Had my afternoon all planned and was going over to Bobs to help him with his computer, to the hardware to get a wrench, to the music store for a mic cord, but R wanted to watch the end of a movie we'd started Friday. I thought I'd just get it going for her and then take off but it totally sucked me in.The Whale Rider. Beautiful film. It's weird ( Read more... )

Well I finally sent off a Bach demo. At least I was pissing with the wind. Or in a couple months I'm be wealthy beyond my wildest dreams. I'll keep you posted ( Read more... )

OOOOOWEEEEBABY! It rained on my new garage roof! You know, the one with the hospital corners ( Read more... )

Got that tarp over the garage. It was a real ordeal but at least I didn't fall off the roof. Got some groovy scrapes and bruises tho. R says I put nice hospital corners on it ( Read more... )

Here are some weird facts about me. I do not like being around people who are casual acquaintences or passers by. For example I took a walk yesterday and as usual I didn't want to meet anybody or walk past anybody on the road. I do not even like cars passing me by.

Most of them seemed to really enjoy jumping through the hole although Blackie has to squeeze a little bit because she's so fat. Missy got another sweater. A rainbow one like my sox. It's beautiful. I took a pic but ( Read more... )

I see him around mostly in the summer. He's about my age and has white hair kinda punked up. He's always loud and friendly. I don't think he has a job. Maybe on some ( Read more... )

Well I had my gig. It was nice really. Started with a lot of chaos getting set up and sound check. Like many gigs. Acoustics were abyssmal and a sea of loud conversations but I had fun. I was relaxed and I could see people digging me all over the place. The speeches weren't too long and I played through most of my songs while people ate and talked ( Read more... )

Sunday is always a lazy do whatever I feel like doing day. So i installed a new keyboard that all the letters work on (aaaaaaaahhh!) and I made a poster for my computer help biz and i made some bread and I dug up some artichokes ( Read more... )

Took a walk yesterday in the sun, the usual route. I was thinking about how since the universe is kinda big there's probably somebody somewhere thinking the same thing you're thinking or doing the same thing you're doing at the same time you're thinking or doing it. So if you start thinking about them then they're going to be thinking about you ( Read more... )
