I'm not gonna lie.
I came back to look at Meow's set.
Yeeeow!
I get tired of looking at the same journal entry. It's how I felt that day at that minute. Lot's of days and minutes have gone by since then. Now, I wanna ravage Meow. That's how I feel at this moment.
I've been on a designing rampage as of late. I like design projects, and I need to be a little more critical of my own work, I've found. I guess it's part of learning. Practice. It's necessary. I don't practice as much as I should.
Same goes for drums. I should practice more...but I end up performing more often than practicing.
Here we are. It's Friday.
I played hookie from work yesterday. I needed it.
*cough*
Tonight I put on the suit, play in the jazz group at the fancy hotel.
Tomorrow morning I try and shake the hangover, grab muller and we get on a plane to LA.
Upon arrival we will go to the rehearsal space in Hollywood for a quick rehearsal with the... Read More
This was by far one of the hardest work days I've had in a long time.
I do not understand how some people continue to do such shitty work, and still have a job.
My day was spent cleaning up someone else's FUCKED UP mess(es), while she's away on sabbatical.
A 15 year old junior design student would have most likely done a better job... Read More
oh yeah it is shit you want to avoid! Seriously - today I got a message that the person whos staff job I am taking is taking the brand new MAC to her desk upstairs for her short term freelance gig, (only because she is fucking the IT guy) basically they were bought for all the staff and I am getting fucked.
THEN the director decideded that today was a day that I cannot do anything right - ie find the characters saying things they did not say or at places they were never at (does not exist DUH) so he treats me like shit THEN gets all pissy when I say I am not coiming in Tomorrow - I mean HELLO today is my last day NOT tomorrow - so everyone is talking shit about me.... GOOD TIMES, everyday is a different thing, the excitement never dies!
Oh, I feel your pain. Some elements of my week have included the great incompetency of others. Sometimes I use it as a sign to not beat myself up about job performance when I think, "At least I don't do work (or lack of) like so-and-so!"
So, I'm just laying on the couch watching TV here on a bored Friday night (tonight) and my phone rings.
It's one of my best friends who resides in Los Feliz.
"Hey Eric, I got someone here that wants to talk to you..."
"Ok cool"
I didn't know...I just went with it.
"Hello...Eric?
"Yes....who's this?"
"This is David!"
Oh I'll be there for sure. I never miss the Melvins if I can help it.

The reason I ask is "Production Designer" is also a film industry term/position (aka my boss) so I thought we might be in the same field.
The Fest is an amazing experience....so much fun, and it was over way too quickly.
There's nothing like a whole city's worth of southern hospitality, free beer, tons of pizza and 50 cent hot wings. We only played for 20 minutes but the whole experience was well worth all of the money I dropped for it. I... Read More
saw Johnny this weekend at the contest here, Rob hooked him up with some AZPX gear
I think he talked to him about bringing Clay Wheels out here for a show
make it happen
Thrasher had that posted before I even had a chance to look around. You can hear us rocking in the background throughout....sweet. Hopefully there will be some cool photos surfacing soon.
We had alot of fun. Epic contest. Nothing like watching your childhood skateboarder idols compete in front of you while you get to be the entertainment that fires them up during their contest runs....it... Read More
