friends in pixels…
Over the past month, I’ve been increasingly concerned about someone I consider a friend. I watched him grow from excited about his building and live music events to terribly bogged down by a gig that didn’t turn out to be what he wanted it to be. I’ve expressed that concern quite a lot in a protective fit because that’s who I am. If I am your friend, you know by now that I can be fiercely protective of those that I care about. I don’t care if you’re pixelated, it’s the person *behind* the pixels that keep me company, typing your words who is also my friend. Making me laugh and giving me hell when[.....]
Bananadu is an great success!
Okay seriously guys, what’s more fun than great 80s music, skating, dancing and disco? Nothing right? Good answer. Well, Los Arboles hosted Bananadu on Monday night (modeled after Xanadu the movie). Another amazing build by Banana. And the best thing? It brought together a somewhat fractured podcasting community. Everyone had a blast! I asked Crap Mariner to take some photos for me because I’ve been crashing lately when I take photos in lag. He kindly agreed and you can find some great shots here at his blog.

recent happenings…
So in recent weeks, writing here has just seemed to be overwhelming. Here are a few recent events…besides the one I just posted.

many thanks…
This is a very important entry for me to write and it’s taken time to get it just right, to say what I want and need to say to those involved in this effort. My grandmother is currently fighting against lung and pancreatic cancer. Relay for Life provided me with an opportunity to do something good and not feel so helpless while she fights for her life. It’s thanks to amazing effort that the fundraiser with Matthew Ebel in dedication to my grandmother was such a success, the generosity of the donations and the words touched my heart in a way that is profound and will stay with me for the rest of my life.[.....]
looks like I’ve been swept away…
