i saw the sky from the street, flashed up in font of my face and then i saw the fucking pavement really fast, and then i looked at my left hand on the dirty layered ice and said thanks hand, you saved me again. and then i laughed outloud cause i always fall but never break. then i saw that the old man across the way saw it all.

i also saw my other neigbor/business partner on antique roadshow (again)

i saw my parents burn up their nervous energy and completely dissolve with two mimosas each quickly followed by many slices of quiche lorraine and a fruit salad with cantaloupe, strawberry, blueberry, and mint leaves. then my dad went to go play golf at coronado and my mom's face exploded when my my neighbor shot this snake with a bb gun.

today i went to the knoxville museum of art and i took a weird way home. i went past this alley where a homeless guy was reclining against a building. he was reading a magazine and i slowed down to see what it was. it was penthouse. now seeing a homeless dude reading porn on the street is not that awesome but next to him there was a messy pile of like 35 other magazines! i felt really patriotic and really loved america and loved that homeless dude.

On my most recent trip to SFMOMA:

http://www.sfmoma.org/images/ma/exhib_detail/GRichte_Kerze.jpg
Gehrard Richter's Kerze was on display, first time I'd seen that! Turns out that it was a gift from the owner of my company which was even cooler.

Robert Gober's Forest Room Installation [interactive link]
Totally amazing forest room with "color-by-numbers" camouflage painted on the walls, apparently painted by local theater set designers based on slide projections of pictures taken from near the author's home.

seen ages ago now, but on the uptown 4/5 one morning i see this dude, average joe on the sorta goofy tip, talking to a large woman....i had headphones on and couldnt quite hear, but he seemed to say something like, "ill take care of you". this seemed odd, as they clearly just "met". then, as we get just about to GCT he hands her a business card.

the card has his name, number, and title: cunnilingus expert.

four months pass...

manhattan 4pm saturday: apparently a compact car made a quick right onto 68th from broadway and ran into a stopped moving van -- only the entire front end of the car fit snugly under the truck and the windshield is literally inches from the truckbed. a close call, the driver, a middle aged-woman, shakes and cries as she stands talking to the cops. I watch for a minute and then continued walking. two women next to me:

#2: she damn lucky
