You Tube party at Steve's house

Neon down

This sparkplug just jumped out of the engine while I was driving and when I tried to put it back in, I found out that the place where it goes is stripped. Somehow I have to get this fixed and get the car back to Dad's house in DC in like two days.

The Art Museum with Mom

Mom is getting her roof redone

On the drive back to Richmond...

I always stop at Firehouse Subs when I go through Knoxville. They have Al Gore's hot sauce there.



They also have this mural, which is a work of artistic genius. The setting of the mountains makes sense - they are close to mountains in Knoxville. The firetruck makes sense because of the restaurant's name. Davy Crockett makes sense because of Tennessee history. Giving him a fire hose as a weapon makes sense in a cute way. Having a dog in the picture makes sense because of the firehouse thing (although shouldn't it be a dalmatian?) But Davy Crockett as a dog fighting a crocodile with a fire hose?! Genius.

EDIT: Nevermind, it's about football or something. This mural sucks.

Going Away Party... with Features Dance Party

Goodbye, Tennesseans... thanks for a great summer!
KIT! GLOTS!! HAGS!!!

Lin's a pretty good cook...

...but his fake hot dogs made me throw up. Either that or Nikki grossed me out with the story of breaking her arm.

Rock Camp Dance Party!!

Rock Camp!!!

The first day of photography class at camp went like this: here's a camera, take lots of pictures, then we'll look at them and talk about them at the end of class.
So many of the girls took pictures of their shoes...

Recording with Lylas

Yes, that's a suitcase and yes, to the right is a ride and a china cymbal on a hi-hat stand. Lylas does it heavy!

She's skinny again

At first we thought she had just abandoned her kittens, since she just started hanging out on the porch again without a care in the world. Now we think they are safely hidden away. No proof yet, though.

A cookout that is also a video shoot

Playing another show with Lylas

Video Installations at Cheekwood

I'd like to watch all of Ryan Trecartin's I-Be Area sometime, but since it's somewhat narrative and two hours long, having it on a loop is not the best way to get me to do that.
Otherwise, I'm impressed that Nashville got some big contemporary names to come to town - Paul McCarthy, Mike Kelly, Kalup Lindsey.
But my favorite was Guy Ben-Nur's Stealing Beauty, which was shot entirely with hidden cameras in Ikea stores.

Eating For Six

Trashcan's been sluttin' it up... who wants kittens?

It's the Summer of Croquet

How I spent my Fourth of July

All four roommates in my house were planning on going to the same party in Nashville. However, due to a series of Seinfeld-esque miscommunications, everyone drove separately and I was left behind. By the time I realized everyone left without me, it was too late to drive up there myself.

I've Made It

Kelly Kerr and the Distractions play my song "Marsha" as part of their set now. Still waiting for my royalty check.
