how much is that dead bird in the window

yesterday i went walking through chinatown to take pictures of dead animals for my thesis project. later this week i have to buy a bird and take pictures of a lovely lady pulling it apart. things are on their way...

Also in chinatown i videoed a fish dying after being tossed into a water-less basin. I want to go back and talk more to the butchers. The friend I was with said that while i was filming the other fish he saw them take a fish, skin it live THEN chop its head off. It's mouth was still going "blub blub blub" apprently. anyway...here are some graphic images

because this is miserable i have a few things to say

i can't be there to stop you and it claws at my little heart. please come down

My horoscope, according to the all knowing Rob Brezsny, says I should start a blog---or start actually using the one I already have.  ---And since i'm superstitious, privy/prone to positive manipulation, i say why not.  -Challenge accepted-   Now I will hold myself accountable to do work (do work well), because I will be forced to see it's slime trail...or lack there of.

Since my mum is coming in town Tuesday, I should really be getting my room in order.
  I would like some awesome crate-on-the-wall storage please.
