So today, Bruce, Chris and I toured around Seattle. I guess we went shopping; we couldn't bring ourselfs to say that. We went looking for work clothes and hardware. A few times while we were driving, Bruce fell asleep so Chris and I chatted. He's a nice guy. He definatly likes Bruce. I'm not sure why he gave Bruce the let's just be friends speach. It may be because of the uncertainty in his life. His ex is still living with him, he doesn't have a stable job, he's going deaf.

The deaf part is kind of interesting. His treble is gone and so is most of the midrange, but he can still hear bass. As a result most of the people he hangs around have deep voices. He wears very large hearing aids.

He's about 40yo, but acts like he's 25. He loves snow and skate boarding. Also he sometimes talks like a surfer dude.

He said he moved to Seattle because we wanted a well grounded, more stable life. He's spent his life doing artist/acting kind of things-- always on the verge of something great, but always ending up with the short end of the stick. Now he just wants a life without having to worry where the next dollar will come from.
