CLH and I got married at the original Aurora Picture Show church and yet, in all our years together and in Houston we’ve never been members. We go to tons of their events and pay full price for each one, and we’ve always talked about joining but just never have.

Until Friday.

All last week I was psyched about going to Soul Nite. I even interviewed the curator. Friday afternoon we decided that instead of paying $10 each for tickets, we’d splurge and finally become members of Aurora. Giving back to the organization that gave us a place to get hitched.

On Saturday we met our scooter club at the Eldorado Ballroom and danced until the curls fell out of my hair.

Speed Street

Want to know how badass Houston was in the 1980s? Check out the film about about our roving gang of prankster roller skaters, the Urban Animals. Last night we went to Aurora Picture Show’s Scoot In event, where they were screening a series of short independent films about wheeled transportation. They showed Speed Street, and while the quality in these YouTube vids is shit, the movie is fucking awesome, with an excellent ’80s soundtrack to boot. We met up with our scooter friends and rode to the screening, at Sesquicentennial Park. It was nice to be back on the Vespa. Even after 3-4 months of her sitting idle in the garage, she started up right away. That was, after I remembered to turn on the ignition. The weather was perfect. Pretty soon it’ll be too hot to ride during the day. Below is another movie they screened, which I though was pretty badass.

And they’ve talked on the phone a handful of times. Oguchi called after Sept. 11 to make sure Otto and her family were safe, and Otto reciprocated after the earthquake and tsunami in Japan a little more than a year ago.

There is no greater happiness for a man than approaching a door at the end of a day knowing someone on the other side of that door is waiting for the sound of his footsteps.

32 years ago at 7:22 a.m. Central Time I was born at Presbyterian Hospital in Oklahoma City. Birthdays on a Wednesday suck. I mean, how to celebrate?
