101/365 i know karate, voodoo too

Well I'm goin' out west
Where the wind blows tall
'Cause Tony Franciosa
Used to date my ma
They got some money out there
They're giving it away
I'm gonna do what I want
Do what I want
And I'm gonna get paid

Little brown sausages
Lying in the sand
I ain't no extra baby
I'm a leading man
Well my parole officer
WIll be proud of me
With my Olds 88
And the devil on a leash
My Olds 88
And the devil on a leash

Well I know karate, Voodoo too
I'm gonna make myself available to you
I don't need no make up
I got real scars
I got hair on my chest
I look good without a shirt

Well I don't lose my composure
In a high speed chase
Well my friends think I'm ugly
I got a masculine face
I got some dragstrip courage
I can really drive a bed
I'm gonna change my name
To Hannibal or maybe
Just Rex
Change my name to Hannibal
Or maybe just Rex

I'm gonna drive all night
Take some speed
I'm gonna wait for the sun
To shine down on me
I cut a hole in my roof
In the shape of a heart

And I'm goin' out west
Where they'll appreciate me
Goin' out west
Goin' out west

100/365 birds and blindfolds


100/365 birds and blindfolds, originally uploaded by katie cowden.

so here i am, on day 100. i had grand plans of making a hundred birds but my hands started to hurt from the scissors at an embarrassingly low number. the paper i cut them from was leftover from the "te amo" sign. i just discovered i have a couple dozen large sheets of it.

99/365 troublemaker


99/365 troublemaker, originally uploaded by katie cowden.

this girl gets herself into trouble too much, leaps before she looks, makes decisions she knows she will kick her ass later, procrastinates like there is no tomorrow, spends too much time in bed (not sleeping), knows regret like the back of her hand.
