Happy Halloween
thought #13
when you shoot a mime should you use a silencer?
dancing mime
i went to another halloween party. this time i couldn't be a ninja because there was dancing and my large swords would be cumbersome. so i went as something simple. a mime. my sister obviously had all i needed. it worked great.
feed them and they will come
Everyone's doing it!
posting this picture
not, getting married
in the end they will go their own way. but not yet please, stay with me a while longer, little one
Thought #12
is is possible to move so fast through life that you leave God behind?

"Jesus is your only audience"
~my mother on the phone this morning
i tried to design a video game when i was younger. this is one of many maps and a charater from another game. mushroom cities, thieves, giant spiders, tree houses, ancient ruins, a young heroine and a cute girl. the whole bit.
'Quest for Audlin'
now you know what video game deprived children do. they make there own. how's that for a little looksey into the childishness that made me
the fact that i still have them and hold them close to my heart should tell you something too
try to guess which of the Johnston family is my mom
click on pick for answer (this is fun)
i've lucked out yet again.
i have to move from where i'm at the end of this week because his wife and kids are coming back. didn't know where i was going until tonight. my grandparents are selling their beach house and i get to stay there til it sells. it is really nice and close to work and right on the beach.
my grandparents are really nice.
go ninja, go ninja, go, go, go
tonight, i went to a halloween party as a ninja warrior. between me and my sister we had 2 samarji swords that i stapped to my back in an X. i was in all black and a ski mask. the apitemy of coolness. although, i think the best costume was the UPS man. brown shorts, brown collared shirt, and a brown cardboard package.... i didn't like the gorey costumes. halloween is my least favorite holiday because of the gore
the owner of the house i've been staying at for the past month has been gone for ten days. his dog ran away the day he came back. i was the last to see it. i found out today that his brother was brutally murdered and found in the Arizona desert last week. so his brother has died and then he comes home to me telling him his dog is gone. i feel horrible. and his wife and kids are coming back this week to no more dog.... ... in life, when it rains, it pours. pray for him
takes a bit to load. enjoy it daveo
Skype
i finally downloaded skype and was looking for people i know when guess who starts talking through my computer. Janice, Marisa, and Courtnay. it was like running into some good friends at the mall. it was great. other than the fact it felt like i was talking to a bunch of girls on the phone (which i was) it was great. everyone should definitely at least try it
you should definitly see Josh's box video if you haven't. check his site
Happy Birthday Celine Kars
Tinker Bell
a new girl is coming to work at our studio.
she used to be Tinker Bell at disneyland. she was the one that jumped down that zipline from the top of the Matterhorn every night. she sounds fun.
to bad she is probably too a little short to be a partner.
i miss my old partner

(i have to admit this was fun. it's like talking all you want about yourself with the excuse that you were asked. we should do this more often)
i have a new student that i just started teaching. she has a private secretary that calls to schedule her lessons with me and a diver (the kind that open the door for you) that drops her off at her lessons. she's in her late 30s early 40's. when i talked to her about her job when we were dancing on our first lesson she said she had just retire from being the president of St. John Knits clothing company. and showing my ignorance as i so easily do i told her that i have never heard of it. she paid for the $1000 of dancing lessons with a neat black credit card.............when she left our secretary said she must be really rich because there are only 400 of that type of card even out there. apparently St. Johns is expensive clothes...........oh and my student knows John O'Hurley from "dancing with the stars". pretty cool hugh
G.I. Ken
rmember the program i told you guys Kenneth is going through in Oregon. he is running a marathon on sunday. 23 miles. .........that's my brother! whoohoo
doesn't this look like McDoughy (don't know how to spell it but RA Lauren)
Universal Hilton
so we had some training competition this weekend for dance. but the great part was it was at the Hilton overlooking Univeral
Studios. i felt like the pauper in the princes palace.
the only down side was that i didn't have much sleep Saturday night because my jerk of a roomate was having sex with one of the other instructors and i didn't particularly want to stay around for it.
the dancing was great though. i'm learning alot
sorry i haven't published more..
... i've been using my dinner break to read a great book rather than write you guys or eat. because we all know i don't really eat much.... so sorry if the post have been shortcoming. what can i say. it was a good book.
Bombs
before i got on the freeway to drive home from work friday there was an explosion in the underground. the big septic lines that run under the street. it blew not just the manhole cover but the cement around it up on the side walk. then i drove into the open hole. only the right side of my car though.
happy Birthday Heidi Tullmann
