the village buzz

this is noah thomas quevedo. it seems like us ruiz kids wait a long time before doing things that most people rush into.. settling down, growing up, and reproducing. with all three of us finally settled down, it was a race to see who would be the first to deliver the first offspring to my parents. most of my parents’ friends were grandparents 20 years ago or so, so the pressure was really on. leave it to my sister (dominique) to finally be the one to deliver the goods. i think most of the time i spent with noah, he was just confused. this big giant beaner comes into town, looking like his mom, but with a five o’clock (or 3,000 mile) shadow. he put up with it without too much fuss. i rolled into long beach LATE at night, and i wanted to roust him out of bed.. but my sister said.. “you wake my baby, and i’ll kill you..” so i saw him the next morning..

unrelated stuff…

my good friend cathryn beeks (at one time, when i was a polygamist, she, along with the great courtney baker, the little yellow haired chickie baby, and vandrinkula were all my wives) has released a new album. i listened to it all across the us.. it’s a great album..
