i made a valentine last week without any specific recipient in mind and though i've been trying to think of who that could be, now i'm thinking that maybe i'll just keep it for myself. it has a foil wrapper from a chocolate heart sewn onto it, but though it once retained the heart shape, it is now crushed into a mess of red foil. feel free to read into that one for entertainment's sake only. really i'm feeling a bit distanced from the hallmark holiday this year aside from partaking in a group valentine and a nice handmade valentine i received today—valentines enough for me. plus i'm a currently used in an example of a term over at pseudodictionary, which is like an eternal valentine in a way.

for those who have been perched on seat edges wondering, the zine: (in)between (there was a link for this, but now it's all 404.)
what else? i want to redesign soon. the end of next week i am away to even colder weather.. for some reason. it seems cold enough here at the moment i don't understand how people can resist from giggling while calvin johnson performs; i can't quite remember the line but something about how if the dead can rise so can we? and don't worry about the owl, it's not what it seems.
