It’s not art, it’s programming

Sorry if this image makes you feel disgusted. I hate looking at my own blog but, this is something I feel is necessary.

I’ve been making selections based on if I could really see myself in the man’s presence, as if we actually already know each other. I guess I can do that based on past friendships. Some people we know, no matter how attractive we think they are, are rarely or never going to friend us. Cues we can get from a variety of things. That’s what I’m making my selections on, positive visual cues.

I can picture this guy as the type of guy who’d be the kind of person who’d want to hang out around me. After his buddies left and we were alone, he’d want to get naked for sure because a woman couldn’t satify all his needs. Gawd, I’m making myself horny this morning!

In case you’re wondering, these men are BETTER examples than provided for the Match.com test I took a couple months ago. Physical Attraction Test

When I lived in SF, CA I was never around construction workers. I was mostly around artists, writers, dancers, academics, and such types. I think I could get into some new friends if I moved back. Tod works on the construction of the New SF-Oakland Bay bridge. I wonder if he thought he’d be plopped on somebody’s blog 3000 miles away?

Gallery Openings

Another round of gallery openings last night. There are so many new galleries in Miami that I cannot go to every opening. I haven’t been to an opening in Coral Gables in so long it seems years. At one time I was there gallery hopping monthly but, the art wasn’t so good back then. Mostly I do N. Miami (around MoCA) and the Wynood (last night) and Miami Design District (last night) as the latter are two districts right next to each other. Anyway I was impressed with the quality of the figurative work now showing. Also, the two MFA artists showing at FAU were impressive. I’ve had so much on my plate I haven’t had time to gather my thoughts (and notes) to write something. I did, at least, get some images. I’ve got finals to finish up this coming week then I can get to it.
