The Fruiting Body

paperalligator: Hey, it’s September! Which means I have a few illustrations I can get to share, including the children’s book I finished over winter. I have to update the website for that though. But in the meantime, this summer was a good time to draw dogs; the first was a piece for <i>Rhode Island Monthly</i> about ‘yappy hour’ for dogs, and the second was for <i>Vegetarian Times</i> (about exercising with your pet). I love drawing animals, so it’s a no brainer. I’m hoping to eke out some time to develop some personal projects over the fall… stay tuned. paperalligator: Hey, it’s September!

IDK

I realize the songs that get stuck in my head always have relevant lyrics. The last few days I’ve had Hang Me Up to Dry by the Cold War Kids and Tiger mountain Peasant Song by Fleet Foxes. 

Specifically, I’ve been singing this over and over again:

I dont know what I have done

I’m turning myself

to a demon

Just So You Know

If you’re wondering why I haven’t been posting, its because I know once I say what I’m thinking, nobody will like me anymore.

Nah, I’m just kidding. I’ve just been trying to pretend my life isnt really happening, that this isnt really my summer, that I’ll be able to go back to school next semester, and that I’ll have a real job and everything will be ok and I’ll get 8 hours of sleep a night.

None of that’s true though (well, some of it remains to be seen) but the point is, and this is amazing, it’s not like I’m not happy. I’m just scared shitless. 

The end result is that I’ve been avoiding my own mind.
