Haven’t posted in awhile. I’ve been writing, just not posting. These are the days of playful secrets. (wouldn’t you like to know)
The days are getting warmer, nights are light longer & there’s the daylight savings time-change coming up sometime – but they changed it, didn’t they?
My schedule’s out of control lately – I think I need to stop making plans.
One big change is that I think we’re changing from a weekly pool night to a weekly darts night – maybe Wednesdays. Its been a long time since I’ve played darts, should be interesting.

pool night
this year we’re changing things up a bit and playing pool occassionally on different nights of the week or different places – A couple weeks ago we went back to one of the first bar/pool-halls we shot at – it had been years since going there & I really enjoyed it. Didn’t recognize anyone and was able to shoot a lot of pool. I must be a lot better than years ago but I still have a lot to learn.
LACMA
Went to LACMA with friends on sunday after a nice breakfast. We got there a bit late, but it was open until 8pm which was nice – not very crowded either. We didn’t choose to see the special Magritte exhibition which cost $17.00. I was able to gaze at quite a few amazing works – unfortunately I didn’t see any Agnes Martin or Wallace Berman.
