2.20.18

The quick update:
Vick almost died in April 2016 but he didn't.
We got married June 2016.
We moved to Ohio in November 2016 but Vick hated it so we came back the next summer.
While in Ohio I started doing food delivery apps and I think I'm done with traditional jobs forever.
Vick's drinking got really bad and we almost divorced; he quit, though, so we worked it out.
We tried to restart Raptor House but it wasn't fun anymore so Vick shut it down.

Life, Art Fair, and Whore Blood Jesus Maxi-pad

Another day, another three or four hours spent sitting at Satellite Coffee. We've pretty much resigned ourselves to the idea that we live here again. I rewrote my resume yesterday and am planning to go around looking for a job as soon as I can get copies printed and pull some work clothes together. We need to go up to the SSI office and transfer Johnny's information here before Ohio cuts him off. I'm planning to enroll in UNM for either a creative writing or fine arts degree (maybe both), I'm just waiting because I don't have money to pay the application fee. Honestly, I look forward to being back in school and I've been having a lot of fun making art and seeing all the people I missed while I was in Ohio, I just need to get a little more on the ball with making money and art and writing; sleeping until two in the afternoon is a great way to waste your life. With less than five days until the art fair I've been scrambling to get things together. I've t...

Family

Right now I'm listening to podcast by my cousin. She's eleven years older than me so we've never been very close; we saw each other a few times a year (Christmas, 4th of July, weddings, and baby showers) and I knew she was the only other member of my family that could be called "alternative," (by that I mean she was into things that most people in Ohio were not even aware of). I left the area when I turned eighteen; she had kids and went to school and stayed in the area. A couple years ago she published a book. It's amazing to me that someone I know has published a book. I know a lot of people who have written zines or who show art or make crafts that are sold around town, but not one other person who's done something like this. She recently found me on facebook and said that she thinks we have a lot of things in common so today I googled her name and found youtube videos of her burlesque performance, profiles of her on half a dozen pages, her blog, and ...

Beautiful Day

Vick and I went to Old Town today to test our cameras while we walked around a neighborhood that isn't the student ghetto. It's funny, I've lived in Albuquerque off and on for seven years and I've only been to Old Town maybe twice, once to see Fast Heart Mart play at the gazebo and once when my mom came to town for Johnny's and my wedding (in 2011; the last of the Navajo wind talkers, about five men, were signing books. The last one passed away last year). There wasn't anything special going on but it was a lot of fun to just wander around and film each other. Have you seen Rome '78? I was thinking it would be cool to do a Western that way here in New Mexico. After I got home I downloaded the free version of Lightworks; I spent probably six hours messing around with it tonight. I don't understand (so far, at least) why it's supposed to have such a steep learning curve. The tutorials were pretty straight forward, anyway. Unfortunately, my camera sav...
