Please support my fundraising efforts for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network

Kelly lost her father to pancreatic cancer 2 weeks ago. He had been diagnosed only 4 months ago. Think about that for a moment: 4 months. 4 months is a flash. Many of us have been unemployed for longer periods than that, have traveled for longer periods than that. Think about a semester in college. We’re talking a very short period of time.

I can’t even imagine what Kelly, Brad and Emily have gone through these past months, having to say goodbye to their dad in such a short amount of time. I’ll be joining Kelly on her birthday for a fundraiser walk, in memory of her father: Mike Blanchard.
Please stop by my fundraiser page & join us if you want to, donate if you can.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.

Much love

sam

today i am grateful for:

• recognizing that it is important to articulate my gratitude.
• seeing Lisa absolutely shine on opening night in an incredible play.
• going for margaritas with Luscious and David after the play.
• having a 3 day weekend after a relentless work week but, much more importantly: Martin Luther King
• 2 gigs coming up next week.
• a heartfelt email from Todd.
• seeing Todd tomorrow.
• my friendship with Kelly.
• my beautiful kitten.
• purple lipstick.
• finally replacing one of my most treasured records, which i lost in 2003 at a party in Austin playing a 12 hour 2×4 set (Thanks, Addictech!)

you classy punk, you.
i love you, sweetheart.

thank you for making my world a better place.

i needed that more than i realized.

See Kelly’s pictures.

For that silly girl, Kelly. And the other one: Red. Oh, and i guess it’s that Dirtgirl Tracy’s b-day, too. should be a boring party, considering these three are about the most boring girls you could ever spend time with ;-)

let it be known, that i recently purchased a cellphone. i hate the phone. despise it. yes, it’s true. so what on earth would push a stubborn soul like myself to acquiesce? Kelly rules her world with a satin-gloved iron fist: You’ll live by her rules & you’ll like it. No really, it won’t hurt at all. See: you’re smiling already.
