CHRYSALIS
At first I was just here for the holidays. And then maybe I would stay just a little longer and help the folks out. They are old and they don’t drive anymore and I will save some dough since I am looking for a new place anyways.
But then a month goes by. What day is it even? What is happening to me? Who am I?
An upgrade is happening. All systems are being fixed or replaced.
A grand healing.

SD
I left SF and came to LA for one night. I crashed at Jamie’s crib.
Then down to SD to hang with the folks for the holidays.
It was Keith’s Bday too.
Then back up to LA to hit my storage unit real quick.
Santa at the post office surveying the land?
Back to SD.
Tango party.
Juanita’s.
My parents’ neighbor Dave dropped off a bag of presents for us. My Mom crocheted him a scarf.

THE PEARLS OF APHRODITE
I went up to SF for about a week. I think I stayed 10 days actually. It went so fast I could’ve stayed 10 more. I miss it there. I miss my friends and the pedestrian lifestyle. It is so easy to hang out. I do not miss the weather. It was cold as fuck the entire time. And rainy.
Monkey and Bibiru.
Making photos to hang for the Hamburger Eyes new issue release party at Mike’s Barbershop.

Hoarders. Troy says it’s fake. Troy says the whole channel is fake. Kappy says put it on mute.

Stucci.
Mike’s Barbershop is fun.
When BB got home I asked him what is in the terrarium and he points out all the snails I didn’t notice. Then he lifts up the leaves on the bottom and there’s a grip of eggs. He eats them. He says they’re called “The Pearls of Aphrodite” or “White Caviar”.
There was a few more that I didn’t get a photo of. But you get the idea.
Andrea and Mark.
George.
RIP ORFN. Legend status. Sad day for SF.
Kappy and Casey.
Krista and Michelle.
Tiffany.
RIP ORFN.

TANKED
These guys are installing a 40 foot fish tank at a casino. I love this show. My mom says she already saw this episode but doesn’t mind watching it again because she loves this show too.

1001 FRAMES
We hung 500 photos at our show in February. We sold approx 200 of them. And then 8 months later I went to pick up the rest. This is the trunk but the back seats and front seats were stacked too.
The original idea was to hang 1000 photos. On some retarded math I thought there was enough wall space. There wasn’t.
Because I took so long, of course the frames got buried in art and other things in the basement of the gallery. Here is Fred. He is holding a box of our posters.
The Paperworks guys had a booth at Complexcon. I brought them some zines and some of these framed photos. After it was all done for some reason Mike returned all my stuff to Nick over at Little Big Man Gallery. This bear was in the hallway when I came to pick up.
Quick visit, Nick was busy and had to catch a flight to Paris for a book fair.
