Met my sister for 1st time today. We were both born at this hospital in the ‘60s & adopted away by our birth mother. I was adopted by a nurse from the hospital, my wonderful mom, while Bobbi’s journey took her elsewhere. Found each other cuz I spit in the ancestry dot com kit.

@_dariussimpson These lines from Frank O’Hara’s “To the Harbormaster” run through my head all the time: Yet I trust the sanity of my vessel; and if it sinks, it may well be in answer to the reasoning of the eternal voices, the waves which have kept me from reaching you.

I scored at the thrift store today - 3 bucks for this Robert Indiana Love, 1966, silkscreen. I've since removed it from the ugly frame and found a little water damage on the back. But wow, a dream come true.

Sad to hear about the death of Tom Phillips, who began altering a forgotten Victorian novel, A Human Document, in 1970. His altered version became the stunningly beautiful A Humament: A Treated Victorian Novel.

Favorite drawing I’ve ever done - Uncle Mike. He was sketchily employed & living with us, circa ‘79, when I was about 10. He chased me through the house threatening to destroy it until I agreed to redact his name. Not sure why he was angry, I thought he was a recumbent god.
