Waiting For The Codeine To Kick In
Been home from Dr. Pack’s office (40th & Lex, if you were wondering) for about an hour. Am drinking Sunny Delight. The top one came out easily (the intact one in the image), I could barely feel him tugging on it for a second then it just slipped out. But he had to really work…
Read MoreBlender Ready Food
Highlight of the day thus far? Getting a new cordless phone at Staples? Thuggin’ out at Foot Locker? Nah, for all the excitement the 34th Street mall provided, the real excitement was in the kitchen: homemade chicken soup, fruit smoothies — all blender ready food ready for my two extractions (read: teeth pulled) tomorrow morning.…

Excepting a long run along the river, and paging through the New York Times, this lazy Sunday was punctuated by Janet Jackson’s HBO performance. I’m not a fan, but friends had us over to watch, so we watched. What a spectacle. To her credit, she does actually sing a few numbers. But it’s just so…
Read MoreFar Enough Away
After assuring that all was well with the MTV News Weekend Edition, I seized the opportunity the good weather presented and rode my bike north along the river and out of the city. It was cloudy and cool, but the sun soon broke through, and by the time I was to the George Washington Bridge,…

What to say? Like that, it’s over. Valentine’s Day. The benefit show. Done, over. It’s the next morning — I broke my “daily journal” routine yesterday ‘cuz I was movin’ non-stop. So, here’s what happened, and how it felt… I was nausious all the way downtown. I always am. Rosa was setting up her drums…

I am bone tired. Been up late painting. Been putting in long hours at the MTV. Stayed late tonight to deal with the Waylon Jennings obituary. I made a great image of him in high-contrast black and white, holding his guitar, looking towards the sky. My father was a big fan, mostly of his stuff…
Read MoreEveryone’s Coming Of Age
I was completely rockin’ out like Jackson Pollack last night, painting and bouncing around my apartment to “For Nancy (‘Cuz It Already Is).” I got so excited with what I was doing, with all the ideas I had, the plans for an art show/performance, all thematically linked, that I couldn’t fall asleep. I’ve been wanting…
Read MoreNon-Stop Corporate Wanker
A non-stop corporate wanker day, excepting the 10 minutes I took to spam the mailing list about Thursday’s show, and the five minutes I spent reading E! Online’s gossip column. Looking forward to going home, playing guitar, painting and finishing “In Cold Blood.”
Read MoreCreature Of Habit
It’s raining outside. Sounds cool, soothing. A better day. Woke, dealt with laundry, went for a bike ride along the Hudson. Was gray and wintery, but so nice to be out, and look up the wide river. Back home, I let the adrenaline left over from dodging cabs on 10th Avenue motivate me to do…
Read MoreSay Anything
Night is falling on Hell’s Kitchen. It’s not been a day of terrific accomplishment. I didn’t make it to the army/navy store for pants, or Lee’s Art Supplies for blank canvas. I didn’t buy new socks, or get my laundry to the laundromat. I didn’t do anything, except a get a haircut, read a few…
