4/16 Leaf

Posted on April 16 2011 by kevin

So I was headed over to Starke today to sell some RX7 parts. On the way, while hauling ass down 301, I experienced one of those odd, surreal moments. I watched a big Maple(?) leaf come from the other side of the road (a good 500ft) and slowly spinning 360′s on the wind cross over [...]

4/19 Downtown Arts Festival and Car Show

Posted on April 16 2011 by kevin

Hit the Spring Downtown Arts Festival in Gainesville. Was in a horrible mood due to stress from work and other sundry items. Didn’t see much that impressed me however there was one gentleman who had some very interesting work. He was an Asian guy using traditional Asian imagery combined with mixed media such as oils [...]

4/7/11 Nosebleed Friday

Posted on April 9 2011 by kevin

No idea why but had a massive nosebleed today. Last time I had a nosebleed that I can remember I was like 12 and was poking my sister Kim in the back of the head during a family road trip from North Carolina. Without looking, she back handed me and I had a nosebleed. Weird.

4/3/11 – Cedar Key Art Festival

Posted on April 4 2011 by kevin

So…despite living near Cedar Key, a small town located on the Gulf of Mexico, for 14 years, I’ve never been there. Apparently for quite some time, Cedar Key has hosted an annual art festival with a fairly decent juried prize. I had no idea what to expect so Lindsay and I headed over to check [...]

3/26/11: March of Dimes Walk 2011

Posted on March 29 2011 by kevin

So…that time of year again. Where I become a de facto employee of the March of Dimes. Two days of lifting, walking, sun, moving, following orders…all for a good cause! Last year was my first event and damn…not enough volunteers showed and I was exhausted. This year was a bit more pleasant. We had TONS [...]

3/19/11: 37th Birthday.

Posted on March 29 2011 by kevin

So…I guess I’m getting old? 37…wow. I have to admit, this hasn’t been the best birthday. I fully expected about $20,000 in business this month and so far…zip. Yea it sucks. Really struggling at the moment and I hate the stress and lack of motivation a situation like this brings to me. I’m trying to [...]

3/12/11-3/13/11 – Clearwater

Posted on March 20 2011 by kevin

So this past weekend went down to Clearwater with Lindsay to check out her brother Adam’s new house. Adam’s place interestingly enough is located just a few blocks from where I went to Middle School and may have been the house an old baby sitter used to live in. In my opinion, the house was [...]

3/12/11 Saturday: Tsunami

Posted on March 14 2011 by kevin

It will be interesting to look back in a few years to understand the full repercussions of the terrible Tsunami that overwhelmed Japan this past week. While a 9.0 magnitude earthquake is bad enough, the massive wave of water that followed has caused an almost unheard of amount of damage and loss of life in [...]

3/4/11: Friday – Chris’s Going Away Party

Posted on March 7 2011 by kevin

So my cousin Chris is going into the military…the Airforce to be exact. Friday night his girlfriend’s Mother hosted a party in Alachua for him. I noticed as I hit my mid-30′s I became much more aware of the quality of my upbringing and that age was bringing me a little bit of wisdom. I [...]

Posted on March 3 2011 by kevin

Mostly finished up a Facebook Page for Advanced Markets using the new iframe ability of Facebook and HTML5. My first HTML5 endeavor! Wheee! People were driving like ass around town today. My dumbass today [...]
