this blog is dead to me. go here-
aorta's new blog
i am one. i say that as i sit here on my big fat butt eating chocolate chip ice cream for breakfast. eating ice cream thinking about walking my bike to the shop to get it fixed. and dreading it because hotties work there and the last thing i want any of them to see is my big butt riding away after it's fixed.
i like myself more than this so i don't know why i do it. and i definitely like my bicycle more than i like those bike geeks.my sales have come to a screeching halt, but i got a lot of work done. it was mostly a cephalopod week. i did 3 new squid ties. i really like this one because the tie already had a joan miro print on it.

i also really like the white one. i suppose calling it art fag might offend a few people. but it comes from a very fitting dead milkmen song. and i love fags, so whatever.
squid for the ladies- a skirt and a cardigan-

so many octopi! i made 4 skirts and a dress. they go much faster when i do them in groups. 



i wanted to make the fruit octopus an octowuss, but it looked like those costume groucho marx glasses with the nose attatched-
the glasses worked perfectly for the dress.
i also did a very cute dunce skirt

a funny booze shirt (funny as in obnoxious color combo)

i already had some pills cut out so i thought i better use them. i really like the cut of this skirt- very 80's, yet flattering
i did this a few weeks ago for a consignor but ended up listing it on etsy-
today i finished this bird shirt that i started almost a month ago-

and finally my favorite item of the week, the paper hat dress. i am hesitant to list it online because it's so fitted. even the sleeves have little snaps at the wrists...
What's something you should throw away, but can't?
1/3 of everything i own. 3/4 of my socks.
How have people mispronounced your name? How is it supposed to sound?
Submitted by Lorie.
my middle and last names seem to really stump people.
wynne- pronounced win. the most common mispronunciations are wine and wayne.
plymate- playmate is easily the most common. there's only one a, thank you.
i wish i had an infinite supply of sx-70 film. i have a recurring dream where i'm just taking polaroids of people and things and my refrigerator is filled with film. it sucks to wake up from one of those.
in 1996 a band on Allied records used one of my polaroids for the cover of their album. click here to see the amazon listing for it. i was so incredibly flattered; i had never considered taking them anything more than a hobby.
You must have been a fashion victim at least once in your life. What hideous blunder did you commit?

in 5th grade i had a frost and tip; thanks mom. i had sort of a feathery she-mullet in the 80's. in the 90's i had 2 tone hair-pink bangs with the rest green. i won't even go into some of the clothes i used to wear. they're best forgotten. does anyone remember "authentic dweebie"?
wow, i feel old.
