Hold it down

spring '10, done.

Hotttlanta. waste expo and conference.

Lakers, 2-0 over the Jazz.

I'm in the ATL. it's damn hot. Sorry ATL for presuming lack of hip, diversified culture before arriving. They got their version of Melrose, Haight,... they got their version of Huf, In4mation,...they got clean mass transit...
they got their version of Roscoe's... but it ain't Roscoe's!
See you at the penthouse pool.
oh, and watch where you walk. highly possible you'll fall in a hole rimmed with metal on the sidewalk. yeah. i have a souvenir, and it's red and purple.
Was hit on by a big black gay dude at the MARTA station, and then possibly by a straight Marine at the bar. I don't know which one is more awkward.
Met John Force! Such a class act.

dave heat-seeking a model in nordstrom. what a sight for inspiration.

confidence levels up, faith in check, all systems go. let's do this designguy! (dork)

The BkC

Rant for the day...

BKC... store is nice, their knits are nice. but really, i was expecting more in terms of merchandise. I understand the economy is bearing down on smaller companies right now so i hope there's more to see from them in the near future in regards to more knits n wovens.
if your brand is all about that street bespoke look, then you should have the merch to back it.

sidenote: the lady at the store is gorgeous. plus you talk sweetly. hi, my name is mark.

Nixon makes alarm clocks?

DP2... done. and dri.

hey stranger

laaaaaakers. taming the bulls right now.

so yes, i'm alive. why have i been away from this for so long?

Insomnia -Jill Scott

FINALLY, got to go into the Stephens'/AAU car museum in my school building. Actually, got to go twice in one week. These pics don't justify the grandiosity.
Went to MOMA for the millionth time in two years. Can't complain. Esp with good company. Museum #1, done. __ more to go.
hm, i think i will paint something by the end of this year.
This week's been good. Finishing my homework with mindfulness and maintaining a happy life balance.

F-n dodgers. win a game already so we can end this.
