PP is good to me.

Love Compatibility of Libra with Gemini

Libra and Gemini are both air signs, and it may be hard for a Libra and a Gemini to keep each other grounded when you're both so busy dreaming and scheming. You both live in a world of ideas and ideals. The attraction between you is more mental than physical, and communication is important to both of you. Your Gemini will stimulate your creativity, and you'll teach him or her how to speak or write with grace. You may find yourself a lifelong playmate, lover and best friend in a Gemini. One thing's for sure, you'll always keep each other young at heart.

done and done.

today, i felt like i was going to die. the day hit about 3 o'clock, and i was ready to punch the next person who touched me or treated me like dirt (no thank you, f-ing snotty volunteer).

though is was just hours previously that i was successfully achieving a goal of winning over CSG! hahaha... reminding myself of that made me feel better.

also, i got to see the wonderful mollyL thursday! oh girl, i miss you. and i'm glad you read my blog (even though it's gibberish for the most part, haha).

right now, i'm full of delicious fish and asparagus and watching a film on Radiohead, and i feel ok again.

happy easter everybody. He Is Risen!

things to come

i hung out with my future roommates last night, and it's making me excited for that move-in date. me and amy get along super well, and zach is super fun to hang out with.... we bonded last night, haha! we're all chill people, so i see some good times ahead.

now we are starting the apartment search more officially. zach is going to NY, NY this week, and after he gets back we're really going to get on top of looking. i think Ukrainian Village is the neighborhood we are headed too, so watch out. anybody got a 3-bedroom near the blue line for rent??

GRAM has been lovely.

so i was delighted to find out that my job get's me into the Grand Rapids Art Museum for free! i new there were certain employee reciprocities, but you never really know who's going to let you in, in the end. but they let me have myself and a guest, and we had grand time. (forgive the pun)

i was pretty impressed by what they had up. the last time i had gone, they were between temporary exhibits, and it seemed like the only contemporary art there was a big piece in the lobby by Ellsworth Kelly, and i'm not the biggest fan of his. but their current (main) exhibition was Frank Stella's Moby Dick work. my favorite was the giant print and it's accompanying wood/copper plate:





























(Fountain, 1992)

it's massive. i wouldn't even know how to start planning a monster like this! it took Stella 15 years to complete. hats off to you, Frank.

smitten.

here's a text i received last night:

"spiders are singing in the salty breeze, spiders are filling out tax returns Spinning out webs of deductions and melodies on a private beach in Michigan"



lol.... kudos to Wilco also. love it.
