We spend A LOT of time inside, it is the winter in Detroit, after all. So when we aren't at work we are most likely in the Water House painting, writing, rapping, or watching New Girl on netflix. Most of the time, those things are gloriously satisfying, but every once in a while I get antsy and viciously self critical under these conditions. Today was one of those days.
Waking up in a state of feeling-behind-on-life-ness was actually a good thing in the end. Tina and I both put work into moving ahead, forging forward. I recorded and released a new music video, which took a long time, in spite of how low budget it looks.

It always feels good to get some material out there into cyberspace and it usually means reconnecting with old friends over facebook, and that always nice.
We cleaned out the Water House guud:
BEAUTIFUL yes?
We got some painting done and Tina found a bunch of cool classes she could take here in Detroit.
Best thing about today? DETROIT SOUP. We went to the monthly Detroit Soup meeting which is a brilliant fundraising even that allows the audience to vote on one of four pitches. These can be artistic or entrepreneurial or anything really. Its also a potluck and in general a great way to meet people. Met Harry, an intelligent Detroit native who works doing something in the non-profit sector. He had a lot of interesting things to say about Detroit and about the pitches we had just heard.
This event was the definition of generative. It was a joy to take part I know we will be attending every soup we can manage.
