I met my friend Tom in midtown Manhattan this morning at Speedy’s cafe. To plan our monthly comedy variety show. Called Major Babe Time. The cafe could be called Speedy’s because the quick food service. Or because maybe the place is owned by Speedy Gonzalez. The tiny cartoon mouse known for being “The fastest mouse in all of Mexico.” During […]
I captured one second of video a day from 3/17/13-3/17/14. Today, March 17, 2014 was the end of year two of my one second a day for a year video. Year two begins with a video of me, my cousins and sister celebrating St. Patrick’s day on Staten Island. I cannot believe this day is […]
I spent last week in California with my high school friend Katt. We spent three nights in San Francisco. Three nights in LA. And two nights in San Diego. We rented a car and drove along route 1 which is a windy road on the mountainside with beautiful views of the Pacific Ocean. On this […]
Today I woke up and looked in the mirror. Am I still sleeping, having a nightmare, and looking at the monster from that nightmare? I thought to myself about myself.

9 months ago, I watched Cesar Kuriyama’s “1 Second Everyday” video. It inspired me and changed my life. In his 30th year of life, Cesar took a year off work and filmed one second of every day for a year. He put the seconds together in a sequence. Some good moments, some bad. The result […]

Yesterday was Sunday, December 4, 2011. I awoke at 7:55am. Got dressed in exercise clothes. Discovered sweaters and screens drying in the bath tub. Had a cleaning woman broken into and cleaned our house? I left the house with my mother. Headed on a coffee run. My mother was surprised to see presents in the […]
