I had an odd dinner tonight. I had taken a number of pictures at a local old folks home for ads. The public relations guy gave me a free dinner pass for 2. This old folks home isn't an assisted living facility, but nicer apartments for still able bodied seniors. They also have a restaurant that holds various functions from time to time. I forgot...

I don't read books very often. I do read a lot - magazines, newspapers, crap on the net, whatever, but I don't sit down and read books. So it is surprising that I am working my way through the Beautiful Losers show catalog. Yeah, it's an art book with a ton of pictures, but it is a real hard bound book with words, too. Beautiful...

Deerhoof was fun. The singer is so small and she did some crazy dancing. It was a day after my birthday present for myself.

The next day at work was too long, but I was OK.

It all caught up with me today. I work as a newspaper photographer. I was going a half step behind all morning. Then when it was time to go...

Once again we gathered up a posse and went to Alfred University to see bands play. This time it was Lightning Bolt and Bug Sized Mind. Bug Sized Mind was one guy in a bug outfit playing a laptop and a keyboard under a green light. It looked pretty neat. Lightning Bolt were loud and noisy. It was a fun time, but it was cold....

I've been too busy at work. I want a new job. I applied for an adjunct drawing professor position at the local college. I hope that happens.

I'm going to see Deerhoof next week. It's supposed to warm up this week, so maybe I can go skateboard.

I survived the dentist. I had a good check up and the cleaning only took 15 minutes. Quick and painless. I am so happy.

I have to go to the dentist on Thursday. I hate going there. I actually don't mind once I am getting my teeth cleaned. I'm not happy about it, but I can manage. I just agonize over having to go. It sometimes ruins my whole month knowing that I have to go in for a cleaning. My dentist is cool, I stress out over having...

I was supposed to go to Buffalo to see my friend's band play today. Their lead singer had some sort of ego trip/breakdown so the band broke up today. It completely sucks for my friend. She has been juggling work, grad school and band practice the last 8 months or so and all of a sudden it's over. They had some shows lined up in...

We gathered up a posse and drove to Alfred University to see Hella last night. They played in a multi - purpose college building with a food court and a couple of computer labs. It was a rather odd setting. The show itself was in a big room that is probably used for guest speakers and maybe the occasional dance performance. Hella were ridiculous. It...

I saw this band called Mono from Japan on Saturday. They played in Buffalo at a little club called Sound Lab. The weather on the drive up and back completely sucked ass. Mono were awesome. I don't even really know what else to say about them.
