My apartment is looking very girlie here. I am thinking that some of her clothes and shoes can be used to decorate my apartment. Those colours really go well with my books.

I am sitting the in Bean Around the World, on Marine Drive, West Vancouver. We seem to be getting a little bit of summery days during the first few weeks of Fall, and I think it would be such a waste if I stay in my studio. Here I can tune out, and tune in to get some writing done. Bean Around the World, sells very good coffee, which is roasted right here on the North shore. It is far superior to Starbucks coffee ( any coffee is ) in terms of taste, color, aroma and flavor. Bean coffee is the best place to be early in the morning, the place is packed with people, staff are so friendly and laid back. I hardly ever seen an unhappy face on the people working here.

I often try not to anchor here with my laptop and use this spot as my work space. These guys get a lot of walking traffic and it wouldn’t be fair to occupy their seats, although the traffic seems to be a bit slower around afternoon, so I think it should be fine if I spend a couple of hours here to switch on my creative side, get some work done, while I do some people watching.

For the first time I am actually enjoying working in absolute silence. I am sitting in my office and I hear nothing but an occasional car passing by in the back alley. Amble Side beach ocean looks calm, blue and peaceful from my window, and I am slowly going through my to-do list for the day.

Every line that I cross out gives me a pinch sense of accomplishment. Juggling multiple projects for the past 6 weeks, I could really appreciate a moment of peace like this, which reminds me I could do with a nice cup of coffee and a granola bar from Capers. Hell it’s already 12:23 and lunch time!

My Girlfriend has just launched an online vintage and Swing fashion clothing store. I have been having such a great time doing some photo shoots for her. Check it out here: www.SwingCandy.com

I think it is a great looking store, and she does carry pretty high quality items too.

I didn’t go to the Showboat Swing at Kitsilano yesterday. I don’t think if it ever happened because of the bad weather. Now I am getting the withdrawal symptoms! Damn it! I need to watch some follows swivel, jump and jive.
