Well, all of our boxes arrived Friday morning.
Now our apartment is cramped with our crap. But it just makes it feel more like home.

A new and improved reel.

Our Life Now

This Is Home, Too from Caitlin Diaz on Vimeo.

Checked out some new movies at the library today

and I almost don't want to post this because I feel like it's a personal treasure that blew my mind and I want to watch it a thousand more times just to have every moment embedded in my brain for years to come.



Such a beautiful world. Pretty scary, too. I like getting scared.

Gonna make more of these now.

Hanna Barbera

I got myself a New York Public Library card and it has proven to be the greatest thing in my life at the moment. I found this book called Cartoon Modern: Style and Design of Fifties Animation. I really like extremely stylized animation--I really hate this CG crap that is used for every new cartoon. The only channel I was able to watch was Boomerang to get my cartoon fix. Adult Swim has a few good cartoons, but I liked watching The Jetsons and Top Cat.

But no cartoon brings me more love than this one:



They remind me of Peanut and Tachi.

I remember writing a letter to Cartoon Network when I was really young. I think I drew them a picture of something, a dog or horse probably. They sent me back an awesome postcard saying how they appreciated my letter. It was unexpected and a really rad postcard.

do the damn thing...

In New York, finally.






All I need now is:
a job
the rest of my clothes
Tachi (he didn't make the flight since it was too cold in Dallas.
I miss him immensely...)

Here's to you, Tachi!

I miss you :[
