7:27 a.m. - 2004-10-23 Seeing Aaron's work changed my mind; his style is very Luis Royo, very Boris Vallejo. Kind of eerie sexy, and I can never get used to the idea of chain mail bikinis. I mean, you either need the armor or you don't. So I agreed to do a film with Neil, which he showed later at the campus art gallery. It's called "Ninja Homeless," and it stars me, and I have a copy which I make my friends watch all the time. They are getting sick of it. The film begins in a public bathroom, and all you see at first is feet, which are my feet. Ninja Homeless (played by me) has built a sleep loft in a toilet stall. She wakes up, yawns and stretches, and eases out of her loft. Then Ninja Homeless dresses in her armor, which consists of a football helmet and lots of padding held on by duct tape. Once all my armor is on I look twice my normal width but still pretty small. Then you see a scene--which is repeated several times throughout the movie--of me sliding headfirst downstairs, protected by my padded armor. Next I am outside, deliberately bumping into trees and parked cars and deliberately falling down to show how strong my armor is. I smile at the camera and punch myself all over because my armor protects me from harm. Then I want to get people on the street to punch me, too, but none of them can see me (other actors, of course) because I am Ninja Homeless.
