On to now … I’m at Day’s Espresso Shop, and the coffee is reeeeaaallllllllly fucking good. So smoothe. I’ve got [...]

02.16.2007

Oh my god, this is my favorite. I didn’t originally find this in the internet, I watched it on DVD. But I’m so glad it’s on YouTube now!

Needcompany / Builders

01.24.2007

This show, Isabella’s Room, has affected me much more in the long run than in the immediate sense. I found a trailer for it today. Cool. Visit Needcompany. Also, if you haven’t seen The Builders Association in action, you should visit the website for their BIG show, supervision, and watch the trailer.

Shows on Saturday

01.20.2007

da da kamera‘s “A Beautiful View” is not a great play. It’s an okay play, a spirited two-hander about a couple of non-lesbian women who sleep together anyway. It’s light enough, with a enough iventive moments to keep me mostly awake, and the actors definitely make it worth the proce of admission, but the play [...]

NYC First couple of days

01.19.2007

Well, we’ve had a great 1.5 days in NYC so far. Thursday night, we squeeeezed into Mike’s (Acacia’s brother) car. The trunk was alrady full, so we had me in the front seat with Acacia’s smaller suitcase and Dave in the back with my suitcase and his, then poured Acacia into the tiny space between [...]

Superman Returns?

07.12.2006

Just by the way, how hard is it to make a good comic book movie? I have a rant to go with this, but let me just say, “Fuck those guys!” Superman sucked. Not because it was horrible, but because it was so much less than it should have been. You’ve gotta get it right. [...]

2:47pm EST I think this is my first experience typing on a bus. Certainly the first time I’ve used my Powerbook on public transportation. We just passed exit 220 in Indiana. My ETA in Chicago is about 2 hours away. I gotta say, I’m diggin the bus so far, at least the Megabus. Well, it [...]

I love having a conveniant little 12-inch laptop. It sure makes ass-long bus-rides more tolerable. I didn’t write yesterday because there was no time and I had no energy. I got up in the morning and went to the Bobtail, a cute ice cream/coffee shop in Mike’s neighborhood, East Lakeview. I sat down and read [...]

12:25pm Central

05.05.2006

So, that’s the view from Michael’s apartment, looking out on Surf. Somehow I managed to wake-up at about 7:30am this morning. Woah. I’m guessing it was all the light pouring into the room, maybe Michael shut the door and woke me up, maybe it was the cat. I don’t know, but it was unexpected, and [...]

I’m fucking tired. We’re back at Michael’s place on Surf. I had a nice afternoon, ate a lite lunch at a Corner Bakery, took my coffee to Millenium park and hung out a bit, reading the newspapers and using the phone to send pictures to Acacia to make her jealous. Let’s see. Do I have [...]
