Ordinary Is Extraordinary...Friday edition...02/25/11

I caught a Saturday Night Fever last Saturday while watching/ dancing to Glass Candy, and I've been dancing around since, to Glass Candy, on my record player....

Me and John Waters....

Yes, that's me and John Waters. And yes, he signed my copy of Role Models, and yes, I recommend you read it.

But aside from being highly amused by every word that comes out of his mouth, his approach to film making, writing, and just being, he is one of MY role models, someone I aspire to be, because he's so fuckin' honest and genuine, and because he reminds you that all that glitters isn't as interesting as all that's covered in shit....

As I've been keeping a bit busy here at work, just a bit, here's a recap of my weekend and a bit of my work week...

Glass Candy at the Echoplex was awesome!!!!

I skipped to my car in the rain last Friday...

and yes, that's me sniffing my freshly sharpened pencil, yes, I get paid to draw...

So....last week was kind of exhausting, mostly emotional, and so I refrained from having cocktails with friends. But this week, well, I did some catching up; a late night stroll with a friend at a local bar, then at work the next day, because Fabian's the best!! Actually, the team here at Geyrhalter is the best! And one more for the road (oopsies, bad reference), dinner and a margarita shortly after the champagne...

Welcome to my work in a week....

Every so often I get this itch to take the scissors to my hair, like so...

and then I get lost in a book, recently- The Crying of Lot 49, by Thomas Pynchon- recommended by a friend...

and from 9-ish to 5-ish, I'm planted at a desk....

And yes, the sky was as grey as the background of these drawings....

So.....This is what my weekend looked like, and today is Valentine's Day, for all the lovebirds....

and these are the little things, strolling in the sun, kitty and cool pins....

So, I've been away for about a week.

This is why...

Death is inevitable, we're all aware of that, I think, but when it occurs to someone you love sooo much (my grandpa), it catches you off guard and takes the wind out of you, or me in this case, and kinda hurts too....
