So I got the gig, and just spent the bulk of the past two days finishing my first assignment. The assignment is the less glamourous portion of the gig, that I will have to suffer through for the first month or so while they get comfortable with my style and they determine where my narratives will fit into their publications. Thank you all again for...

Solicitation: I got a great e-mail today from a friend who runs a writer's representation firm, she asked me to submit some adult/erotic writing/stories/copy for upcoming publications. It was incredibly flattering to be asked, and of course I'll submit, but I (like anyone in a creative field) suffer from fears of artistic inadequacy and a shaky professional ego. I'll let you know how it goes....

i think your clothes would look better on my bedroom floor.

Noticed you moved. We should grab a bite to eat sometime and talk about how you and VP can really hook up. (Did you really cook her breakfast??? I think she owes me crepes? lol) I still think you both would be a great duo!
I know your reading this VP...hehe! Your both HOT too!!!

I grew up a fat kid, and not a happy fat kid, I was unjustly ashamed of my body, my size, my appearance, and well hell I was different from everyone else I knew growing up in that Jersey town. I didn't have a favorite sports team, i didn't like playing army, or war games of any sort. I liked to draw, and paint, sing,...

I too understand how it was to feel different growing up and now as an adult I love it!
That was a damn inspirational story. Thank you for sharing and your mom is an amazing woman!

Thank you for stepping up to the plate and speaking for geeks worldwide. And , although you're far from the typical brigade member, you set a sterling example. And I......I provide many opportunities for your fellow technocrats to feel good then, because I'm rather a Neanderthal when it comes to these matters.
I seem to spend half my time lately trying not to be full of shit.

- A noble cause, and certainly far more difficult than one might expect. If you ever find yourself interested in invesitgating the effects of interrogation on the interrogator, that theme will surface repeatedly in your studies.
Your desire to just be you on your date makes you that much more attractive
so no worries friend - if she deserves you, then she will like you as you are.
(I know I know, that's so cliche that it's painful, but it's just so damn true, that there's really no getting around it.

I was hoping that you would say that it was a good thing. I mean, who actually wants to be full of shit?
Good luck!
Good luck!
I don't know how many of you know this, but I'm kind of a political junkie and today i just wanted to do a post to show my respect to a man who made me look forward to Sundays. His passing is affecting me like I wouldn't have imagined, He seems now, as though he must have been a family member, or long time friend...

She is pretty great. I've been her nanny for about four years now. Off and On.
I'm glad you may have found someone. I was serious though. If you need someone one, let me know I have a bunch of geek friends who might know someone.

I'm doing pretty well, thanks for asking
I'm looking forward to going home in two (hopefully) short months, and trying to stay out of trouble in the mean time. More good news: I've made honest progress on a painting I started two months ago, then didn't have time to do anything with for weeks. I'll post a pic when I finish it.
How are things working out for you?

Sorry for being absent as of late. I am in the process of moving and had a split with my business partner with an already overwhelming number of projects in the works. So i've been putting out fires all over the place and haven't had much time to write. But I miss you guys-
Hey anybody know any eager Web Developers in OC?

I wish I did. If you are serious I can see if my collection of geeks knows anyone.

No worries friend, you're worth waiting for 

"Why are we running...?" Sounded the frustrated voice of Jennifer through a groaning wind
"Because THEY are running" replied the stout woman pulling Jennifer's uneasy steps along with a hand, made strong by years of repetitive labor at the the Grain mill.
"But we've DONE nothing wrong" Jennifer continued in protest
"Too right dat Missy, WE ha'done nuttin wrong. You on de udder hand, You...

Utilikilt or something more glam?

Haha, the picture of perfection! You look WAY better in that skirt than I would, my friend. Like a post post modern avant pan-action hero.

Yes I did pick up some more ink for the collection, you always notice the new pieces before any one else.
You do mystify me little one. Those delicate hands. I think other men would be surprised to feel the roughness of your skin... the texture, not quite so callused as mine I can't imagine you'd have suffered through the strokes of a 16 ounce...

Magus, Sweet Magus
with humorous sway you engage
your words like tickled butterflies
Swell then land softly upon my page
Warmed by that gustatorial inspired presage
Providing distraction and disarming aloofness
With all the silly talk of
"Crepes avec fromage et un oeuff"ness
Oui! Oui! I say.
I must and do
My most savory crepes
I wouldst share avec vou.
So sit for a while
Take a bite, have a gander
Drink and let's let thoughts meander.
Magus, Sweet Magus
You certainly amuse.
Magus, Sweet Magus
A goodnight to you.

magus, my friend, I hope your heart is holding up. I'm sorry you are sad.

when writers can't write, they write about themselves not being able to write. when painters can't paint, they drink and talk about writers. when romantics can't love they read books about people who can....

I brought the dogs down to Encinitas/DelMar to a dog beach today. Bronte, I think, is part fish because she fucking LOVES the water, Beren spent most of his time sniffing seaweed piles and Drogo stuck to me like he always does, sniffing a butt or two as it passed him by. Anyway, on the way there I was on "PCH" and saw a little...

Ha ha! Chaos with a happy ending. Watching dogs try to navigate busy streets is such an unnerving sight. I have my own little doggie rescue experiences, but none so action packed and glorious as yours. I picture a little freckle faced, Ron Howard, Mayberry type of kid when you mentioned the "Thanks Mister" bit.
Good deeds certainly are their own reward, however, I'm giving you a gold star anyway. Thank you for pulling that oblivious little pug back from the jaws of death.
You did a very good thing.
