[link from pure sugar, a new find] given my love for dale chihuly, this piece of news is very exciting: World-renowned glass artist Dale Chihuly has works on display in more than 180 museums around the world. Now for the first time Chihuly's dynamic, ravishingly beautiful creations will mingle with nature in a house made of glass. Chihuly in the Park: A Garden of Glass will be on display at the historic Garfield Park Conservatory. 2001 october 16check out my roommate j3s' latest project: fuckcorporategroceries.net - an attempt to stay away from corporate grocery stores, but even more so, a way to support our local neighborhood shops at the same time! i'm back in the office for a day or two - it's so nice to be back in familiar, comfortable surroundings! as i'm working through a long list of favorite bookmarks, i came across the latest get crafty installment of "real women in real homes", and, it's ariel! check out the forest loft, even though it is not her current dwelling, it still made me happy to see it again ;-) 2001 october 15last night was incredible! björk is such an amazing artist & performer, i only wish i could experience it again... read a review of last night's show. 2001 october 13another weekend full of good times. last night, went for dinner at the vegetarian express gourmet, a vegan restaurant down near my parents place. i brought a little crew with me, and it went over very well. especially, atom, the only vegan in the bunch. nice to find a restaurant full of good food one can eat without no hesitations. on to the big news: as we speak, "return to armitage 4" is in the making ;-) yes, that's right, tonight is the latest in a series of parties at the apartment. the last one was back in june, much too long ago. we've all been busy, we're celebrating many birthdays, so the time is ripe! however, all my roomies are sleeping, and we've got much to do before night falls, so i better get movin'... oh yeah, and lastly, tomorrow i will see björk, at the civic opera house, in chicago. wow!! 2001 october 9i practice jedi, and you? [thanks to murph for keeping me in the loop] spent my wonderful day off yesterday at six flags great america. it was a beautiful day, but 2 hours consisted of waiting in line for the latest ride, déjà vu. it was crazy! fun ride, but 2 hours was a bit much. i'm glad i waited, rollercoasters are meant for that long wait, hearing the screams, excitement building, all that jazz. 2001 october 7another exciting fall weekend in chicago - actually, we just turned our heat on for the first time! yesterday was lovely, a whole lot of sun & a little bit of chill; went to a local pug parade, as my brother has a pug & now my entire family can't get enough of them. it was great, pugs all over the place, and with all the excitement, you didn't hear any barking. those dogs are pretty well mannered, although some can be quite a handful ;-) today, on another perfect fall day, i'm heading down to SOFA, the art expo, to see this exhibit: chihuly at the holstein gallery. great stuff! 2001 october 1oh yeah - the cocktail lounge is open!! you can read my entry here, it's called a "cold front" - enjoy! did i really just type october up there?! is that possible? time to flip the calendars once again......my, oh my, where did september go? oh yeah, now i remember...... here is an interesting story from salon.com: while most of us sat watching horrible images on tv, others were out to make a buck - registering domain names related to the tragedies. |
