So it's been ages since I've posted a blog, or even connected with people on MySpace.

It's been a tough year, from break-ups, to lost jobs, and dealing with health problems. It has taken all my energy, so I've made some personal radical decisions.

It's time to leave the land of fairies, and go back to the heartland. So with my cd in my pocket, I'm going back home to Minneapolis to re-group and take a much needed rest from never-never land. Songwriting is such a big part of who I am, I can't be truly happy unless I'm writing, performing and constantly recording new music.

Thanks so much for your support and feedback so far: I'll be in touch soon, with more detailed news and plans.

Hey everyone sorry for the delay in my blogs, fallen into the pitfalls of the monotonous everyday lifestyle.  So I've finally decided to take this show on the road.  I'll be meeting with guitar players this week, so I can start rehearsing and start playing out.  I hope to be playing out by the end of this month.  I'll be around the L.A. area, and then will see where it takes me.  Random thought, anyone catch any of new awful reality show's yet this summer.  I'm as guilty as the next person, when it comes to reality TV, of course I watched the "Rock of Love" (First Season Only), but it seems like everyone and there uncle, grandma or assistant has there own show these day's. There's Living Lohan, Denise Richards, Tori Spelling, the list goes on and, a little more credit for your viewer please.  Although I did hear a rumor the Ozzy's were coming back, have to admit I'm pretty excited about that one.....guess I'm just as guilty as the next guy. 

Life is full of little unexpected surprises.  Strolling thru my local amazing flee market, (Melrose and Fairfax) is where you can find me on any given Sunday.  You can really find so many different treasures, I went there today with my roommate, with holes burned thru my pockets, with my forty dollars, which I insist on not spending, because it's the only money I have until Friday.  I convince myself into not buying anything, very level headed, gas and food is more important this week.  Just when I thought I had escaped the tantalizing appeal of the trading post, I saw it, it was the most amazing picture I had ever seen, it was huge an old victorian painting, set in about the 1800's, with a real wood grand gold frame perfectly outlining the scene.  It drew me and then drew me into a depression when I realized this painting was at least a couple hundred dollars, which I no where near had.  As I was gazing in solace at the painting I knew I could never have, my roommate approached the seller and asked how much the painting was, in my amazement he replied forty dollars, at that exact moment a women's voice behind me said, how much for the painting, (she was obviously as shocked as I was) and then I screamed 'I'll take it', I grabbed my scrunched up gas and food money from my pocket and handed it over, took my painting, and made my way out of there, (out of fear, that the man would have realized he had made a big mistake).  Any way's it was a great day, just finished hanging my enormous painting up and have been staring at it for the last hour.  I have to say, I've never been so happy to be so poor in my life! 
P.S. Go to my photo's page to see my painting.........

Does anyone ever feel like, taking a pair of scissors and cutting themselves, not even thru the skin, but cutting off all there hair.  I feel like that everyday, and everyday I keep fighting the urge.  I wonder is I love myself, sometimes I can't control the pages and pages of dialogue that burn thru my head every night, it makes me want to do something crazy, so write to get some sort of release, to get some sort of peace, I wonder if I've scene to much, done to much, and now have no control.  I hold myself so close, so tightly with the fear, of what may happen, all I want is freedom, and peace from myself. 

A work in progress.........
