So I live in this cave, right? Way high up on a ledge overlooking a huge drop. And I’ve got my computer up there, and my bed and everything of course.
It gets cold up there, so the ledge is all surrounded by hanging tarps or whatever.
So this one morning I invite my brother from another cave over to mine to see the latest stuff I’ve got on my computer. Games and such.
Well I guess the ledge wasn’t strong enough for two, because it snaps. And we’re falling and falling, the ledge, the computer, the bed, my brother and I, like Gandalf and the monster in Lord of the rings.
And after an hour or so we land, thud thud thud, and we’re all crushed and blood and such is coming out of our mouths. But we just laugh and laugh, being immortal.

Fall

I really enjoyed Taylors piece and the workshop discussion today. There is something very reflective and foreboding about the autumn season, I think, that makes for great art of all kinds.

"Every night,
and every morn,
some to misery are born.
Every morn,
and every night,
some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night."
-William Blake

I don't know about you guys but I've really been enjoying this class. Today, for example, I came to school in a really bad mood because of some things going on in my life that I don't want to get into, but seeing the three really cool and unique presentations and the discussions got my mind into a better place. Maybe that's why I've always got something to say in this class even though I'm mostly a pretty shy person. It's refreshing to me to hear everyone's different ideas about art and things, and also I find the freewriting excercises are mad fun. Also we don't have to be submitting essays and such all time like I had expected, which is nice since I struggle with writing papers and my other classes (and my work schedule) are pretty demanding.
Also the blogs are fun I've never had one before, and the burroway book is easy to read and has some mad good stories and poems (you guys gotta read the story "The School" in chapter 5, it's seriously funny and unusual.

Corpses

The exquisite corpse exercise today in class was mad fun. I vote we do that again sometime.
