holloween picks!

Art is a very instinctive process for me, I do very little thinking about the way things work in art and color theory. Tonight Emma was painted some drawings she made and while I was helping her clean up I pointed out that she could use less paint next time because she had a lot of green left over. Emma said she was trying to make brown, so I told her that she should have put more red in to bring it back to brown. She said she used red blue and yellow, then I said if the color was too orange you should add more blue and Emma said so you add more of what ever color isn't being used(of the three primary's) to make it more brown. I had to stop and picture the process and she was exactly right. I was very proud of her and think its neat how she thinks differently and taught me something about art.

For the last six months or so I've been workshoping Maya with Jerry ,Andy , And Dave. About every other week Jerry would ask if I wanted to work out in the morning and of course I always said no. Last week I said yes, so three time a week I've got up at 5:30( once at 5:00) and gone and worked out. Jerry has a nice little gym in his house. It's pretty cool getting up early and getting something done its like free time.

This morning We got the kids up at 6:20ish and went to the pummkin patch. The Gillcreise farm opened up it's pumkin patch Wednesday and if you don't go soon after opening its slim pickins. It was a beautiful morning,we had the place to ourselves and it was overcast and warm. As we were leaving a light rain made a pater,pater sound from hiting the wide pumkin leaves, it was a good morning.

Tonight I was reading a Judy Blume book with Emma. It was one of the later Fudge books, and in it Fudge is in a library and the librarian suggests he use the CARD CATALOG to find a book.Its really scary how archaic that seems, especially since I remember using them as a young teen. Drawers filled with hundreds of cards , thousands. God bless technology.

The solution I decided to go with on the whole phone drama was get a crappy free phone, and buy an ipod. It worked, the solution that is.

So remember that cool phone I was talking about last post? It broke. Nice. The display fades to white after every push of a button. Thankfully its still under warranty, but now I must question the durability of said phone and ponder the ramifications of buying or not buying cell phone insurance UGG.That my friends is how they get ya.

As I was running spell check I picked up the phone and its now working fine. Perfect, I get to take a phone that appears to have nothing wrong with it to the store and what?, say "this phone was broke fer like, ten minutes, can I have another one? Crap.

Today I got a new phone. People couldn't hear me talk on my old one. So I needed a phone and I asked Cheryl for a Mp3 player for my birthday, so I got a combo jobie. It'sa Nice. I Like, Yes.

I talked to Kelly Segovia today, I haven't see him in a year and it felt like we just hung out yesterday. Neat.

My Parents took me to Tony Romas tonight. If you hate the singing birthday thing from the waiting staff at restaurants then Romas is the place for you. The Waitress said they don't sing any more and you get the choice of ice cream or a bottle of their BBQ sauce, I chose the sauce.

Happy birff day to me. 33 Years ago on a rainy Portland evening I was born to Tom and Celia Citizen. I like birthdays, it's a reason to have a party and you get to be the center of attention. So this Saturday I having a guitar hero birthday party, come and rock your way to cash and prizes!(well prizes anyway) The rocking starts 6:00 pm, pizza and beer provided.

Oh yeah, the new blog. The Idea I had was to start a new one annually. So hear it is. Awesome stock bloger template huh?.
Peep my sweet flyer.The date and time are wrong so ignore those.
