"Was it a dream where... you see yourself standing in sort of sun-god robes, on a pyramid with a thousand naked women screaming and throwing little pickles at you?" |

Apartment Hopping
After two nights at Lloyd's, Justin and I headed over to Jackson Heights to meet up with Carrie and Tom. Like yesterday, we woke up pretty late in the afternoon and our first meal was around 3:00 PM. The door to Lloyd's building. Apparently, his is the only apartment on [read more...]

I :heart: New York!
Out and about in the Big Apple. Taking pictures, have no doubt. I get back into town on Wednesday, so I might not have a chance to update before then. If I find time at some Internet cafes, I'll try to update. No promises though... :) [read more...]

Jim's Birthday!
My good friend from college, Jim, came into town today to celebrate his birthday. I hadn't done a good job organizing things, and a few folks were out of town this weekend. It ended up just being me and Jim, which was actually great since I can't recall the [read more...]

Dueling Pianos
Well, I'm off in about 15 minutes to a place called "Howl at the Moon." Dueling piano bar, I believe. Meeting up with Jim and Sally (his wife, another good friend from college), Sally's sister Ann and maybe some other folks. Should be interesting. :) [read more...]

Hangover | Ritual
Oof. I've spent a good part of the day with a dull headache. It's not crippling, but strong enough to really keep me from doing anything remotely productive. It's after 2 PM here, and I'm still not feeling all that right. There was a great deal of alcohol consumed last [read more...]
Howl At The Moon
After what seemed like an hour (and it may well have been that long) waiting outside, we finally get in to the joint. I cannot tell you the last time I had to actually stand in a line to get into a place to drink booze. But - I [read more...]

Oddly
I woke up feeling pretty great this morning. I kept hitting the snooze button, but instead of painfully clawing my way into consciousness... I slowly, comfortably made my way awake. I put on a shirt I haven't worn in a long time, and... and... dare I say it? I thought [read more...]
The Russian

Inspiration. Or Possibly Beer.
Last night, I was talking with TS7 and we swapped a few mp3 files. I gave him some songs by Múm, one of which was a song called Green Grass of Tunnel. I've actually been playing that one on a loop, and (here's my phrase that I like so much), [read more...]
Mellzah
Mellzah(Melissa) got a Junior Designer position for Papaya Studios (and will be working for James Phinney, who apparently designed such big games as Diablo and StarCraft). Awesome news to hear, especially since she's been focusing on, and working towards, a job within the gaming industry. Woohoo! Congrats! [read more...]
They're Building... Some Sort Of... Big... Chair?
So there's this convention going on at the Merchandise Mart. It's called NeoCon, whatever the fuck that is. I had a rant earlier in the day because that name means absolutely nothing. It's a New Convention? No real idea what it's all about, but guessing it's furniture related. Or household [read more...]
Alright
Looking at those pics now, I have to say... that is pretty damn cool. Whatever it is. :) [read more...]

Opportunity
I drove in to work today, and stopped by Justin's to pick him up. On the way to his house, I noticed this guy sleeping in a doorway. I thought to myself "Wow, what a great image." After Justin hopped in the car, I circled around near the guy, stopped, [read more...]
A Little Late
Looking out the window at work, I noticed the cranes becoming a bit more active. I grabbed my camera, headed downstairs, hoping to capture the whole process of them tilting the chair upright. Downstairs, the doors to the main entrance were all blocked. There was a security guard directing me [read more...]

Out Of Nowhere
Today, I found myself wondering if I was ever going to get married, ever going to have kids. The idea of turning 30 has started to creep into my brain as an eventuality, and I know I haven't really come to grips with that idea, head on. A lot of [read more...]

Addendum
I noticed that yesterday, while looking around Múm's site, they had a link to a show they did at The Austin Museum of Digital Art (AMODA). I recognize the name only because another artist I admire greatly, Jared Tarbell, has had several exhibits there. If you haven't seen his work [read more...]

Art or Not, Re-Revisited
Actually, I'm finding the constant variations really rather exciting. I keep going back to the previous versions, to see if, indeed, things have changed. And they have. :) hahahaha! Holy crap! The police tape switched! I don't know what's scarier - the fact that I noticed this, or the fact [read more...]
I Recognize That Biscotti
My friend Alex has a very amazing girlfriend named Linda, who runs a few restaurant/stores up in Green Bay (at least, I think it's Green Bay). Rumor has it she's moving down to Chicago (woohoo!). And something I discovered about a month ago... she's been going around Chicago-land, trying [read more...]

I'm A Mess
Today was a cleaning and laundry day. Everything is slowly getting cleaned up and back into a semblance of order. Got some clothes washed, scrubbed up the bathroom, mopped the floors some, and vacuumed the living room. I was on the phone a few times today, and each time was [read more...]

Guilty Secret #11
I never learned HTML. I still don't know it. I got exposed to WYSIWYG's early on, and learned enough to create a page that could house/contain my Flash .swf files. When I started getting into computers, I threw myself into Flash and that's about it. At work, I've started to [read more...]

Lost, Then Found... Some Others Who Were Also Lost
After work, I walked to the Red Line and hopped a train over to the North/Clybourn stop. I had a general sense of where the location was (Weed Street), and made my way to the short stretch of road. It ended abruptly and I was unable to find where it [read more...]

Just So It's Clear
I thought a long time today, about whether I was going to go to this thing or not. Part of me felt like just running back to my apartment, doing the whole hibernation/hiding thing from the rest of the world. But another part of me though that, given the fact [read more...]

Self Portrait
Around 2:30, I leave work to go uptown and meet up with Nikki. We're meeting at a neighborhood Einstein Bros. and, when I arrive, she's talking with her prior appointment. I hang around a bit, set my things down on the table and go to get a coffee. When I [read more...]
Suuuuuper Geeeeeenius
So they wheeled in the front door for the UltraCrib contest today. Vic was working on wiring up the lock so that a siren and flashing light would go off once it was opened. In case you haven't read about this on the blog, there's a contest going on [read more...]
Papers Papers Papers
Today, I had a meeting with my accountant. That sounds really weird. I've never really hired anyone to do my taxes before but, this year, I just wanted someone else to handle everything for me. I got Nikki's name from my friend Stu, and she helped me file an extension [read more...]

Art Film Deferred: Or, Matrix Reloaded Revisited
Inside the theater... and let me do this tangent thing for a minute. It's still weird for me to go to movie theaters inside big buildings). The idea of a movie theater suggests to me a singular building built expressly for that purpose. But downtown, the actual theater rooms are [read more...]
