Tiny Palpitation

you know that part on "benjamin button" where daisy and benjamin have moved in together into an empty apartment, with nothing but a mattress? ...and then they refer to those days as the best times of their lives?

thats basically how i feel right now. everyday i am filled with such appreciation of what has become. the weather has been sunny and brisk. justin and i have been busier than ever creating art. i have some how finally learned how to ignore things that really dont matter in the grand scheme of things.

i feel very content. maybe for the first time ever.

Alison

Alison

Elizabeth

Alison

Elizabeth

Harrell Fletcher: What makes something—a piece of art, a film, a book, a bowl of soup, a song, a walk—really good, in your subjective view? Maybe the question is, if you had a set of things that you considered good, like the list in the previous sentence, is there a quality that they share that makes you like them? Or is the goodness different in each case?
July: I think there are a few categories of cross-genre good, but here is my favorite: At first you hate it. And then suddenly you expand, you grow, and the book, the bowl of soup, the song, the walk, becomes a prized thing—the first example of your new, smarter self.

...from the miranda july interview in interview magazine

i am a really big miranda july fan.
if you are unfamiliar with her... you should go buy "no one belongs here more than you" right now... GO!

current inspiration from my desktop....

today is my friday, and i have almost completed one full week of work. sigh. its been a long week. its hard to readjust after sitting around for three weeks. its been good though, and tattooing has been extra fun. feeling a little short on inspiration and still overwhelmed by my to-do list, but hopefully afer this weekend things will fall together.

alright... im gonna try to get on some drawing...

2009-08-19T14:11:00.000-07:00

....and exhale....

i am very happy that everything is finally all done with. initially i felt a little sad, but, as the piles slowly fall into organization, i am starting to feel better, and in true alison fashion, am already seeking new projects.

new art stuff... of course...
maybe some more felt work?
translating line drawings into paintings... maybe a possible show with justin in the fall
adding justin to the tinypalp roster

getting financially organized. meeting with my accountant and such.
organizing my house.
finding my studio.

sigh... bought a bunch of art in kw.

some random images from my desktop.... its completely littered with stuff right now.... do you think its safe to say that your computer desktop is a direct representation of of your current state of affairs???

i am getting married in 13 days.

my work has been really stressful. co-worker drama. personal life drama that cant help but bleed over into the professional world. im really burned out from it. my job has become a completely toxic environment, i guess the honeymoon had to end sometime. the economy has finally started to have a dramatic effect on the tattoo industry and everyone is a little more on edge, bored, up eachothers asses forty plus hours a week. so i decided to cut back my hours. this week ill be there monday, and next week ill be there mon/tues. after the wedding i guess ill re-evaluate and decide whether or not i want to go back to my reg. schedule. maybe ill just work part time and be a full time wifey. i mean, they dont call it "houseWORK" for nothing.
its been really nice having the past two days off. ive spent the entire time cleaning and organizing, and as the piles disappear, my stress seems to lift. its nearly impossible to keep up with all the one off chores when you work 55 hrs a week. i managed to do the dishes and laundry and such, but our office is a hot mess, clutter, prints, books, projects, all piled as high as possible.....

anyway, i was just taking a little break, soaking up the a/c before returning to the gross, sticky, main interior of my apartment....

bridal shower tomorrow, and then dave and busters.

im bored. just killling a few mins before i head to the dog park.

i have now created over 301 and one posts. thats kind of impressive... maybe not, im pretty lazy about posting for large periods of time. im sure there are people who post 300 in a year or something.

anyway... my internet is back up. it was down for a week, and the internet at at the shop is complete crap, so im super happy.

i bought some new music....

m. ward - hold time

i havent been saving images to my desktop, and therefore, my sad, little, blog, has been short on them. heres an image by kore flatmo that justin made me save for him. im still kind of sick. my head feels all floaty, but the neti pot helps a lot.
im really unmotivated though.... and sleepy. i am really sick of being sick. i just want to be healthy for an extended period of time.

ive been organizing, as of late. i am trying to go "desktop-less", which is my version of "paper-less" and involves finding new venues via the interweb to store my information, vs. relying solely on the effectiveness of my laptop as a storage device.... even externals eventually crash.

i have slimmed my blog reading way down, and imported them all into google reader, so i dont have to worry about losing links. i have also been fastidiously saving my images to my i heart it account, which saves A LOT of space. i wish more of my friends would get heart accounts... hint, hint. i still have lots of files on my computer that i am slowly filtering through....

okay. tattoo time.

im in la guardia airport, ny. traveling makes me tired. traveling and cold weather. drinking lots of tasty beers and eating much food, also. i am on my way back to richmond from my impromptu trip to maine. my grandmother died last tuesday, so i caught a flight home thursday. i didnt have a particularly close relationship with my grandmother, but in retrospect, i really wish i did. i now recognize how selfless and caring she was, and she has inspired me to learn to be less judgmental.

a brief overview of my trip itinerary:

1130ish thursday: arrive in portland maine, cab over to borders, wait for amy to pick me up. drink coffee, start new, exciting drawing. see fifty-foot snowbank.
1230: head back to the dorms. stuff myself with free cafeteria food. soak up free internet. attempt to nap.
230: finally meet trisha. hang on her giant bed. drink dunkin donuts coffee.
500: head to gardiner. drop my stuff off at my brothers.
600: visiting hours at the funeral home. creepy open casket that i am not emotionally prepared to deal with. reconnect with many old faces.
8:00 back to bros. pizza and many many beers.

friday
1100: funeral. really amazing. so many good stories.... "nothings wrong"
1230: beers at the depot. the depot was a total sleezebar when i lived in gardiner a million years ago, so i was really excited to go there, and definitely feeling like a beer was necessary before heading to the family gathering. i was really disappointed to find that they had completely remodeled, and was bright, cute, and comfortable.
100: family gathering at my aunts. lots of funny stories and drunk family.
300: head out to amys mom farm in whitefield. played with baby cow, bert and kitty, the hog.
500: head back to portland. order really tasty food. lay around in dorm.
900: downtown portland. empire/whiteheart. beers. hanging with my cousin amanda. some dancing. suprising amount of cute people.
1230: sleep

saturday
1000: 158. fresh bagels. back to gardiner.
1100: devons basketball game.
1200: family time at bros. beers.
200: family dinner at longhorn. so many cheesefries.
500: back to portland. lazy night. internet.

sunday
800: head to airport, find out flight is cancelled. hang in airport til 1130 flight. overcharged for wireless internet service.

...................... im ready to be home. eat tasty food with j. hang with my doggies.
i uploaded a ton of photos to my flickr, and will add more later.

2009-01-16T17:25:00.001-08:00

i just want to take a minute and remind myself of how amazing it is to be working in a girl-friendly, fire cracker free/drama free shop. the change has had such an incredible effect on me in so many ways....

i have been tattooing a ton, and can already recognize vast improvements in my work and my confidence level.
i have been drawing and painting everyday.
i have been laughing a lot, and not crying at all.

this place makes me feel wanted and valued, and thats awesome... and its what i deserve.

in other news, the piercing apprentice, and one of my all time favs, liza, pierced my nose. it hurts a little, and it makes me want to sneeze a lot.
i also bought hand-carved turquoise 0 gauge hanging earrings. they are amazing.

i watched the documentary "stolen" from netflix and it was pretty interesting. it was about the art robbery at the isabella gardner museum in boston. also the jardowosky documentary.... i feel like i need to watch that 50 more times to fully absorb it though.

2009-01-12T14:40:00.000-08:00

i bought some stuff on etsy. im rill 'cited.

2009-01-09T13:01:00.000-08:00

rill quick.

i now have internets at my house! i am very excited... mostly because now i can make thorough use of my netflix "watch instant" option. this weekend is busy for me, and i mostly want to stay inside and draw/paint.
i finished my first watercolor painting yesterday. its a really fast process, but definitely didnt come out as tightly executed as i wouldve liked.
i got a "grown-up" purse from urban, which i refer to as such because its the first purse ive ever owned that cost me more than $20.
i have to work at urban tonight, and i am feeling super lazy. hopefully it will be busy and there will be fun people.
i shouldnt have eaten that choco-pudding cup. fake sugar tastes like crack.

ok. bye

i heart 2009

2009-01-05T12:23:00.000-08:00

so the new year is starting off swimmingly.

ok.bye

i have been so completely exhausted as of late. working two jobs is really taking a toll on me, particularly working at urban outfitters, at the mall, during the holiday craziness.

im not really sure what my schedule will be after the holidays, i know a lot of people are trying to get scheduled, so ill try to get on that. i want to take a nap. i am passed the point of caffeine helping anymore.... and i have to be at the mall at 8am tomorrow morning. normally, i am a total xmas person..... blah-humbug.

started working part time at urban outfitters... i am official professional t-shirt folder.
justin left red dragon.
j and i got electric toothbrushes... they tickle.
netflix finally released the "watch instantly" option for macs.
watched "el topo"
watched the new david lynch documentary "lynch" (which is completely fucking amazing, and a beautiful tribute to him)
dropped off stuff to "elderly friends of virginia" for gift baskets, and was matched with my new elder friend alma, who im super stoked to start hanging out with!

I really want to take part in a CSA next year... (community supported agriculture) they send you fresh veggies every week, and its a surprise package. you dont know exactly what you are getting, or how much of it you are getting. it would be cool to start eating weird veggies and learning to cook new things. maybe that can be one of my resolutions. the farm im looking at costs $575 dollars, and sends food from may til the end of september, all organic. they also have fruit, and fresh herbs. and from what ive read its hard to make it through all the food.

vintage decorating books

my new bed (which is actually in chocolate, but they only had the white posted online)

*side note: the mattress sits directly on slats and the frame doesnt require a box spring, it is the most comfortable thing ever. i am a complete insomniac, and since i started sleeping on this bed i have been sleeping so well. i dont think i can ever go back to a regular bed!

i heart it

2008-11-18T10:44:00.000-08:00

so i broke down and joinedi heart it its basically like ffffound but less exclusive, and would actually give me an account.... im still feeling pretty bitter that i have yet to be able to receive a ffffound account in almost a year. i heart it is extra cutesy though, so it should be fun. it basically works like delicious but it bookmarks images instead of just pages. also it keeps your hard drive free and clear of billions of image downloads (seriously, mine is out of control)
hopefully all my friends/minions/fans/fellow bloggers will join because i want to see what other people are looking at.

"While we are on the subject of looking ahead, I have to warn you about a particularly angry full moon that will come up next month, just prior to the holidays, December 12. This full moon will fall in Gemini and light your house of career, but there are problems. This full moon will be in hard angle to Mars, Uranus, Saturn, and the Sun. That is a lot of planetary activity, and I will, of course, talk about it next month. It will bring a conclusion to something having to do with your career. It could be someone is leaving, and it causes shock waves throughout the company.

The reason I am talking about this full moon now is that you know that your attention will be pulled in another direction on that Friday, and your emotions will be stirred up through the weekend, December 13-14. That's a popular weekend to shop, ship, and decorate the house, but I feel whatever comes up this weekend will cause those holiday activities to slide. If you have children depending on you to talk to Santa about getting certain presents for them, you may find it hard to get through to Santa, if you catch my meaning. This is why I ask you to shop in November, when you have everything going for you, and finish up your shopping, wrapping, and shipping no later than December 9. If you put up a Christmas tree, I would like you to have it up by December 9 if possible, too.

After the full moon arrives December 12 plus or minus three days, you will be preoccupied, and by the time you regain your balance it will be December 20 or so, which is really late! Why pay high shipping costs for packages you couldn't ship earlier? Get ready for the holiday in November, and you will be SO glad you did. This year the stores will have plenty of sales, so you will not miss out on those. Also, stores will have lower inventory than usual, so you won't be disappointed with your selection in November."

awesome

"Life certainly hasn't been easy for you lately"
understatement of the century..... first line of this months horoscope. you have to laugh a little.

so im not a real astrology devotee or anything... usually i casually turn to it when life is in the crapper, and i need a little hope.

flop monster. one of her many nicknames. after breakfast she would pass out hard and it was always hard to get her to get up and into her crate. most mornings one of us would have to carry her lifeless body all flopped over, limbs dangling, and put her into her crate. we always enjoyed how comfortable she was with us.

porky had great folds. they were itchy and she would dive bomb the carpet and drag her face against it to scratch them. she usually smelled like corn chips and her breath smelled like an asthma inhaler. it might sound morbid, but this is exactly what she looked like when she died, all flopped over, relaxed, jowls all smushed. i dont know if i will ever get over her loss.

yesterday i lost one of the things that has defined me for the past three years, and it has been one of the most painful things i have even been through. porkchop had begun to suffer from a liver problem which caused her system to overload with ammonia, which caused her neurological problems. it was painful to see her struggle, and for as much as i wanted to keep her in my life, i had to sacrifice my needs for the benefit of hers.

i will miss her forever.

i laid in bed with porkchop all day yesterday. she felt best when she was pressed in between my body and the back of the couch, pushing her head into the pillow, my arm, or the corner of the couch. i slept from 1230-4pm and then went back to bed at 6. its amazing how exhausting crying is, and just being sad in general.
the vets seem pretty convinced that porky has a neurological disorder like pug encephalitis, and have already told me that i need to be rational and consider her quality of life over our emotional attachment. its absolutely heartbreaking. we are going to the critical care facility tomorrow, and hopefully they will be able to give me a more certain idea of exactly what is wrong with her.
blah.
