I had this dream last night, it was really weird. If anyone knows what it means please tell me:
My friend kyle and I were walking around denton over by hickory when I see Kim Johnson driving a cop car, dressed like a cop. I am confused, but still jump and wave at her to see what's going on. She stops the car and tells us to jump on in. I jump in the front and kyle gets in the back, where there is another girl I don't know. She starts driving over near the 7/11 on fry, and she sees another cop or something, which causes her to pull in to the right, back up across all lanes of traffic, and park in the abandoned fire stations little parking lot. We all get out, and her and her friend run inside. Kyle stays there to distract the cop, and I hit the road.
Next scene is in a Chilis or some sort of restaurant and everyone is looking gloomy, diagonally a few tables away from us sits Kim, I can't remember who all is sitting at our table. I complain about kyle staying there to get taken down by the cops. The dream becomes fuzzy after this.

I've decided I like school, and working, and the thoughts it gives. I haven't even started my break and I'm already getting bored. Shit.

There is a man. A certain man
and for the poor you may be sure that he'll do all he can.
who is this one, who's favourite son - just by his action has the traction magnets on the run?
who likes to smoke? enjoys a joke?
and wouldn't get a bit upset if he were really broke?
With wealth and fame he's still the same.
I'll bet you five you're not alive if you don't now his name.

Its better if you click on it to open the youtube page and go to "high quality"
Enjoy.

So, I've recently been asked to do some art for a band - all of whom are my friends. They want to use two pictures of my art and they want me to make a button specifically designed for them.

Now, I think I'm ok with letting them use my paintings for whatever they want, because that would be free publicity, right?
However, I'm wondering if I should charge something for the buttons... I don't know. What do you think?

If you read this alana, I know you did the picture stuff for sixtimesthemoon - what did you do for that?
I specifically say you, because to me you're the all knowing guru :P
I guess that's why I'm always asking you questions.

Anyone feel free to reply.

Max Ernst had his first contact with the world of sense on the 2nd April 1891 at 9:45 A.M., when he emerged from the egg which his mother had laid in an eagle's nest and which the bird had incubated for seven years.

Here's Entertainment Weekly's list of the top movies of the last 25 years. Go through their list and BOLD the ones you have seen, underline the ones you own on video or DVD, and italicize those you'd like to see someday.

I've come to terms with the fact that, it's not that I need caffeine
I really enjoy drinking coffee in the morning.
It's not just the taste, it's the smell. It's the act of making it.
Pouring, mixing it with 2 spoons of sugar.

A warm treat to start my day.


I'm also a tea man. And I know I can have tea in the mornings as a different warm drink.
But it's not the same. It doesn't have that creamy goodness.
and I can only drink so much chai tea before I get tired of the glass.

It seems I could drink coffee forever.
How I came to like this drink, I don't know.

But I no longer need it.
It's a wonderful treat for morning delights.
Or afternoon delights.
or whenever I'm feeling down delights.

I NEED to move into my apartment.
This room has no ventilation, which makes me want to die when I paint for more than two hours.

I've finished something. It's about time.

Eric Dyer.com has been updated too.

sometimes I'm not even sure what I'm doing right now

I'm actually getting things done...it's weird.

sometimes I have strong urges to go out of my mind.

I have seen too much
I haven't seen enough
You haven't seen it
I'll laugh until my head comes off
Women and children first
And children first

Idioteque always puts me in a mood mixed of nostalgic melancholy and joy.
The electronic beats and cold groves.

For those of you not subscribe to my Deviant Art the information on this painting is:
Oil on Masonite, 3'x2'
My distorted Brother.

Incidentally, this is my first work in oils so I'm asking for advanced critique on how I could improve (not proportionally / figure, but use of color, light, detail, etc)

Highly anticipating the Austin City Limits lineup being released tomorrow. I *really* hope I got my money's worth. I had a nightmare where it was Pearl Jam/Oasis.

Here's the current (unofficial) lineup
Tegan & Sara, Okkervil River, Man Man, Silversun Pickups, Cansei de Ser Sexy, NERD, Gnarls Barkley, Raconteurs, MGMT, Jamie Lidell, Eli Reed, Neko Case, Kate Nash, Hot Chip, Octopus Project, Del the Funky Homosapien, Heartless Bastards, Robert Earl Keen, Sharon Jones


..So I want to see a few bands so far, but none of those really sell me.
Man Man, Raconteurs (saw them already), octopus project


---the anticipation is killing me.
