The National Bank
I have been getting pretty into Netflix recently, and have a nightly movie viewing once it gets late enough that there is nothing else to do. I am watching a combination of movies that I have seen and loved, and others that I feel like I should have seen, but somehow haven’t yet. Yesterday I watched “Adaptation” for the second time, and tonight was my first time watching...
Screw Grammar
So I have had the same picture as my iPhone background for like 4 months. I was so bored of all my Apple devised options that I decided to start making my own. So! If you too have one of these little phone thingys, then you might enjoy downloading the picture below and setting it as your background as well! (It is sized with the iPhone specs) More to come
Sanctuary
When I was in Europe a few summers ago, there was a CD that came out that really defined my year. I didn’t have a CD player, so I couldn’t buy the album, but I remember walking from whatever hostel I was at to the nearest music store, and listening to the CD on their listening stations. I would listen to the same 30 second clips of all the songs over and over again, just taking in the...
California street has some fantastic graffiti
February
I;m always amazed at how short February looks on paper, but how long it ends up being. Not in a bad way, but I just can’t believe it’s still February.

Sundays that are actually Saturdays are the best kind
Art!
So I go to graphic design school and I have a lot of homework. Here is my most recent assignment in case you don’t believe me We had to redesign this Brockman poster below (with the squares) using the exact same information, but in the style of 3 other designers. We could do almost anything, but it had to include the original words, and look similar to something that one of our chosen...
A great day for the race
I was trying to think this morning, of a word I had never ever said before. I mean, sure I’ve probably never said “goblethatho”, but I just made that up. I wanted to think of an existing word that I was sure I’ve never said before. It’s tough because I have to be able to think of it, so I have to be aware of it, but just have happened to never uttered it. ...
Art Brut had it right
Back from LA 2.0- That place proved itself once again as a very exciting place for me to visit. This time around it was supposed to be for recording, though thanks to some truly awful studio planning, it turned out to be more of a weekend vacation. Though believe me, I have nothing against spending a few days walking around in sunny 80 degree weather and hanging out on a rooftop pool. Fine by...

Cold Tired Happy
Unexpected free time today, very productive. Found a hotel for Japan, finished three versions of my business card (depends who it goes to), went to the beach, epic walk through North SF, little editing, now movie time. LA this weekend
The Frames
This was one of my favorite songs of last year. Glen Hansard just lets loose on this song and I love it. Pure power. “Say it to me Now” And if you have something to say You’d better say it now Cause this is what you’ve waited for Your chance to even up the score And as these shadows fall on me now I will somehow
