welding.

i want to learn to weld so my back yard can look like this.

i'm thinking :/

i want this one. i think.

this is besides the point, 

i had the most intriguing conversation today. i am not the only one that is bored with this place. maybe its because i don't have access to prestigious academic courses so all i've learned this year has been very minimal. but, if you turn your head the other way i think i've learned a lot. i learned more about reality rather than expanding on intellectual concepts. 

i feel like a test rat, running in and out of my cubical, being tested on various subjects. i would just like to be free of it all. i want to live in a cabin in the woods, shoot squirrels, smoke cigarettes, listen to records, and feel the wind in my hair. 

sort of like this:

lets decide:

this one:

or this one?
or... what should be done?

updating your status:

Annie George What are you doing right now?

Annie George is What are you doing right now?

Annie George is feeding the monster.

Annie is feeding the monster.

Absorbed
in your ill hustling
you're feeding a monster,
just feeding a monster.

Invasion
after invasian,
this means war,
this means war.

Someday you'll be up to your knees
in the shit you seed.
All the gullible
that you mislead
won't be up or it.

Where to
will you relocate
now that it's war.
Now that it's war

creative freedom

Special thanks to:

Tanner Notch, for trimming my bangs. They really are beautiful.

Nate - last name unknown, for scarring my eyebrow. I killed a man.

and, of course, Erin Reeder, for toasting bagels at 2:30 in the morning. She knows what's on my mind.

The Ku Klux Klan rose to power in Oregon during the early 1920s becoming the largest

 social organization in the state. Running with the KKK's endorsement and support, Walter Pierce was elected governor of Oregon in 1922.
