Happy birthday, Mom!
around
Some moving and shaking has come and gone since we last spoke. I tried painting again, armed with brand new tools and supplies. I failed again and gave up again. I’m starting to think that drawing and painting are more separate acts than outside observers believe. Over the course of the past week or so […]
fool
Sometimes I sit down and I look at myself and I realize “God, I’m such a fool.” What am I doing out here in California? I’d like to tell myself I’m following some sort of dream. What dream? What dream am I capable of realizing? It rarely comes, but occasionally I can see with clarity […]
one sick world
Thursday I was so sick I left work after a half day (never done that before). I guess it was a cold because it didn’t crossover into my throat/lungs until late Saturday. I called off work Friday as well. Amy came over and I bored her to death because I didn’t want to move except […]
my sick space
okay so I’m getting sick again. everybody at work is telling me it is my allergies because of the wind (50mph gusts in Chatsworth). I don’t think so…but we’ll see. I know I’m fashionably late but I finally put up a Myspace page. This (meaning the site you’re on right now, not the myspace one) […]
SB
On Iyvesyboy’s birthday Amy and I visited her brother Andrew in Santa Barbra. We went to Pascucci restaurant for lunch and then sauntered down State Street before heading out to the pier. See pictures here . It sort of seemed like a retirement sort of place to me, very easy going. I’ve heard nice things […]
Paris, you’re fired!
Tuesday I saw Paris Hilton and company “driving†through the intersection of Laurel Canyon and Oxnard as I was coming home from work. If it had been Wednesday I would have been able to whip out my handy dandy new little camera…but it wasn’t…so you’ll have to trust me. I’m pretty sure it was her, […]
Everything okay in Texas
I realized that I do have family in Texas yesterday possibly affected by Rita. I gave my cousin Annie who lives in Woodlands Texas a call to see if she was alright. Here is a partial part of the email she sent me this morning: Andrew, Thanks for the call. I am fine. I stayed […]
go figure
So last night Amy and I decided to take a leisurely drive over Mulholland Drive after sun-down. Hey – if you want to know what Mulholland Drive looks like just keep a lookout for the new “driveable headlights” commercial for the VW passat (guy in passat follows cyclist at night). I just saw the ad […]
Ha ha! yes! I knew it!
so-called “Guitar legend” Esteban was stripped of his legendary status this week when it was discovered that he is an entirely fictional character created specifically to sell pressboard guitars in infomercials. Allan Holdsworth, guitar legend and president of “Real Guitar Legends For Truth” released a statement on Monday calling for the immediate cessation of all […]
