I was indeed very happy to hear that you and Claire would be joining us! And simultaneously worried I didn't have enough food. I'm that guy that always overestimates (with the exception of penis size), and thankfully we had enough leftovers to feed 4 more people. Everyone had a go bag. The steaks were Flintstone size.

Here's hoping that the food coma didn't cominse until after you arrived home.

BTW, the above pic of the fishing vessel, is the very ship I crewed back in the early 90's.

Gathered grub to cook dinner at Dorothy's tonight. My landlord bought me a 4 pack of NY steaks for my Birthday, so Corrine, Dorothy and I will be having Steak, sautéed, multicolored baby potatoes, sautéed Brussels sprouts, sautéed mushrooms and a sourdough loaf. It's a sautéed evening I guess. Oh, the fourth steak will be divided unevenly between Walter and Maki, unless Dorothy has different ideas about that.

Some idea of the symbols I'd want, but would need to weave them in a cohesive manor. Where's Ed Wood when you really need him?

Nothing to do with what I did today, but thought this might be a good thread to gather ideas. I've been wanting to get an armband tattoo for a while now. I've thought about this for many years, and feel like I'm ready to pull the trigger. I'd like it to tell my life story. I'd of course like to represent my Carpentey career, I'd also like bring in my time commercial fishing in the Berring Sea. And lastly the fact that I'm a gay man. Nothing needs to be absolutely specific, and I'm not interested in having a big rainbow on my arm. Something more subtle about all three ideas. Oh, and possibly Suzy making an appearance. She will always be my special girl. I'm looking for ideas, possibly even some sketches to take to the tattoo artist. There are some very creative folks here, and I could use your help. I'm thinking midway up the arm, not a wrist band. Maybe 4" in overall width.

You forgot an image Brent... Happy Birthday Colin!

Just had a fantastic Birthday dinner at Rancho Nicasio with my four favorite people, Al, Claire, Dorothy and Corrine.

I'll be there before it's fully cool. Please set another place at the table.

Wait, what? That doesn't look like it's shaped like a vagina? I guess that's what "groovy" eludes to. Straight people and their subtleties, I just don't get it.

Got a Valentine's gift from a coworker. That's the nicest way I can think of to tell somebody to "eat a bag of dicks".

Does this also work on tape worms?

Oh, didn't know it was out. Will proceed forthwith. Thanks!

Actually yesterday, but visited the DeYoung Museum for the last day of the Tamara de Lempicka exhibit. Amazing work. These are just a few of the paintings exhibited...

I've been thinking about teaching myself to carve wood. Yesterday I decided to give it a go on an old cabinet. I do tend to get over ambitious. Did I go overboard?

Twas tongue tantalizing!

We don't see as much of you these days, but have a great Birthday!

Not only would I be happy to devour those, I'd be just as happy to mount them on my wall as art pieces. Is the small one, middle left, for Chloe the non-british cat?

^ Oh look, baby Redwoods. 😋 My trip to MOA 2 enamored me to Fairfax. I thought of it as an enchanted forrest village. Now that feeling is multiplied here in Nicasio. I halfway expect to see and hear the Seven Dwarves at any moment.

I just found out that Willie wrote and recorded this song himself in 2005.

Once again Willie says Fuck You to the Country Music Establishment. To be one of the biggest Country icons on the planet, and do a duet with Orville Peck would be considered career suicide for most. But Willie does what Willie wants to do! I never thought that I could gain even more respect for this man, but I just did. I can only imagine how many young gay men and boys this video will positively impact.

I think the real question is, can you use sawhorses as speaker stands?

Wait, I thought Battle of the Bulge was a gay dance off thing?

Have an incredible day Sir!
