Who wouldn't wanna go on an adventure

Hello, hello

I saw up this week! Me and my dad spent some quality father son time and hit a dinner and a movie. He knew I wanted to see it so he was more than willing to go though I don't know it would have been his first choice but I think we both really enjoyed it. Thats the thing about pixar films, you can be 5 or 55 and come out of one of there films feeling something. With UP I came out with both the 5 year olds feeling of adventure and excitement and the 55 year olds feeling of life is short, make each moment count, and figure out whats really important. I guess the 5 year olds had the concept down unconsciously.

I also saw the hangover this week which was hilarious, Zach Galifianakis is a genious. I found myself laughing just at his body language when no one else was. If you didn't know he's fantastic in fiona apples not about love video!

Im not political at all but I watch the NBC special on Inside the Obama White House this week as well. I thought it was very interesting and loved when Obama went to Five Guys Burgers even if it was a political stunt.

....... anywho I will say this about our President. He seems like a really family focused man if you saw it. I like that about him. It seems he really cares about the dates with his wife, or eating at the dinner table with the whole family, and having a play area outside his office window where he is able to watch his daughters play. Maybe im wrong but if thats how he is those are some great qualities anyone should respect!

Im A Loner Dottie, A Rebel

Favorite Scene from Pee Wees Big Adventure. Once a guy overheard me qoute it and said o your a big Saves The Day fan? I said o is that a saves the day song? He was like yea look I have a tattoo of it! I was like o I was talking about Pee Wee.... Come to find out his song qoute tattoo was actually a song by The Get Up Kids, haha. No wonder I don't have any tattoo's yet



Anyway long time no blog, The past week I went down to Orlando, FL with my family to Disney. It was awesome we stayed in the hotel the monorail goes through at magic kingdom which was really nice and they even played Wall-e on the beach one night. I also met up with my friend Mel who has a music project called Maisie while I was intown. She's uber talented and hoping to write with her in the near future! You can check out her stuff at www.myspace.com/maisieonline . I woke up way to early one morning and walked down to a dock and experimented with some HDR photography, Im no pro but it was fun and I like what came out.

In other news hopefully I will be in LA in the next few weeks recording with one of my best friends Erik Scott Smith who did my full length album. Im looking to maybe get an E.P. done with 3 or 4 songs! Im excited Erik is alot of fun to work with and very talented, he has produced and co wrote most stuff with me and never lets me down! Plus lets me use his small home studio.


Tonight im going to see UP! with my dad, I will let you know how it is. Pixar hasn't let me down thus far

around the town

Went out today and took some photos around Knoxville for some stock photography. Wasn't using these so I thought id post them here. 

The first on a wall of a hispanic grocery store, gotta love the gang graffiti around the Jesus graffiti.

The second was a hotel that everytime I pass I've thought man I have to go take some photos of that! If your a director you should shoot a horror film there, You get a erie feeling standing in the parking lot while the sun is shining on you.

Ive gotta get a copy of this film!

This looks to funny to me



Directed by Michelle Lehman, last year’s Tropfest Australia winning film, Marry Me, tells a little love story about “a little girl who likes a little boy and a little boy who likes his BMX bike”. The film was inspired by a true story when director, Michelle, at 5 years of age, would chase Jason Mahooney around the school in a pretend wedding dress (her mother’s nightie).

Hello,hello

Hey boys and girls, christmas is nearing! Elf is on about every other day, no complaints here. I think me and my mom have watched it a few times now. It always makes me go listen to She and Him, Zoey Deschanel's band. Its an amazing record.

I've been spending alot of time at home with close friends and family and working on my solo project. The past 2 weeks I've been writing a new solo EP and plan on recording it this week with a close friend Ben Roberts who's in town from the studio he works at in New Orleans. Im very excited to finally get a few new songs out there for you all who bought my full length record. I think I've got alot more to say these days so hopefully it will poke through. 

Me and my brother have also been going to the gym alot. My muscles haven't been sore since I was a freshman in high school playing sports. Ya I played sports till I picked up at guitar at 16. Its funny my 18 year old brother can lift about double what I can but for some reason I still like to believe if we fought I could take him haha. I may be fooling myself.

hope everyone is having a lovely december!
