saturday

woke really nicely, late (7:45), warm, felt great. took a long bath, reading a magazine. worked on a bit more patagonia drawing, answered emails. got several very weird & interesting emails in the last couple days. more on those as they pan out.

at 11:30 i went out to the art store to get a new sketchbook, and picked up a ticket for the 12:40 showing of 'cloverfield'. headed over to the food whole for orange juice, bread, goat cheese, and fruit. back to the theater to see the film.

amazing. really well thought out, really well put together. huge fucking monster. wow. some of the acting was a bit iffy, but forgivable. could totally justify seeing that again.

home, made a fire, really started in on pronghorn drawing. made headway.

around 8 or 9, hastie called me as i was leaving to see nonagon at the mutiny. then paul called, then robert, then tony, then paul again, until i stopped answering the phone. the poor subaru didn't want to leave the garage,but eventually grumped its way onto the streets and the highway, down to the mutiny.

what a fun time. i'm glad i went. not only did nonagon do really well despite the shit sound system, but it was fun hanging with john, paul, robert, tony, and jim. we were pushing each other, paul and i were trying to lift people into the ceiling tiles.

i took off soon after they played, and paul went with me to get donuts. something about nonagon makes me want to buy donuts. i get donuts after every show. dropped paul back at the mutiny, and took western all the way home.

into bed, read some of 'the stranger', slept great.
