tuesdays with willster
sneakyvonsneakster: I try to post daily - but sometimes I don't post till I get home from being out so I sneak it in by making it 11:59... ok, here we go...Today was a great day! I got up and headed downtown - something I haven't done in a long time! I had to go pick up some photos for a web project (actually mentoring a high school student, whose a BAM member and aspiring web designer). After finishing that up I headed over to see the wall painting in a children's store in the Embarcadero. (It's owned by the same people I spoke to on Saturday about doing a wall painting at their new store opening in Marin.) It was cool to see how this one was done - it's a totally different style, but the application of it was a clever idea I might try.
Then while downtown I headed over to visit my friend David, who works at Military.com a couple days a week. I got the full tour of the .com (one of the last around, AND they make money! whoa!). It was fun to see an office that still had it good like the ol' days. Slats of all different kinds of pop & juice - free food - and stuff everywhere like they're just so damn busy they haven't had time to organize it all better.
After pickin up a kickin burrito at El Faro for lunch, I finally came back home to chat w/ a few clients and take care of some business. Oh - and Matt came over to see Kazoobie too! Kazoo was psyched cuz 'dad' brought him some yuuuummy treats, a new mouse and kitty grass! wahoo! (or should I say, purrr)
Tonite Rick & I hit The Raveonettes show. Kittens for Christian opened - and Stellastar played between the two (whom we agreed probably took the cake out of the night actually). Raveonettes were good - didn't rock our socks off, just ok.. but good (not sure I'd need to see them live again anytime soon, but it was entertaining.) Stellastar's lead had a cool voice (almost Robert Smith meets David Byrne) - and they had a cool sound... total rockstar drummer that was actually pretty hot with his slick boy bare chest and sunglasses on. Very fun.
p.s. my cat just did the most hilarious thing: rarely do I see him use his litter box, since it's in the bathroom behind the door (and actually this calls for a little more set up, so I'll tell you it's not only behind the door, but it's squeezed in this convenient little space between the wall & my clawfoot tub) so tonite a little after I got home I had to pee really bad... well, apparently he did too cuz he came trotting in behind me and stepped into his litterbox. then - the funniest thing... after he was done peeing, he climbs out of the litterbox the other way, and crawls under the tub (clawfoot, remember) to come out the front again & then goes back to cover it up. quite the system he's got!
A'ight - gotta hit the hay now - tomorrow's a big day!! :)
