Final words of tonight,
Everyday will be a new art project for me. I am determined to make this life nothing short of absolutely beautiful.
HOME!
Back at work. New (& improved) location. Lennon music blasting, my family’s on stage, the food is delicious, I love all my new co-workers, I feel SO alive, and I’ve got the greatest feeling that this is just the beginning of the new amazing life I’ve felt coming on for such a long time. I’m SO happy!!!!!! :D
Miracle
I just remembered the most beautiful thing my neighbor said last summer. We were laying on a blanket in the grass when he expressed, “The problem is, no one thinks anything is a miracle. They see a flower or a bird or themselves and it’s so familiar that they believe there’s nothing amazing about it. The truth is, though, that everything is a miracle. Everything is amazing....
I think being an artist means
constantly needing to create something, having that voice in your head that never shuts up or lets you rest for a second.
Your flaws are beautiful. They’re what make you stand out. Don’t try to be...

Stars
So today I magically assembled a recording studio in my room, complete with a tube preamp, a fancy looking mixing board, and a jungle of wires and cords. ”Alaska” is now recorded, and it sounds beautiful. In other news, I strung colorful paper stars everywhere this evening. My room looks like it’s decorated for a holiday that hasn’t been invented yet.

I stayed up just to wait for the rain. Aw, it’s finally here :) :)
"Rain" was played on KROQ again!
