It really floors me how much I accomplish in the middle of the night, when I feel so fried I wouldn’t think I could concentrate on anything. I’ve been sewing a lot the last few days. Pictures aren’t much.. but it is almost 4:30 in the morning afterall. 
Thanks for the birthday present, Chrissy. November 18, 2009, 5:31 am in public
But doesn’t do much for my messed up throat. I have embellished the cute little wrist warmies I got from http://monsterartandclothing.com

For my birthday, my trapeze partner Bev took me to try out flying trapeze at SANCA’s brand new flying rig. It was super fun, and pretty scary at first. Mostly, I thought the heavy bar was going to take me down before I was ready to take off. I got over that pretty quick, and graduated onto tricks faster that I’d expected.

I am turning 30. I am having a party. Are you confident I would not want to burn the house down upon your arrival, considering my guests collateral damage for wiping you off the planet? Then request an invitation from the facebook event to RSVP! In addition, back by popular demand because you asked for it… wishlist for my 30th. See you guys on Nov 2. Stuff I like..
Stuff that’s crossed my mind recently…
A word about Money… Money is a social necessity that becomes less and less of a priority as I age and develop my sense of what I find important in my life. I make very little, and generally do not have much left over after my modest monthly bills. One of my largest projects is a volunteer position as a founder of a non-profit, and often my performances are unpaid – I have chosen to do what fuels me, and have worked hard to reduce my financial footprint to where I can live how I want and not have to worry (too much) about making a lot of money or making my decisions based on that. That said, money is a great gift for me. There are things I enjoy and/or would benefit greatly from that are difficult to acquire by means of trade or barter, and money is as versatile as my interests at the time. There is a stigma about money being a cop out gift, and in some respects I can see why. However, for me, money is great. I can use it to stroll the produce section and get my food for the day, shoot myself into space, go see a movie with you, get some new paint colors, or pad the bank account for vita-arts.org. Neat stuff! So if you’re stumped, strapped for time, across the country or whatever and a simple ‘happy birthday’ doesn’t float your boat, just send me a fatass check. I’ll totally dig it, and promise I will do something cool with it. Here’s to making it this far! September 26, 2009, 10:32 am in public
My view on the project is more political/social than the site, http://theyareonlypixels.com, talks about. I like how open ended the project is from the photographers point of view, it’s nice to see someone doing a community project for the sake of allowing others to express what they’d like out of it, rather than saying “This is meant to tell all the nude haters to screw off” or the like. Strange. I just got deja vu.

My baby dreads, without extensions. Just took them out tonight. August 14, 2009, 10:57 pm in public
The crotch of these were originally way too low, and the lace hems at my ankles. I cut the top off and deconstructed another pair of little shorts which had a white elastic waist to comebine them. To color match I stained the white lace with tea (Bengal Spice bitchez!). They are still kinda damp. :) They are rad, and crazy comfortable. The seam in the butt is a little off center, and when I try to straighten it the pants wrap around me funny, but I totally don’t give a shit. I am right crap at sewing things, so I’m happy with these. January 29, 2009, 10:17 am in public
“You think like an artist. Or better, you SEE like an artist. While most people look at lifes straight lines, its height and depth and width, you’re bending the lines with your imagination and turning black and white into shades of blue and yellow. In conversations at work or with your friends you want to ask, “Do you see what I see?”. A few might, most don’t, but you’ve piqued everyone’s curiosity. You can, if you must, think in conventional ways. But left on your own, you’ll usually opt for the eccentric or avant-garde; in fact you’re usually bored with what everyone else is comfortable with. You learn from reading, talking, watching people and other fauna and flora, and simply sitting in the soft chair of your mind and wondering how people would learn how to count if they could only use uneven numbers. You are out in front of conventional ideas, bravely defining true and false, right and wrong, the good, the bad and the ugly. You drive through life faster than the speed limit, and when you hit speed bumps (and you hit a lot of them with your mind distracted from the straight line ahead), your wheels leave the ground. You think well. Even your wildest fancies have their roots in the deep soil of sound ideas and tested beliefs. So even if some people don’t want to drive at high speed with you, they will respect you for your courage as an innovative and unconventional thinker. You lend color and imagination to what would otherwise be the straight black and white lines of their work world and social environments. A few more daring people of your circle might even learn from you to take a risk they would otherwise never consider. As comfortable as they are on solid ground, they may be curious about what it would be like to go faster than the speed limit, or paint the living room two shades of blue, or question ideas or beliefs they’ve fingered like sacred beads since they were children. After all, they watch you do it, and you seem no worse for the risks you take. In fact, your eyes are wider and your breath quicker, and maybe they can find at least a bit of this for themselves. To be certain, they don’t want their wheels to leave the ground. But maybe the next time they approach a speed bump, they might just brace themselves and speed up… just a little bit.” January 12, 2009, 5:49 pm in playlists

Right now, we’re going through the visioning portion of the curriculum at Brian Utting, which has us all thinking about what our life mission is and how a massage career (not to mention the process of massage school) fits into what we’d like to do in the world and who we are. I’ve created a set of Johari and Nohari windows for myself today. I would very much appreciate the input of my friends and associates in filling them out. It’s essentially an interactive personality profile to assist in uncovering holes in your perception of self vs. how you come across to the people around you. Some may recall that I did this many years ago, when I was struggling with what in the world to do with myself and my life. I got a lot of useful feedback. I am interested in comparing what has changed since then, and what hasn’t. I feel quite different, quite evolved, from the person I was when I last asked myself and my friends what most applied to me as a person. I love this kind of stuff, and I encourage those who choose to participate to be completely honest, even with the Nohari, which is considered the ‘negative’ one of the two. Your opinion is invaluable, even if you only know me online or not very well. Thank you for considering taking the time and thought into participating. I’m happy to return the effort for anyone who wants to make profiles for themselves, also. It’s simple, and free. http://kevan.org/johari?name=neevita http://kevan.org/nohari?name=neevita I’m open to sharing the old windows, for anyone who’s interested in seeing them, after filling out the ‘new’ one. Just ping me for the urls. Namaste, motherfucker. March 16, 2008, 4:10 pm in playlists

I have decided on my next tattoo, to embellish the one I have on my lower back. It will be a cherry blossom branch, stylized and colored. I’ve decided to put the piece on my credit card so I can get it done right away, once I find the artist. It’s going to be fucking gorgeous. Simply put, the cherry blossom represents “Spiritual Beauty”. The symbolism in both Chinese and Japanese culture is lovely, and well suited for me; For the Chinese the cherry blossom is a very significant symbol of feminine power, beauty and sexuality and often holds an idea of feminine dominance. Herbal lore describes the cherry blossom as often being the symbol of love. For the Japanese it represents the transience of life, as the cherry blossom is a very delicate flower that blooms for a short time. An example of great beauty and sadness, the samurai saw the cherry blossom as a melancholy reminder of death amidst life. Coming to terms with their mortality allowed them to live their lives fully, with little use for pettiness, argument, callousness or cruelty. The cherry blossom is a reminder that our life will not last, a representation of beauty in feminine form, and it captures the sense of dignity and strength contained within something so fragile and fleeting. It’s perfect. I am so ready. It’s time to own that I am a delicate flower, to come to real peace with it and treasure how I am in my soul and honor that – always. I can still joke about being a “delicate fucking flower, you shitlicking fuckhole!”, but all the progress and work I’ve put into myself over the last few years has been to come to terms with my vulnterability and delicacy, see it as a strength than a weakness. I want a reminder of how far I’ve come, that I have everything I need inside myself, and that often it resides in the last place I think to look for it. At this point, what holds me back the most is forgetting I want something beautiful and feminine and complex and sexual and blood fucking red that wraps around me and embraces my body like I visualize myself comforting my inner child. I am so excited. Just telling people about what the thing means to me will remind me that I know how to be a better person. June 6, 2007, 1:30 am in playlists

When darkness belongs to night sky, and nothing else. Nothings right without you here, sentimental feelings never die. The way you feel is real ok with me, the pleasure’s mine. How I wish you were here. We’re just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl, year after year (after year after year).. I look to you and I see nothing. I look to you to see the truth. He says: “I still cry out for you”, and your life knows no answers. Your life knows no answers. Let the show begin, our eyes roll back and we beg for more. Breathe. I’d quickly give my freedom to be held in your captivity. Are you ready? — Two of my own remixes in here now. 90 minutes.

Description: It’s slightly melancholy, but mostly just pretty trip-hop/electronic music. I recently discovered Archive and am quite impressed by them, even though the lyrics are a little on the elementary side of the scale. I chose other songs to compliment my favorites from them. Great night driving playlist to have on during the long drive home from my movie set at 4am. Track Listing: Archive – Headlights |
