Photo shoot for "Salvador's closet",

Pilsen, Chicago.

Perhaps finally doing a photo shoot in the nude would bring me closer to my body... or my relationship to my free self--Initially when i was asked to be a cello on a boat with a man playing me... and that we were the last two people on the planet- I simply liked the image- the frozen moment, and so it was not about me being nude. The cello's sound is the closest sound to a human voice- I could embody the cello- I could dig this-and yet I was surprised at myself for agreeing to it- but am so glad I did- photos yet to come...

On Dec 15th my stepfather Francis J. Twiss was interned at Arlington National Cemetary. 

He was a WW 2 vet, submarine combat, three medals. 

he was married to my mom for 19 years, and was a kind and loving man. i will miss him...

My friends make sushi...on labor day...no corkscrew

Hope is a thing with wings...

These kids can skate- and are fearless...I love it

hope is a thing with wings

presley's first dog fight- really it was only over a sandwich found under a tree- he and eli his husky friend scrapped and presley lost- two holes in his little nose- lots of blood- i was more afraid than he- lots of cool cloths applies to his nose- lots of kisses and hugs- and I think he is fine... I mean it is barely visible in this picture- but I was afraid- and felt so bad for him. eli is his friend... I hate that dogs do that- it's not like they were starving- and it was an old boloney sandwich thrown into the bushes... not worth a puncture wound- now presley is a big boy- his first fight- I feel like some of his innocence is somehow gone- 

My angels my heros have left me, what now...

Everybody is doing it

I am like an infant beginning to walk learning how to set up my blog. I do not yet know what my intention for it is. i definitely do not know who it is for other than myself. 

Today I am wondering if we did not come from the stork, what bird would you want to come by if you had a choice?
