Monday, November 29, 2004 I am truly blessed. I went to a parent teacher conference today. Jackson got rave reviews. I'm so pleased. he's really picking up french now.

Sunday, October 31, 2004 2 days in at the Steel Ponies express. The bar has done very well. The event itself is definately not as busy as last year. We paid for a parking permit that extended the whole block so we could have parking for hundreds of motorcycles. Of course the city showed up yesterday claiming that a movie production company had the permit. They are totally fucking us. I think Aaron is going to have a coronary. Now...

Friday, July 30, 2004 San Antonio bar is rocking! I'm glowing I'm so happy!No bar opening goes without a hitch. Our 2 big hitches have been the AC and the ice machine. Of course the AC went down opening night. It was a sauna in here. A repair man came the next day. Of course there seems to be 2 options. 1. keep fixing it evertime it breaks or 2. Pay fucking $22,000 for a state of the art AC...

Is there something in the water? Is it...

Wednesday, March 31, 2004 I've got nothing today that is really funny. I went out with Lee's dad last night. Lee is to his dad what larry Flint is to Ghandi. Lee's dad is so nice and so kind.He works with the mentally retarded, handicapped, and the elderly. The fruit fell far from the tree. I pryed a little into Lee's backround wanting to discover what makes him so over the top. And wa la!! Eureka! It seems that Lee's...

We had a pretty big blow up yesterday. I started thinking today...
