oh-nine

well...let's see. 2009.


well, i spent the first three months homeless and on the lam. then i got an apartment and was still on the lam, but i was working 50-60 hours a week. then i went to jail for 46 days. then i got out but was placed on (and still on) EMD (ankle bracelet), as a result, i can only work my scheduled hours, so i make about 40% less than before, and have been struggling financially as well. i suppose with all that i could say the year pretty much sucked.

on the other hand....through everything shitty that happened, i found that i have the most amazing, awesome friends that anyone could ask for, even my "casual acquaintances" are awesome. because of you folks, i have been able to maintain a positive attitude through all of this, and live as fully as possible, despite everything. I have also made some great new friends this year.

i moved into a great place, probably the most awesome place i've ever had, with the best roomate i've ever had. I went back to my job at The Hideaway - as a full time guy, rather than just a few nights a week guy, where i get to be as creative as i want, and make really awesome food.

2009 has also been my most productive year artistically, ever. by my count, i have completed some 30 paintings. had a show where i sold several, and have sold a few others, including the largest, priciest piece i have ever sold.

and the bengals are actually good this year. and the bearcats.






I'm not going to play this one in a minor key...
