Hey Timothy!! Thanks for the words. Hope you guys are well. I just sent Erin an email...wanted to see when you guys were in Rochester again... maybe we can plan it out to be there at the same time. Hope all the art is going well! talk soon.
I think one day, as you're taking an afternoon stroll, a big white limo will pull alongside you. The back window will slide down and a man that looks like the movie producer type will say, "Hey...You with the talent..."
Keep drinking your coffee (the only real brain food) and the imagination flowing.

Stacey and I saw a movie that I know is up your alley. In fact, it's in your garage and walking into your bedroom. "Once". It's one of the good things.
