The Monthly Challenge

Today is the last day of July...it's a bit sad. I feel like I experienced a lot, but still didn't accomplish everything I set out to do. Designing and building websites is hard work - especially when you do it all day and then try to come home and do some more of it. I've had a nasty knot in my neck for the past few days. On Monday, I just came home and passed out. Then on Tuesday, I went out with some friends for some un-artistic yet delicious drinks and dinner at Cobras and Matadors.

I was sick on Friday and stayed home and did some work on my brother's website. I finished up a fairly solid design Saturday morning and sent it over for feedback before heading up to the Griffith Observatory (which was pretty kick ass - I need to go back at night and also check out some of their shows.) He liked most of it, so now I'm just working on converting it to a wordpress theme.

So, instead of going to see War Games tonight, I went over to Westwood to catch a screening of Gonzo: The Life and Work of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson. All I have to say is, thank fucking God I went to see this movie instead.

Going into this movie, I only knew the following about Hunter S. Thompson:

I've been working pretty long hours the past few weeks. On Friday though, I got out of work at a reasonable time, then went to see Darker My Love at the echo. They were pretty good, although a bit more psychedelic than I was expecting. Saturday was just as busy as the rest of the week.
