1. I have epileptic seizures when I don't get enough sleep, skip meals, or get very stressed out. Any combination on the three will guarantee sure-fire results.
2. Although I don't really consider myself to be someone overly interested in fashion, I find clothing endlessly fascinating. Especially when considered as 'wearable, durable, washable sculpture,' which is how I like to think about it.
3. I have extremely good hearing. Often, I listen in on the conversations around me in a crowded room, and can distinguish each one at any given moment. Sometimes, when two people are talking, and one cannot understand what the other one is saying, I can repeat the entire statement, word for word, even if standing across the room. It's because I'm a superhero.
4. For a brief period of time, and for apparently no reason, myself and a friend (who shall remain nameless) tried to go on an "all-reconstituted" diet. We would only consume foods that grew to their edible state when soaked, cooked or simmered in water. Nothing else. We did this for two weeks.
5. On that note, I was vegan for about 5 years. Although I rarely got sick and had lots of energy during that time period, I was stupendously underweight (this is tied in with the "all reconstituted diet"). This fact hit home one night when I cracked a rib riding on the Tilt-A-Whirl at the South Carolina Spartanburg County Fair. Following that, I began eating fish. Then milk. Then cheese. Then bacon. Then chicken. Then cold cuts. Then burgers and hot dogs. That's about where I'm at now.
6. I think Weiner Dogs are God's gift to all mankind. Along with fire, oil paints, and Kate Bush.
Here is a Weiner Dog in a giraffe costume.

I miss you so much more when I read your blog. It makes me want to hope in my car with a pile of cds, stop by the coffee shop and grab two medium coffees, and drive over to Cedar Street to gab about things in your studio. And then I remember that I don't live on Ruth Drive anymore, you do. And that Cedar street is no longer Cedar Street. And that I'm all the way over in Nebraska ... did I mention that I'm from this totally awesome place called OMAHA, Nebraska .... and you're in Georgia.
Bummer.
And a dog dressed as a giraffe, classic.
I think you're one of God's gifts to this planet, weiner boy.
also, I just realized that if you come to another cookout at my place we can make you a real kebob!
