It was a cute boy in 1984. He wore a parka with a Jam patch and while I cannot recall his name -- southern Ontario, so it was either Dave, Gord, or Jody -- I'm still listening to Paul Weller. #paulweller #shipoffools #musicsky youtu.be/SGjj-YQUYT4

one of the guests at #PoverelloHouse requested blue flutterbyes... so i am adding flutterbyes to the mural :: me in my awesome hat that people covet and i tell them, "hardware store!" :: the veggie lettuce wrap from James Jonathan is predominantly iceberg lettuce, and so i remained hungry

a mural by Molly Kiely is underway on the exterior garden wall at Tucson Poverello House -- a daytime shelter for homeless adults, where they can shower, do laundry, find fellowship, and get a hot meal

Molly poses in the mirror at Tucson Poverello House a blue sleeveless shirt and a giant sombrero that would make Speedy Gonzales envious

a veggie lettuce wrap containing two slices of tomato, four slices of cucumber, a slice of mystery process cheese, some sort of mayonnaise "sauce" -- and lots of iceberg lettuce
