someday a real rain will come 

and wash this scum off the streets

- robert de niro, taxi driver (1976)

nyc is white glove

clean these days

you know

a lot of new yorkers

who lived here in the 70's / 80's

have an uncanny nostalgia

for the old filthy gotham.

i've heard a lot

of stories.

a taxi driver once

told me with light in his eyes

"it was a dirty town, man, but

the city had soul...i can't

explain it. soul baby."

rudy's new york 

reminds me of my new york.
always modest furnishings.

a furnace, a window

a chair, a desk.

and a glass of pens.

  

nyc tomorrow

places to go, people to see

i hope i haven't missed 

the first snow.

via happy accident

lighter layers

when will it end!

the aggressive 80's fashion

swarming the city streets

 magazines and stores.

it's been 2 years
of severe severe darkness.

leather, shoulders, spike heels

studs, ridiculous fashion editor attire

everyone looks so "affected"

well all need to chill out.

ah, but i feel a sweet feminine

revolution beginning to blossom:
nouveau french seventies romance

floral crop blouses, long skirts

patch work jeans, beige,
suede, and floppy hats
chanel sp 10

i have no desire
to look edgy.


i'm good to go with
some patched jeans and
a flower in my shirt pocket.



ps: until spring,
my winter uniform:
ali mcgraw in "a love story"
 plaid skirt with tights & pea coat
anna karina in band of outsiders
red stockings too.

it's important to

share our favorite toys

see how others

use them.

on thanksgiving.

 ps: i was looking at
nyc apartments on craigslist
and stumbled upon a brilliant post.
Instead of writing about the loft
they posted this video.


i want to
live with the
brat pack.

the old man and the sea

tell me a "big fish" story

or some kind of

an exaggeration

of the truth

forgotten frames

do you see yourself

growing old in the city,

or out in the country?

 

country.
but 45 min
to a city

enjoy your thanksgiving

tumbling tumble weeds

here on the range i belong

pledging my love to the ground

i'll keep rolling along.

drifting with the tumbling

tumble weeds.

ps: the tumble weed in my sister's

bungalow really ties the

room together.

down in LA

...where the light

makes me feel a bit

closer to Mexico

I'm not mexican

but mexico has always been

a great comfort to me and my family.

i think it might be a california thing.

you know,

our population is

almost 50 / 50 now.

i would be down

if we all switched

to spanish.

regardless,

if you live in california

you gotta speak some spanish.

it should be a requirement.

lou dobbs

is spitting on

me right now.

i'm not young enough

to know everything
- oscar wilde

Plain I see you Western youths

 

GO FORTH!

We debouch upon

a newer, mightier world,

varied world.

 

For we cannot tarry here,

We must march my darlings,

We must bear the brunt of danger,

We the youthful sinewy races,
all the rest of us depend.
