I just got off the phone with JD Samson of Le Tigre. I'm doing an interview with her for Fault Lines Newspaper. My speaker phone is shit though so I had to email her the question since we sounded like two old ladies on the phone - what? - What? Did you say? - Can't hear you? - what? . I'm going to an experimental...

I'm packing tonight. It was a really long day. I'm probably going to try to clean the house before I leave. I always like leaving things nice and tidy. Tomorrow morning I'm taking Kinsella to the vet. It's going to cost like $150 but they say if he doesn't go in to the hospital and get medicated quick his urethra will become so inflamed that...

Me and my cat Kinsella have so much in common. He's bleeding out of his crotch and I'm bleeding out of mine. Kinsella, I believe has bladder stones and is pissing out blood. Me, I'm just on the rag. Kinsella is suffering from major anxiety which is worstening his condition and most likely the cause of the stones. I'm suffering through major anxiety attacks and...

I'm in the mood for Thanksgiving Tofurkey and mashed potatoes. I'm excited that Tofurkey day is coming soon. I like the idea of being with friends and food and wine and it getting all chilly outside. I sent in some more submissions to publishers. I sent a new piece into Other Magazine and some older pieces into some feminist quarterlies. The painting of the house...

So today was incredibly surreal for me. I heard back from the sex workers art show about touring with them.. and they said they recieved 5 times the amount of submissions they normally do and that they weren't able to include me on the tour but that they would like me to perform in February at the San Francisco Show..which is cool. I also got...
