I keep missing the bus. Literally, I mean. Last week I was standing there reading a book (Neon Wilderness), the bus pulled up, ten minutes later I found myself deep in the Mission instead of over at Caltrain. Thursday I was headed down to my pop's to do some sculpting. A little white scottie walked by. I started admiring his fancy sweater and ( Read more... )

I haven't told anybody. It would be absolutely self-defeating for me to do so. After six weeks, the average day is both thrilling and terrifying. It's all very precarious.

Am I suddenly Mr Roper here? Man, my ocd just won't let go of this - I really have an issue with guns. I don't mind if peope are into them or ( Read more... )

I ordered new checks from Bank of America today. The old ones, from when I lived in Point Richmond, had the incorrect city and name and read:

"Robley Brownw
3 W Richmond Ave
Paint Richmond, Ca
94801"

Bank of America now charges $12 for new checks.

I wasn't foolin' -- Ray Dennis Steckler, the best b-movie director ever, received one of the Kogar Awards that I made! Wow!
