By day, I raise money to help low income adults go back to school and get good paying jobs. By night, I draw, paint and generally don’t sleep much.

Gmorning to you
And to the voices in your head and in your life that shit on EVERYTHING,

tell ‘em, not today
tell ‘em, i’m BUSY, go snark in a gutter
...
Now let’s get busy living, vamos
