c london. week 60. double c-naped.

2011-08-28T17:27:00.000+01:00

C chicago. week 59. c-naped.

2011-08-22T19:58:00.001+01:00

I did not want to worry anyone, but I had not been able to find c since I returned from B's house in NY.

I thought she must be hiding in one of the boxes that fill our apartment.

Then, late last night I received the following:

I will let you know when I hear more.

c london. week 59. Rotary Club.

2011-08-17T21:16:00.000+01:00

after over a week of being homeless i was picked up by a member of the Westminster East

Rotary Club.

what a generous bunch! i might become their first miniature member.

C... does this count as a job?

c chicago... i hope you are feeling better soon.

try to wake up with a smile and life will soon have a sunny cast.

c london. week 58. a new friend.

2011-08-15T08:53:00.001+01:00

after a week of being homeless i started to really miss C.

when i woke this morning a funny little animal was cuddled up with me.

we are now friends. his name is d.

c chicago. week 58. oh the happy memories.

2011-08-14T20:14:00.000+01:00

last week I got to visit the cabin in the mountains with C's family.
last time I was there was the first time I encountered snow!

these fond sentiments are all that are keeping me going from my present location.

c

p.s. help

c london. week 57. the fairy tale is over.

2011-08-08T13:21:00.000+01:00

i was embarrassed to discuss it before... but ever since i returned home things haven't been so good.

when my camera broke and C let me use hers i admittedly did not appreciate it.

i am on the street until i get a job.

c chicago. week 57. house B.

2011-08-06T23:26:00.000+01:00

dear c london,

i have been thinking a lot about

place

home.

this week C and i helped B move into his new house.

the house is on a hill. and B thinks it looks like a space ship.

which makes me a bit nostalgic for my dreams of space travel!

however, I am being here now and helping B get all set up

for life up on his hill.

the textures inside are most intriguing.

p.s. There is dew on the grass in the morning, so Big C took the opportunity to buy some new galoshes with honey bees upon them.

c chicago. week 56. apartment c&C.

2011-08-02T16:18:00.001+01:00

our new place!!

c Chicago. Week 56. In transit

2011-08-02T07:36:00.000+01:00

Hi c London,
This is a filler photo. In the last 3 days C, B and i have done the following tasks: moved C and I into a new apartment in Chicago, filled a truck up with B's stuff, drove 12 hours to Corning NY and tomorrow we are all heading to B's new place in Oeonta NY. Phew. Good to be in a bed.

C and I took some pix in our new apartment yesterday, but are having trouble uploading them.
Hopefully we can share soon. The internet will be spotty for the next week. Communication might be on a delay.

mini c chicago

c london. week 56. heros...

2011-07-31T16:58:00.012+01:00

i stumbled across a small hero memorial garden this week...

i had to share.

p.s. i figured out a way to use c's camera.

c chicago. week 55. self portraits

2011-07-25T00:50:00.001+01:00

c,
Today C did a performance at the University of Chicago with Ann Boyd and friends, a devised piece called The Yellow House. I went down to check it out (and liked it! C performed, which was nice!).

i came upon a sea of big C portraits! which went a long way explaining how I have such a natural ability to draw.

p.s.
I know. I got your message about space. I wish I could be there now. Unfortunately the Shuttle Mission has been terminated. President Obama assures me that I can complete my mission (which was his request in the first place!) but I am still waiting for the alignment.

Also, C and B are moving next week. Turns out C and i are getting our own apartment. So I am home helping to pack up. More soon!!

c london. week 55. conundrum...

2011-07-24T19:42:00.002+01:00

so my camera is off getting fixed by a professional for way too much money.

C is letting me use hers until i get mine back.

there is only one small issue...

c chicago. week 54. self portrait

2011-07-18T06:44:00.000+01:00

Dear c,
So sorry to hear about your camera! I hope you can get a professional to look at it!

I have decided to take up drawing.

Wanted to capture that girl in the mirror!

Hmmm. What to draw next?

c

c london. week 54. camera...

2011-07-14T09:25:00.000+01:00

so i turned my camera on this morning and it wasn't working...

i thought maybe i could fix it.... but it is pretty complicated.

i really screwed this one up!

looks like a year of photos has proven to take a toll...

c london. week 54. tidbit.

2011-07-14T08:38:00.000+01:00

c....

you were in my dream last night.

you were rowing down a river with a small army of lego men.

c chicago. week 53. Year 2!!!!!!!!!

2011-07-10T20:48:00.000+01:00

happy c-new years!!

Our menu included:

2011-07-10T17:13:00.002+01:00

c , C and C

our one year skype celebration was so much fun!

c chicago. week 52

2011-07-03T23:05:00.000+01:00

although a 2D version really is not the same.

c chicago. week 52. resolution

2011-07-03T23:00:00.002+01:00

I couldn't think of where I should go.

Are you here?

Have I lost my mind?

At the only place I could think of, I hoped you would show up again.

Again I felt you beside me.

Finally I turned around.

Big C claims this was not a joke. She thought I could use a friend my own size.

2D c london, isn't so bad...

c Chicago. week 52. you aren't home.

2011-07-03T22:44:00.000+01:00

I rushed to your apartment to investigate if you have actually been living there this whole time.

I whistled up

no response.

I ran to the backyard

no one there...

up your back porch

and no C or c.

c london. week 52. c & c

2011-07-03T21:42:00.001+01:00

wow c... a whole year apart.

i found something curious today...

are there other c's out there who were born on the same day?

or is this our grave...

maybe an extraterrestrial explanation for this?

c chicago. week 52. HAS THIS BLOG BEEN A DREAM!

2011-07-03T15:21:00.001+01:00

I woke up this morning with a start.
Yesterday you felt truly beside me.
Has this entire blog been a dream?

In some sort of Fight Club/M. Night Shyamalan delusional twist?
Did you never move away? Have you been with me this whole time?

c chicago. week 52. beside me.

2011-07-03T06:15:00.000+01:00

dear c, our one year anniversary is the end of this week, propelling us into the c new year.

C's friend Nick greeted her today with "Happy Anniversary!".

She was pretty psyched to find out that he was up to date with the blog.

I wonder how many people out there know about us!

C and I spent the afternoon at the Montrose Beach. I am feeling nostalgic for our origins. I so enjoyed our first photo shoot; you, me, and the 2 big C's tromping around Chicago taking our pictures with Lorado Taft sculptures.

Although it was a lovely day at the beach, all I could think about was how I missed you.

While looking out across Lake Michigan, imagining it was the ocean and you were on the other side, I could almost feel your presence with me.

Struck with this intense need to reconnect, C and I jumped on her bike and rushed to the place of our first photo shoot ever.

I am sure you remember. Eternal Silence at Graceland. How could we ever forget? We were kicked out of the cemetery for being disrespectful. In some ways I am glad it was closed when I arrived...that security guard was intense!

I could swear I felt you right beside me.

What could this mean?! Are you here?!

both c's in chicago!

c chicago. week 51. our first c-day

2011-06-27T07:56:00.000+01:00

Happy c-day to you my dear c!!

I hope Big C London took you back and celebrated our c-day with you!

Big C Chicago asked me to join her for some birthday festivities in Cape Cod!

While I turned the big 1st c-day, C's Grandmother turned 90!

Us birthday girls decided to celebrate our c-day's together.

I also got to meet more of Big C's family. I had meet the Donovan side already, but got to meet the Warren's! I met her 2nd cousins Zoe & Liv, who live in Vienna.

Livi and I totally hit it off, like 2 peas in a pod!

Maybe I can go visit them someday in Europe (and stop on my way to visit you in London of course!!)

Much love and c-day wishes,

your c

c london. week 51. home.

2011-06-25T13:59:00.000+01:00

i decided i better go home...

i have been gone for so many weeks...

deceiving you c

and C...

C must be pretty upset cause when i came down my street all of my stuff was out with the rubbish.

c chicago. week 50. space

2011-06-20T07:59:00.003+01:00

every night i look through my telescope and wait for the alignment.
nothing doing.
wait wait wait.

any so, space sure is pretty!

C London. Week 50. Little liar.

2011-06-19T12:51:00.000+01:00

mini c has been missing for weeks after her disaster with the Royal wedding...

I came across this photo of her on the internet.

Passed out in a London pub!

c london. week 49. the air is thinning up here...

2011-06-14T00:23:00.000+01:00

why don't i see anyone i recognize?

c chicago. week 49. zero gravity training

2011-06-13T07:08:00.001+01:00

Big C chicago is feeling better, so I have returned to my training at NASA.

Woo hoo!!!!

c chicago. week 48. chelsea-sick

2011-06-07T05:56:00.000+01:00

I got a call from big C Chicago telling me that she hasn't been feeling well AND has been working 12 hour days on a film shoot (production designing the independent feature film: Nate & Margaret) for the past week and a half! I decided to fly home for the weekend and take care of her.

I will return to NASA as soon as C is feeling better. Hopefully the alignment will take place and I can go off on my big mission! Wait wait wait.

c London. week 48. Pari-dise.

2011-06-06T10:12:00.000+01:00

this world up in the clouds is quite grand...

but even so, i am starting to find myself getting a bit homesick.

c chicago. week 47. delayed transmission from NASA.

2011-05-31T06:05:00.000+01:00

Sorry for the delay. Here is my report from week 47:

Found tunnel on NASA compound.

Explored.

Discovered someone else at the other end.

She was just like me, but different.

What can this mean?

c chicago. week 47. memorial day weekend.

2011-05-30T03:02:00.000+01:00

Hi friends,
Here at NASA everyone is on Memorial break and I cannot seem to upload my pictures onto the computer. I should be able to by tomorrow---somebodies gotta come in, right?! I can't take a break---still staring out a telescope each night waiting...

In anticipation,
c chicago

c London. week 47. up in the clouds.

2011-05-25T10:32:00.000+01:00

this whole death thing has turned out to be kind of amazing...

c, i thought you would meet me up here...

don't worry i was joined by an old friend.

c Chicago. week 46. reaching out.

2011-05-23T06:30:00.000+01:00

c London. week 46. the rapture.

2011-05-22T22:01:00.007+01:00

i was homeward bound on my doorstep at 6pm on may 21st

when a blinding light whisked me away... to a magical wonderland of

clouds

c Chicago. week 45. midnight viewing.

2011-05-16T07:03:00.000+01:00

c London,

So sorry the navy seals never arrived.

I have been spending my days trying to negotiate with the British ambassador.

President Obama made some calls. Turns out the Queen was aggrieved regarding the cake.

Glad to see you got out of there.

I hate to think of you in prison.

Ironic that you busted out at midnight, I have been involved in some midnight activities as well:

I am back at NASA working on my secret mission, patiently waiting for the proper alignment. Each night I stare through my telescope and wait.
Should be any day now...

c London. week 45. midnight escape.

2011-05-15T22:10:00.001+01:00

i waited six more days for Navy seals to bust me out of here...

but none arrived, so i was forced to take a different approach.

these images taken from a nearby security camera are being played all over the bbc...

i'm in deep.

c chicago. week 44. irish containment.

2011-05-08T17:22:00.002+01:00

i meant to keep this part of the Ireland trip a secret....

in brief: Nancy Murphy's Pub, a bloke called me "small", whiskey,

and this MINI C-lancy Lowered Her Boom!

needless to say, i know what imprisonment feels like.

hope you get an acquittal soon!

maybe i will go on protest. or perhaps Obama can write a letter of support, I'll talk to him later today.

week 44. containment.

2011-05-08T14:12:00.000+01:00

nine days of imprisonment so far... not sure when i am getting out.

c Chicago. week 44 (recap of week 43). THE Royal Wedding. B-Lo style.

2011-05-02T15:30:00.000+01:00

dear c&C London!
your film is amazing! (i hope c got out of jail.)
surely after the festivities the queen forgives you!
i want to make a film. maybe soon.

this weekend I also went to a Royal Wedding.

they had a photobooth at the reception:

B&C&me:

the lovely bride and groom!

the party:

There were so many people in the booth that last one that they shut it down.

That is how we wedding in Buffalo.

Love to the Bride & Groom!

And now I think I will have to return to my work at NASA after a 3 week siesta.

c London. week 43. cake.

2011-04-29T14:58:00.000+01:00

C London. week 43. The Royal Wedding

2011-04-29T14:46:00.005+01:00

c Chicago. week 43. Ireland Trip. Part 3. Cliffs of Moher

2011-04-26T02:46:00.000+01:00

The Cliffs of Moher were my favorite.

They definitely made me feel my mini-ness.

c week 43. Ireland Trip. Part 2.

2011-04-26T02:41:00.001+01:00

Here are some more pix from C Chicago & my trip to Ireland (with the fam):

Powerscourt Gardens in Enniskerry, Ireland

Bru Na Boinne! A passage tomb constructed by neolithic architects in 3000 BC with perfect alignment to allow the winter solstice sunrise to penetrate into the inner chamber!

Makes me remember how we were kicked out of Graceland Cemetary our first week of the blog,

and here I am sitting in front of the roof box at Newgrange,

a neolithic monument older than Stonehedge and the Pyramids.

c Ireland (Chicago). week 42. trip to Ireland! part 1

2011-04-25T04:48:00.001+01:00

this week C and I went to Ireland with her family!!

We stayed at the Ritz Carlton Powerscourt Hotel!

it was great to finally get out of C's traveling bag. turns out she hadn't purchased me a plane ticket, so I had to spend 10 hours in her backpack.

the hotel was lovely, with a gorgeous view of a garden. so nice to be away from work for a while.

Our first big adventure was to Glendalaugh. A ruin of a monastic settlement.

This is an old window of a church. The stone work here blows me away (almost literally).

All of a sudden, so that C could concentrate on some "drawings", she put me in this stone box, high up. What the.... although it was kind of cozy.

All these castles and cathedrals make me feel epic.

This land has such a longer history than our 42 weeks.

After our long first day of traveling, I decided I wanted to stay at the cathedral.

no more driving on those crazy small corkscrew Irish roads for me.

more soon, i am exhausted with jet lag just now.

c London. week 42. sicily.

2011-04-24T22:15:00.000+01:00

so just returned from an amazing trip to sicily where i met some long lost ancestors form the Calato family.

highlights...

a pupi shop...

napping with some pals i met at 500bc old greek ruins...

the mediterranean...

but now i am back in London...

only 5 more days left til the royal wedding

i found myself a bit stumped so i had to reflect back on my original ideas...

so little time.

i can't disappoint the Queen.

c Chicago. week 41. happy b-day to my cc.

2011-04-15T23:02:00.002+01:00

p.s. As C wrote below, I arrived home here in Chicago in the wee hours of the morning, only to find myself stuck in a tree. Of course before C helped me down she took the opportunity to take some pictures. Isn't that just like her; all for art she be. Anywho, I too am taking a week break, from my work at NASA, to visit Ireland with C and her family. The whole Donovan-Warren clan is heading to our homeland! Hope to make it past immigration...

C Chicago. week 41. c in a tree.

2011-04-15T22:58:00.000+01:00

dear c & C,

I woke up this morning to find c and her parachute stuck hanging from a tree in our backyard.

She had parachuted down from space and had been hanging in the tree for hours.

It had started to rain.

Thank goodness she is alright and that she got home in time to fly to Ireland with me tomorrow!

How funny, you 2 are off to Italy and we are off to Ireland!

Cannot wait to see your travel photos.

Most sincerely,

c London. week 41. i need an assistant.

2011-04-13T21:58:00.000+01:00

C burst into my studio and took these photos.

i have sooo much to do!

my project for the Royal Wedding is only in bits and pieces...

not enough time.

anyways, she came in to tell me we are all going to Sicily for the weekend!

pretty sweet... bad timing, but pretty pretty sweet!

c from chicago. week 40! Le Petit Mission.

2011-04-11T08:32:00.003+01:00

Le Petit Mission. 1.a: avert United States government shut down.

1.b. seek extraterrestrial help balancing the budget.

outcome: crisis averted.

c London. week 40. carry that weight.

2011-04-10T22:25:00.017+01:00

it's week 40... holy @*($(&%+%&$&_*$##!!

just wanted to share a couple things i came across while out and about this week doing some research for

Her Majesty...

i found this sweet wall that tons of people would come together and write on...

"Abbey Road Studios"

not sure what that is but i made sure to leave my mark.

c... i think i know why your lover boy mini cc has not corresponded lately..

because i ran into him here in London!!

making a film!

check it out!

The End

c from Chicago. week 39. week 1 at NASA.

2011-04-04T06:06:00.001+01:00

dear c,
My meeting with President Obama was in strictest confidence, so I cannot discuss much here (I suspect the Russians are monitoring the blog and don't want to start another space race, although maybe Nick, Colin, Andrew Johnson and I can race for space! RACE FOR SPACE!). C and I were able to catch up via cell phone (I believe you call them mobile phone's now?). C gave me her old cell phone and it is completely ridiculous! How can I show my face at NASA with that thing? Anyway, she seems good, in tech again, this time at the Next Theatre for The Metal Children.

I have started my work here planning our next space mission. Hopefully soon I can announce our destination!

More soon,
c

p.s. I am actually starting to miss C. I hope I am not away too long.

c London. week 39. nightmare Queen.

2011-04-04T00:05:00.005+01:00

it is the month of the wedding...

and the stress is really getting to me.

i have so little time to accomplish my task.

i keep having nightmares

that i am late for my meeting with the Queen.

i can never quite catch the bus.

and when i finally arrive...

she has already gone.

c Chicago. week 38. Pizza with President Obama.

2011-03-28T07:03:00.001+01:00

c London. week 38. comedy club.

2011-03-27T00:28:00.003Z

i found myself sitting in the front row of a comedy club tonight...

i was being heckled by Craig the comedian.

for some reason he thought i was mental for bringing a larger version of myself with me.

http://twitter.com/thecraigmurray/statuses/51821676446490628

a pic with the funny guy himself.

on my way home i met a new friend.

he lives in the market where william wallace was hung and quartered

have you ever seen the movie braveheart?

c Chicago. week 37. breakfast and a goodbye.

2011-03-21T19:55:00.001Z

this morning C and I had breakfast together and discussed our future plans.

C opened 2 shows this weekend (Sinbad and Caucasian Chalk Circle) and is now on spring break

(she refuses to get out of her robe for a full week!).

My plan is to leave today for a meeting with President Obama.

And then on to NASA and somewhere in outer space I guess.

I hailed a cab and prepared myself to no longer be c chicago, at least for a few weeks.

c Chicago. week 35. a reply

2011-03-07T07:23:00.001Z

I have attempted to spend the past week considering Obama's proposal.

But the more I tried to think about space, the more I couldn't get my mind off of mini cc and his lack of contact.

With a desperate desire to avoid having this week's blog post once again be me in front of the computer starring at a screen waiting....I decided to help C out with some set painting.

And then, after a few days of hard labor, I composed a message to President Obama.

I wonder if this means I will move to Washington? That could be dangerous....I would then be in the same city as mini cc. Or maybe I will go directly to Florida.

He hasn't posted on our blog in a month and I haven't heard from him.

Then a package came in the mail.

Inside was.... a key!

In a heart?

Dear ms. mini c,

You have proven to be the rightful holder of the key. Therefore, I am writing to inform you that there has been a horrible tragedy in the planning of the Royal Wedding. You are being summoned to step in and help under one very important condition. Are you of English decent?

Yours sincerely,

Queen Elizabeth II

c london. week 30. celebrity..

2011-01-30T19:04:00.000Z

i was put in the position where two english children were asked to rate me out of 10.

after they analyzed me in long deep thought one said, "9.5"

then the other, "i would have to say 9.5 as well"

they went on to ask C "do you do celebrities?"

if i were a celebrity would i have been rated a 10?

c london. week 30. the crown and post.

2011-01-30T18:44:00.000Z

i received an unmarked letter in the mail this week...

inside was a keyhole, and nothing else. not sure what to do yet.

the weather here is chilly, and gray.

i feel like i have seen that toy theatre of yours before in a dream.

c Chicago. week 30. empty theatre

2011-01-30T17:35:00.000Z

c,
I finished building this great theatre from a typewriter case. It is perfect for doing a show with mini mini c. But c, and our friends out there, I cannot think of what to perform. I am stuck.

I was going to originally do a piece in which I mocked C for being such a busy-work-a-holic.

But lately we have been getting along pretty well (time will tell).

Does anyone have any suggestions for something for me to work on?

I think I have a bit of urban malaise.

Or maybe more specifically, Chicago winter, no sun, always dark by 5 -malaise.

What's the weather like in London?

Maybe I will just go back to space.

Missing you, c

C London. week 29. get a job.

c Chicago. week 28. einstein in my dream!

2011-01-16T15:34:00.001Z

i woke with a start!
all i can remember is that Einstein and mini mini c were having a secret meeting in which Einstein told mini mini c the secret equation of space travel.

maybe this is a sign that I need to send mini mini c to space first? but she doesnt have legs!

i wish i could go back to bed.
