Speaking of venting, maybe I’ll post this for you. My friend Dayle is tired, tired, tired of dating. Last night she goes on what she claims is her last date (for now, I imagine.) The date was nondescript, but as it turns out, it’s the proverbial straw on her Dromedary. She writes him a response […]

I’m through with Buzz. I joined a couple years ago, met some cool people, hung out with some of them, posted a ton of pics, had some fun. But I’m sick of the down time, I’m tired of the way my blog hangs while it searches for the Buzznet servers. I’m tired of wondering what […]
This has been a hell of a week. I haven’t posted since I got back to Hollywoodland. This is because I work 56 hours in a five day period. Five days at Amoeba. Three days at Argentum. Things are pretty normal now. Here are some pictures to prove it (since I don’t have the energy […]
So the return trip drags. Way too much time is spent waiting in terminals and on tarmacs. The Doctor Pepper beverage service on the return trip is no where near as tasty as it was on the way out. And after a week of high-altitude, clear-sky serenity it’s almost a relief to be picked up […]
If this is the top post when you’re reading this, I’m probably on a plane to L.A.
I’m on my way back today folks. So hide the silverware and all that. It’s been the longest week I’ve had in some time. It’s the key to eternal life, I think. Keeping busy. Don’t slow down. Avoid ruts. You’ll live three or four lifetimes. This is the sky from the driveway of my parents’ […]
By coincidence, my brother calls me when we’re downtown Santa Fe this afternoon, so he checks the plaza webcam. There we are (I’m the one on the right doing the weird dance.)
Damn. I just lost my ride back from the airport. Anyone in the vicinity of Burbank Friday at nine PM? Pick me up! Thanks, Mandy!
This is Dorothy Keightley. She gave birth first to my dad, then to his three brothers and two sisters. She lives in Montezuma, which is a few miles north of Las Vegas, which is about sixty miles east of Santa Fe. She’s the one I always brag about to others over drinks at parties and […]
If you’re ever in doubt as to whether you’re in New Mexico or not, just check the local grocery store shelves. The tortillas are all locally made, with the exception of a teeny tiny stack of one particular Texas Brand. Choices are good. This is in a Lowe’s market in Las Vegas, New Mexico. My […]
On Sunday I leave Joy and Denver behind and head back down to Santa Fe. This is the playlist for the drive: William Orbit: Hello Waveforms (mellow, contemplative, somewhat depressing, which is appropriate for one leaving Joy behind.) Dane Cook: Harmful If Swallowed (a bit of sparkly comedy to make me giggle.) Earlimart: Treble and […]
One more photo from Boulder. This guy’s making fun balloon animals. He has just asked the girl what she wants. I don’t know what she answers. But I would have asked him to make me Ebola.
Joy and I spend a fine weekend together in Denver. You can’t tell how much fun we’re having by our expressions in the photo below, which is actually taken on Saturday’s jaunt to Boulder. You’ll just have to take my word for it. Odd thing: seconds after this photo is taken, a pigeon falls from […]

In need of a break, I’ve taken a week off work and hopped on a plane to New Mexico. I grew up here, so it’s sort of a homecoming for me. At the same time, my parents have sold their San Luis Obispo house and are exactly in the middle of a move back. My […]
Man, what a pain. Now I know this site ain’t exactly boingboing, but I’ve got my fair share of readers. Even so, my bandwidth allotment at ipowerweb, who hosts HOLLYWOODLAND, has never set foot past the 15% mark. Imagine my surprise when I check my stats tonight to see that bandwidth has suddenly jumped to […]
