Hey kids! On vacation for a week! Will be in Philly through Wednesday, and in DC Friday :) Updates later! Sorry for the lack of juicy rumors, insider info, and inane prattle! ...been busy building my Gallery Website!!

Hey kids! I'm back! Here now, at long last, is my vacation in pictures. It started with the 4th of July. Tom, Jane, Steve, and Lisa came down to have a cookout that my brother was having for the family. We were then going to go to Baltimore to see Dave's band and the fireworks, but the cookout started later than I had originally thought... so we just walked to the Naval Academy and watched the local fireworks!


A little GTA III to get things started.


Walking on the Academy grounds.


Me and Jane.. the blog nerds.


Bang!

Lisa and I played Scrabble that weekend:

Then on Tuesday and Wednesday, Lisa and Tom and Jane and I went to Philly to the Mütter Museum and South Street! Tom used his medical photography credentials to get us the VIP tour of the basement, etc! RAD! You will see some pics of lower quality - as labelled, they have come from my camera-enabeled cell phone! I got the new model attachment for $40!!


Smiles before we head North.


Me and the girl!


Almost there.


We made it!


First thing is first - food! Real Philly cheesesteaks.


Tom looks happy, hehehe!


No pictures allowed in the Mütter, though I did get some of the Pessiaries, mummified penises, severed heads in jars, abnormal fetuses in jars, and skulls... just can't post them! Sorry, horror fiends.


But believe me, it was rad.


We walked around afterwards... we saw what might have been a dead woman in the park! It was hot!


See?!?! Some guy in his BOXERS cooling off over a street vent!!


We saw a Kaiju sticker!!! See the sign?!?


We went shopping at exciting places.


And saw great helmets!


There was even a pink fountain. Wow.


We had breakfast at a great time-warped greasy spoon.


And Lisa and I played some more Scrabble.


We has so much fun! Here's Jane at Casa Wynn.


We even took in a showing of Pirates of the Caribbean... then ate food!


All in all it was a great great week! I got in some late night modelling too, naturally.


I wish it could have been longer... and to top it all off, Lisa, Jonathan, and I saw Brian Regan last night in Baltimore!! He was HILARIOUS! I'll be copying my recording of it to cd this week, mwuhahahah. Well, back to work! Love, Jason

Helloooo, I spent Saturday with Lisa in Baltimore and Towson. I FINALLY ate at the Panera on York Rd, which was delicious! We went shopping, and played at Petsmart:

Later at the City Café, we played Scrabble and gorged ourselves on beef and chocolate!


Lisa won... again.


Here's the board.

She added "ed" to my word "accept" and that pretty much killed my lead. Then, she lays down "quips"... well, I added an "e" to that, but it just wasn't enough.


I'm a sore loser.

Song on iPod? "The Friut That Ate Itself" by Modest Mouse.

Rock! Jason

Gonna spend this evening working on a few models... I've expanded into dioramas, bumm bummm ba bummm. Tomorrow I'll visit The Machen Manor (Nicholas is CRAWLING) and Sunday I will be at Artscape in Baltimore with Lisa. Tom and Jane are manning a sculpture booth!

Song on iPod? "Cascade" by Siouxsie and the Banshees.


Damn! South Park fever! Watch this space as I'll be updating with everyone :)

Darin, from Potato Valley!

Marie!

Monica!

Here's Jon Machen's version of himself!

And here are Lisa and I onboard the Falcon:

Tom!

Jane!

Steve!

More later! Song on iPod? "Slow Dog" by Belly!

This is me, a la the South Park "make yourself into a South Park Character" Flash deelie. Listening to "Queen B" by Marine Research at the moment, and feeling like today is the best day ever, even though it's just a random Thursday.

I'm going to make another South Park Jason using a few non-Flash tricks :)


Hey gang! Still plugging away at the website building - I have all the archives done (the most tedious part - done! yay!) and most of the links. "About Me" is next, I guess - then "Sounds"!


That's me in the way-too-early-morning.

Had a great dinner at Chevy's with Lisa and Jenn Tuesday night, and am putting a few hobby-related things aside this week in a concerted effort to push some of the last piles out the door to eBay. I have a few more things to re-acquire that I had to give up in 2001. And I want a god-damn house! Heeee.

Song on the iPod? "Southernmost" by The Lucksmiths. Hearts, Jason

Colleen Koskinen, fresh from her duties as a new Mommy.


Went to Artfest yesterday. Lisa got dehydrated.


Jane took pics of herself!


We saw weird cars.


And we milled about, looking incredulous and worried.

Song on the iPod? "Hig School" by Lou Barlow. love, Jason

Ahhhh, I'm getting OLD. 6 hours of sleep just does not cut it anymore.

Party at Landmarks last night!

Jenn was her usual elegant self:

I got Marie on film!

And her non-sexual-life-partner in crime, Darin:

Holly was happy too!

And Rachael was stylin'!

Dave, Holly, Jonathan and I then left to DC to see RILO KILEY!!!

I loved the lit-eyed animals on their backdrop - rarrrgh! In sad news, my recording was somehow "fucked", and I got 3/4ths of the first song only. FAWK! Just enough to hear how great all those new and restyled songs could have sounded :(

Sooo pretty!!

This band is so amazingly good! Tight presentation, great vibe, amazing songs... YEAHYEAH! It was totally worth rolling in at 2am, and now that the Mocha is kicking in, I feel better. Awake. Cool.

Lisa is playing sleepover tonight! We're getting free dinnah from one of my job's clients too - I take pics of their best dishes, then I get to eat 'em! "life is haaaard!" ;)

Song on iPod? "My Slumbering Heart" by RILO FUKKIN KILEY!

Love, Jason
