If we keep it up, we'll show the haters
It's gonna be soon not later

Hey! let's get known!
If we work real hard, we can buy some matching clothes
For our live shows

Look at the ants on the floor
They work real hard, lifting 3 times their mass
And sometimes more

So what do you say?
Let's get known
Let's have 3 spotlights shining
With all our work shown

What do you say? it's all on the line..

>>INSPIRING...i wanna get known. I may be having a window display in a small convenient store on the corner of 7th street in downtown PGH. A-thinking up ideas... ohlala.

Thinking: A Guide to Free Fun in Pittsburgh...? and sum sneariously serious monsters.

>>Upon arrival in Ohio...I leave next Saturday for a month. Keep the big city warm for me while I'm away.

2008-10-22T20:57:00.007-04:00

i painted more rocks a few afternoons ago in my wonderful art room with the mt washington sun hitting my toes. yesterday morning while on my way to work i had a letter to mail a friend and my "have free fun" rock in my hand. put the letter in the blue box and then the pink shiny rock in the fake tree park across from work. i watched it all day while i was downtown and it never moved, until! this morning i looked for my rock and it was gone. thank goodness! i hope someone is enjoying!

(sue neary: december 2007)

my mother got me into painting rocks while i was a little lady in wadsworth ohio, probably a form of "refecting" about the world around me. today, just as everyday, i miss my mom.
