Saturday Happy Song - Missing Persons - Color in Your Life

Happy Friday!

“The job is what you do when you are told what to do. The job is showing up at the factory, following instructions, meeting spec, and being managed.

Someone can always do your job a little better or faster or cheaper than you can.

The job might be difficult, it might require skill, but it's a job.

Your art is what you do when no one can tell you exactly how to do it. Your art is the act of taking personal responsibility, challenging the status quo, and changing people.

I call the process of doing your art 'the work.' It's possible to have a job and do the work, too. In fact, that's how you become a linchpin.

The job is not the work.”
― Seth Godin, Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?

I finally saw the Tom Hanks episode of SNL from over Halloween this last weekend when I was laying around up too late, and this skit nearly killed me. Kate Mckinnon and Cecily Strong are AMAZING. I seriously could not breath. I love them and they make this whole damn sketch.

It's rained a lot lately in Los Angeles. It's been lovely. I miss days when I got to wander around in it and make romantic moments...

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year!
Here's to 2017!!

I've been M.I.A. because the last 1/4 of this year got hard. Jobs lost, jobs won, gigs lost, gigs won...sickness, health, reflection about life.

I could go on, but it'll take all night.

Goodbye 2016. Like all years, you weren't all bad, but you weren't all great. You were a mixed bag, and I learned a lot.

I wish all of you happiness, health and love in 2017.
