Birthweekend was roller coaster of roller coasters......Solid trip to Santa Barbara scored, shoes, pants, Yoshimi on Vinyl, and some quality Harmless Soul LPs......looking good til the lady dumped me that night.....slowed down the weekend, but mardi gras returned to SLO with much effect, enough to even get me out of my room....Big time dinner at Tsurugi's Sushi....big ups to harvey for the planning and Brad for grabbing the saki box....dance party ensued, realtionship back in line, found out Diploma by june is not just a phantom wish, offered co-editor job with malik in making new mag in town, suns out, and for the first time since Bean sent me into the James Turrell's phonebooth I was completely awed by a visual artist when I saw Rivers and Tides, a film on Andy Goldsworthy....some of it kind of new agey, some of it Holy Shit!!!
