My buddy Nato curated a show of political\/activist art called &#8220;the interventionists&#8221; \u2014 it was a pretty rad opening and he was on top of the world. Lots and lots of clapping all weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Last weekend<\/strong> I went back to KS for Jake&#8217;s wedding, which was a lot of fun. I was sitting at the dinner the night before and thinking about how I woke up in New York and now I am eating chicken dinner with all of my friends. Really made me excited for a future when we all have jobs and we can fly somewhere just for a weekend party. I hope that happens anyhow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Today<\/strong> I actually went into the city for a bit and ran into 2 people that I know. I also picked up some magazine called Loyal and flipped through the pages and there was an illustration by my olde english roomate Rich. Then I went to McDonalds &#8211; which is sort of a big deal b\/c I haven&#8217;t done so in maybe 3 years. I got sick of being the guy who says &#8220;I haven&#8217;t eaten McD&#8217;s for 3 years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The battery went dead on my car, I got it charged, I hope it stays charged. I was telling people all weekend what a great car it is. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well, I turned down the job at Slam&#8230; which is code for they hired someone else.
