URGENT :: DREAMPOSTCARDS

***** URGENT HELP REQUEST ******

i love postsecret.com [a place where people anonymously send their deepest, darkest secrets].

i want to make a version [positive] of that webpage where people mail me their secret dreams and ambitions: what they would love to do with their life if there were no restrictions--their biggest dreams.

to start: i will "hide" postcards with my address, postage and instructions around new zealand. but hopefully i'll get unsolicited cards once the word gets around.

FROME YOU, i need a good name....

things like secretdream and dreampost.com are taken.... but what do you think about dreampostcards.com ??? it's available.

* do you have a better name?

* can you improve upon this project somehow?

i hope to start hiding postcards within 48 hours.

feeling [currently, strep]

medium :: sharpie, canvas, colors [grass, carnation petal, dandelion]
self-portrait

i really, really, really want a "rapid strep test" tomorrow. that way, by day's end i can have amoxicillin preventing new streptococcus pyogenes from forming cell walls.

...but i think the art says that clearly.

*****UPDATE*****
drugs are pumping through my blood and i feel so very relieved. <sigh>
*****/UPDATE*****

the gift of math

it's a fact [known] that i own math superhero costumes and wear them on occasion.
it's a fact [known, sad] that i have very little art on my NZ walls.

announcement :: tasha's sister painted murals of me fighting dinosaurs [easy] with math.

i submitted a story on a postcard that ended with a predetermined line so that it fit in with the next postcard.
