Cover Me in Humanness

My friend, The Theatre Actor, plays "Randy" in The Zoo Project's production of Cover Me In Humanness at the 2009 Capital Fringe Festival. Check out this promo "ode" on YouTube!

Waiting for the world to begin

I'm in Alexandria for the 2nd time in as many weeks. This is very
unusual for me, but I can't hate the Fish & Chips at O'Connell's.
Candy, Puff, and I especially enjoyed our friend Tom's show at
Athenaem. We'll have to come back on the 19th for his artist's talk!

My Michael Jackson

This is my Michael Jackson. I know the song means many things to many people and it's interpretation has changed over time for me as well. Without a doubt, it is one of his most powerful songs.

"I'm starting with the man in the mirror
I'm asking him to change his ways
And no message could have been any clearer
If you wanna make the world a better place
Take a look at yourself and then make a change..."

I hope his untimely death was not the result of the pills, powders, and/or potions (RIP Heath & Anna Nicole.) So many selfishly first blame, then become the addiction. It's a shame when it is hard to tell the difference between the person and the abuse and tragedy when we lose them.

It's a party

Party On!

We are having a fab time celebrating with LW! Bachelorett Parties rock!

The Grand Arrival

Street Scene

I'm priming for the weekend this week, but I didn't expect to see a dude pissing outside the center of the earth.

Coming Home

I haven't posted much because the camera on my phone has a big black splotch that is only getting worse. The new one is a few days out. I came off a busy work trip to a fun weekend with my daughter and family in Ohio. Unfortunately I missed this performance just blocks from home back in the district...next time! Looking forward to my flight home!

My Twin

Happy Birthday to you, the Gay and the Jew! FAB times with good friends!

Feliz Quinceañera

How on earth is my daughter turning 15 today? Someone needs to alert the media because it is a miracle that a 12 year old can have a 15 year old child.

Happy Birthday!

Here's to two of my favorite girls! Happy Birthday Baby Lisa and Becky Lynne! Wish you could both be with me at the p-rat to toast it in! One of you will have to do!

Why is daniel wearing my boots?

Somehow I made it!

Thank God for bloody marys! Fun Times!

Memorial Day Camping!

We had a fantastic time camping with friends in Bentonville along the river. It was a little disconcerting to stop for a BEAR to cross the street about a mile from our camp. I tried to catch him with my cell phone camera, but he was really fast. If you click the picture above, you can see his ears and ass to the right/behind the tree as he jumped over the fence to get out of Bernadette's way. Fortunately, we all lived and none of the Black or RNG Bears invaded our campsite. Can't wait to go back in two weeks! If anyone is interested in camping, we'll be going all summer. Who'd ever believe I'd become a primitive mountain camper? Hope y'all had a great Memorial Day too!

Insomnia

I am so excited about the long camping weekend that I can't sleep! Looking forward to being off the grid and watching the sun come up without an urban backdrop. It is kind of pretty this AM in the city.

Baby Ben!

This is the sad face I make when Uncle Jay has to lay me down and leave.

DC 2443

I'm all for parking control to keep places for the residents of my neighborhood to park, but this parking patrol car has parked illegally, blocking my condo's dumpster, for 3 days. Not OK.

Sunday Funday!

Prediction: It doesn't end well...Greek Festival, Dick's, Freddies, Cantina Marina, and now we might be up in the Secrets. This is our bartender Sam's belt. LOVE IT. Is tomorrow Monday? Shit.
