Every once in awhile I go through a phase were I just cant listen to anything with lyrics, just
sounds and noises, the sounds of life. My mind is able to form thoughts with images.
Speaking of images tonight I'm going to brave Hollywood on a Friday night and go to
Anne Fishbein's opening. The show was recommended by Pervical Press, a small press here in LA that publishes some pretty amazing works of art, fiction, poetry, nonfiction books around.I often order books from them.
I was supposed to do some camping this weekend but forgot that I have my tax appointment tomorrow. Wonder if this year I will owe? For the last two years I have owed and I find this sad as I feel that I never have money in my accounts and am in debt (just a little) so how is that I owe, I don't make that much money.But I think I tricked them this year,I own a house now so that means I get a big deduction , right? I hope..Don't make me start popping out kids just for a tax break..Damn that bush.The funniest thing was last year I actually got money back then a few months back I got a letter from the IRS that said I didnt pay any Social Security, which I thought was odd since it's a huge deduction from my check they automatically take out of my paycheck each week.So when I called, they said it reflects on my record that I paid it but that I never checked the box correctly that I did pay it, even though my record shows I do pay it..So now I owe them..Damn that Bush.Somebody please explain this too me, not that tax experts are reading this.But maybe since I have mentioned taxes and IRS a few times in this post then somewhere out there in computer land a red flag is going up on a secret file with my name on it..Damn bush and the IRS, nuts to you..
Another reason for not going camping.The Futureheads are playing tomorrow and I am going and dancing and singing at the top of my lungs.
Since I'm staying home this weekend I have a rather large to do list
- send packages
- clean out last two boxes of camera equipment in studio
- drop off art to be framed
- finish and frame piece for "I-am-8-bit" show in a few weeks..yikes!, if you look hard on the site you can see a past show of mine as well.See all the pretty people who didn't even look at what was hanging on the walls.
- clear out garden for new plants..Yah! the sun is back
- call roofing and sewer guy
- buy hammock
- pile all things into package for M.
Sunday will be the day the I have to defend my title.The trophy is up, unless I can defend.The annual pot luck picnic and Bocce Ball/Croquet Tournament..My friends will once again bow in awe of my skills.The trophy will go home with me or else my hands will be cut off in shame
if only I could post photos for all to see my 15 minutes of glory, that I will forever look back upon as one of the greatest moments in my life..
The idea has been launched..I was asked if I would liked to include myself into a group show, to raise money, to pay for credit card bills of in debt artist (that would be me). First I must prove all my credit card bills were charged up buying supplies for my photo fix, then I must create a piece of art credit card size ,as many as I want as I have a pretty good size bill.Nothing can be sold for over 50 bucks.so that a lot to create if I actually want to pay off the bill..what do you think, should I do this? Part of me is feeling yeah, I should do this pay off my bill seems ideal at this moment ..then part of me feels , is this wrong to do sell stuff to pay my credit card..do I have to tell the people buying it what I use the money for? Is it a moral or ethical question even? Worse, can I even create good enough work that someone would buy it so I could pay off the work and also I need the credit card to buy the supplies to even start making the work, thus making more charges on it...does any of this even make sense..
