Well... almost a year... figure I might as well get back and update this thing...

Not much to say right now other than the fact that I've been going to shows, lost a job, then got it back, traveled, met people, and discovered that apparently I'm too old for girls my age and too young for older women... talk about an odd place to be.

It has been a wile since I last posted... so I figure I might as well make this worth while. Over the past month or so I've:

Gone back home to California and realized you can't go home again. It felt wierd, I spent most of my time driving around to Santa Cruz, through the Bay Area or wherever I felt like driving.

I broke...

So... I find myself in Tower Records on 5th in Seattle today... spend $100 on 3cds (yes I bought both the special edition and the regulare import of Victory for the Comic Muse) and noticed a big SG poster.

Damn cool... *sigh* I love my music...I had to practically run out of there so I didn't spend all my money... so many CDs...

So yeah... my birthday... I wake up... and bam... I find out Syd Barrett is dead... oone of my music idols... a man who's music is the first I remember hearing in my life. When I moved to Seattle the first thing I bought was a Syd Barrett CD that was an import I didn't have.

Today the world found out of the loss of...

An interesting weekend... I spend Sunday cleaning, laundry, shit like that and then just relaxed and read. I need to get a good chair for the deck my apartment has so I can lay out and read... so much better than laying on the floor in the sun.

Skarlet and I met up and had planned to tour a bit of north Seattle, yet all...

Well, I'm finally over the cold that struck me this week. It was most likely brough on by all the stress of the move but hell I can breath again! I went wandering around a bit, ended up in west Seattle, and found a spiffy record shop. That is going to be rough finding places for music like I used to have in San Fran...
