i will announce the highest bid here for this:
http://ana.livejournal.com/1762773.html
as well as in that post, too, since some are bidding here and some by email.
so far the highest bid is 100 plus $30 shipping= $130
if anyone beats that, i will tell you here and there.
the bigger the bid, the more i will add to the box.
now because it's at $130
i am going to include a shirt i made that is totally japanese deconstructivist
thing i made.
it has keys hanging off it and a big puffy star made from puffy furry fabric.
one of a kind. my 1st ever indulgenment into sewing my own clothes.
i wore it during a rare photo session for my spool forka dish record on columbia.
and it is shown on a cd single.
a very personal item for me, very joyful and colourful.

a box of surprises for sale
i am making a box of surprises.
very big.
i will tell you some of what is in it:
a tour schedule/roster (the real deal) from a queen tour in 1980
the high heeled shoes i wore on the cd sleeve of my cd anavoog.com (i will
autograph them on the bottom of the heels)
(as well as many anacam pix)
a very very elaborate and very personal drawing i did with colourpencil, only one in existence. you get the only one.
my famous "yes, they're fake" long sleeved t shirt that i wore (and made myself) to this big "scenester" party in NYC for yahoo internet life or something. and it made a big stir and now there is even a website named after it.
the LAST of the 1st ever anacam.com coffee cups.
2 or more crazy cool vintage shoes, one from the 20's.
one platform i handpainted from the 70's.
real photos of goldfrapp, iggy pop, patti smith (not xeroxes or something from a magazine)
a stuffed animal i was crocheting that looks like some sort of sr. seuss
thing, but i never finished it, but it's still really cool :)
some of my art and doodles.
tons of babes in toyland (lots), kurt cobain, tori amos, the go-gos (like
the rolling stone they were on the cover of), cyndi lauper memorabelia.
tons of floppy disks with hundreds of photos and other things on them. some
from my cam (mostly), some from things off the net, it's just a hodge podge
of cool weird stuff, anime...god knows what but it's sure to be interesting.
and that is just a start.
i'm going to fill this thing to the brim.
it will be bursting with all sort of things from vintage postcards to posters
from the residents, to old buttons and i have no idea what is all going to
be in there but it's a lot.
i will start the bidding at $30, which is what the cost of shipping will most likely be.
so bid here, or email me to bid
to the highest it goes.
you will probably end up kicking yourself in the head at some point in time
if you don't bid for this.
6:26pm
i guess i am part of this and did
not even know it until today:
http://www.theaphroditeproject.tv/
i'm grateful that people are findig my work relevant and they want it to be
a part of their project, so i don't mean to sound like such a whiny ass diva.
but god, just spell my name right and LINK to my site and TELL me that i am
a part of the project. PLEASE.
i gave away some yarn i am never
going to use today.
and these really amazing boots that just never did fit me right.
i'm glad that each day i can get rid of a few more things.
bit by bit more space opens up for new things in my life.
i got my period today, and that with the full moon in scorpio and it being
44 degrees and freezing rain is making me feel quite cranky.
tonight is my friend mark's
gallery opening. in fact, it started right now.
but every fiber of my intuition is telling me that to go there woukd be a
really really bad idea, or at least it will make me cranky and drain me further,
at the very least.
when i'm like this i really do not have any energy for anyone else.
i need to shelter myself and cocoon and go within and be productive in my
own life.
i cannot deal with dealing with anyone else's egos or personalities today.
i'm like a sea sponge.
i would just suck it all into me, have no shields, become incredibly drained,
and it would take me days to recooperate.
so i'm just not going to go even tho i know that will bum him out.
but i'm sure it won't super much because everyone will be there tonight celebrating
him and his achievements and so he will be getting much love and attention
from everyone.
no one needs my cranky ass self thrown into the mix of good cheer.
and i need to take care of myself when i am like this because i know myself
well enough to know that when i am like this and i am thrown willy nilly into
a party situation with god knows who or what, i am most certainly prone to
blowing out a few of my fuses and circuits.
and i just do not want to deal with the aftermath of that.
i've spent just way too much energy trying to make people happy and feel appreciated.
and now is the time for me to really get down to me and what do i want and
where do i want to go with my life and i need to really do some heavy reevaluating
and energy shifting, and with the scorpio moon tonight i have the gift of
being able to do this.
the energy is right for deep introspection and making huge shifts within myself.
and i'm not going to miss this opportunity for myself and my art because i
was too busy making someone else feel happy about theirs.
this is selfish, i know, but it needs to be done if i am to make progress
with what i need to be doing in my life.
i'm not into making sacrifices in that way now and i am not going to miss
opportunities to do things for myself that i greatly need to do right now.
which is to be alone and make my art.
it's like i have been pregnant for so long now with so many ideas, this baby
is way long overdue.
and i feel the contractions starting and so i am like a wild mother cat hissing
and saying "stay the fuck out of the way, birth in progress!"
as everyone knows, births never do happen in convenient times.
nor do deaths.
they just happen when they happen.
it's like my water broke and water is everywhere.
i'm bleeding, it's raining, i'm making a bath....
i can see the river...
i need to be fully present in THIS moment.
not someone else's moment right now.
and i'm trying to let go of the guilt i feel for not being there.
and mother's day coming up...i can already feel the guilt piling on me about
that, too, and i'm trying to let that go.
every time i see a commercial for mother's day it depresses the hell out of
me.
i'm sure it depresses my mom even more.
she will probbaly be crying her eyes out all day on that day.
not fun to think about but impossible to get out of my mind.
4:59pm
ha, i checked my friends list and the 1st thing i see is this:
"Best line ever from a publisher

--------------------

Your Horoscope for May 12 , 2006
The moon in Scorpio will influence many ruling planets today, including yours.
Although it?s a positive influence you will need to watch out for being over
domineering, especially in matters of the heart! A brisk burst of aerobic
exercise will do you the world of good!
and
Surreptitious acts
This may be a day of considerable confusion and uncertainty. On the other
hand, you may gain new awareness of and sensitivity to others and their needs
and how they relate to your own. Your encounters with others today may be
demoralizing or confusing. Your ego energies are not very high, and you are
not in a self- assertive mood for vigorous competition. If someone comes at
you aggressively, your natural inclination today is to avoid the confrontation.
You might withdraw, or pretend to agree with the person just to avoid a contest.
You are afraid that asserting yourself might accomplish nothing, and this
fear may tempt you to act surreptitiously rather than out in the open. Avoid
doing that, however, because it will demoralize you further.

Friday
Moon in Scorpio
Mercury sextile Uranus TAURUS-PISCES
Moon opposition Sun SCORPIO-TAURUS 11:51pm PDT
Moon Void of Course 11:51pm PDT
Ah the full moon, the object of myth and art for, well for as long As we've watched that original T.V., the stars. It's the aspect that even the naysayer comments on. When weird shit is happening people always ask, "Is the moon full or something?" Before meeting with the Sun the moon aspects six planets, spreading out this energy in the plane of human awareness. If you're going to a Friday night soiree you better be ready for friskiness, flirtiness and that type of conversation that can get deep and serious in an instant. Scorpio is not a lightweight element of the zodiac.
It's also a great aspect to go to another level with the lover in your life. If not a time to embrace the lover in yourself. Most tantric disciplines caution against maithuna for 9 degrees before and after the full moon -18 hours-. It's combination of the knowledge that most people don't consciously make love and if not conscious some wild energies have access to you. But if you're conscious, and focused on the connection not the action it's potentially a window for some huge relationship shifts.
Today and tomorrow are like a psychedelic trip, sometimes when you're coming down you have the best revelations or interpretations to your journey. So as the barrage of experience sets off make notes if you need to. Conversations whether internal or public can pack a metaphoric punch and you may want to muse over them later. Mercury has been active this week right through the full Moon so the element of communication is high. Not always what we communicate but often more important what is communicated to us.
and
The Moon in transformational Scorpio can ask us to face our deepest fears so we can transmute negativity into more positive feelings. Today this may be easier than usual, since the Moon conjuncts buoyant Jupiter, harmoniously trines expressive Uranus, and then trines willful Mars, extending our feelings of self-sufficiency from the ongoing Grand Trine for yet another day. Additionally, logical Mercury forms a supportive sextile with Uranus, encouraging us to say things we would never say otherwise.
