these are what thoughts look like

This is a light installation at Coachella and I have to admit, my inner e-tard was quite  amused by this.

Mi-Chella and Lau-Chella at CoaCHELLA!

Man Man, best band I saw on Saturday... hands down! My love for them multiplied a ton!

Same light installation, different pattern... super coolio foolios!

that was my coachella experience in a nutshell: cool lights, friends, man man and frozen lemonade...

send my peace to your mother!

Plucking and Rolling

You’re not ripe
you’re as green as the
     spring leaves that
drift into sad browns
  in the fall.

But I want to pluck you
     anyway
and peel your green skin
revealing a milky fruit.
I’ll shower you in limes and salt.

I want to make emerald stripes on my white shorts
    rolling and bumping
  around in that delightful green moss.

It’s spring but you’re not
ready to savor the greens
   with me, and partake in high tea.

You’re too green and you’ll sit hoping,
waiting to turn a nice safe yellow.

But I still want you as green as you can be.

three's company too?

“Do I contradict myself?
Very well then I contradict myself,
(I am large, I contain multitudes.)”
-Walt Whitman

Today was a super eventful show! Audria came in to visit and that was lovely! She brought in some cool stuff
Check out her blog at http://audriabrumberg.blogspot.com/! She used to DJ from 6-10am on Mondays and she plays awesome 60's garage, power pop and tons of other stuff I wish I had on my computer...
She's also an incredibly talented artist and overall a nice person to know, so check out her very own blog people!!!

Then some cool random kids came up, Brian and Melanie, very nice of them to show up. Brian read me some of his erotic poetry he wrote in 10th grade and expressed their love for the 90's sitcome  Melrose Place. It was quite an enjoyable experience! (no not in that way...)
