I think I updated about 3 years ago at this point...but felt I needed to get up the news that I proposed to Hilary and she said yes.

2009 couldn't start much better for me/us and hope everyone else is gearing up for a sexy, artistic, passionate 12 months.

Man, I'm a little spent. Today was day 21 in a row at the office. Big project that has to be done and it just happens to be one of my friends across the country in Buffalo that will be the recipient of this site - so I can do nothing but give it everything I can before presentation.

My social life during this period...

And travels in the next week will take me from LA to Charlotte to Nashville to LA and then to Vegas before back to LA.

Couple different reasons, but looking forward to all of them.

Hopefully my right arm will be getting accosted by the buzzing needle by the time I get back in the fold.

Be well have a good week...

Power outage at the work building today, so it's my very first Los Angeles, 100 degree snow day. Cleaning, did some grocery shopping and hosting some folks over for a little NHL Draft party starting at 4.

It's hot. I keep trying to pretend it's not that bad...but it kinda sucks. At least it's not humid here.

Stopped by PURE Tattoo off Fairfax and talked to Blitz. Looks like some new ink could well be on the way.

And as the Caps were eliminated this evening...hence so is all my facial hair.

BOOOOO!

Saw my buddies band The Indio Bait play at The Mint on Pico last night. Good times and treated to a Madonna cover which came from left field.

Saturday:

Watched the Capitals stay alive for another day (game 6 in Philly on Monday). Yes, I am a sports junkie and almost like the NHL and NFL more than tatted ladies, but not quite.

Replaced my...

Saw Bad Religion at the House of Blue in West Hollywood last night. What a refreshing, riotous show.

Ended up going to the Saturday night show as well...and as they're leaving the stage they say, "bring tonight's ticket tomorrow night and you get in free."

So tonight we go see Bad Religion for the 3rd time this week. Not too shabby...but I need a weekend...

Looks as though I boycotted February in this neighborhood. Changed jobs, moved...plenty of good transition, but I hope to be a regular in the mix in the very near future.

So L.A. will remain home for the foreseeable future. As much as trying Portland on for size would have been fun and a new adventure, everything came together here in the City of Angels and we're really excited about it.

I got a new job within my company with a handsome raise (as they put their money where their mouth was when they said they...
