‘Til the wheels fall off …

I apologize for the abrupt disappearance. I’m still not completely sure what I’m doing with this blog, but I do get the itch to post here every once in awhile, and I figure I can do that even while I try to figure it all out.

For those of you that didn’t hear, I didn’t get accepted to McGill, and that’s put a serious crimp in my style. I feel a bit adrift. I’ll figure something out yet, I’m sure.

Anyway, the following are pictures I took while visiting my mom in Port Townsend over Mother’s Day weekend. I hope you enjoy them.

I promise I won’t pull any more stunts, at least for awhile.

Thank you all for your support. 🙂

Welcome back!

Sorry to hear about McGill, but Canada has several other lovely universities if you’re interested 🙂

Also, I’ve always wondered: What does your name mean? I’ve never heard of it before!

My father was on a vision quest in the 60s, and he was meditating on a mountain in the Sierra-Nevada mountain range (he had been living in San Fransisco around that time; Haight Street et al). After meditation and fasting which lasted some days, he had a conversation with a cloud. The cloud told him my name, how to spell it and pronounce it. In the 70s, my dad traveled around, mostly through Mexico, and wrote his travel journals, which he called “The Journals of Ahniwa Dawn”. When I was born, in 1980, he realized that the name had been meant for me. And so, my name became Ahniwa Dawn Ferrari. Perhaps the most unusual name ever (for an American white boy).

Literally, it doesn’t mean anything. He used to tell me that it meant “Man of Peace”. I’m okay with that.

I think it’s a kick ass name! I thought it was Hindi or something until I saw your picture.

Much more interesting than “Karla Cecilia” at any rate.

My friend named his son Benjy Rainbow, so maybe you got off a little easy in the middle name department? 🙂

I love the fact that we have “Man of Peace,” (Ahniwa) and “God,” (Theo) living in the same house with some guy named Tim.

THAT would make a comic strip.

It would start with a guy who had doves flying around him, his eyes were yin and yang, and he emanated some mystical energy, saying, “Hello, my name is Ahniwa, and I am the incarnation of peace.”

Then you’d have a tall guy, slender, with white robes and a laurel crown floating above his head. “My name’s Theo. I’m God. Yeah, you heard me.”

Then a guy in a button up shirt and jeans, with an orange cat curled up at his feet. “My name’s Tim. Ummmm, I like playing Counterstrike and I work at Starbucks.”

Then zoom out to a shot of all four in the living room, doing their respective things, overlaid with a fancy “La Casa!” text.

Yeah …

But then, I seem to remember we had a strip once, about us … what ever happened to that, eh Theo!?
