monday: making/statements

this week i will:
*stop making excuses & scan-then-post some polaroids from our trip
*see this cool band here (they are friends of lauren's from montreal)
*attend an art opening that i have been awaiting since our first week here. there will be taxidermy, tornadoes in lacquer cabinets, & hopefully a series of poems after
*ask you all to keep your fingers crossed for some possible good news that i don't know the outcome of yet (the fingers on both hands, please)
*find some young contemporary british poets. where are all of you?!
*do some more research into london etsy shops. afterall, i mean to be a better hand-made/craft correspondent
*think more deeply about some questions concerning poetry/poetics/theories of languages that have been clattering around in my brain.

but right now i want to shout a quick hello! to both the secret strangers and my other already-known readers. feel free to leave comments. i know you are out there--my google analytics say so. wink.
