Bye Bye 159

Well, 95% of my stuff is moved to my new digs over on 172nd st.My room is bigger and the neighbor hood is quieter .Hopefully I'll be able to snag a connection on someone's wireless network from there.If not, oh well , I guess I'll have less to distract me from work.I'm exhausted and will probably feel the effects of5 flights of stairs in every muscle tomorrow but I had no choice.
Life in the big city,eh?
One last night in my first place here.
I'll hit the library soon if necessary and post some pics of the new pad.

Not much

O.K. ,so some have commented on my lack of posting but to tell the truth there hasn't been much to report.
Creative Capital isn't accepting applications for grants this year and in the meantime I'm working my day job whenever I get the chance (not a lot) and studying up on Flash techniques trying to put some animated stuff together for a collaboration with my friend Beth.

this is Beth.
I've also been slowly making my way through some of the 5000 photographs I took over the holidays. I'll post soon though for a special day.

Holly Daze

Well, the parties have all died down and I get on a plane in 7 hrs. to head back Home.After spending two weeks in Memphis forr the holidays I'm exausted both mentally and physically. I'm dreading the flight but I extended my stay a few days and could only get a flight back with a layover in Detroit , so its the price to be paid ( that and $70).
I also had a major pain in the ass with my bank which, if i had not stayed, would have been all but impossible to deal with from New york. So, as always , every thing worked out .Stay tuned for pix and stuff.
Blessed Be
