may 20th
left work early, went and cleaned out studio. ill bring home paintings
tommorrow and i can photograph that newest one. built another massive
study guide thing. this one is 24pgs so far. not like pure text, just
pictures with titles. she floods us so with images for knowing. its kinda
harsh compared to what i and others are used to.
may 19th
uh huh. ok woke up to dog barking. we cleaned up and got out of davis.
a bad 5car or so wreck made a 15min drive an hour+. i didnt study much
at all for arth test on wed. i just cant get into it.
may 18th
ok the house is an art lovers dream. every book you can imagine on the
discussion of art theory is here. every where a book could fit there is
one. ive been reading a little bit of "2000
years of wall writing: graffitti" by robert reisner. its prety
interesting discussion of some of the reasons shawn and i seem to be well,
writing
on the walls, though as obvious as they may be it only struck me as
such after i read this authors theories in part. some of the identity
issues he was tlkaing about do reflect his 1971 viewpoint.. ooh saw spiderman
today. we were wandering around downtown davis and just came upon a cineplex.
neat-o.
may 17th
went to jobsite then to work. printed stuff and did other stuff, nothing
too memorable. went over to steph's after work. we are babysitting a house
in davis for the weekend.
may 16th
crit. the painting went over well. though surprisingly noone knew what
pedantic meant. (it says pedantic bragger) in the bubblet. i think ive
found the style i like. though now im through with painting for along
while. i ahve one last painting i want to do, but as i see it right now.
thats it. hopefully what ive been doing on canvas will translate to copper
ok.
may 15th
last art history class woohoo! early american art history is so dry. im
much more of a 1900-now kinda guy. talked to arth teacher after calss.
i guess she doesnt hate us after all. antagonism.
may 14th
painting. im making progress.
itll be done soon well, it has to be done soon, by thurs.
may 13th
work. got to get paid to drive. love that. i have instituted a drastic
savings plan cause im spending too much money. went to school and painted.
didnt have cam on me so cant take picutres. im afraid this one is gonna
be pretty lame anyway. nat is getting married in august, leah is getting
married in june. i still live at home. i play AD+D in my parents basement
while eating cheez-wiz from the can. i like ham radio, star trek and no
wait i hate those things.
may 12th
dad made a huge breaky for us/mom. ate then went back to sleep for along
while. steph had to leave so i could get work done. completely vented
client comput0. dremel'd it all wide and breezy.
may 11th
ran errands, picked up mom something for mom's day. setph and i woke up
early and still ended up with a late start. just kinda mellow day. lindsay
came home today. dada and her are goign to a "friends of the NRA
meeting tonight" picked up a client computer.
may 3rd-10th
got in a crash, rearended a lady, not to damagey. taking etching next
semester. ive started a new painting or two. shawn sold some work, we
went to the city and saw a show at the so expo. some other stuff has happened.
got mailer finished. nothing to interesting or htat i care to recall.
i need to do something with this now.
may 2nd
you may now be envious. i bought one of these bad
boys fuck-ing awe-some. didnt get either work into the juried show.
shawn got a huge major art-break but i wont spill right now.
may 1st
went to work, had a pretty rad day, installated the new 30gb dell sent
me. other stuff, turned in second piecce to juried show, turned in paper
to arth. class was canceled. and we got to give evaluations. we tried
to be non-harsh but productive. she really needs more experience.
april 30th
no lynching as of yet, kurt even said hi and he dont normally do that.

[19:16] inklady69: (schooL)
[19:18] *** inklady69 signed off at Tue Apr 30 19:18:05 2002.
[19:23] PH3RR3TISE: nuh-uh
check it
april 29th
im'a'gon' git lynched tommorry. i guess kurt has arranged a shawnanderic
talkign to. the jist of it we get form will smith a diff teacher is that
we are not playing fair. and not helping the community and being too isolationist.
we'll see tommorrow. now i write that paper. shawn
got a flier for a show that we can collaborate on when he dropped off
his soex piece
april 28th
typical sunday. i didnt write the paper i was supposed to write today.
i left my wallet in steph's purse so i had to drive to vacaville and back
to get it. the drive was pleasant though so it really wasnt a big problem.
april 27th
we got around early, bt still didnt manage to get out of house till late.
shawn and steph and i were supposed to goto the city but shawn ended up
goign with his gf. steph and i went tot he academy of science they have
a skull exhibit. i took lots of photo sso id have more to draw from. we
ended up having dinner at north beach pizza, then coffee and torte at
cafe greco (also in north beach) its was nice.
april 26th
steph and i have the house to ourselves. ended up going to mary's for
dinner really late. got some new work clothes. and soem damn fine shoes.
nicest pair of shoes
ive ever owned. got a haircut finally. diffneret than normal. no military
"do"
april 25th
worked more. mark would like to see repitition. i abhor repitition. the
art of war teaches to not try the same vicotry the same way twice. ill
finger somethign out.
april 19th-24th
yeah. lackluster on updates. lets see no frills: still not graduating
one more SSU semester. we whitewashed teh bulletin board. that project
is done with. and we are bitter. integrity smintegrity. i have astigmatism
in my left eye. my presription has changed. i had 3 cavities filled. my
mo mhad a birthday and i had dinner with 'rents it was good. got new headphones.
beat smw awhile ago, workign on thps2 now. went to the city to spedna
day, one of steph's friends birthday. we went to bucoo de beppi or soemthing.
it sucked major ass. avoid that place like the plague. the only thing
worse thent he food was the atmosphere. def. not worth the 1.5hr wait.
and if they read this, mebbe they shold jus tnot seat ppl for dinner anywhere
near a bar where there are ppl who wait for an hour and one half. durh
you. spit. had a good milkshake at girardelli restaraunt. went to a kar-e-oky
bar party thing on friday. it was lame. we left when someone there busted
out with the shania twain. got my talkign to by kurt the other day. badness.
he was pissed and aggresive so i aquiesced. no sense arguing with belligerence.
blah. we are def. antagonistic. but nothing seems to be motivating the
other people. today i gave a ride to a thichhiking calssmate. he wrote
his paper awhile ago (its due next week) hes a total pothead guy. and
he was saddeened that hed gottne a b on something cause he never gets
b's, only a's. then me and shawn thought well maybe we should be smoking
pot. maybe thats why everyone is different from us. but then we figured
maybe thats why noon can draw to save their lives either. im done. oh,
in 4 days im going to attempt to roll out a new layout. lookit this. i
made this on my new pocketpc in class today.
april 18th
a friend of mine died on the 12th. she fell 150ft, to her not-immediate
death. from a tree she was trying to protect. that had been canceled for
tree-death 3
days prior. i could see her funeral form my house. i didnt go. funerals
still arent my bag baby. went to schoo.l ive pissed everyone there off.
the entire print class definitely does not want to hear the rumours behind
their backs. say it aloud, and sign it. youre an enemy. snide. gallery
opening today. drank way too much. then got high on paint fumes. i really
must remember to take painting outside before using various spray fixtures
and paints on it. hmm. better luck next time doof. GOOD GAME> whatver
fuck you. fuck printmakers. fuck untruths and snideness. if you dont ant
to hear it like it is, dont put your art work in a public forum. and if
you need to vent, i put up a statement, quit eating ass and be productive
you little pieces of BFA shit. you got let in because you applied. that
isnt an honour. thats a disgrace. it is similar to the disgrace you should
feel after exhibitioning that filthy thing you called a finished plate.
i give half of one shit about your feminist issues. tahts easy. thats
beginner freshman easy. fins something worth talkign about. i can push
you down. arrogance is bliss mother fuckers. we are going to whitewash
our bulletin board i believe. apathy and non response. also shawn and
i tlaked to a rpintmaking teacher about enrolling in a class collaboratively.
he was down, said it sound lieka damn good idea. so we might do it. if
i dont get killed by printmakers before it happens.
april 17th
i wen tto work. still no solution for allegra. we're looking at final
solution now. mein nein. some other drama. 25k ip collisions on t1 csu.
yeah. went to school. briefly. said "fuck school" then went
to steph's. i had my first mar-gah-reet-ah with a party of 12 @ chevy's
o-lay.
april 16th
got my grad stuff squared away, im just gonna have to be at ssu for one
more semester. if i do it right ill get a minor in art history. shawn
was tlakign about enrolling in classes as a collaborative group. we work
together under the moniker "diversionmary" hence the billboard
project is a "dm" project. this website was originally created
to be a place for online critiques. but i havent coded the neccesary pages
for it. ideally, ppl would send in their pieces (jpg, tiff etc...) and
they would have their own galleries... we would all critique them. like
suck y composition, nice layering etc. only ppl could not critique unless
they submitted something too. so there wouldnt be oddballs p.u.-ing everything.
anyway just a thought, now onto the pics.
anythign with a 103 pretag is a recent (withing hte last week) pic. here
is a stitch.
april 15th
went to school, worked till 1:30a there. ill put pics up later. wokred
on bulletin board mostely. shawn bought my old hp. got a diff digicam,
a canon s330, instead of s300. little bit less mp, but some other interesting
feautres, like manual ISO control.
april 14th
SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY come see the monster motor p3aganza. my parents came
home 3hrs early, hooo-boy cant wait till i get my own place. thoguh lately
i think that my own place thing is a myth. went to the beach. it was gail-force
winds. i opened my eyes and got sand in them, then i opened my mouth to
say "ow" and i got sand in my mouth. the moral of this story
is im goign to fucking destroy sand, so watchout mizzy-fizzy im a gunnin'
for yas.
april 13th
i got a queen size bed/frame yesterday for free. its ultra nice. dropped
steph on her head while horsing around last
night, scared us real bad, it bent weird. it still hurts her right now,
so she's calling kaiser. i took some pics of other paintings that i ha
dforgotten to take pics of. also i skipped jury duty yesterday. ooopsies.
i called in time to not get marked absent and get arrested. and i also
got a jury duty pardon for one year. the lady on the phone was real nice.
today we got out of bed around 2. we had been in bed for 14hrs or some
such. just enjoying big bed-ed-ness ;)
april 12th
today steph and i have been together 11months, keen eh? to top off yesterdays
weird day, i went to dinner with kendra
whom i have not seen in almost a year, then rearanged my room. i dint
get my bed yet though. foudn out my sub was operating @ half bass. so
now im hummin' i got a 4 drawer filing cabinet today, picked out the kind
of desk i want and made arrangements to get all the sthi out of here that
isnt mine. my office is gonna be huge. i eyeball that its about het same
square footage as my room give or take. yay big office. told the folks
at work abotu the non-graduating thing. everybody seems more sympathetic
than i think they should be. after all, its my fault, i shoulda known
that it wouldnt be that easy to get out. so, 9 bullshit units. swimmingyogaweighttraining.
april 11th
what a weird day it has been so far. got a letter from school letting
me know that no i am not going to be graduating. im goign to have to challenege
3units @ ssu, then take the rest @ JC. so im right back tot the same place
i was 5yrs ago. ugh. crit went good. got lots of complements, some helpful
critisicms. my "glaze" went on well, seems to have miscolored
part of the inks i used. on top of the base image which was acryllics,
oils, paint pens, sharpie, ball point and colored pencil i added a layer
or 2 of workable fixative. then several layers of satin finish varnish,
then today i put on 3 or 4 coats of clear gloss enamel. this is what it
looks like dead on, from any side where light hits it it shines like a
mirror. here it is.
april 10th
what a miserable day. got to be in the studio till late though im nearly
finished with painting. just gonna clear varnish it tommorrow. ill post
pics when i get that done. crit is tommorrow. i want to buy a squatty
potty. a friend of mine has a room for rent for $330 im thinking about
it. no lease, no deposit.
april 9th
painting. coupla ppl critted, i worked on what i am going to xerox transfer
into speech bubblet. tired today
april 8th
work, still cant get that damn proof right. im getting v. frustrated.
most signs point towards a new printing house. got to paint today. stayed
in studio till 5p, then came back and stayed till 2a.
april 7th
we woke up "late" fucking time change. her dad has this thing
with people waking up early. im gonna be so happy when we or at least
i have/has our own place. next weekend we'll finally have some alone time.
no parents. yay. youd think we were 15 or something. went to oldtown sactown
today. walked around, i had a headache and a neckcrick form her plastic
dust pillow thing so i wasnt too into it.
april 6th
woke up, worked out then rode bike, then helped dad build fence. now im
sore. v. sore. went over to steph's. no wait,
went to neensy's and fixed her roomat amber's new laptop up. then met
steph at her house around 8:30, (shes been in LA all week) met steph's
friend and we went to a late dinner.
april 5th
bullshit. hey dummy, norton internet security provides a firewall for
evertyhing, local or remote. therefore dlink nics are not shit, norton
internet security is.me: "thisis acting like its firewalled"
user, dunno, several hours later after swapping nic after nic, settting
up dhcp and diff static ranges, flushing arp etc. "whats this little
icon?" norton internet security, right click exit and it works. beautious,
cant even yell at anyone. att tried to screw me
april 4th
bought a used hp565 today for $300, trading in my hp548 for $150 so a
brand new pda is gonna be $150, sweet. went ofr a bike ride around spring
lake and downtown and stuff. had another client call, dlink nic's are
bitches. im gonna have to go back tommorrow with a diff nic :/ thats exactly
what i want to do with my friday. sweetie, heres the pics you wanted,
#1 and #2
april 3rd
work. got my health ins packet.stopped by jon's shop, nothing too exciting.
more stuff on doodle page. paintings etc,
most older stuff.
april 2nd
had aclient call in teh morning, it was quick so when done i went to steph's
we took care of some errands then met my sis for dinner. it was cool
april 1st
25ish more days and it marks 1 yr anniversary of this log thing. guess
itll be time to start rotating it per month. got health ins today. starting
to look at furniture for the office. ranc0r suggests black leather and
chrome and giger prints. what do
you think?
march 31st
easter dinner hting with steph's family.
it was loud and peopley. i got spilled on twice. like in the cartoons
when someone spills and the steam rises from their heads? yeah like that.
i have lots of candy 3 moms worht of candy. noone must know im 22, they
will take my kidcandy. also, heres a tip, catholics dont think its funny
to call it bad friday or even ask why it isnt bad friday... nor "zombie
sunday" also, try not to theorize that perhaps jesus was stolen from
his tomb instead of that whole acension thing. logic need not apply in
the face of the catholic church. oh, final note, noone thinks dancing
the "thriller" dance (michael jackson) while pretending to be
jesus is funny, nor is stalkign around like a zombie jesus and saying
"braaaaaiiiinnnsss bRRRAAAAAIIIINNNSS" thats a church fo-paw
too. i had to be warned. "do not do this when we get to my aunt mary's
house". guess i got into the cat medicine again
march 30th
did i mention invader zim fucking rocks? zim rocks. i ordered a tshirt
from explodingdog.com the other
day
march 29th

march 22nd

lunch order :)
march 17th
bought supermario world: super mario advance 2 it fucking rocks, this
game came out like 11years ago. it fucking rocks. ive blown through it
till vanilla dome so far tonight. it sure takes me back though. lately
ive been grabbing onto everything from 10th grade, whenever a song plays,
or say legend of zleda: a link to the past. rocking stuff. i used to come
home from HS ( iw as in alph ayear of artquest) and play video games while
it rained outside. sitting in my sis's bean bag chair. man, crappy tv,
hand me down snes. nothin better. i hope they start poritng a lot of snes
games over to gba, like chrono trigger, zelda, the castlevania's, super
metroid. ooh, uniracer (dumb game) we went to calistoga today too, it
was pretty boring though, we booked early.
march 16th
i slept till noon, steph's parents were worried
and wondering if they should wake me up. ended up comign home and clenaign,
i hit a neatfreaker nerve when i got home so i just cleaned the whole
room, got 2 pairs new jeans last night and didnt have a drawer to put
them in. so i got rid of all my shoes that no longer fit or clothes that
dont fit (some were from 9th grade) cleaned my bathroom up too. finished
reading the virgin suicides. didnt end up going to sleep till 3 cuase
of a moch i got to help me sutdy for my midterm dealie. ended up pulling
a poor p3 and boohooing my way to sleep. this whole having-to-push-paper
and making-neat-rows-of-numbers-in-excel thing has really got me down.
i have to work with my hands, im not going to be happy being a fucking
estimator.
march15th
went over to steph's her whole lent thing
had us goign to pietro's for a halfsies cheese and meat pizza, they had
sierra nev. on tap, yumsters. had to go to bed early cause she had a job
faire up in woodland the next morning early, she got pink slipped from
her HS, they mismanaged their budget and lost 6mil. (according to latest
tally) so they laid off a bunch of teachers. boxx
and i stretched my ears teh other day, thogh we used somethign tha tcan
rust, so now my earsa re kinda fucked up and im gonna have to pay neil
to get 'emn repierced i bet, oh well, ill just get them cored out to the
larger size i wanted, 8 gauge i think
march 14th
went to school for 1 hr then had a client call, they had a virus, and
mcaffee half deleted it, but only after it had hosed all the exe's so
trendmicro's online virus scanner foind nothing, norton 2k2 found nothing
and i fdisked the mbr to be safe. fucking weird thing it was a 40gb drive,
with a fat16 partition,(yes i know this is impossible)
march 13th
what if i continued to work part time after degree and got an apprenticeship
with Sim to learn tattooing?
march 12th
had a bad crit today, step backards. wen tto dinner at a hoity toity steak
house in sonoma. pixar meeting style hoity. my steak was expensive. i
had an apple martini. got to see steph on
our 10mth togetherness date. ten months is almost a year. kelila sparked
steph, now i have to goto philly :/ went
home and drank. im reading the virgin
suicides.
march 11th
people keep asking me if im alright, i seem quiet lately is everything
ok? its weird. i feel like something is changing but i dont know what,
perhaps im goign through my next brain-growth. is this the final one?
its a kind of listlessness. im not causing any trouble anymore, im not
contraversial, just plain. ive become plain. its sickening. that and i
think im worrieed about the future. i have a job here. that has been said,
though it may consist partly of being a junior estimator or project engineer,
both things that i can hardly feign interest in. had i my druthers, i
would be a tattooist. i feel like im not only ignoring my art-side but
completely amputating it in the near future.
march10th
woke up real late with steph, she figured
we should get up cause it was late, she didnt want her parents to think
we was a foolin' around. her mom made us a good breakfast (around 1p)
then i went home. the plan was to get into the studio and paint all day
sunday, i ended up only going in for 2hrs~. got what i needed to get done,
done.
march 9th
went to steph's dad's sport-night fundraiser
dealie. got roped into setting up and taking do the thing. steph
and i had more or less settled in for the night, then at midnight we got
called back over to take the thing down. it was fun i guess. wasnt really
my scene so i couldnt get comfortable. the dancing mostly consisted of
a really bad track selection and old drunk teachers. though my name is
not larry, so thats a plus.
march 8th
here are pics of the
latest painting.
ill scan soem stuff later too and add it to the doodle section.
march 7th
work, then school. have to know umpteen bajillion slides for n00b art
history teacher. she set up her quizzing different than any other arth
class ive had. instead of familiar 15 slide id or so + 1 or 2 essays,
wee have 4 essays that are based one pages and pages of slides that we
have to know all about. this wouldnt be too difficult if the art was at
all interesting, such as it was in contemporary arth. here we have a portrait,
and another portrait, and a shitty landscape, and another shitty landscape.
early american art hisotry is just pure ass. the imagination these guys
possess was null and void.
march 6th
started a new paitning today. was going for longoesque.
march 5th
work.
feb 28th-march 4th
somehow i lost a day in there... the last entry was supposed to be for
the 28th. thogh i dont care enoug hto fix it. friday steph
came over and we were special and i had CS
practice fo reh big match that was on sunday. then saturday we went wine
tasting and i thought up a new plate and i got new pants a new shirt and
new shoes. it was a very nice day. steph put her head on my should while
we walked in sonoma. she is sweet. sunday we woke up late got dressed
later and then she left at three or so. we didnt make it to the beach
liek we thought we might but oh well. we did have a picnic at buena vista
winery the day before. lindsay came home this weekend, i barely saw her.
we inivted her to go do stuff with us but it didnt work out. sunday shawn's
car broke down in inverness right as i was about to goto bed so i went
and got him and didnt get home/bed till 1:30 then i had to wake up early
to take him to school. he needs a good cheap car. i changed the front
page. that way ppl might hopefully goto the doodle section first if they
are first-timers. plus i was bored. im goign to do somethign new with
this. ive been looking at 3com.com i
like their design, sans JS. steph left her
jackets and watch and eyeglasses case and wine at my hosue so im goign
there after work today to deliver them to her. server is still running
great, boss complimented me on the performance of the vpn aspect. his
experince is now better form home. we lost the cs match on sunday. we
let them play with HLTV
installed on their server. if i had known what it was, if any of us had
known what it was we would hav denied it. so we got ghosted... live and
learn we fought hte good fight.
feb 27th
today there was an art dept field trip to nathan oliveira's show in SJ.
i didnt go, fuck fieldtrips and crowds and stuff. i wen to work instead,
which is a good hting caus ethe mail server went bongo. qpopper kept trying
to resolve back to local ip address, (even though allow_host_relay was
set for this class) and so then it really b0rked but rob
id'd the problem then fixed it. good ol' hot python codin' action. i didnt
have a proper bind db for my lan. durh me. look
feb 26th
woke up the usual way, with work calling me to fix something (i.e. hold
someones hand through mapping a network drive) they should "it
would be in their best interest to" hire me fulltime. new painting
will be a robert longo esque portraiture or so.
feb 25th
today was first real test, got pulled in a million directionsby the users.
got a lot of them resolved but none of the other half of my job (the whole
marketing graphics thing) :) so i also set up a vpn server on that server
today, my old netstructure
3110 was b0rking with ISC's DHCPd poptop
works good though.
feb 24th
not feeling like fucking with samba so the file server is w2kserver for
a moment. everythign is working great so far. had an issue with internal
relaying via exim, bt a conf change and it works. had work buy me oreilly's
exim book and bash

feb 23rd

os tommorrow
feb 22nd
ok, today got the comms server back up, set up debian, with kernel 2.2.17,
masqing, dhcp, httpd, samba, ftp, ssh, and of course, email (exim). stress-ful.
not too mention that server was the PDC with no BDC ( i didnt set this
up) so i had a rinky dink way of authing users for files, that is holding
for now.
feb 21st
oh shit. guess what died? thats right the comms/mail server, 2 of the
3 scsi drives died. 1 was system, and 1 was 1/2 of the raid setup. ouch.
comms server, running nt4/sp6/iis/xchng5.5 my goal for 2002 was to replace
NT with linux, i guess nows mychance
feb 20th
so the bosses wife wants to make changes tot eh graphic that was due last
friday. isnt htat nice of her to kibitz in like that?
feb 19th
lordy. had a paitning crit today, it went good. well recieved, the areas
i knew i needed to work on were pointed out not htat they were bare but
things i thought might need more oomph. anyway so that went good and i
worked on superplate some more. then i went home and worked on it more
yet. its soo relaxing having only one studio class. plus im still getting
work done on plates without hte kurt aggravation. ill upload proofs sometime
soon i guess, i dont think ive ever scanned in the one plate ive been
on and off again working on since last june or july.
feb 18th
woke up with steph, took our time didnt relaly
ahve to be anywhere. did i mention neensy finally got the sentra back
form the mechanic? took 3 freakin weeks. anyways. went to school and painted.
got done painting and decided to stop by print studio. saw what newkid
was doing. it was good, almost too good, so i busted out with 3 proofs
with a new state. decided that im gonna split the plate into a 3rd of
what it was. the middle third looks good the rest is not worthy of keeping.
also decided to go crazy on a plate. so im not gonna give up my place
without some kinda fight. i hear the guy is actually really nice. hes
doing a bunch of hr giger shit now. if you know me you know i love giger,
but damn, it sticks out like a sore thumb, looks all ghetto metallica
cover art tributey. technique is good, subject is notgood.
feb 17th
we wen tto teh city today to go see the dada/surrealism show at the palace.
im into the dada ideal/idea but i think they took it too far in execution.
good theory, bad execution. the surrealism stuff was awesome, i shoulda
been born in the surrealist time, i woulda fit right in. perhaps its time
for newsurrealism? we could call it newsur. later on we met up with stephs
folks and had dinner at colare in north beach. we got there just in time,
like 15minutes later the place was super croweded, but when we got there
it was empty. diunner was good then we went for coffee and desserts then
home. then we had soem more dessert ;)
feb 16th
today we went to a wedding of our friends. cicely and brian got married.
they had a mass-wedding (as in catholic, not as in creepy cult, well not
as in super creepy FOLLOW THE LEADER cult. hmm no i mean ok it was a wedding
with a mass that was catholic. well you knw what i mean, the culty kinda
religon that is frowned upon, not the culty kind that has been around
forever.) so i tried to be as insolent as possible during all the godmumble
parts. steph knew all that shit on cue. its
weird watching your sweetie get groovy with god. i axed her about some
of it later and she couldnt remember it. i guess a lot of it is pavlovian
in response. at the reception i had so much fun. we danced like all night
and i drank a lot of wine and champagne and we met new friends and it
was great. later on we went home and i was still kinda drunk and steph
fell asleep on me and then her mom just sent us to bed. ( i was asleep,
dont know)
feb 15th
ah yes. today i finished my sonoma country day school graphic, and got
it sent over to printhouse via secretary. steph
came over and guess what she had made me? a heart-shaped berry pie. her
first pie-making experience. it was good. she also got me candy. lots
of good candy. i heart her to pieces. we went out to dinner @ the coast
(lucas wharf) cause she is doing the lent thing and cant eat meat. the
wait was long and the food wasnt that good, we both got fried dishes,
not the best representational dish but it wasnt htat good fried food either,
and boy dog was it pricey. (for what it iswas) btw, i love oysters, but
there was definitely something wrong with those oysters.
feb 14th
i am a sneaky sweetie! i woke up @ 5:30 and went to vacabille and gave
steph one dozne roses form henry's it was
a big bouquet, i had told her all week previous that i couldnt see her
on vday cause of school, but i got to surprise her in class, and boy was
she surprised. then i hung around and waited till her 3rd period and we
went for a coffee date, i love her so much.. this is the vday
card i drew for her. also worked on painting too, (new
state)
[22:09] PH3RR3TISE: i surprised her in class
[22:09] ucdlindsb: in front of everyone??
[22:09] PH3RR3TISE: yep
[22:09] PH3RR3TISE: :)
[22:10] ucdlindsb: interupted class and everything? what did you do
[22:13] PH3RR3TISE: well
[22:13] PH3RR3TISE: i wen into the main office
[22:13] PH3RR3TISE: and htey werent gonna let me deliver flowers
[22:14] PH3RR3TISE: but these 2 TA's talked them into letting me if they
escorted me.
[22:14] PH3RR3TISE: so we went, and i got in and asked if ms jones was
in, the students in calss all stared at me [22:15] PH3RR3TISE: so she
says im here form her office, and the escorts says somethng like hes got
flowers, so she asks who they are for not looking up still, so i say look
up and she looks up and jumps and says OMG!... later on we had a cofee
date.
i hate typing things twice :)
feb 13th
so chris pointed out that ive
had the wrong month. its actually february not january. a server blew
up today. i learned today that there are only 25 client licenses available
for SBS... maximum. so 35 users later and ive got a license problem. im
gonna switch that one over to some good ol debian, i was worried about
my vpn hardware but itll be ok i think. so basically this server will
be running exim/qmail dhcpd, sshd and thats it. pretty small potatoes
for a mylex 8mb scsi raid and dual p3 450's w/ 384mb's ecc. today was
rough, ill upload what ive been working on later. (its for sonoma country
day school) full page ad. rich bitch stuff.

then we went and lookign for dresses for her for same wedding. i hate
shopping. i get all whiney. i just get teh 5yr old wanna sit down and
not walk around anymore touching ever dress blues. so i did good though,
i only complained a little bit. then we went and looked a thte car she
wants to get, a 2k2 ford fuckus zx5 (four door hatchback similar to mine)
then we came hoem and had a nice ham dinner, and then i went home and
finished the apache snafu, i fixed par to fit this mornign before i left,
the other part was just s imple i had the wrong ip resolving to vritual
host by name directive. my bad. adlso i was using wrong serveralias. instead
of a url i wanted a uri but ill just do that in the bind db for that domain.
so here we go, the host and the hosted
uNF uNF ready for rock and or roll.
jan 9th
so we went and saw black hawk down last night. only on our way out the
door someone egged my car. so i cleaned it, then we noticed that stephs
fcar got egged too. the sucky part is that the egging took actual paint
off my car. so it sucks, lots of paint missing for a freakin egg :( i
ve had the car for one month now. on the plus side i went to dinner iwth
family over at halfaunts and anpped liek all day on her nice leather sofa.
i want a leather sofa. so played iwth adams server some wmore, got most
of the virtual hosting stuff working tonight, but broke apache so ill
have to fix tommorrow.

also a does good work but tends to socialize with is neighbors" kinda
guy those 2 things have followed me since elementary school. somewhere
in JC i figured out im my own worst enemy on everything but what i love
doing. so im painting and after about 5mins i get bored and go look for
shawn, or got get cany or a soda. that whole be still and quiet thing
is unerving. on the plus side 2 lillingtons albums fit on one cd with
room for 3 groovie ghoulies songs. i hear thte lillingtons and hte ghoulies.
L-I-LL-ING-TONS. L-I-LL-ING-TONS. L-I-LL-ING-TONS. L-I-LL-ING-TONS. L-I-LL-ING-TONS.

jan 5th

get work to gimme 32hrs so i can get health bennies and y'know, money.
jan 4th

kick ass system similar to mine cept more ram.
jan 30th-feb 3rd
wow long time no update. built a
server, built a webpage,

laptop (still needs to be fixed) in exchange for server build. steph
came over all weekend and it was nice. met jrray from irc went to dinner,
had too much to work on going to ask for more hous at work. got a new
studio spot its all out in teh open and dumb, but oh well. can thtink
of anythign else righ tnow. oh yes i dyed my hair red today.
jan 29th
today was a day. alarm started going off at 6:30. i slapped it silly every
3 mins for two hours and seven minutes. then a client called:
Client: big emergency.
me: ok i have time right now.
Client: ok
me: other line (call waiting)
Work: Big Emergency!
me: ok i have time right later
== bling blign bizatches hizzy fo shizzy up in the rizzy mizzyfizzies.
anyway. money is good. first day of school today. kinda jacked. mark forgot
that i was gonna be in his class but because he had wrote me a note saying
htat i get hn his class this semester and signed it he let me in. shawn
has a big space, bigger than we had last semester, to himself. he is cool
with me and mark is cool with me working out of that space. it sounds
like kurt is not cool iwht it, he gave me the slip. this semester is all
about adequacy i prophesize. tommorrow i will be setting up a debian server,
nothing much, apache, vhosts, ftp, ssh, smtp. they also want dns and webmail,
i havent done those before. ill learn. and live. my sweetie
knows that i love her. did i mention i had a Perfect Cheating Opportunity
(tm) and i did not take it. i know that sounds a bit low but when you
love someone you cant even fathom cheating on them. i know it sounds weird
but take it from me, mcgruff the crime dog. and kara
the monkay. this moringin when i was leaving i got in a verbal tussle
with a bloated white guy. he was cruising around kinda shady like, and
he stopped in fron of my house. got out started taking mpicutres of neighbors
hous., then he crossed the street and walked into their backyard. so i
watch him for awhile n shit and then go back in the hose and take pic
of his truck, then when im leaving i sidle up next to him and roll down
window and say "i dont have tim eto watch you all day so i just took
your picture instead" then we had words nee-yah. he was a real estate
guy. apparently where he lives its ok for strangers to go walking thorugh
neighbors yards and does not seem suspicious at all. and i am an asshole
for confronting random weird guy for doing weird guy thigns on someone
elses property. better yet ima fucking asshole. the only thing smartguy
forgot when yelling at me was that he gave me his business card with his
home phone number on it, furthermore; i love the internet
but it is too tempting to test his theory of walking-through-other's-yard's-unaccosted.
jan 28th
today is first monday of the rest of your life. it snowed. i took pics,
ill put them up somewhere. it pretty much looks like snow on objects,
but they are objects that would otherwise never ever see snow unless someone
drove by and held up a poster or a picture of say a snowy field. today
classes start. not for me. tommorrow classes start for me. i picked up
my cell phone. songs for you to get. Looper - Mondo '77., Mr. Oizo - No
Day Massacre. i spent too much money last weekend. i count coup on exercise.
jan 27th
drove home. that new car sure is nice to ride in. steph
had to go home today :/ oh wells. i left my cell phone in her purse so
ill have to go get it tommorrow. after she left i ended up going over
to shawn's for a beer and to shoot some shit. i thoguth my first day of
school was tommorrow, but it aint. school is tues/thurs 1-4p, we 4-6:40p.
so easy schedule. i started doing exercises today. i am a big fatty. a
gut is forming cause i havent done shit over break so im starting to work
it away now.
jan 26th
showed steph ferndale, well jus the uptown
part, it was too wet to show her all the other cool stuff. gramma seems
to really like her. which is good, i love gramma and respect her opinion.
went to dinner with sean @ curley's uptown. sean and i got the last 2
pieces of prime rib. gramma had made apple pie so later we all sat and
talked and ate pie. yay 4 us.
jan 25th
well well well. i took off work early so we could goto ferndale today.
steph had to teach in vacaville then teac
another class in RP. eventually we got on the road uNF uNF ;) took forever
to get there, my quickest time is 3hr9m, took over 4hrs. it was rainging
most of the way. we stopped at a good drive-in on the way up, ive been
going there since i was a wee'un. gramma surprised me, we slept in the
same room (steph and i)
jan 24th
went and saw my sweetie baby today. we saw
a picture show, the royal tenenbaums. i am too souless and unimaginative
to understand that i was supposed to be captivated with the characters
and not want for something more. the entire movie was character setup,
id point out at what point i thought the movie began to be a movie and
not just an elaborate multi character profile but it wouldbe a spoiler.
im prolly just not smart enough for the movie. i lack british wit. or
mebbe its because over this break ive been watching tv. i feel more dumber.
ive been reading james patterson at a rate of 1 book a day but i still
cant make it through james joyce anything.
jan 23rd
ok. i worked and made cool graphics. then i went home. and was tired.
and took a nap . the nap lasted for 3hours. so i more or less went to
bed at 7pm. im old.
jan 22nd
went drawing with shawn last night. im gonna miss that once im FULLTIMEWORKERMAN.
today shawn and i went to the city to a coupla galleries. we got lost,
and turned around but then we found our way out. i am now cool wit hthe
city. we had a Pthree Brand Breakthrough (tm). took the oldcar over to
the mech. so it could get all fixed up for lindsay.
jan 21st

disease. she is dying. these are pics i took for neensy, dont bother clicking
if you didnt know missy. she hasnt OFFICIALLY
been addison's I.D'd but its like 99.99999% sure to teh vets. the treatment
is $$$/month. so she will be put down. she is a good dog. we went to the
shriner's crabfeed tonight, it was good i guess.
jan 17th
set up raid, reinstallated w2k from a format. tweaked the fuck out of
system. she runs fast. not good enough so i spent the day o/c'ing. now
she runs groin grabbingly fast. i have her clocked to 1595mhz (defualt
is 1476mhz) so she is a xp1900+. im goign to go for xp2000+ as soon as
i set up better cooling. she craps out righ tnow @ 150mhz bus but posts
just fine. so i need tot find the magic numbers between 145 and 150.
jan 16th
i got my 30gb drive back from wd. that means i can set up my raid array
now. 120gbs. jbod or 0. im learnign C at work. printf ("hello, dudes\n");
now ill be more marketable.
jan 15th
went over to steph's. i got her sick. when
i got there ew decided to take a nap and so we burrowed together in her
little rabbit-warren sick cave and napped. it was nice. then her mom had
to goto a meeting so i finsihed up dinner. we had veal roast, mashed potatoes
with eh skins and a nice salad. yay us. met up with adam later. his technology
guy is screwing him over. so i might be re-setting up a server for him
apache, ssh, ssl, ftp, pop3, smtp and the like. certainly not a lot of
work. even less if i can take other guys's bsd scripts over to bash.
jan 14th
here are some more pages...
they constitute most of what ive done over breaky. pretty sad. and as
a reminder here is a bunch of other pics as
well. went out with shawn for coffee and drawing. both of us have
the need for speed. liquid speed as in liquid ink. my anti-drug is drawing.
gaybo. anyway so we drew on stuff @ borders. shawn rehooked up with sylvanie.
ice-princess extrordanaire. she dicks him over a lot and he takes it cause
hes a bitch.
jan 13th
another boring day. it feels so weird to have nothing to do and nowhere
i need to be. im getting less sick after a midday relapse my throat hurts
no longer. i need to start scanning some of the stuff ive been doing recently.
jan 12th
i didnt have to goto work meeting after all, it isnt till the 19th. steph
left real early in the morning and i had a whole blank day ahead, cause
i had woken up so early my internal time was all off and i had a whole
boring day to myself. steph got done with her teacher orientation thingee
early so she came back over and hung out till she had to go down to concord
to see her friends. i ened up going over to chris's and scott and sam
were there too. scott knew exactly what was wrong with the sentra, had
even fixed it before, he is going to get me the nissan service bulletin
for it so i can take it to jons mechanic and get it fixed right.
jan 11th
lusers tripped the breakers that the servers are on. they share a wall
with servers and they had a space heater plugged in via crappy electric
ext. cord. the cord was hot. they got verboten and berated.

dont jinx it. only when i have the keys ain my hand and all the reg info

sentra. it needs $300 for the installation of a new timing chain tensioner
(100 of rpart 200 for labour) and it needs the original springs put back

im goign to sell it for low blue book o.b. ($3,070) its got 78k miles,
power everything, tokico shocks, eibach sport springs, aftermarket alarm
and dents in the left side. if anyone knows someone that could use this
email me. my parents
were tlakign about paying it off and giving it to my sister. she gets
kind of pig headed sometimes and wont listen though. she doeesnt understnad
that once i put hte springs back in and new shocks it will be a confortable
ride. oh well. neensy if you read this call mom, we cant get ahold of
you with your phone and email down.
jan 8th

an dhte steinbeck museum. it is boring. the wharf in monterey is cool,
we walked there at night alot. it rained most of the trip, but it was

but htere was a spa avail. i lost my contacts swimming the first night.
i bouht a new desk, now my room is more convenient. iill take pics later,
MY NEW CAMERA SHIPPED! canon s300 come to me. wish i would have had it

and were warm.
dec 21st

cool, its for this american heart assoc. thing. "women's legacy"
so i digipic'd them from above birds-eyey but the fucking POS kodak cam
only tkaes pics in 72dpi, so this is gonna look pretty bad.
dec 18th
ok did presentation, it went well i think, the kiddies axed some good
questions. someone serioulsy needs to sit they asses down and tell them
what art school is about and what collge in general is about. spent a
lovelygreat day with steph, i napped while she sub'd for 2 classes, then
we went and saw vanilla sky. i gotta see it again befor i formulate a
realgood (tm) opinion. i uploaded a shitpot of new doodles. these i stripped
off of my wall when i cleaned out my studio last weekend. so they are
all here. lemme

dec 17th
editing my presentation for the high school dealy tommmorrrooowww.
dec 16th
we woke up kinda earlyish, steph hasnt been feeling well. :/ ate, read
newspaper, normal sunday stuff then she went home and i went to the studio
for cleanup. someone stole a print form my portfolio, shawn thinks kurt
(our printmaster) did it, ill aks him on monday at lisa's party. the gallery
broke yoram's refridgeerator piece all to fuck, i helped a little to move
it out, its in pieces now.
dec 15th
i quote: "someone ganked most of the good drawings off the b.b. my
lzansky piece... as well as your twist guy... someone was also poking
around my and yours portfolios... i had left mine on a table earlier and
yours wasn't ontop the pile... when i went back to grab them mine was
under yours and yours was on top of the stack... odd" the "b.b."
is our bulletin board. i hope people wont be stealing our drawings faster
than we can draw them. we caught to gay-bladers stelaing hte other night,
but since the piece is about reponse too, and stealing our drawings is
a response what can ya do? richard and kurt seem to think its flattery.
but the pessimist in me thinks its people being spiteful. steph and i
are goign to the city today to the MOMA. then italy-town. went to her
school's xmas party last night, bunch of teachers, all of which i didnt
know. oh well, ther is a HUGE diffference between private company xmas
parties and state-sponsored ones.
dec 14th
im uploading pics here and here
fixed my laptop, when they mounted the cdrom to the cdrom assembly/chassis
they sherared a screrew so i replaced it and now it seems to be working
a lot better. I applied for graduation. dept head signed off on it. so
next semester i take 2 classes and im out. cept i think ill take 4 so
that i dont lose health ins and car ins. so ill take adv paitning, adv
etching, american art history and yoga or some other silly nonsense. A
lot of people are graduating form art dept this or next semester. a big
change of guard almost. the old lot is moving out and me and shawn are
picking up the little bits. they let us get away with so much there. as
you can see from the state property in photos above. they gave us that
bill board for all of next semester and so on. also we get another one
that we can move around. so im gonna have to fenagly my name into the
commencement announments. as i applied acccidently for august grad instead

grafitto amigos dm, 413.
dec 2nd
my sweetie went home and i got to work, i
assembled the pshop doc im going to use to project to start new painting,
and i did a lot of work on my final for drawing (sketchbook animations)
so i modified all the scannings i have so far and uploaded them (per shawn's
orderings) so here they are so far, check back
daily cause these are states of pages. and they tend to change a lot from
day to day. feh i may make some simple giffy images of the animations
just for fun to put up, dunno.ok talked to shawn, there is n/p between
us he's gonna tlak to jasper. we thoguht about making it a long performance
piece, shoving matches, spilled ink, ripped drawings and what not but
i doubt we do that. on a good note, i fixed my nokia 8260... it has been
making a rattling noise and turning itself off, so i got out my knife
repairing tools and cracked that sumbitch open... a screw that held the
antennae to the body had gotten loose and was apparently causeing a short.
so its all fixed now.
boy am i glad novembers over. steph axed me if i was ok with november
the other day, and i said i was but ive defineitly been feeling it. ill
upload the pics from the last paintings and youll see.
dec 1st
took the WEPT today, ssu's version of exit exams, ended up drawing over
most of a desk, large fat naked ugly man on a stick. went to dinner with
jamie and lisa @ volpi's apparently there is a rumour going around that
shawn and i are at ends over something i said during the etching crit
the other day, but that is "bunk"
nov 30th
yay i can work whatever limited hours i want until finals are over easy
peasy.
nov 29th
the power went off and i was looking for an excuse to forget to goto school
today. i havent missed one class this semester, and im sick of being in
the studio (just in time for finals crunch) for finals i have:
1 portfolio for etching
1 plate for etching
1 portfolio for drawing
1 giant ass animation/display of states of drawings for drawing
1 comic book (collaborative w/ shawn) for theory
1 3'x4' (possibly diptych 6'x4') painting for durh, painting. ihave to
take the wept on saturday. i havent hand written anything in a long while.
nov 28th
arnet these
just super cool?
i hope youre as happy as youre pretending. isnt that nice from our dashboardian
confessionale friends?
i also want a theremin kit. i looked
at the schem's for several design's and they are more that what this p3
is goign to do, and assembled theremins are like a bajillion dollars.
today is a day. i gesso'd up 2 canvasi yesterday. i found 6 3'x4' canvases
behind a dumpster (by "i" i mean shawn) frank said that they
were of the quality to be sold for $200 a piece (for stretchers) they
were constructed several months before i was born. how is that. for. neat.
the lady had them in some gallery in la, they were crappy acrylic NEOGEO
line paintings, easy to replicate, one was cool the rest was hippy dippy
shit youd expect out of a 1979 acrylic painter from LA. my next painting
is going to be of a sunday painter. i.e. a painter in a grage witha still
life set up on the hood of a station wagon with oily rags and boxes stacked
all around. im not a painter. im a printmaker, if im a printmaker im a
drawer. got more compliemnts yesterday on what im doing form the professor
man. animatory sketchbook is coming along, professor offered his help
in any way to make sure it gets done right. i got no sleep last niight,
puttered around. adam introduced me to a guy that is going to fix up my
cardents for $150 and detail it too for when i sell it. he says he can
make it cherry. he also has a hook up at all the dealers, so he is goign
to help me get a tacoma for teh cheapz. my green crewneck sweater is falling
apart, all my maroon cardigans are falling apart or lost. i need a thick
olive or sophie-green sweater. but you dont know my palette sophie green
is jan sophie green, kind of a pukey yellowy green, not kelly, darker
kinda. mix cerulean blue with cad yellow hue and youll kinda get it.
nov 27th
worked 14hrs yesterday, made a lot of $$. worked 11hrs today. v tired.
that is a given on any day though. my horoscope told me not to quit today
and that all computers would break. while i like to not put stock in hoodoo,
this is one time when the horoscopey won. so hi. HEI! HONORABLE READER-SAN
nov 26th
im goign to have to move some of this shit html into some kind of archivey
place. this page is now 110KB. i heard once back in my 8086 days tha thte
bible was under 1440KB. its hard to fathom that this might be a thirteenth
of the bible. i think i might start tlaking in license plate too. so that
the previous sentence would be: i thnk i mit strt tlkng n licns plt 2.
wouldnt that be keen?
open up a calendaring program and start flipping into the future. i
stopped at 2288, i will be dust by 2288, so will you, so will your children
and your children's children. you will be a face and a series of dates
on a family tree that is kept on a piece of paper, or perhaps in a file
or whatever the year 2288 equivalent of shitty non-archival medium is.
and that will be tucked somewhere and drug out whenever your children's
children's children's children's children's children want to look at some
funny old people. will the picture of neensy and i on a couhc in 98 still
be used for the tree? will it even matter? if you cure aids or cancer
today would they even know your name in 2288? can you name anything that
was invented or cured 287yrs ago? fuckin' emo. i hate you depress-rock.
i cant stop listening to this faggy emo shit. if you could know the exact
day and time your were goign to die what would you do differently? repent?
murder? fuck all hippify? i made a lady cry today. only it wasnt me. the
supply people put their supplies in the smack dab center of my office
so i axed the supply lady about it and the head accntn was there. he yelled
at her and she cried. was she born 34 some odd yrs ago so that she could
get her suppplies out of my office? is it still murder if its a clinical
procedure? happy november you fat pestulent fucks
nov 25th
got work done, steph graded her paintings for her art class and i worked
on my plate. nice lazy day.
nov 24th
bored bored bored, im not used to having nothing to do. steph went shopping
with my mom for awhile which is good. watched state and main, stupidest
movie ever. i stole its magic. we love flannel sheets. steph gouged my
eye out., im piratey now. jk
nov 23rd
steph came over, we went to the beach and got clam chowder and taffy,
which reminds me its in my car right now. bought some flannel sheets.
nov 22nd
picked up lindsay in davis, looked down, noticed steph's pills on my floor
of car so had to go back to v-town. went home gramma had come down for
tday. had a good dinner. hope yall did too.
nov 21st
noone told me it was casual wednesday, showed up to work in fancy duds,
luckily i had jeans and shirt in car, so i changed. went to steph's. her
mom made some good salmon. been listening to black heart procession, they
use a therimin, i want to build one. we went and saw harry pottr stupid
fucking little teeenagers disrupted the whole thing, they got kicked o9ut
twice., i had myflashlight on me so i flashlighted this girl in their
group and she got the deer in healdight look, priceless.
nov 20th
paitning crit today, showed an installation consisting of the wrong environment
and 21+1 paintings. ill put pics up later, it went over well,. got more
work done on my plate and lil booko.
nov19th
jamie turned us onto black heart procession. give her a whirl. luckie
strike broke up... no more cute drummer for shawn
shawn thought it important that you all saw this.
i sure hope shawn's mom dont read this no more. he stole one of my frames
and in general is a BIGGAY BITAR OF TEH STYLZ! im sofaking bored at work.
everything is working, perfectly. i need to break something so i have
something to fix. so when i graduate and give up the art world forever
i will be limitless. instead of being a talentless hack scrambling for
galleries, ill be a talentless hack alguhing at you talentless hacks for
scrambling for galleries. shawn brought up a nice and cozy point. if you
show in galleries, and sell works, you will be giving 50% to someone else.
before taxes. BWAHAHA eat a bowl of dirt you poor fucking crafty hippies.
now. buy the plate, ground the plate, draw on the plate, etch the plate
wipe the plate, print the plate, ground the plate revise the plate, etch
the plate, print the plate. figure out how much time youve put into your
plates, or paintings, or proccessing yoru chemical photos, then tell jme
that that lousy $350 you make off of a print or proof is worth it... now
divide that in half. you just spent 90hrs for $175. fewl. thats $1.94/hr.
fucking immigrants make more than that. little foreign children who assemble
nikes get more than that. and if you wna tto argue that youre in it for
the soul searching or the message (context/concept) then mother fucker
your concept had better be clear. darger's concept was clear... he liked
to fantasize about school girls. is fischl's concept clear? how about
salle? ryden? dont make me undermine your confidence... ill do it. ill
undermine you good. /me starts slashing
nov18th
steph and i had super indulgent day numero uno uNF uNF. watched chocolat
didnt do a damn thing, just enjoyed each other.
nov 17th
went to aunt toni's for fake thanksgiving, steph came too. everyone was
pleasant which was a relief. my lil cousin is getting into trouble. poor
kid had another gun pulled on him. but thats richmond for ya. its only
a little bit ahead of lake county in the race of assiest places in CA.
nov 16th
ahhhhh yeeeeahhh all week ive been waking up real early to jobsites bitching
about the vpn being unaccessible, so i got it fxied this morning. turns
out my procurve was having a bitch of a time autonegotiating with the
integrator, so i just locked down the black pr0t of the vpn and bypassed
the switch entirely. smooth sailing folk'lls ill bust int othe 4km later
and switch thte pr0t type, but for now that'll do donkey, that'll do.
i forgoto to charge camera so itll be a couple of days, but im plannign
on uploading pics of 5 or more paintings. and the latest piece im wokring
on (was gonna be 20 but i nixed 5 of em) installation piece. steph came

nov 15th
so ive started teh scan of pages, its gonna be a rad animation when done.

him tell you otherwise.
nov 14th

nov 13th
drawing crit went well. i think people were into my small bible book.
i need to start scanning it so i can take it to the next part of the piece
(animation of the evolution of the drawings within it) traded 2x30gb ata100
7200rpm (300bb/32aua's) for 1 ibm deskstar (60gxp not 75 :)) 61gb... now
i need to find someone who wants to trade a couple of 30's or 40's or
the 60 for a WD 100gb drive (mebbe one with the new 8mb cache hint hint)
i could see myself trading 110gb's or 120gb's for one 100gb. i did a lot
of work if anyone needs 3x30gb WD's all with same specs model and sub-revision
for a RAID setup lemme know. but im thinking of trading off all 3 30gb'
and mebbe 1 40gb or the 60gb. end result me == 100gb or more on one drive.
so i have a quiet pc now. i was O/C'ing for awhile, then i just dropped
a diff mobo in here (intel eea2) so it dont require much, so when i was
drive tinkiering last night i noticed that even though i had only ONE
80mm in my machine it was making the majority of the noise. since ive
stopped o/c'ing my gf2mx i disaabled that fan as well, replaced the 1
80mm todaya and now its all 386ey quiet. i lub it so far. i can still
here pitch from the 2 7200's i left in there but damn.
nov 12th
went to bed at 10:30 last night, fumes had knocked me for a big loop.
today my eyes hurt and i am still kinda off balance. work told me to invent
a expense sheet for hte last 6months so i get some $$$ from nowhere (personal
cell usage)
nov 11th
steph left mid-day then i went into the studio. painted and got a lot
done, but forogt to wear breathey mask so it fucked me up. didnt realize
i was loopy until i got out of my car and was tumbling over myself. didnt
have any balance all night
nov 10th
steph came over and we went to la vera's i wanted to go to nergri's but
with teh storm that would have been a Bad Idea (tm). then we watched shrek,
it was rpetty funny. pthree over and out
nov 9th

or more. im selling it and getting my truck.
nov 8th
yeah. i have a headache right now, bgut i also have a venti triple mocha
so feh. been drawing in my little sketchbook somemore. some recent graduates
of bay area institues were here for their gallery openeing today. we talked
with them. the consensus is dont go to masters school until yoiure a bit
older. so if i decide to go back to school that will be ok. apparently
if you do your masters at UC's you can pretty much doi them for free.
we'll see. god art sucks so much dick. me =ekls tired fo art atm.
nov 7th
got my t1 today, my procurve was being funny so i couldnt make one of
the prots an uplink, so i was making a pass through crossover cable with
coupler, but that didnt pan out. i finally got it working htough so that
is good. (atg's little access panel box was broke but i bypassed it) so
yeah. bad day. everything bad. wanted to roll outmy jobsites, but ended
up, everything else broke so i worked for 11hrs.
nov 6th
ok i was axed aboutpeople who read this. and i know people do read this,
but i never bothered with my access logs. so i lookey-loo'd tonight and
ive got a fuck of a lot of hits/impressions. so how about if you are reading
this you send me one email. you dont have to even write anything, just
click here and
send me a heartbeat. yes im talking to you sephiroth.rtp.epa.gov or u
ucsc.dhcp.
had theory crit today. so do you think web journals are art? submitted
from the 25th-5th for a conceptualism /minimalism piece, cataloging some
amount of time (as you see here) several people seemed to be in awe (but
these are non-tech ppl) none of them had never heard of web journals.
is this the new movement? webcamwhores and journal sluts? so one guy even
thoguht i had invented it, fakey style. fucker oh well. i didnt give out
hte addy cause i want this to stay as whatever as it has been. they were
up on the slang, and speech patterns and banality of it. so if they are
even a little bit SMRT they'll finger it out and find this place i call
hme, if not then woopie, either way im not affected. i handed out to each
of them this 5 pg document of the concept and time spent. and items produced.
ths was wat the botton (for the 13 day span) oh yeah. mebbbe all you l337

art = 4hrs
me = 4hrs
work = 7.5hrs
t1 will be installed on the 7th, also i have a meeting around 1 to go
down to our printer's office and figure out how we can get our color's
calibrated. wasted that $1300 cause the tilt up color was absolutely wrong,
even though someone had signed offf on the proof. i can photoshop that
fucker till im blue in the face, but if they arent even going to compare
my proof to their's then what's the point. drew at work today. i never
draw at work. soemthing is going on.
nov 4th
art = 5hrs
me = 9hrs
woke up feeling a might bit better. fucked around and drew for awhile,
then decided i needed to get into the studio. was gogin to pik up some
panels to stretch canvas over but wasnt feeling motivated enough to get
artsy. got into studio and they had taken out this mother fucking large
ass green machine form teh printshop.. we are getting our new press next
week, so they are making room. drew for a couple of hours, covered up
an area on one of my canvas's. decided i wasnt being productive enough
to be wasting an otherwise good weekend so i went home, drew in little
book somemore with micron. its line is a bit more furrier than the rapidograph,
i still prefer the crow or hawk quills to either though.
nov 3rd
art = 2hrs
me = 16hrs
went to utrecht and spent bank. got me a new pocketable sketch book,
a new rapidograph another bottle of rapidogrpah ink, a new micron pen
and a badass MAGNUM 44 PH34R MY L337N355. w00t w00t . its hard to draw
in a car, but i have a bad need to draw lately. like getting-back-to-my-roots-drawing-cause-i-have-to
drawing. so i rendered out a little bit on my book. went to one of steph's
friends house for a BBQ. they watched football and drank, it wasnt my
scene. i wen tout to say hi tot he dog but it had escaped so we went looking
for it. it was a research dog that had had its voicebox removed. i was
in bad shape so we left. then i went home, i was suppposed to goto chris's
and solder some mod-chips into a coupla ps1's but i was too wiped and
it was like midnight already. not a good hand for surface-mount soldering.
nov 2nd
sickness wont go away.
nov 1st
yesterday i took a long long time to print somehing (1 large zinc + 17
small plates) and it failed, and i was so frustrated and sick i just left,
despite the crit being today. the crit went ok. i went to bed at 6p last
night and slept for more or less 13hrs~. im feeling better today. mark
and kurt pulled me aside and said i had talent and im lost and i need
to develop more and be more ambitious and stuff. so i should just stop
sleeping and spend all of my time in the studio.
oct 31st
hi. i am sick. very sick
oct 30th
a very revealing day. full of ego stroking and affirmation. im doing somehting
awful rad with my prints, lets eee if i can pull it off.
oct 29th
im not really sure. it was a day. rachel got on my ass for immature concept.
good for rachel i like hearing bad things about my work
oct 28th
woke up like we normally do on sundays, went and retrtuned some pants
i had bought that were too tapered, and returned my dvd player, it was
out of motherfucking warranty by 1 day. but i had that 4yr warranty thing
so it was all good. so i got real mad (first time steph had seen me mad)
and i only got half screwed by best buy. since i had gotten it open box
they wouldnt exchange it unless i payed the difference in price, finally
they offered me a replacement for half the difference and i made sure
i wasnt getting screwed (i can exchange in the future, warrranty transferred)
so i paid $55 and i have 2 remotes, 2 power cords and i get a free dvd.
we then went over to shogun for sushi but they dont open till 4:30 so
we cruised copperfields for awhile, went home then came back. had good
stuff. later on we got coffeess (2nd caffiene drink for me in a week)
and then went for awalk around my neighborhood. after that she was super
buzzed and ended up making me dance with her to her old fashioned music.
so we danced for abit but then she had to go home and do grades for her
class :(((
oct 27th
ok i wen tto the UCLA vs Stanford football game in palo alto, that was
loud and peopley. then we went to a party in vacaville for steph's fellow
teachers, then we drove over to rohnert park to one of my coworker's halloween
party. its weird seeing coworkers drunk + high. we dressed up as 50's
kids, totally looked the part got compliemnts and everything. i pompadoured
my hair iwhit tshirt with lucky strikes rolled ina sleeve, dark jeans
cuffed with white socks and slip on shoes. comb and switchblade in back
pocket. stpeh had tiny flat shoes with dark jeans rolled, white socks
an over sized mens white shirt sleeves rolled and my leather jacket and
a cutey red bandana in her pony tail. when we got to the second party
a bunch of the girls ahd dressed up as the pink ladies from grease so
it went well together.
oct 26th
u fucking bastiges. no t1, mother fucker didnt even call. GRR. got $1300
worth of mailers back form teh printshop, they all look like crap. i had
called to get the printshops color profile so that i could calibrate as
needed, mother fuckers didnt know what i was talkign about, so i sent
a long a color proof to my calibration, printed as a proof, as i wanted
them to output. so they have chaanged stock and printer. what we ended
up with looks like utter flaming crap. fucking ass-clowns, that and their
blackvalues always have a gloss finish whereas the rest of the spectrum
is matte. also anywhere ther is pure black you can see roller marks .
h8 them
went to a footabol game tongiht, i had quizno's for the first time, it
was cold as fuck in fairfield and super-ghetto.
oct 25th
my T1 should be in place tommorrow. todayi started 4 canvases. spraypaint
is so much better than oils. anywya i plan on doing 20-30 canvas's in
the next several weeks and putting up an installation for my crit. i dont
like how stagnant our fucky little art dept is, esp. the ghetto-ass painters.
last 1 was on a 8ft door, this'un so far is one 3 piddling 2'x3' and one
1.5'ish x 4'ish. i plan to vary it up a whole heck of a lot. i dunno if
you fools are familiar with mark ryden. this is gonna kinda be more twist,
mark rydenesque. i still havent foudn my voice but ill be damned if its
goign to look like the other badart coming out of ssu.
oct 24th
also shellac.
you go listen to shellac now.
oct 23rd
im fucking wasted, crit int theory today, piece didnt go oever too well,
they wanted me to DB/stat them to death, i wanted pretty. ok, for all
intents and purposes, i am god, as my first act of being your god i mandate
that you listen to a band called bright
eyes. theriouthly. only hide your pistol/length of rope/bottle of
pills etc. its some good good stuff sanchez.
ok, i was planning on goign to bed now, but im gonna go over to adam's
shop real quick. wanna hear somethign goofy? steph has a allergies, as
such she blows her nose. i had a dream that she was sniffling in her sleep
so i sat up, got her a tissue and went back to sleep. so when i woke up
this morn i had this tissue laying on my bedside stand and i couldnt remember
why for awhile.
oct 22nd
something im working on for theory tommorrow, pretty
cop-outty
but i like the ways they look. i think they get my message acrosst,
see if you can finger it out. if y'all even know me a little you prolly
get the concept.
so tommorrow is school: we are all fed up; shawn is bailing, going to
prague and chi-town art institute, wendy is out next semster like me,
jasper is ready to split for LA and jeremy is dropping out of BFA. frank
and molly are just toys.
oct 21st
got a late start on the day, rolled out of bed around 1 or 2 or so. i
tried my hand at cooking freezer hashbrowns in this pan, but the olive
oil didnt respond well and they started to stick and burn, so i moved
on to the next skillet, and proceeded to burn it too, finallyu steph got
them to cook up in a teflon. so 3 pans ekls hashbrowns. owe went to the
mall so i could pick up some cuff links for a shirt i had just bought
that i want to wear tommorrow.this one jewelry store guy completely fucking
trashed me, so we said fuck him and went and bought them at a diff store.
got them 50% off @ $120 so yay, i was hoping to spend less than $150.
steph wanted to pick something up for her mom (the previous mentioned
present was for her dad to give to her mom) so i suggested we drive back
to the city, so we spur-of-the-moment went back to the city and picked
up a scicilian ladle cozy-holder thing, then had dinner at volare's (voltare's?
(sp) ) good stuff, after that it was coffee and desserts at cafe grecco.i
had my first cafffeinated beverage this week. im doing acres better.
oct 20th
we got an early start on the day (for us ;) uNF uNF) and went to the city
to the academy of science. then we went over to norht beach and she picked
up an italian biscotti jar from biordi's. i bought some ricotta cheese
cake and cannoli for dessert later on at chris's house. we booked back
to SR after that and went over to chris and janay's for dinner. chris
had made some good lasagna, so we had that and a nice bottle of home-fermented
cabernet that he had recieved as a tip form one of his customers.later
that evening scott and sam came over, i had not seen them in a long while
so we had a good time just making conversation and so forth.
oct 19th
ok so that wasnt as wierd as it could have been. sara msg'd me this morning,
and we ended up having a pleasant conversation.i told her about how bad
i had been feeling and have felt, and the dreams and what not. shes made
some big life changes that i really should have seen coming. actually
i kinda already knew but she had denied it before... anyway so we arent
like we were before, but we are definitely better.:((
im such a bitch, i feel so frustrated with my art cause im not sad or
wierd anymore about things. i dont feel like i have anything to draw off
of, so i pull reponses form our tiny little community. ekls teh gheyz.
steph came over tonight, i cooked us some pizza, then we went and saw
"from hell" it was ok, not the best movie ive seen in awhile,
but better than some.
oct 18th
martin luther who? ;) bunch of dummies dont know their history. so 5 fucking
hours of crits today, shit on me thats a lot of sitting around and bullshitting.
molly did this weird ass performance art piece in theory, it was decent.
more life drawing in drawing. we had a gamongous lady modeling, she farted,
i missed it but it was big lauhs for others. ok i got home today and sara
had written a letter to my parents. i havent mentioned it, but since we
broke up ive been having these bad reoccuring cant get away from her dreams.
in fact i had one last night. i think its because i didnt get any kind
of closure, we broke up over the phone as she was 3ish hours away. we
were best friends before we got together, then we were togetherfor nigh
5 yrs, so its odd. i want to be friends with her i guess, no reason not
to be. its odd that she wrote my parents. thinking ahead, like in chess,
shes got to have known that iwould see it, is she trying to open the lines
of comms.? am i reading too much into it? i need to talk to kelila i think.
steph is all worried cause she thinks sara is coming back to get me (much
like these fucking dreams) but steph needn't worry im happier with her
than i ever was with sara. so steph if you are reading this cheer up sweety,
i dont knwo what sara is trying to pull but it t'aint gonna work.
oct 17th
i went to work, then went to 2 diff clients. $$+$$ got their shit all
fixed up, one of them was a call-pacbell-and-get-them-to-degay-the-lines
kind of trip so yay the other was a 15min hooking up ICS for a little
LAN of 2. bank. im starting to save my money hardcore, bouncing it all
to my credit union instead of stockpiling in checking. that way either
i have a safety cushion, downpaymnt on my truck, or money for an apt.
shawn put up his 95 floatin heads nailed to the art dept piece
oct 16th
crits in painting, my painting went over well i guess. mark brought up
somethign that i had discussed in private with jhim, so now i am known
as the abstract expressionist hata. nizza please yes i find abstract (objective
an nonobjective) to be lame, but damn the way he brough it up its like
i called them all pinners. so i stood my ground and tried to eloquently
describe why it didnt work for me. whatever, life drawing in regular drawing,
massive headache went home and crashed.
oct 15th
ok, wen tto work, worked, then went to school and spray painted the final
touches for 1.5hrs.. then went to a clients house and got his comptuers

$200, got it for $69. panasonic dvd-rv31. the only sucky thing aout it

alphanumeric order and no shuffle. but it waas supa cheap so im not complaining.
what else. oh yes, pulled my own cat5 into the studio :) school was charging
$600 so i did it for free whats more i "found" a key to the
rackmount casing :) ran my own line form the switchbox to our studio via
ducting, the switch shares our wall so no great length. what it does mean
is i can icq/aim/yim/msn/email and run a server form the studio, im building
that computer on sunday. i also dropped a spare laser printer in there
so we can do research whenever. its pretty fucking rad. i have a headache
right now and im starving, but im jazzed at my new rig. (new amp, rad

seemed to like her. we made new couple friends too yay us. saw the award
i had made for work (engraved in glass) it looks pretty good.
sept 1-7
ok sean has informed me that i have been "sean12779: and btw you
are slackin on web updates, lol" in true aollama style so here we
go:
i have 4 crits within the next 9 days, i got a wacom tablet, steph likes
her teaaching job and they are little liars and dopeheads. i got no sleep
and then i crash about once a week (ex. i went to bed at 6:30pm last night)
my hair is really long and curly, mostly hippyish. shit broke at work
and i fixed it. hmm, what else. oh yes we went to sausalito the other
day and had a nice little date, got fish and chips i gacked later at work
(at work till 11p on labour day) the other printing press broke at school
yesterday so we are downt oe this ancient tiny one. i think that is it
but i might remember more later. ive been busy and just basically living
at school.
august 31st
ok
august 30th
school today, finishing up one of 2 prints, started 1 of 4 large drawings
for adv drawing, talked with mark about my grad requirremnts, i have 6untis
left 1 adv studio course and 1 upper div art hist class. im really thinkign
about BFA. then i can get mfa and teah uni if i want.i love steph alot
so feeh on you . someone *cough* frank*cough* broke the giant press last
night. kurt was mad, they may have to replace it ($15k) i went and talked
to paul in IT about gettings some cat5 strung intot he studio so wii could
set up a webcam there . it costs $600 to get new cat5 pulled. that is
such bullshit. so he suggested having one of the prof\'s request it so
we can get eh school to subsidize it. shot the shit with him for awhile.
asked if we could get sshkeys to be user writable so i can fucking ssh
from school to my server. sounds like a possiblity soon, i guess they
are using all iis now but swtiching to unix soon. someone needs to telll
them that both can be unsecure, its jus the level of admin. so if by switching
to unix they think they are making their job easier they are going to
be in a world of hurt. you can already su blank form teh liberry now.
dunno, theyll figger it out.
august 29th
worked, went to sheraton jobsite, upgraded filemaker pro 5 to filemaker
pro server 5.5 didnt relaly make a big performance increase so i set up
performance monitors to see what was goign on. it did make a bigt difference
in the field though so go figure. ranc0r says to drop all the clients
down to 10mbps HDX (they are 100fdx now) which makes sense
august 28th
had school till 7, couldnt drag my ass back into the printshop so i went
home, and i went to bed at 8:30. i got my own set of keys to the print
studio so i can come and go as i please (iu also have my own private studio)

the presenation package i had put together, so lets see if they remember
that later.

dead air later there was a nother half hour of video. i got it all worked
otu eventually but i had my desk all funky pr0n looking. dv cam, laptop,
oodles of wires, production style vcr, small tv/monitor, studio headphones.
it was funny shit. saw a car flipped completley over today too. whee
august 9th
went and saw steph last night after work, we had a hard time finding a
restaurant open at 9:30 but eventually landed at
IHOP :/ there wwere like umpteen trillion 15-18yrolds in this large
party there. steph is about to be a subsititute teacher for 2 classes
at vaca-high school. so last night was a little preview. boss charged
me with the duty of dumping video from a dvcam today. has to be done by
tommorrow. i have plans tonight so im scramblin tyring to get it. went
out and got a 1394 cable (4p-4p 6') come back here to find out that i
dont have premiere6 local like i thought. so im gonna have to grab it
tommorrow. the problem is file sizes are max 2gb, dv is 2gb per 7minutes
:) and i have what i think is a half hour to transfer. gonna go to dinner
and a movie tonight i think. hopefully i get some sleep topo.
august 8th
my hp surestore 5ki (2/4gb dds/dat) died today so i stayed till 7:30/7:45.

up.
august 7th
just got back form the funeral. my dad is driving. he notcies that i am
updating webpage so he is givign me a play by play. i dont look forward
to the services for my parents. the son of my great uncle had to speak
today. hopefully i have a long long time before i need to worry about
that. anyway, we're on our way back to SR and im gonna head over to vacaville
tonight, steph's parents are in mendocino. the suck part of that is gotta
be at work in petaluma at 8, so i have to leave her house by like 6:30
or so. oh well, such is the price of love.
august 6th
secretaried today. long day. drove up to ferndale for funeral on tues.
long damn day. so cause i aint got no LD or roaming charges on my celll
i spent most of my awake time up here on the phone. talked to sean and
hes gonna come down next weekend. hopefully we'll have some parts for
him so we can upgrade his computer to a 1ghz or so tbird on a abit with

for a few hours on my fav serve, 7bits
august 4th
woke up early with steph, then went to starbucks and drove back home.
had a client-call @ 10:30 so i go there and it turns out htey have just
made their default start/home page the default page for whne you enter
a url that isnt resolving per dns. i.e. "the page yoiua re looking
for cannot be found" so i changed it back to a real webpage.. it
was funny too, cause i spent like 5 mins making sure they had a gateway/dhcp
license and making sure they existed as a node. anyway they insisted on
paying for a full hour which is good for me. steph and i were supposed
to goto a partyu tonight, but it was canceled so we stayed home and had
some fun.

for the second laptop so i am sending it back. the printers were free
though so sucks to them. i was a secretary today i guess i did a good
job i stayed busy all day and helped ppl out and shit. once school starts
back up the normal secretary will go back to full time (she is taking
time off of rkids so i am takign ovver on mondays and fridays) i sure

shawn's words of wisdom for me "you really
should be more carefull... big trucks are just as dangerious as forigners...
fool... now you got a girl and stuff, got to chill out on the death wish
shit a little... ha..." id still take a big truck over a foreigner
any day. at least the big diesel trucks smell better. but shawn
makes a good point, so from here on out im goign to make a serious attempt
to at least stay near the speed limit.

i got 2 job offers yesterday. one of them (the new client) was asking
about me working for someone else.. and he asked me if i am happy at midstate.
i am happy at midstate,
i love my job. so i puffed my chest and said "yeah they take care
of me new office blah blah blah gonna build a new one too". today
i asked if they had the construction crew out yet to check the integrity
of wher ethey were talking about building. one of my bosses straight up
laughed in my face. that kinda set me "off" the rest of the
day. they changed providers
so i wont be getting my other cell phone for a little bit either. i turned
in my laptop proposals today too, cross your finkers that i get the i8k
1ghz cpu, 256mb's,
20gbs,

know how it worked so meh, whatever. Without a laptop(my best tool in
the field) i am pretty much stuck. i ended up using my carputer
to fix up this guys computer.. it was a pretty funny sight. his hdd in
my trunk, a cd in my dash and the monitor in the back seat, all running.
steph came here, we went and saw AI with chris, janay, josh, sam and scott
it was something. dunno what though. it had robots, and computers. no
monkeys midgets or candy though.
june 29th
soooooo booooooreeeed. nothing to do, cause i cant go out in the field
without a laptop to test with.
june 28th
when girlies see your pee pee they go hee hee. im bored. i cant get ahold
of the previous owner of my laptop so i cant get it repaired (yet). dell
i8k come home babby. !sknits arak *update

'95. going to steph's house ofr dinner tommorrow night, wish me luck with
her parents.
june 26th
slept in all nice today, then we showered and took off for several errands
then to the beach for clam chowder. ended up getting calamari too. was
reeal overcast and windy so it was ok, just ended up taking off driving
through teh coast and redwoods. dad found a cockatiel and brought it home.
the thing is so cute, its all nice and gives kisses and falls asleep all
the time. it seems pretty young, definitly not as mangy as the one that
i found. neensy wants to keep it, but who knows.. she has to pay a pet
deposit at her new place if she does. might be getting a 2nd job. stay
tuned pthreeketeers
june 25th
work is either going to fix my laptop, or buy me a new one. joyous fuckign
day lemme tell ya. i got more ram today, 512mb's in this box, all micron,
1/2 crucial, 1/2 pc133cl2, 1/2 pc100cl2. fuckin a. need to get HPT366
and ata66/w2kp all working nicely, so that i can really take advantage
of this ram. steph is coming over tonight and i took tommorrow off, cause
shes got the day off, we gon' have fun, sho' nuff... that is if it stops
rainging and being murky tommorrow.
june 24th
watched movies and did not a damn thing today. tooo lazy i need to get
my ass back in the studio. cleaned my room all up, vacuumed, warshed everything,
im gearing up to do my big move-out sweep of the room, its an everything
must go event. only problem is i dont know where im gonna be going. i
can pay about $600/mth rent after all other bills for my half, but realisticaly
if i dont want to live super scary close to the bone i should only pay
like $4-500. it dont look like shawn and i are going to find a place like
that. little baby jesus is crying for me i assure
june 23rd
went to steph's place later last night... we had a nice night and a good
morning. went to some little coffee house breakfast place and had a big
ol' breakfast. good stuff. she got her haircut which added at least 19.31%
more hottieness. went to sadie's grad party today pretty cool. watched
o brother where art thou. oh, fucked up big with steph's parents, might
be awhile till i can go over there again ;)
june 22nd
i have a walkthrough at an apt complex @1:30 wish me luck, she seems nice
and lenient. *update the apt is iffy, bigger bedroom is a loft, although
it is a floor to itself, and the place is a condo (1ft thick walls) and
each room has its own bathroom. the place is also within biking distance
of school. i would be in a room with no walls or a door so essentially
im paying $600 for a floor and a ceiling. as hectic as next semesters's
schedule will be (4 adv studio classes + gallery work and regular work)
ill prolly be too tired to care. shawn is looking at it tommorrow, if
its really sucky after 6mos we could always move. oh yeah, 2 new doodles
june 21st
lazy damn day didnt do much of nothin' mebbe drummed up some new business,
got a haircut, bought some pyjamas for steph. the haircut place relaly
sucks now, haircuts went up another $2 to $16 now, and the service is
even worse... this is by far the worst haircut ive had in awhile.
june15th-20th
nothing eventful happened that i can think of. aside from EVERYONE OF
MY COMPUTERS TAKING A CRAP WITHIN 12HRS OF ONE ANOTHER. got my ticket
in the mail, $134. worked and was sick, some kind of terrible gut thing
that im still kinda dealing with. its just been hot, lame hot. got my
table last friday, it is rad, exactly what i was looking for. HPT366,
w2k and 20gb+ drives do not mix, so im kinda fucked for a good main system.
thinking about upgrading to a 1.2ghz+ tbird on a iwill raid+ddr board
(120gb of raid goodness). oh goody, the FAT table on one of my 30gb'ers
just went out. anyone want to buy a slightly used 800-960mhz p3 w/ 385-512mb's,
120gb's of ata100 on an abit be6? sblive digital, 3com 3c905c-txnm, 52x
cdrom 100mb internal ide zip drive. posts at 1036mhz, runs @ 960mhz, stable
@ 916mhz. blue neon and 4x80mm's, 1x120mm included.

got kicked out of my office, they are moving me, they are moving me into
the supply room, they moved all of the supplies out so i have a little

to build it for me.
june 6th
lazy day today, no work or school. got called umpteen jillion times this
morning. all the computers wanted to break on my day off but its cool,
nothing i had to go anywhere for. had lunch with steph at school, went
home and tried to watch tv, that didnt work out and i ended up working
on logos for business's's. we
went to wednesday
night market tonight and got gyros.
i didnt even freak out to bad in the crowd. i didnt realize i hadnt paid
for my gyro until like 2hrs later when we were getting malts
and floats
at foster's freeze. lucky me im a cheater
monkey.
june 5th
went to work, standard stuff, then after work steph and i had dinner then
went to screamin'
mimi's for ice cream. after that we went to the beach and watched
the sunset. drove down 1 and took bodega

then back to SR and had a good nights sleep.
june 4th
great day today, took car into mechanic this morning, turns out nothing
was really wrong, so 2 belts, some clean posts and $78.80 later and i
got a happy car. my mom bought a '01 toyota camry today its a sweet ride.
work was good, steph is in town and i visited her at her work then went
home. i had to bike from my house over to n. dutton-y area to get car.
we had pizza tonight then went to treehorn books where i got the little
nemo book ive wanted to mimic some style from (biter i know). i have two
big ol' zits on my neck. i look like frankenstein. im not sweating it
though, life is way too good right now to worry over 2 zits.
may30th - june3rd
just been moving steph out of her place, last night got super
drunk with shawn, ended up puking a lot (i know big surprise) went
and saw moulin rouge
t'other day, pretty rad movie. afterwards adam kendra and kevin came over,
they were acting all weird or something i dunno, figure it was prolly
just kendra. my car died again, i fixed it again but im going to go to
a mechanic tommorrow to get it figgered out straight so i dont have to
keep having a dead
car every month. had a lazy day today, now that im back in my house
and am not at school 24/7 ive cleaned up a bit. im going to start doing
a final cleaning, shawn and i are going to try to get a place in RP
tommorrow (for when he gets back from europe)
mostly everything of mine im tossing so if anyone needs a bunch of p75
and up mobo's and cpu's and other misc hardware lemme
know. here is me, im a fatty.
may 29th
uploaded some doodles gonna upload 3 paintings
in a minute. today was so hot and i spend like all day on the 101. i put
a lot of activity on my card over the weekend buying work stuff and whatnot,
so i blew through all my money, even though i depositied like $700 between
atm deposit yesterday and regular deposit today. the way they were esplaining
it it sounded like i had no cash, but then they figured out that they
did something wrong, so i can now go see pearl harbour tonight :) it was
just kinda freaky cause my card was declined when i tried to buy a candy
bar, a soda and a pack of gum.
had a dentist appointment today, id broken off some corners on 2 of my
teeth, but they patched me up in no time. my arms are sore from lifting
furniture and im hot and complainy.
may 28th
spent the morning moving, then took care of a lot of chores. ive put 37K
miles on my car since i got it in april '99. got a haircut, my oil changed,
good thai food, and bleached my hair.
may 27th
washed clothes, yay me.
may 24th-26th
last final was on thurs, went great (crit in painting) ill upload pics
of it soon when i do doodles (already scanned).
went to steph's parents had some good dinner at a nice restaurant, went
well. nice folks. friday was a super productive day got all jobsites working
at once, with 0 errors and was able to produce a log that verified (yay
me). also set up auditing for all outside the office folk's so that i
can start generating reports showing usage and justification of the high
monthly access bills. went to kurt's place for american bbq portfolio
exchange. i got wiggy which is odd since i knew everyone there, i usually
only do that when i dont know anyone, or mostly everyone. so i was all
twitchy and quiet and just trying to get the fuck out of dodge. my painting
professor was there too and he mandated that i take 2 weeks of vacation
(he knows that i work too much). i think our print went over well, some
remarks were made by students and prof's that led us to believe we had
one of the top prints of the 15 there. i got my own kurt kemp print (of
18) which is actually kinda cool cause he shows places and is in the legion
of honour and stuff. went to graduation yesterday, then steph's place
in vacaville. didnt know anyone, but her dad and mom were cool and so
i didnt feel super out of place. other stuff happened in the last several
days but im forgetting it now. i havent been home in a week so im gonna
wash clothes and chill.
may 23rd
Shawn
and i are going to pull the prints today for american barbecue portfolio
swap. after that im going to vacaville with stephanie to meet her parents
and drop off things. wish me luck.
may 22nd
ok i didnt call the doctor, but i did start to clear up all my little
problems. i ate 3 times today! yay me. got sheraton, hotel healdsburg
and casa madrona jobsites all finally hooked up. as i was leaving the
sheraton jobsite, some dingus with a weedwhacker cut through the conduit
containing the pairs for the remote office's hunt group, killing all the
work that id done, but they repaired it.

along the piers and beach/store fronts in sausalito (sausalito is great)
then we went into SF and had ourselves an adventure. we went to north
beach to a little cafe, the palace of the legion of honour to see the
thinker and the fisherman's wharf thingy (we went into the ripley's museum
there). the night ended quite pleasantly moments ago. as it is now 3:36am

may 6th
read until 6am this morning, expected to sleep for a long while, but my
big jerk friend from NY
called cause the #channel was watching my webcam
and thought it might be funny to wake me. so i got 4.5hrs of sleep and
therefore felt like doing nothing today. went into school to paint but
was way to tired and hot to think about being productive. also nix'd plans
for going and seeing BFA
opening @ mills college. highlight of this day would be the 21"
monitor adam is giving me. viva
la adamo
may 5th
went into work around
4:30pm today, upgraded a bunch of computers and fixed the GODDAMN
SHIT ASS HELL VPN. i 0wnxx0red it hardc0re. now it works, correctly,
black interface mgr, w2k clients, you name it, hell ipsec/ike even works.
so i am god rawr. im gonna laugh at the guy
who config'd it originally if i ever see him again. static ip's to access
DHCP/WINS info? puh-lease luser.
no shit it couldnt bind anything. that concludes nigh 2years of supporting
a bullshit config, it only took massive breakage to correct. domino's
delivers(tm) to work, which is good to know, now i never have to leave.
wow how lame am i? excited about working till 1am on a weekend night.
hmm
may 4th
car just about died today, i guess my
alternator belt was too tight or something... i was going to replace it
and backed the adjusting rod all the way off of the tension wheel, but
it was stuck, so put everything back and it was fixed! damn thing hasnt
been quite right since i got my alternator replaced in november. so its
friday evening, i decided not to go back to work tonight i think. trying
to ween myself off of
working so damn much. need to paint tonight.
im so fucking tired
may3rd
this art thing was at school. got drunker than i have ever been before.
ended up in the bushes with these 3 hippy
chicks, then later on in the night i was making out with some 30yr
old. i dont remember how i got there i remember wandering away i think.
neither of my pieces got in the show. whacked my head real hard, monkey
climbed up a tree other stuff happened but i dont really remember. if
that 30yr old starts shit, im calling man-rape on her, if any guy had
tried that shit our collective asses would have been PC jailed faster
than shit
may 2nd
yesterday felt like an everything go wrong kinda day. intermediate portfolio
review occured, only i misunderstood and thought the works were to be
evaluated today so i only had several pieces to show. was told that i
did very good though which is heartening. so im at the big decision of
etching or painting
for next semester. dunno. registered today too. submitted second piece
for student art show today, i will
find out if either got accepted tommorrow... one piece was a 9"x12"
study of a bottle (oils) t'other 2"x7.75" etching. feelin'
ugh but what else is new

over it.
