We watched Mulholland Drive on Saturday night. What a creepy movie! Definitely David Lynch’s best work since Blue Velvet. If you don’t like David Lynch this movie will definitely not make you a fan, but if you are you should not miss this film. I think Eleya figured out the …
Big movie night on tap for tonight! We probably won’t watch all of them tonight, but I got a hold of Training Day, Mulholland Drive, Made, and Ghost World. I’ll post my thoughts after we’re done with at least a few of them. Evie was an absolute angel today. Not …
I found some cheap soft-sided rifle cases that will fit Sticks (albeit snugly). They’re made by a company called Allen, and I got one at Sports Authority for $13. There’s no shoulder strap and no accessories pocket, but Eleya can sew those on for me. It’s amazing how you learn …
If you’re on a diet, the “Clear American” flavored seltzers at Wal-Mart are great. Pick your flavor, there’s like 53 of them to choose from. (Bad grammar, good soda.)
So on a whim tonight I recorded a bit of me playing (badly) one of the most beautiful folk songs I know, Shenandoah. The vanity! The hubris! Run for the hills, hide the children! Sorry about the ending, I got a finger misplaced somewhere and tried to make the best …
Ack! Yesterday I was tweaking the bridge screws on the melody side of #777 and I busted my fourth string. Argghh! My new strings haven’t gotten here yet so I am SOL until that happens. Hopefully I’ll get them by the end of the week. In the meantime I’m going …
I had my last lesson (for a couple months at least) with Greg last night, and it went really well. I stayed for a set of music, and of course he blew the doors off the place as usual. The only problem was that the audience was barely paying attention …
Having a great Monday (isn’t it sickening?), wrote my first man page today for the little C program I cobbled up. Linux rules! I realized this morning that I somehow completely missed a haircut appointment I had last Thursday. I guess it was because I haven’t been checking my appointments …
Eleya and I stayed up late last night to watch Dead Alive on IFC last night. It was without a doubt the goriest, funniest horror movie I have seen, ever. Hard to believe it’s by the same guy who directed the Lord of the Rings films. But we noted that …
The baby took her first steps on Thursday night, about 7 or 8 of them, to walk over to me from down the hall. It was pretty amazing! She’s turning into such a little person so fast. It seems like just yesterday I was afraid to hurt her when I …
