i'm afraid that i had two or three too many oat sodas last night at the tenacious d show. but the post-alcohol angst that i feel today is more than made up for by the fact that jb and kg rocked my fuckin socks off last nite at the house of blues in downtown disney. highlights included jb bt-ing on ept in the desert, kg...

i wasn't in the best of moods yesterday evening after working late and getting stuck in traffic on the parking lot otherwise known as the hollywood freeway so i opted for a little culinary therapy when i got home. kkjz was playing some awesome music (notably a duet with natalie cole and diana krall and some brubeck/desmond where i could swear they played around with...

the 1950's and early 60's were the heyday of the indie jazz label, and it wasn't just blue note. for some years, berkeley, ca based fantasy inc. has owned the backlists of pretige, riverside, debut, contemporary, pablo, and its own fantasy imprint. with six full-length, newly remastered cd samplers, fantasy presents enticing conspectuses of these label's vintage achievements. bob weinstock's prestige...

The fat bastard was good...on furthur inspection it was a shiraz from France! Interesting, one does not think of shiraz grapes growing in the "old country" of wines...ever had muscadine? Very southern, but interstingly sweet, a bit like Gewursteimmer (I am sure I misspelled that) Dinner: veal and paprika sour cream potatoes. More port post dinner.
My old man recently read the "Diary of Laura Palmer" He loved it, and usually he reads books like "Nuclear War and You" and "Saddam Hussein, the biography"
I believe Laura palmer was the fucked up girl in that series...he read me sections...steamy and terribly strange.

ain't nuthin like a little commercial therapy to perk up one's day. just got back from lunch with brother bradley. before scoring some piping hot tofu for our dejeuner, we went wine shopping and i got five bottles! party at my crib! anyone feel like getting sauced with one tonite? i got three bottles of argentinian wine (merlot, shiraz and malbec), one bottle of australian...

I could appreciate this...but by now all wine has vanished I am sure...
Funny, we wet our whistles...and much more... with some vino last night also...
Got a nice 20 yr bottle of port, and delicately sipped it with microwaved hohos...tres decadent
Have you ever had Fat bastard? A Shiraz also I believe.
WE got a bottle and haven't drank it yet, if it is good it makes for an amusing yet tasty Christmas present.
Are you into the wonderful Beaujolais Nouveau season? I always look forward to a couple of bottles at Thanksgiving, makes me more thankful.
I am not much of a French wine drinker, except anything from Chateau-Neuf-de Pape. I like SuperTuscan...Tiganello, Sassicaia, Brunello di Montalino (My favorite in the world)
I won four hundred dollars at a roulette table in Biloxi Mississippi and spent it all at dinner with two bottle of my sweet sweet Brunello.
It is amazing when you actually start tasting "good" wines ho wyour appreciation changes...And how exciting it is when you drink $10 bottles and find good ones...mostly shiraz and pinot noirs I find...we have wine parties at my one friends house and we all bring a bottle, the only rule is that is has to be 10$ and under...it is cool, we eat drink all the wines, (and find out what cheap ones are fantastic!) and then watch the Simpsons or swim. I wish you could come.

just wanted to share a little funk-inspired soul with all y'all on this rather overcast monday morning. the marine layer sure as hell took its sweet time buring off.

damn you and your food ! You are as bad as me...
I just had quiche around 6:30a fro breakfast and I am already hungering for pork chops...Have you ever had those little thin sliced boneless ones with breakfast? Kinda southern to eat chops for breakfast, but really quite nice. I love me some pork.
Sorry about the pinky lost. I always pass people and want them, I mean, to know them...:> Another morning of fucking around at work! YEah!

i have nothing interesting or amusingly irreverant to write in today's entry. in my desperation, i can only think of recycling a story i wrote a little while ago - an entry to a writing contest that i somehow won.

dude i didn't really tell anyone about last night except post it on the calendar section. It was $15.00 to get in which is WHY i didn't tell anyone. I figured that was quite high for a club on a wednesday night. They are how ever plsying on the 22nd with Shots Fired (featuring Josh Todd of Buckcherry). /tickets are i think $12.00 but i have advanced tickets for $6.00 & i know you want to buy one

monday's journal entry was pre-empted by my very own personal ad. i did however feel compelled to make a minor addition to it this morning so if you check the archive, there's a tidbit about my less than admirable traits. its late tuesday morning and my feet are cold and my socks and shoes are damp. i've removed both socks and shoes in hopes of...

I love the way you communicate...and oddly your shortest post is when it is a personal ad...your regular posts are so very personal....I wish you lived near me...I think we would get a long very well.
I love champagne caviar and me feet which are always black from walking around barefoot...and I seep the house every week I swear!!!!
We have alot of likes that are alike...

Congrats on the test!!! Always feels strangely good to excel on instituional exams...even when we often berate the concept of testing ones intelligence with these "national forms" over steaming cups of coffee on rainy days in a dark coffee shop that smells of sandalwood...come on, ya know you 've had the conversation...but it still feel good to know we are smart according to "them". I was obsessed with the SATs, back in high school...and AP tests...My older sister was insane when she took the LSAT untill she found she had done well...
