So I’ve been sitting for Sabrina for a couple weeks now, and I think she’s finally arrived at a pose for the picture. So far she’s spent her time doing what she calls “preliminary sketches” of me in all kinds of positions. She’s sketched me standing, sitting, shirt on, shirt off, ball cap on, ball … Continue reading Sitting for Sabrina

The Santa Barbara Weekend (last part)
I was still deciding if I wanted to go along with Sabrina painting my picture when me and Joyce headed downstairs for breakfast. I got some eggs, bacon and deviled kidneys, and took the empty chair next to Sabrina. “Have you decided?” “I’m not sure about one thing. Meemaw – my grandmother – brought up … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (last part)
The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 5)
So I still wasn’t sure about whether to let Sabrina – a world-famous artist me and Joyce met over our weekend staying at Justen Hunnycut’s house in Santa Barbara – paint me. That’s even after Luke showed me the portrait she’d done of him, which I liked…and which wasn’t weirdass or super modern or anything … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 5)
The Baseball Gods
Never say there's no such thing as the baseball gods. I did my best not to jinx the Dodgers in the last post I wrote about them, and look at what’s happened. True, Kiké Hernandez did hit a home run during one of the two losses to the Angels last week…but, only a few days … Continue reading The Baseball Gods
The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 4)
It’s not every day that a world famous artist asks to paint you. But that’s what happened: while Joyce and I were up in Santa Barbara for the weekend. Sabrina – who has work hanging in several museums – asked me to sit for her. (“Sit” in that sense was my new word for the … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 4)
Dodgers Update
So what about the Dodgers, since it’s not all about my having my portrait painted by a famous artist me and Joyce met when we were staying with Justen Hunnycut a couple weekends ago in Santa Barbara? They certainly are tempting me to count me some chickens before they hatch: it’s June 4th and they’re … Continue reading Dodgers Update
The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 3)
Me and Joyce went to spend the weekend at the house of Justen Hunnycut, a super rich dude with an incredible house in Santa Barbara. One of the reasons we got invited was so that Joyce could be part of a bridge foursome, since Justen's obsessed with the game. Friday night, Joyce came back to … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 3)
The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 2)
So me and Joyce were invited a couple weekends ago to this super rich dude’s house up in Santa Barbara. We got the invitation through Adam and Allan, who decorated the dude's house (his name's Justen Hunnycut.) Justen is crazy for playing bridge, so he's always on the lookout for people who can play after … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 2)
The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 1)
I needed until the long weekend to write about what me and Joyce did the weekend before. We were invited to spend it up at this super rich dude’s house up in Santa Barbara…and I've got a lot to tell y'all about it. I reckon I need to explain how we got invited in the … Continue reading The Santa Barbara Weekend (part 1)
A May 23rd Coincidence
Ok…do y’all remember when me and Keaton went to Disneyland last year – and going down Splash Mountain got Keaton to admit that Disneyland wasn’t as gay as he thought? While we were there, we ran into a dude who I knew because he wrote a great blog explaining bitcoin. Turned out it was his … Continue reading A May 23rd Coincidence
