The Return of A.B. TV
Just over a year ago I started a YouTube series called A.B. TV.
At that time my colleague, Cody Pulliam, helped me film and edit them.
It was pretty fancy.
I even had a clip mic attached beneath my jacket. (Cody don't play.)
I've wanted to continue the process on my own but I never felt I could do the quality of those justice.
Then I had a thought... Fuck it!
The entire idea of A.B. TV is to dive into the inner beings of my head box and share my thoughts and feels in attempts to build a community... A collective if you will that can learn from each other.
So A.B. TV is fucking back.
It's simple yet genuine and it will continue to evolve into whatever I so choose.
Art is about pure intent not the quality of the content.
Quality is debatable but pure intent is felt.
If you get that then you'll get where I'm going with this and if not... Well it's not for everyone.
With all that said I would love to hear your thoughts. Leave some comments.
P.S. Martha apologizes for missing the debut, but she'll return soon she was stuck on camera crew this go round.
Happy Monday Sleepwalkers
Happy Summer Solstice
May your days be long and the nights be longer.
Be outside, float down rivers, climb up mountains, and do lots of camping.
Rejuvinate in the heat and don't forget to drink lots of water.
Happy Friday Sleepwalkers!

Mt Hood National Forest
I went to Mt Hood National Forest last weekend for my friends' Jackie and Eric's birthday.
I have wanted to dive into that region of Oregon as far back as 3 years before moving to Oregon.
The forest is absolutely divine.
It's really easy to forget who you are, even more so where you are.
Also it was only just over an hour drive from Portland. That's so close!
It feels so healthy and alive out there.
The air is crisp.
The plants are 50 shades of green.
There are great fallen trees who give to baby ferns and moss a solid back to grow on.
I have never truly felt more at home until that moment.
It was a magic I've only seen in my head that feels so wonderfully familiar again.
Good Day Sleepwalkers
Go Places. Do Stuff. Sing Songs. Well... That's a good start!

Some Stuff and Things
Life...
I was rehired to Starbucks on Tuesday.
This store is just a cafe without a drive thru which is nice, but I'm still looking to work for a local shop of some sort.
I'm not a fan of working for Starbucks but the I do like my current coworkers and the work is easy. Thank you Tracy.
Also I've been working on and off the last few months at going through old notebooks and gathering stuff to compile a new book and/or books.
Not sure what angle I'm going for just yet, but it's all simmering in the brain box over and over and over again.
I saw the most fiery flower yesterday.
This last weekend I started cleaning up my backyard which is like a time capsule of weeds and stuff of my landlords that has just been left to the elements. It's a new adventure every time I go exploring.
I found a bunch of square tiles I've been painting. I think once I get a healthy stash of them I'll sell them for $20 each. In the mean time I'm just going to keep gifting them to people because that's just as fun.
So yeah life is alright. I'm making money ever so slowly again. Things are going to be fine. Money is just another exchange of energy. She should not be feared.
Until another time.
Be Free Fellow Earthlings. Be Free!
