My girlfriend brought these flowers over for an Easter brunch we had at my apartment. I don’t have a vase, so we put them in my glass boot, which was a gift from my friends Anne and Andy. Typically it gets filled with beer, not flowers. When I saw it, It reminded me of how much I’ve slowed my drinking, and how much of a good thing that is.

We were really bored and just down right unenthusiastic about this. So boring.

My abilities don’t do her much justice. Never learned to make my lines perfect.

My friends are crafty.

Alexis. She speaks fluent sailor and has a heart of gold. Today’s her birthday.

It is a very good day.

Important ones.

Weekend Palette.

Never the place, always the people.

Duncan the navigator. George the poet. Drew the holiday. Ashley the dancer. Alexis the Sun. Jacquelynne the Italifornian. Colby the certain. Christina the welcoming. Mike the noble.

These are my friends. The kind that when asked to bring a chair to a party in my empty apartment, bring a couch.

I was about as low as hell, for a long time, before I met these people. I’m so lucky, and I know that well.

Can’t take credit for the idea. It was the one fond of bacon.

Made this for my friend Alexis and her new home. She’s awfully nice and fond of bacon.

One of my all-time favorite songs. Yeah, I know its a cover.

Take Me Home Country Roads by Toots & The Maytals.
