Monday Sundry

My Dad started the third chemo treatment today, and he's dozing in the bed next to me as I type this. This cocktail is known as GemOx (Gemcitabine-Oxaliplatin), and it has a high response rate — so I'm quite hopeful. The main concern is that it won't affect his breathing or lungs, so that remains to be seen. But again, I'm hopeful. If you're the praying type, please continue to remember Dad, and pray that this will kill the cancer once and for all — and that this will lead to his breathing normalizing.

It's curious to me that I'm selling more effects internationally than I am in the U.S. — and all with no advertising. I just got an order from South Africa, which is cool. however, I will not feel complete until I get an order from Ireland — so if any of my Irish brothers are reading this, place an order, you ould sweats!

I'm still nailing down details on getting my tattoo at High Voltage in L.A., so there's not a whole lot new to report on that front. I'm still going back and forth with Dennis on various topics, but I haven't officially scheduled anything yet. One thing, though, is that the more I think about it, the more I'm leaning toward getting a half-sleeve tattoo — that would be totally awesome.

So, the final tattoo would be a mix of my Family Crest on my right shoulder, then who knows what wrapping down and around until just above my elbow. Stay tuned!

An old friend built me an amp, and so far, it freakin' rules. I haven't had much time to play with it yet, but I may keep it because it looks so awesome, if nothing else! Stay tuned on this, too...

I am so not looking forward to having to do inventory for RAILhead Effects, because I have THOUSANDS of components to track. It will NOT be fun. Ugh.

I scored some more work for Ford Models, so that's pretty dadgum cool. I think most of the pics will be used in ads in and around New York and San Francisco, and I think it's going to be for some perfume or something like that. We'll see.

That's it. I'm getting sleepy sitting in this chair, so I'm going to take a nap...
