INT. STARBUCKS – SEBASTOPOL, CA – EARLY AFTERNOON A man in his early 30’s is sitting in the back corner of the café, staring at his computer screen while sipping coffee. He has headphones in and is fading between where the music takes him and where he is at the moment. It’s obvious he’s been… Continue reading Somewhere Else To Be

Watching Past The Day [Updated]
2011 fades away, and what a year it was. I’m going to be breaking this into multiple posts. A couple that are my year mostly in numbers, like books, movies, travel, etc. The other mostly made up of intangibles, life, love, lessons, and the like. This will be one of the former. I tend to… Continue reading Watching Past The Day [Updated]
Social Anxiety Order
I’ve certainly never been a stranger to social/internet outlets. I’ve been consistently wandering around the online public space for a long time. I explored AOL 1.0 in the early 90’s, was part of online communities, forums, etc. I started building websites around the same time and was part of the “Independent Web” movement in the… Continue reading Social Anxiety Order
Some Very Strange Birds
So last weekend I was in Olympia, WA and found myself shooting unit stills for an indie film, which was pretty amazing. I’m going to try and recap this the best I can, since the reality of the situation is that I’ve been pretty distracted lately. A lot of things remain in question about, well,… Continue reading Some Very Strange Birds
One apple, Two ideas
Notes for the week: WiFi + Bistro = Wistro. I’m not sure I like this name, but it’s everywhere here. I was told that I need to start making food more of a priority. This is actually pretty true. For some reason eating just sits at the bottom of my daily “to do” list. I… Continue reading One apple, Two ideas
The War of Art
And so here I sit. Watching tour boats travel up and down the Seine from my spot on Paris Plages, next to the pétanque courts. My croissant is mediocre and I’m treating myself to a Fanta Orange (I stopped drinking soda a long time ago). There are people painting around me, and people filming the… Continue reading The War of Art
Trial by fire…
I’m sitting in a Starbucks. It’s a cold, rainy, night in Las Vegas, NV. I flew here this morning, by way of Los Angeles, CA, from Boston, MA at 5:00 AM this morning. I’m here to build a huge Rock Band stage for The Las Vegas Nightclub & Bar Convention and Tradeshow. Without knowing any better,… Continue reading Trial by fire…
The clanking of crystal.
So this is the new year. Again. 2009 was a hell of a year for me. My Rock Band year (but that’s a different story/post/whatever). This year hasn’t quite started like I was hoping, but I’m financially in better shape than I thought I would be. That’s at least something. Once of the biggest “looking… Continue reading The clanking of crystal.
In case of brawl, smash…
So I’ve been meaning to post here recently, but as you can tell from the post dates, I often fall pretty short of any kind of quota. I’ve always been more of a stream of consciousness kind of writer (unless it’s fiction, science fiction mostly, but that’s for a different post) which is why my… Continue reading In case of brawl, smash…
