Me, now.

This is who I am becoming.

Religion 101

This looks like a good book. I know I could use reading it.
Religious Literacy: What Every American Needs to Know - And Doesn't

In other news, I went to a Big Easy Rollergirls bout this past weekend. Good stuff.

Rib Update

Speaking of nice photos of Mobile scenes, the sign below is a good one.

Mobile in the NYT

Well I'll be. Mobile is in the Times today!
You Can Call It the Little Easy
How strange is that? It mentions Oakleigh, which is right next-door to where I live now.
Nice photos, too.

Back to Cali

So I'm California for a few days to recuperate from my recent struggles and help Cheryn move back to New Orleans. Things here in Santa Monica are glorious, as usual. I've been hanging out with several old friends, eating and drinking well, and breathing in the fragrant foliage and ocean air. One particular treat was yesterday, Esha and I went to Cafe Bolivar, a coffee shop/cafe I hadn't been to in almost 4 years, and right away this girl that works there came up to me and said "Hey, where've you been?" and "You got a haircut" as if I'd just been in here a month ago. Everybody was so nice and asking about me, and remembered my love for arepas. The nice girl, Norine, even encouraged me to come back in and they'd get me in the kitchen and teach me to make my own arepas, which I just did. I'm at the cafe enjoying them now! Another fun thing yesterday, Esha and I drove up the PCH to Paradise Cove. Neat place.

Here I am at the beach Thursday evening.


Here I am with the arepas I just made.
