In preparation for Switchback Sea,

I cut off all my hair!!!

feels SOOOOOOOOOOO good.

it's short short and I'm sending my hair to Locks of Love. I probably should have taken before and after shots but I was anxious to cut it off already so I didn't.

yup.

yum.

yaaaar.

leaving for a long time.. and so much to do...

Suddenly right before I leave my laundry list of special items to accomplish gets large and very very demanding. It's hard to prioritize. Do I make smocks for the shop? Do I make smocks for the boats? Do I make belt bags for my nieces, or friends in NY who I was supposed to make stuff for the last time I was there? What about the silkscreening press that needs to be fixed? What about the posters I want to make before I leave? Then there's my room to deal with; Cleaning and straightening and clearing out space for my sublet/friend.

Between this ^^^, family in town who I haven't seen for a year plus, and a part-time day job, next week is going to be a very very very hectic week.

Being away for six weeks is being away for a long time.

MMMmmmmmmm...... it's gonna be SO GOOOOOOD!!!!!!

Then when I get back, I want to look at studio opportunities. I'd like something close and cheap/free, with access to water, and open air/ventilation...

Word.

Tomorrow... and photo exhibit..

I will be at Smockshop in China Town from 12 - 4pm.. my turn to sit the shop.. I'll be finishing up two smocks and trying to sew pants for the boat trip..

If you're around East Hollywood and happen upon the best ice cream shop, Scoops, check out my photo exhibit on the walls. It's a compilation of some of my best shots from the last few years of my bike life. It features various aspects of everything I've been around bike-wise, from messengers to Midnight Ridazz, to Black Label, to velodrome racing, and freak bike builds.

If you can't make the actual show, you can check out the photo's here.

Probably Something New Would Be Good.

I love my sewing machine.

I mean I love my Mom's sewing machine that I am never giving back to her. I've been sewing small bags and patches, and printing stuff...

I love Smock Shop and the fact that we now have a storefront for 3 months in China Town!

Also - I love Swoon. And I am ridiculously excited to be a part of SWIMMING CITIES OF SWITCHBACK SEA, her latest art project/floating installation/life choice. We're going to take a fleet of seven alternatively powered rafts down the Hudson River for three weeks in August/Sep.. I think I get to be a singer in the performance that goes with the boats.

I will wear sunscreen everyday.
