The Way We Get By






"We get high in back seats of cars
We break into mobile homes
We go to sleep to shake appeal
Never wake up on our own

And that's the way we get by
The way we get by."- Spoon

If it's Fall, I must be insanely busy...
work's keeping me from posting
regularly...rules is rules, luv...
I'm too tired to even think up a cute story
to accompany my sketch dump...
Most of these pics were taken at a street fair and all
the kids are looking up at me holding rapidly melting icees...
Here's a few random thoughts till I can come back to Bloggertown...
Listening to a few great bands these days through my work mates...
Pinback, Midlake, Cold War Kids, Feist, and though Dave Grohl kinda
went Kumbaya on me, I'm also checking out the new Foos....strangely mellow...
The new single was so RAWK...
I've decided to smoke three packs a day till I sound like the lead singer
from Spoon...love that guy's voice....why isn't that band huge?
And I'll leave you with the greatest KennaQuote in recent memory....

"Dad, I think I either want to die of old age, or I want to die by Excalibur."

"Are you talking about Excalibur...the sword King Arthur pulled out of the stone?
THAT Excalibur?"

"Yeah....that one....."

Glory Days



"I take a look in the mirror-
Wanna change my clothes, my hair, my face."- The Boss

Man- you know I'm in a bad funk when I'm quoting Springsteen...
I'm two months from 40.
FORTY!
Dead Man Walkin'...
I'm starting to feel it too...mornings are the worst-
my body sounds like Rice Krispies when I get out of bed....
I wanna shave my head or do something drastic...
"It's a mid-liiiife criiiiiyi-siiiiiisssss." as Faith No More would sing...
Hope I snap out of it...and soon...
Here's McKenna- in a rare pose rocking her eye patch.
We're seeing the doctor this month and hopefully,
she'll only hafta wear it two hours a day. (down from six)
I guess that's how you work a lazy eye into shape.
Wonder how you work a lazy artist into shape?

Ribbit!

P.S.- Sending our Prayers to Phred out West Eric...Hope she's up and about soon.
