what the hell

Posted by resonanteye on August 15, 2010

sorry I have not been posting much. I’m compiling the book. Here’s what’s been happening lately: a meteor shower, many river and coast trips, much hectic tattooing and painting, a visit from my gentleman friend and several others, and some farmtime hammock relaxing.

I’m going to be posting more soon. Let me finish the compiling work and we will be back on schedule.  And here are some pictures, to tide you over, once more.

Marylin was kinda upset but only I think because she didn’t realize that they post not only ugly or “bad” work, but also joke tattoos and silly ones, that are well done. I understand that not knowing what the site was like she would be pretty upset. But I love that site so…

Any rate here’s the tattoo that caused the flak.

At any rate, this is my own photo of the tattoo. It came out great and makes me really happy. Marylin is an awesome person, and the tattoo made us both giggle a ton. So it didn’t bother me to see it posted there. Go check out their site, too. Except for the fact that they don’t even TRY to find the source for the better-quality tattoos and credit the artists (COME ON GUYS) it’s a great site. And the truly ugly tattoos that do get posted are hilarious too.

coastal foreign relations.

Posted by resonanteye on May 7, 2010

had an australian guest. took my brit friend and the aussie out to the coast. We gathered some fiddleheads, some mussels. and made dinner. it was delicious. next time wild onions on the menu!

They laughed about the tsunami signs, but I laughed about the sneaker waves. At one point I did actually get swallowed whole by the ocean. Wet carhaarts and yet my nice waterproof jacket kept my cigarettes dry and smokeable.

It was a great time.

land ho

Posted by resonanteye on May 5, 2010

I’ve been eyeballing a piece of property. It’s not big or that great but it’s isolated and would be perfect to make one of these on…I would be so happy not to pay rent any longer.

Also the notion of being off the grid is very very appealing.

I don’t know how ready I am for the end times or whatever you call it, but I think having a home base to retreat to after travel would definitely be a good feeling. A very good feeling.

I’ve never owned anything before on this level so it’s a strange and exciting new thought. It’s incredibly cheap or I’d never even be able to contemplate it…but just the idea of owning anything, even a patch of garbage land, is fascinating to me.

Ownership. Is property theft? I’ve always thought so. I guess if I were USING something I would consider it my own. This brings up all sorts of philosophical junk in my mind that I need to think through. Never having been privileged enough to inherit property of any kind makes this idea of “claim to space” or “rootedness” a brand new thing, and somewhat awkward.

I’ll post more on this as my thoughts develop. Other perspectives welcomed…comment if you have any thoughts on this.
