Mar 21
It’s an old family inside joke, When asked where we were from, we would say, Bel Air. It sounded cool, or at least normal. And it was partially true – because we lived IN a 1956 Chevy Bel Air coupe. Yeah, those were the days. We were homeless a lot….
We lived in Bel Air ..Chevy, that is.
I was a kid at the time and I didn’t exactly realize that this wasn’t normal. I’ve had an interesting life, anyway. I just thought I’d share this…
Try to imagine living in a car like this with your alcoholic gun-slinging dad and chain-smoking mom. We mostly slept in national parks and other forests of Oregon and California. Good times.

Jun 12
Yes, it is true. I refuse to beg, however. I will simply note that July 12 is my birthday. I don’t actually remember it; I was pretty young at the time. It’s just another day.
It is a happy day for a few who are close to me.
It is perhaps a despised day for the haters out there who wish I was never born. Am I officially the most hated person in Tillamook county?
The world wonders.
But for those who care/want to be nice/ have pity/ etc….
Let’s not forget art supplies, though! Especially if you are a devotee of Pagani art. And who isn’t? Nevermind… just check out my the Pagani Dick Blick art supplies wish list, and make someone happy today.
In any case, I’m just glad to be here… I think.
