Years ago my friend Bruce made a copy of a mix he gave to some friends as part of a wedding gift. (at least I think that was it's origins.) Anyways to this day it remains my all time favorite mix. I have listened to it so many times, that often when I hear one of the songs on their actual album I have to do a double take when the "wrong" song follows. Oops.

also, click on the image to see it larger, read the songs more clearly.

Our masks turned out alright, but I think were I to do it again I would just go for a 2 dimensional paper designed owl mask, inspired by Charley Harper and these masks by Fredericks and Mae.

We had a fun weekend. Sorry for the post Halloween pumpkin picture. That is what happens when you are using film. After getting a little work done Friday night and Saturday morning, we went to Neighborhood to celebrate Dorian's birthday. Look at baby oliver celebrating! Then I made rash last minute decision with Carinna and Angie to drive out to the desert for the Flashdance's Ace party. As they both had to work Saturday night, it was left up to me to craft three matching owl masks. We painted them in the morning and were off! Sadly, I don't have many pictures from that night, just this kind of blurry one that Carinna took of me. (We were working with 200 speed film.) But there will be other pictures to prove the inevitable truth I know, that with such rad talented people behind the party, it was a blast. After some pool time in the morning we recovered with brunch at Cheeky's, which was super delicious, but our waiter had such a bad attitude* we felt it necessary to round of his tip with a pile of pennies. (Don't fuck with us is all I am saying.)

*a fluke I am sure. The rest of the staff seemed lovely. I would gladly return and pray for a different server.

midweek manray, of course.

Happy Voting Day! (image via mociun.)

Assuming the film photos I dropped off last night turned out okay, I will be back with (very late) pics from the weekend tomorrow.)
