"Not once, but twice I left a pair of undies in the dryer of my boyfriend’s mother’s home.
She was nice enough to return them promptly both times, priority mail."
So, Amanda Ross-Ho is a multi-media installation artist who I sometimes enjoy.

There's a blog I really love called This Long Century which, if I'm to understand it,
has "guests" - usually artists - write a page about really anything they want, about
any image/s or people, things, etc. that seem to hold some significance for them.
I've actually referenced the blog before. I like it because instead of these artists talking
about their own work they talk about other peoples or, you know, funny stories or
photos they've come across in their days. Causal. I like that the blog lifts that divide.
But anyhow, one of my favorite 'guest pages' is Amanda Ross-Ho's. She just shares
some silly shit. I love it. Here are some bits, though you could just check it out!

"I made this crib note during my freshman year of high school in order to cheat on a Biology exam."
"As a teenager I was an avid journal keeper. It was an activity I occupied myself with primarily while cutting class—I think I thought I was leading myself in some sort of alternative curriculum. I compiled the following list over the course of several days in March of 1991."
This goes on for 38 pages.
