Vinny Ferraro


Check out this awesome article from Tricycle magazine featuring Vinny Ferraro. Coming from a similar background and childhood, I find Vinny to be an inspiration. I hope to someday be at a place in my recovery and practice to be able to give back like he does. And, you know, he's pretty damn easy on the eyes in my opinion. I'm just sayin'.

Dear 2010

Dear 2010,

No offense, but I'm glad you're almost over.
 I'm not saying that you have been all bad, that's not true.
There were quite a few things that happened this year that I wouldn't trade for anything.
 That being said, I won't be sad when you are gone.
 Sorry.
This year has been full of surprise and change.
 We have lived in three different states.
 My newborn has become a toddler and that has been so fun to watch.
 I have learned a lot about myself and what I want out of life.
 There has been much growth and learning but also so much stress and frustration. 
So, 2010, you are wearing out your welcome and it really is time to go.
I'm ready for a new year and new beginnings.
 I wanna open the door for 2011 and plant a big ole sloppy kiss on it.
 Come on in and stay awhile.
 I can't wait to see what you've got in store for us.

Nothing Ever Stays The Same, Nothing Ever Changes



I'm waiting. I've BEEN waiting. To be honest I can't remember a time when I wasn't. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting. Waiting for what? Is it for one thing or has the thing I've been waiting for changed over time? To be honest I don't think I ever really knew wtf  I was even waiting for. I just knew that I. was. waiting. How totally messed up is that? I'm tired of waiting. I don't think I'm gonna do it anymore.

Lena Hoschek Spring/Summer 2011















Generally I adore Lena Hoschek's design aesthetic. This collection was really just so, so for me. Don't get me wrong it doesn't suck or anything. I've just seen much better from her and honestly a lot of this collection is too familiar. My favorite things are the rubber leggings. Rawr.

He Said It's Just The End But It Feels Like The Beginning To Me

Things are changing. 
I can feel it in the wind and the rustling leaves, 
Quiet and strange. 
A deviation. 
A transmutation. 
A silent, but tenacious, revolution
Breathing beneath my skin.
 I am standing here waiting, 
Eager to evaporate and be swept away. 
There is nothing holding me to this place, 
No roots beneath my feet. 
Just as everything around me begins to melt away,
 I am already fading slowly,
 Into many tomorrows. 

i wrote this today.
