a little bit of goodness

sadly, a blurry photo of my lunch today at little poca cosa...

ok. there's this small restaurant in tucson called little poca cosa, sister to the bigger restuarant poca cosa - both have wicked food. poca cosa is fancy traditional mexican food, little poca cosa is more casual and only open during the day and plays loud music and they give out hugs and have a menu on the chalkboard. i have only been there a couple times, i think, but love it. they have an option there where they pick what you eat - i go for that and a lemonade...today was three types of fancy tacos and tortillas and beans and as an added thing, i ordered a bit of horchata. so great...and i bought a new little poca cosa t-shirt..i had too. they also give a lot of money to charity through their tips and t-shirt sales so...i had a conversation with the woman who owns and runs it - her sister owns and runs poca cosa - and she wants to move to vancouver - loves it there....really, loves it...i got extra hugs today because i was from vancouver...nice.
after lunch we went to epic, a coffee shop here and had a little relax and unlike last time, they, too, had the right size t-shirt for me....the last couple times i have gone there i have been shut-out. good coffee there too...
we also went to a new art gallery that is having a huge andy warhol show or photos of andy when he was in tucson in 1968 shooting a movie at old tucson studios. the photos have never been seen before and are being printed just for the show and it's, apparently, a very big deal. people from all over the states are coming to see the show and have already put down some serious cash to buy the photos, which are - depending on the photos and size - are being produced in editions of 5 to 50 copies and range from 2500 bux to 6000 bux...there's also a book being made for the show which will travel to new york after the tucson show. man, if i had a few bucks i'd be buying one and hoping....a guy could make a few bucks off this show, and as much as i'm not an andy fan, the photos are very cool.
we then trucked around a bit, saw some more shit - including a store called plaza liquor that has more brands of tequila than i've ever seen. i bought corie a bottle there before, went to a local toy store the garbs wants me to buy him some ugly toys at (garbs e.mail me let me know what's what....) and then we were off to a function - a book launch - at the university of arizona for a book that spike had done the front cover for...
a nice day out...now a little relax and dinner with spike's folks. then the night's olympic viewing...

rock on.
