Musical Mass Confusion Monday
I’m all over the place today; lots on my mind. The new roommate, Austin, was by this evening to pick up his key, pay the rent and begin moving his things. He said that he’d probably have to make 6 or 7 trips, though I think he was only here once. He said that he’d … Continue reading
A Movie and Some Music
After sneaking out off the office a little early yesterday, I dashed over to AMC Theaters to see “White House Down.” Why did I sneak out early?

Holy Smokes, Batman!
I forgot Musical Monday again, and it’s already Friday! Apparently, Motown night at The Dragon Upstairs got me all distracted. Therefore, as an ode to the songstress that didn’t know this song, I’m gonna’ put down a little Grace Jones for you peeps. I remember this as being quite popular in WeHo (LOL!) “Pull Up … Continue reading
