some greek for ya.

i've been meaning to share these with everyone but i never got around to it.

go figure, right?

i recently went to a greek restaurant named papa cristo's in my neighborhood.

the place has been around for a while--it's a little deli/store/bakery plus eatery

and in all my life i've never enjoyed the food there, with the exception of their superb baguettes.

so, we kind of had a double-lunch-date to try the place out.

boone gallery blues.

it's not really the blues, but it sounds cool to say.

i'm a gallery facilitator here at the boone gallery, over at lacma.

sometimes it gets really dull, a little too familiar, routine.

but the people i work with make it really fun to spend inside the dim-lit place.

here's a little peek into the things i see at work.

just outside, these conservationists work on a 900(?) year old korean buddhist monk painting.

happiness.

it is an abstract thing. happiness is unattached. always the same. it does not appear and disappear. it is not sometimes more and sometimes less. it is our awareness of happiness that goes up and down. happiness is our real condition. it is reality. it is life.

Write a chorus about loving your significant other enough to compromise yourself.

Hannah:

         Unfortunately, I was unable to do this one. Lyricism is definitely not my area of strength.

Jonathan:

Oh, you’re bitter you’re sweet

Bb        F         Gm               Cm

wake up, wake up, wake up

it's the first of the mooooooooonth.

if i were still a lover of mary-jane, i'd light one up and indulge in mean munchies.

but my pothead days have been long since over and i started this morning off with some spitalfield.

complete opposite ends of the music spectrum, i know.

you all should know by now that my music range is as wide as yo momma's hips.

anywho.
