Travelled by Chinatown Bus to get to Philly for the opening of my show at Pentimenti Gallery.
'Virtual Migration' is on view in the project room- go check it out if you're nearby!
Show dates are Feb1-Mar3, 2007.

Brent and I walked around Philly- it was freezing cold and raining a lot...but still so nice to get a change of scenery...
I like this place- Used bookshops and galleries and artworkshops and mosaic madness ohmY:).
Wish we had more time..so much more to see/do.
I fell in love the first day with the sweeeeetest lil elephant in the window of the soon-to-be-opened
Fabric Workshop and Museum in Philadelphia on Cherry Street.
He breathes!! There is a speaker nearby with the sound, and he inflates and deflates a little bit as you watch!
soooo sweeeet. Can i keep him, huh, can I???

I dreamt many things this morning...tidal wave again...holding breath as it passes over me...somehow getting into a hotel and pulling myself and an elevator up manually using rails in the elevator shaft and all my strength..rooftop...B's sister looking out to the horizon, ready to become her 'alter-ego', B's mom being brought in by the police, traumatized by the wave, stuttering, broken sanity. She had been 'bringing Christmas' to a native tribe, was wearing a beaded necklace gift from them. But now, had gone insane.:(

But another part of the dream was my favorite:
I had an elephant.
A beautiful huge full-sized elephant. And we loved eachother utterly and beyond.
I was wiping dust and sand off it's big beautiful face so slowly and we looked into eachother's eyes with Love.
Oh such love. Makes me smile to remember.
I pressed on its left shoulder in such a way to tell it to lie down...He needed to, exhausted. Then I curled up right there on the trunk by the face and we slept as we 'always did'. My elephant and I.
