AND I DONT HAVE TO COME HOME TO LA haHA!

Oakland 4ever

Just kidding, I couldn't resist. You're writing a book for god's sake, and I'm just gonna go be a white boy in somewhere different for a little bit.

Wrote a book. Now I have to edit a book. Much less fun.

I actually really like Oakland. I shot a wedding there like a decade ago; the couple lived like a block from Fruitvale Station.

klein, what do you do for a living? What occupations have you had in the past? I thought you were a sound engineer, but you have such a wide variety of interests that I'm not sure.

I am a sound mixer. I have an engineering degree, and have worked in a profession where one must be licensed to be an engineer. Sound mixing is not engineering.

I will charitably call anything I've made enough money at to declare on my taxes an "occupation." In no particular order, I have been:

- a convenience store clerk

- a toystore cashier

- a bookstore cashier

- a club mixer

- an architectural consultant

- an audiovisual systems designer

- a motion picture editor

- a screenwriter

- a photographer

I would love to write novels for a living but it isn't up to me.

For a year or so, I was a baker. :)

Yo, just wanted to note that I saw your PM and tried to send a response, but keep getting a 502 error, even though I can post everywhere else just fine.

mk-wan-kanobi, you're my only hope!

I believe that this bug has been squashed. Let me know if you find otherwise.

Thanks!

It works, I tried it again last night!

Oh my. I am afk.

I'll get to the bottom of it once I return.

Sorry about that eightbit-leia!

Happened to me too. I can send new message, but not reply.

Cool I also feel it was rather rambly. After the fact too I realized I lied. I have two "can I do this/can you help me figure out how?" ideas - one of which is just the metrics i mentioned. Anyway, thanks, and PM me when they fix it I guess haha.

Sometimes I wonder if the underscores in my username mess with Hubski. Probably not - though, did anyone else ever see mute notifications on comments in threads where the you weren't muted by the poster or the commenter?

An autobiography is in order after the resounding success of the book ;)

Ah, my bad. I just read that, too.

I really like Fruitvale, but I hardly ever have a reason to go down there, besides beignets. I should do that this weekend.
