By the time the first bombs fell, we were already bored.

Quick little update...

Long time, no entry. Not much time for the internet and not much of an internet signal for me anyway.

Quest was alright this summer. Got to know some of the staff more which was awesome. Chaos was had and handled. Kim and I rocked that shit and I love working with her.



I punched the CBEST in the face and am looking for subbing jobs. Also looking for part time jobs so Kim and I can move out and move on. I'm planning to go back to school for my ted sped credentials aka teaching and special ed.

A friend and I are slowly moving a little film project forward. We're both researching and contemplating where to take the story and characters and what not. More to come on this.

Loving the new Jonah Matranga, latest Arcade Fire, Moon soundtrack, latest Alkaline Trio, latest Band of Horses, etc...

Recently enjoyed Inception...three times, Babies, Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Girl Who Played With Fire, The Square, 12, Prison Break, and a handful of others with commentary.



Recently saw Iamani, Two Sheds, and Jonah at Giman and had a great time. There wasn't too big of a crowd so it felt incredibly intimate. It was great to see Iamani and Jonah again. Haven't seen them in a while. Always full of positive energy and love. I've been meaning to check out Two Sheds, so this made me happy. I really enjoyed their music. Picked up their cd and was very happy to find a hidden cover of Talking Heads' Psycho Killer on there. Very beautiful music. Kind of shoe gazish, but lovely.





Also saw Pinkerton. They are a Weezer cover band formed of members from various different local bands. This is only their second show. Daniel and I went to their first show where they covered Pinkerton from beginning to end. This time they played through the blue album from start to finish. Loved it. The whole crowd was singing along and it was just great fun.

Been reading Carter Beats The Devil, The Stand, and The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

I will update more often now...sans daily photos. Forgot one too many times and decided to discontinue.
