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

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

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 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 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

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

march 12th

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 shell book. w00t. free oreiily's

feb 23rd
ok backed up all the data off of file/app server going to replace its 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: 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

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. and so on. i saw you just hte other night.

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

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 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

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.

(and smiley) i have 30days to sell my 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 in. also it could prolly use a new set of passenger shocks (not very expensive) 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.

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 of may. durh me, dept head says its ok and not a propblem and theyll get it fixed but heres hoping anyway. i have to tkae pics of my latest painting and scan in my latest state of my plate. i should also upload hte PPT doc of the book animation.

dec 3rd
im tired but i got good work done. another state in book proofed my plate again and added in the res tof hte figures. printed it rembrandt style in teh nitric, 30secs-5mins all consecutive to give atmospheric perspective. soon ill add in the rest of the plate. im thinking about droppin irq's scene in. also started new painting. god i loath paitning its all rectangular and boring. well hopefully it turns out. lee gave me tips on thigs for stephs bday/xmas. it gonna be coo. jasper rumour was nothing. stuff taken out of context so good. we drew on all the posters again, 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

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

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

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 over tonight.

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

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 mother fuckers are the Next Big Thing in the art world. BLOGGER IN THE GALLERY, LIVEJOURNAL IN THE PRIVATE COLLECTION. guffaw. bend over assclowns, art is life. im goign to start doing this time thing though at the top. a=hrs m=hrs w=hrs. just real quick like that.

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.

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

(new amp, rad vcr, rad dvd etc.) ok late.

sept 15th-sept 22nd

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

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.

july 3rd
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, 32mb nvidia geforce2go. im closer to getting my t1/t3 in the office, got another bid coming in then its meeting time. no word from shawn yet. changed his email addy too, email him @ boxx@diversionmary.com LASTLY BUT NOT LEASTLY PLEASE TO GIVE OPINIONS ON THIS: **NEW PAGE LAYOUT AND SCHEMA** email comments

june 30th
client call today, got paid 1/2 what i was supposed to, but the guy didnt 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 dinner went great, as if nothing had happened so im all good. steph wasnt feeling well.

june 27th
hi. so it looks like i will be getting that 2nd job and working with adam. uploaded 2 new doodles, these i drew in '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.

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

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.

may 21st
im gonna call the doctor tommorrow. ive lost a shitload of weight (size 28 jeans now) i barely eat, and then only once a day, and im not hardly sleeping at all.

may 20th

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
