In some part of the world...
It’s time to get up and start the day. Yet, on my side of the world, it’s 5:29 and I’m working on a short paper and drawing. It’s pretty incredible being up so early when the world is still sleeping. Opening the window, sticking my face into the cold air and taking a deep breath. Good morning, World. I hope you’re ready for me…

Voting is sexy...
Reading is sexier. If you decide to vote, which I’m hoping many people do, there are tons of resources to help you decide. Yes, folks…you have to go out and look for the information but you may feel more engaged if you involve yourself!
Be proud...
To be an SF native, a bay area dweller, a SF Giants fan, lover of the city…but be safe, dear friends…
Good to be a San Francisco native!
Sitting home, relaxing, and watching the San Francisco Giants make history! I may love art, art history, and art making but I do love and appreciate watching a good game…

You know what?
You’re amazing. Sure, I don’t know you but if you’re reading this…think of that special person in your life. Now, think about them thinking of you. How sweet is it that you had a nice thought. Not only about them but about yourself. Circularity.

Undertow Lyrics
Your brown eyes are my blue skies. They light up the river that the birds fly over. Better not to quench your thirst. Better not to be the first one diving in, though you caught me and you know why you breathe in the deepest part of the water.
What’s the matter? You hurt yourself? Opened your eyes and there was someone else? Now i’ve got you in the undertow. Now i’ve got you in...
Sending messages to your loved ones...
Did that this morning and it made me feel a lot better. It’s amazing what words can do. Reciprocity too. How that ripples out into the universe…at least, I hope…

Sweet message from my niece...
I got one of the sweetest birthday messages from my niece over the weekend. I’m speculating she was happy to get my voicemail versus me answering because I may have subjected her to uncessary talk. I was away from the phone but would have totally picked it up. My assumption, more often than not, is that she’s busy with her friends and being a teenager. Not sure if my sister had...

Denver, I think I'll come back...
Although I don’t get a chance to travel much, the times I do, they’re for work purposes but always happy I’ve had the opportunity to see places I wouldn’t otherwise see. One of the unforgettable things about Denver, specifically, being in Englewood, are the bunnies hopping around the hotel. So small, so precious, and so very accustomed to people being that they hop freely....
