Happy Halloween!!

This is one of my favorite Hol­i­days. Due to being busy and a recent bout of the stom­ach flu, I haven’t been in the spirit too much this year, but today’s the day, so I’m try­ing to get into it. And to help me, here’s a great Hal­loween cos­tume: Speech­less, huh? I think it’s still better […]

David Love = Texas Patriot

My last entry I men­tioned I was play­ing at Nuno’s with one of my stu­dents. This gig hap­pened last Thurs­day, and it went really well for them. We fol­lowed them with a com­pletely mediocre set.

And what is there to write about?

And what is there to write about? Nada, as far as I can see. I’m cur­rently wait­ing at a cour­t­house to dis­cuss a traf­fic ticket, and I have no idea as to how long I’m going to be here. I fin­ished the news­pa­per, and there’s no mag­a­zines here except for Rotar­ian and the AARP bul­letin. No […]

Fall in Texas

It is now early October,and it’s offi­cially fall around the world. All the busi­nesses are putting out their fall stock. Seattle’s Best Cof­fee has a pump­kin spice cof­fee (per­fect for those crisp nights!) Star­bucks has a lim­ited edi­tion pump­kin cream cheese muf­fin. I was at Cen­tral Mar­ket the other day (the coolest gro­cery store in […]
