firefly like fungi?
Tuesday, June 22, 2004

so yeah, I used to have a blog on another site... (fruhead.com)... it was where I was writing my book. turning my enties there into a kind of selfnarative/boohoo/funny story/diary thing that I hoped to get published this year. where my specialty lies is in the visual arts, pretty much anything visual and creative I can do. I do set design, scenic painting, costume design, light design, abstract painting, portraits, I'm a photographer, I take headshots when I need money and I do artistic stuff for my personal pleasure, pottery, stained glass art, welding, mixed media... and more I'm forgetting I'm sure. I live in hell-I mean maine. actually I like it here... I like to spend a lot of time at the beach... good thing about maine summers? it gets warm but its still so hazy and cloudy most tmes that a pale redheaded girl can be on the beach over and over again and not burn to a crisp. clames to fame? Stephen King lives in maine... he came into the theater I manage and complained about the cost of junior mints to me. also william defoe has run into me more than once and REMEMBERED me.

I don't really watch much tv... mostly because of the new found love the nation has with reality tv... (gag)... brutal. how did I come to fine firefly then? well my significant other moved in with me last month and being the typical tortured artist that I am I have insomnia, so one night I was looking for something to zone out to and popped in the first disc of firefly. I watched all of it in two days... and now I find myself out somewhere and I'm like, "dude, that guy looks amazingly like jayne!" and the point when I realized that every winter my gran made me what would later be called "jayne hats" for christmas? I think I have one that exact color too.

anyway the point of this long rambliness? firefly grows on me like a fungi and I'm new here and hi and stuff.

mainers have a tendancy to be... gruff, bleyddyn. its super hard to make friends here... (maine) ... part of it is that I just don't fit in well. I feel most comfortable conversing with people who are either much older than me or are unusually mature 20 somethings... which is not to say that I don't know how to and appretiate silly immature fun from time to time... its just that... I guess its the difference between people who can and can't tell when its the okay time for imatureity, if that makes any sense.

I'm not much more than a newbie myself, but welcome to the board, and to Firefly!

Whereabouts in Maine do you live? My Wife and I lived in Topsham for a year and a half before fleeing back to San Diego. I rather liked it, actually, but it did seem a lot harder to make friends there than here. I still miss winter, and real thunderstorms.
