeons indulging their stomaches on pile of puke. it wasnt terrible but i was a bit grossed out.

i had this dream the other night that i died. iv had these dreams before. in one dream i was eaten alive by wolves in my home. but this dream was more real. i was in a car with two people i dont know so well and the one was driving like a mad man all over this road covered in snow at night, i begged him to slow down but he wouldnt. then we went off this cliff i guess.. it was all dark and i felt my stomach hit the back of my throat as we fell. i prayed, i told the air in front of my face, "i love you" and prepared to die. the person drivnig just said "goodnight everyone" and the girl he was with said, "oh fuck" (but very quietly). we diddnt feel the crash, we just woke in a dark silance and waited for the darkness to clear into what we would now know of as death. apparently death looks alot like a burgerking/waitingroom/1980's coffee house. everyone there diddnt seem to mind that they were dead but i was frantically searching for one of those oiji board things to try and contact my mother and this friend of mine to tell them i was sorry and i diddnt want to die. i was so sad. i at one point contacted this person i really care about and he diddnt seem to mind that i was dead. noone cared but me and so i cried and cried becuase death was the biggest disapoinment in my life, and life too was over. i screamed at everyone saying "i love my family and my life, i need to paint and sing and none of you even wanted to life I WANT TO LIVE I WANTED TO LIVE!!!!" so then i prayed it was all a dream and i tried to make myself wake up if it was.... it worked. my alarmclock faded into the forground of my view and i was so happy to be alive. im still so very thankful to have my life back again.

I saw a man running with his dog (a husky I think) and his dog had a baby buggy attached to him, rolling behind like a Chinese foot taxi. This was pretty unique!

that is awesome!!!!!!!!!! i saw this dog the other day. it just looked like the shape pof a cupcake walking down the street. i mean it really looked like a cupcake!!! then it got up close and i cant even... there are no words to describe this thing. its hair was sticking strait up but was all knotty and that caused its face to alter and it was just amazing, ok? and then i got a look of its owners mug wich was just as crazy. they looked like they just got out from a tornado that had been spinning since 1976. it was amazing to the point that i made a stranger on the street follow the old man and his dog with me so that he could see these super crazy cartoon like creatures. i saw the man and his dog again the other day and they were still amazing.

We spotted a little sparrow dying in the middle of our loading dock driveway, sitting in his own poop. I know birds don't cry, but his quivering beak and his half shut eyes made him look like he was. We moved him to a shady spot out of the way, said a prayer that he go quickly, and in a couple minutes, he flopped over on to his side and passed.

I think so, too. The bird's expressions were eerily similar to those of one of my cats before succumbing to chronic kidney failure after losing all tolerance for twice daily subcutaneous fluid injections a few years ago.

Yesterday I arrived to the studio and found pieces of cut and shaved drywall everywhere....I thought '.....man I dont want to see THIS at all....and sure as shit am not going to clean this up.." But of course I did and all is fine here except for the mini showroom look of what used to be studios here a long long time ago.
I used to go to the salvation army on Milwaukee for a break. We used to meet on a particular sofa ( when that one sold we met on another) We arranged coffee tables and reading lamps around us like we owned the place....it was nice esp. in the wintertime.
