A night at the Roxy

There is this horrible bar called the Roxy.
I used to pride myself in saying that I've never been there.
Like I said "used" to say.

I have a friend.
My best friend of thirty one years.
Oh god, really?
Well there, i said it, now you know,
I'm frickin' old and getting there.

We are out.
I should say, she is out.
Out on the town.
Away from the husband and the kid, and this mamma wants to dance!
How the Roxy came to fruition, i don't know,
but here we are.

As the girls danced, my other friend and i entertained ourselves with a photo shoot.
Who could out shoot.
These are a few of my products, working on shapes and textures.
well it was entertaining enough as everyone got their dance on.
In the end it was fun and worth it.
Oh those crazy full moons...

untitled

a thought.
a thought manifested.
a fleeting thought.
but a thought none the less.
a thought that was not echoed back.
Damn you.
i want to hate you.
but i can't.
Damn you.
i will not succumb to these diminishing eyes and this furrowed brow.
Oh dam you.

down at the club...

there was a new band playing...
but unfortunately, they got cut.

the light

i like to singa

well spring has definitely sprung.
something about this place is really like no other.
it's not just the sunny warm weather that makes it great
but also the the explosions of colour everywhere,
the cherry blossoms that have bloomed, accenting the sky with little pink puffs.
and i don't know what it is, but in spring time something blooms
and it smells like blueberry bubble gum.
you know what else makes today a great spring day?
today was a GREAT day to go and skate.
skate my little heart out.
get my heart rate running and my foot to the pavement.

the mighty ukulele

I want to see this documentary on the ukulele nation.
See, guys, ukes ARE cool and they're becoming more popular!

dreams

one of the few dreams i had last night/ this morning....

Two friends and myself go down to the beach. we walked down and we decided to go to the beach on the far end. obviously it was a little of a farther distance to get to, but we rarely went down to that one, so we thought we would check it out.

We get there and we are staring out at the water. the water leads to a cove or is looking across to the other side, kinda how we can look across and see North van. except, the view was unbelievable. And what i mean is that there are huge stone houses and buildings with big white pillars in the front. there were many buildings, perched or floating in the water that looked like the colosseum. it was truly unbelievable. many people around and animals are flying in the sky. At this point we were now in the water, near the entrance of the cove. A massive white feathery magnificent "bird" soars in and lands on the water just inside the cove beside one of the buildings that looks like a colosseum.

My friends and i look at each other in amazement and say "holy crap! we should come down to the side of the beach more often, it's crazy down here!"

Immediately after that moment, another huge white, feathery/furry beast turns his head and looks at us. In an instant it jumps up out of the water and lands in front of me. It is very close to me. very close. but it just sits there, perched in front of me. i don't know what to do. what does it want?

Then this beast bows his head down to me and says "climb on. lets go." So i begin to attempt to climb up onto his back. i'm trying to get my feet out of the water, stepping on his paws, trying to use them for leverage to get out. It felt like, well, have you ever tried to get back into a boat... kinda like that.

So finally i manage to get myself upon him, and like a rocket, he jumped out of the water and we soared into the sky. flying high and fast, as i held on tight around his neck.
I was riding on the back of the dog from the never ending story!
Falkor!!
It was fun.
I really do have to go down to the other far end of the beach more often.

bouncing electromagnetic waves and molecular interactions

YAY!
So i finally got rid of my radiation box (ie microwave)
I'm so excited and it feels great!
Oh, ole radiation box,
no longer for me and you.
i just can't go one like this anymore.
I rarely use you, and quite frankly, i don't want to anymore.
you are slowly poisoning me, even when i don't use you.
leaking your whatevers and your what nots into my living atmosphere.
your electromagnetic waves ..
Good bye radiation box.
I wouldn't want you to feel bad, but i have to say, i'm so happy to see you go.
Oh so very happy.

hot nuts

such great heights- electric uke

la la la....

i feel so alive, excited and inspired when i play music.
i wish i had the energy and creativity and more of an expansive knowledge of music.
just so i could play all night long.
music, it keeps me going, wanting to know more,
play more,
learn more,
do more,
experience more,
hear more,
create more...

but, why?
why is it so hard to find the people,
that feel the same?
want the same.
at the same level.
same groove.
same wave.
having more to offer.
something to learn.
wanting to learn from each other.
inspire each other.
i know you're floating around out there.
somewhere.

maybe, i'm not ready yet.
i feel ready.
i will continue to practice and
do more
learn more
play more
create more
hear more....
and one day we will find each other.
And damn, will it be a fine day.
