when i first got back to las vegas i spent a lot of time photographing light moving around rooms.  my old house was a new space to me again and i didn't really know what i was doing there. the light was really spectacular though, causing prisms and crazy beams to project on the walls.  i really liked it.  then i got curtains and i haven't noticed any cool things like that happening for a long time. 
this was taken while i was on the phone with stephen steinbrink when jennifer and i were driving all of my stuff from austin to las vegas in a moving truck.  i had pulled off the road i think to make the phonecall then i took this picture.
i don't know when i took this or why i had that written on my arm because i know i was in austin at the time.  but i do know where the phrase "cute rat" originated from...  when i lived in chicago, jennifer ianni came to visit me and as we were driving down the street we passed a liquor store called Cut Rate Liquours and jennifer said "Oh!  i thought that said CUTE RAT!"  i remember thinking that was the funniest thing ever and would be the best name for a liquor store without a doubt!
