Damn good.

So after going through a battle with the sinus infection and flu bugs last week, the weekend was a great relief. Saturday I spent most of the day working on my music, and took a break in between to scout out photo locations for the Machete work. I didn't take many photos because I was more interested in picking through all the cool things left on the site, but here are a few token items that caught my interest:





Yep, that's right. Windows, dirt and grass. Gotta love it. Well that and watching the pigeons dive bomb from the remnants of all the graffiti laden brick walls....

Then Travis and I decided that since I was feeling better, we should celebrate with a late afternoon picnic in the park complete with wine, goat cheese (!!), olives and a CREAM FILLED COOKIE from the co-op next door. It was amazing, until a wandering puppy caught me off guard and stole the rest of the cheese!


One of the most entertaining spectacles was a man teaching his daughter how to shoot off a rocket. Only in Atlanta!



The sky was really beautiful too...

















I like taking pictures of people who don't like having their pictures taken...

And then we completed the wonderful day with a 'dinner date' at Desi Spice-one of our favorite spots to eat delicious Indian food. This is us being excited in the car on the way there:

So that was Saturday, and then I spent most of the day on Sunday recording with my friend, Jim Combs. He's offered to help me record my first album and I can be nothing but excited about that! We talked over my songs, and had an interesting coversation concerning my music and its visual connotations. I can't really describe it, but afterwards I felt as if something had clicked into place-or that I'd reached an understanding of this art that I've been producing for many years...

This week has been busy....we had a late night lecture at work, I had a late night hang out with friends last night (we watched the eclipse), and I've been slaving away at organizing my visual art documentation. I have an interview at Whitespace Gallery this Saturday too... Yikes. So much going on all the time. I wonder what I would be doing with my free time if it weren't consumed by art and music? What do 'normal' people do after work anyways?! I'm baffled by the thought of living without a constant 'art' agenda...I just don't think I could ever be satisfied by stillness.
