.Chicago.

Chicago. Should be known as. CHIC.ago. Because This place is Clean and Well Put Together. Even when there is a wind. not breeze. WIND. from the North.

Wow. No Garbage in my Face. (bye.bye. Philth.a.delphia)

I did find a highway pass in Chicago’s Pilsen area that reminds me of my ol’studio home. aw. I don’t go there often. (giggle)

New Days. New Life. Cherish What I Had. Cherish What I Got.

What? Wow. Artsy-Fartsy kids not wearing clothing held on by several strings. Wow. like. I only saw three Flannel Shirts at that art opening. What!? Combed Hair. Wow.

Nice. Everything. Chic. Period.

I’ve been in transition. Exciting. Frustrating. Frightening. Enlightening.

I was very used to defining myself as the dirty. hard-working. elusive. alley cat in the little city of Philadelphia. Manager of J.Silverman Ceramics. CO-Founder of the Coho Crew.

A Gal just getting through the days and nights. Fleeting moments of happiness. Fleeting moments of sadness. Just feeling. Being. Living.

Now. I’m a MRS. I feel. I feel Love. I’ve never known such GUSH.I.NESS.

(it is a precious feeling. precious and strong as a diamond. i would have hated my husband and i this time. last year. or. like..five months ago. !)

I’m about to plunge into the unknown.to me.ceramic circle here in Chicago. I signed up as an independent student (continuing my venture in “Utility is Useless without the User”) at Lincoln Square Pottery Studio.

Tomorrow. I have an interview at LILLStreet Art Center. ! I want to make people smile. I’m offering my free happy and go for it ceramic knowledge. YUP. YUP. YUP.

.First Video.

The first segment of ”Utility is Useless Without the User” is UP.

07.01.11

During the Dusk. Near an old alley in Old City. I will be slutting up my pieces with crisp cold water in my decanter.

Thirty vessels available for you, whomever you may be.

Accept my offer. Celebrate the moment. Keep the Vessel (give it a home). Or. I destroy the Vessel.

UTILITY IS USELESS WITHOUT THE USER.

i’m serious.

I enjoy the BlogSpot stuff. Don’t get me wrong. But. there is something that intrigues me about having a site that i can have tabs on=sectioning off those facets of fancy which race.pace.and ladida. through my mind. LilDiddiesandLadida.blogspot.com will still remain the same. i will occasionally post videos and poetry that may enlighten or entertain.

My scholarly and creative ventures will be captured on this here RingJingling.wordpress.com.ness

Why ring.jingling well. DuH. the audible symbolism of the bell -happy smiles and casting demons to haste.sho.sho.go away- mean a great deal to me.

!YaY!
