The Diaries of JAR

Good idea or bad idea to reopen my box of diaries from my life? I didn't allow myself to read through them but in some entries I had to .... from the death of an ex-boyfriend to the day I found out Keanu was going to be born with a birth defect. (BAD ENTRIES) but I discovered all my old concert stubs and a tape of my late Grandpa Rivas interviewing Billy and I back in 1983 :) It was good to hear his voice again! Thank god I have a tape player!!! I don't keep a diary anymore but this blog is sort of like one.

Trying to figure out Baby names

I really wanted to name him Thurston Rivas

after Thurston Moore from Sonic Youth.... but Keanu won!!!

The day I met with Keanu's Surgeon before he was born

to prepare me for his plastic reconstructive surgery at 1 month old :(

This is the day that I found out through the ultra sound that Keanu had a Cleft Lip and Cleft Palette :(

Not a good day!!!

I cut this out of a Transworld Skateboard Mag. and I had it tattooed on my right ankle :)

My entry about Sept. 11th 2001

The tape I found 

and this is FUNNY ... I still use the phrase SO BE IT!

This is when I was 22 yrs old living in my first apt.

I was also the Store Manager of Arden B. WOW almost 12 yrs ago!
