About Me

Ask around. (Then tell me what you hear)

My Interests

chesterfield sofas, black coffee, eggs over medium, bacon, 6-10am, architecture, art, bizarre cheeses, the gym, strangers on the subway, gin & tonic, oscar mayer hot dogs with yellow mustard, yogurt, margarita wednesdays at Barragan's, shelter magazines, and other stuff like that.

Here's what I don't like:

Large birthday dinners at restaurants. Tedious! I don't like it when thugs take my bike and then don't respond when I harass them on Facebook about it.

I'd like to meet:

Tiny dancers. Little darlins.

I worked on this music video! Production design with TK:

Music:

I have to believe that sin can make a better man, but it's the mood that I am in that's left us back where we began.

Movies:

I fag it up in the movie department. Think Olympia Dukakis films of the early nineties.

Television:

I stopped watching recently because it doesn't fit into my current lifestyle. I spend a lot of time runnin' around.

Books:

I just read Ham on Rye and I really loved it except for the parts where he rehashes old baseball games and shit. Snoozefest, Bukowski!
The rest was great though.

Heroes:

These people.

My Blog

A bird and a lunatic.

Slap! I was biking down Vermont and this bird took the most amazingly gigantic dump on my head. It was the kind that was clear and greasy with goop in the middle, like a raw egg with a green yolk. I...

Eggcitement.

I was sitting at my new favorite coffee shop Friday afternoon with some green tea and a magazine when my roommate, Eric, came marching toward me, pointing his finger accusingly in my direction. He wa...

I posted this on Facebook, but for you MySpacers (specifically Nefertiti) I'll double-post:So this morning I was finishing up a superset of curls and triceps extensions at the gym when I noticed, out ...

I Moved!

But I didn't get very far. In fact, I live less than fifty yards away from my old place. 24th Street. But my rent is over $100 cheaper and I have my own room. It's great. Who pays $300-something ...

Quote of the day

Moments ago I was having lunch with Kate and my assisstant, Chongo, who speaks almost no English. In the middle of lunch out of nowhere he looked at Kate and said:"Maybe one day you fuck me?"

Someone broke into my house!

And all they stole was the batteries to my remote.I know it sounds crazy, but it's true. I was watching television an hour or so ago, flipping channels, and then I got hungry so I went to Ralphs. I ...

Haute Cuisine.

I'm so sick of ground turkey I could twirl around my dining room, shrieking like a dying sparrow. It was on sale at Ralphs last week so I thought, "Why not by 7.5 pounds of it?" Ever since then, day...

Shock! (and happily moving on)

This morning I decided to go to my favorite art/architecture supply store to get some materials. I have my friend's car this week and although there is almost no gas in it I thought it'd be worth the...

Swollen.

I woke up this morning and my right hand had swollen to the size of a cantaloupe. That's an exaggeration, but there is in fact no definition of my third and fourth knuckles. I don't see any bite mar...

It's That Time Of The Month...

Someone tried to scam me on Craigslist this morning. They wanted to send me money via MoneyGram or whatever that is. Luckily Craigslist sends you info on common scam methods, and that one was right ...
