Start the day off right [wrong?]

Ever wanted to know what it's like to be smashed at 7 a.m. without sacraficing the most important meal of the day (breakfast)? Well, with BAKON Vodka, you can have the best of both worlds!

Personally, I would never want to be intoxicated off of this stuff but I know many who would! I mean, the website makes it seem so....delectable?

"No tinge or burn on the tongue, no obnoxious smoky or chemical flavors, just a clean refreshing potato vodka with delicious savory bacon flavor.
Pure. Refreshing. Bacon."

I'm expecting that dog from the Beggin' Strips commercials to bust through a wall for this stuff. Bacon, bacon, bacon, it's BACONNNNNNNN!

life, man

i am happy for everything i have and everything i don't have and everything i will have. summer is officially here loud and proud. the heat, well we can do without that but summer nights are where it's at. maybe i'm getting too excited for it but you should be allowed to get excited about things.

sephora is sending me to las vegas in three weeks for training. i'm ecstatic but anxious...a little nervous too. alex, who also happens to have the same birthday as me, is going too! i love that girl, she is full of shits and giggles.

my brothers and i are going ghosthunting before i go to vegas. our neighborhood friends and whoever else wants to join will be in for something else. i think we are planning on going to evergreen cemetary, bisbee, tombstone, and agua caliente park. speaking of agua caliente, that place sends chills through my blood. every time my friends and i have tried to explore that park at night, we never get further than past the front gate.

everything you wanted to know about silence

A new glassJaw album soon, please?

Today and yesterday consisted of a LOT of packing, moving, & breakin' backs/smashing fingers. Thanks to help from some strong boys, I'm finally all moved out of the house near campus, or I guess some would call it a casita. The only thing I will miss about it is the fireplace during the winter and the 2 minute walk to The Taco Shop Co. right around the corner.

Lately I've been in touch with some old friends. It's been nice so far. It makes me happy when a friendship feels like you haven't skipped a beat at all, even if you haven't spoken or hung out in years. We're a little older, a little more mature, maybe even a little more wiser (?), but we still laugh about stupid things and I love that.

I can't wait for summer adventures...

ghost hunting trips, picnics, exploring, last minute road trips, picture-taking, food-devouring, late-night delirium, summer love even? Whoooooo knows? That's the fun of it my dear.

This is a perfect day for bananafish.

Last night, I went to see "Angels and Demons" with a friend. It was eh.

Fun fact: my dad went to seminary school back in Vietnam to become a Catholic priest. He went through years of the schooling/discipline and was about a month away from being ordained when he dropped out. His parents were not happy.

Now it's cloudy and raining outside for the first time in months and I'm perfectly content. I ordered a huge pizza for all of us. They love it. That pizza used to be a part of a weekly routine for the high school years: school gets out early on Monday, we would go thrifting, we would get hungry so we would eat at Brooklyn's or Magpies. I told my youngest brother he needs to taste the pizza straight out of the oven. Nothing's the same if it isn't fresh out the oven. I'm supposed to be packing and moving out of the cozy, kind of old house near the University and back home for the summer, to save money. Instead, we're chowing down on pizza and getting full.

There is a Michael Jackson vs. Prince night at Club Congress tonight. I'm obligated to go as the DD. It is nice to be sure my friends get home safe but taking care of drunks, driving home dead-tired when the sun rises, and being around drugs isn't what I want my life to be. People do what they please and I'm not judgmental but I'm just glad I'm drug-free and not an alcoholic. It's just a choice I made, not something I throw in people's faces. But now is a crucial time where I need positive people in my life because it's crunch time.

I can spend hours looking at http://ffffound.com/. Whenever I'm uninspired/lacking motivation, I go here.













paint that shit gold

Adin de Masi, where are my collages/paintings from my sophomore year art class? You have them, I know it. Your tattooed arms and full beard don't scare me, I want them back :( Not because they're worth any money or have any artistic value, because they probably don't, I just like looking back at things I've made in the past when I will be older.



Travis Louie, can you paint my nightmares for me?

Can you make sure there's an extra dose of wtf?

Romy and Michele's High School Reunion

...is so bad it was good.

Anyways, it makes me happy seeing all of these great music-makers I used to listen to reuniting. The Get-Up Kids, No Doubt, Coalesce, Blink 182, etc. Is everyone reverting back to their past to escape the b.s. of now (like what crap is Hollywood Undead and Asher Roth)? There's still a lot of good music coming out now but I like the idea of revisiting the music I had to buy from Toxic Ranch or Sam Goody on the weekends ;) I say that jokingly but you know you do that evil deed -late at night- when there's nothing else to do. You know what I'm talking about...





Downloading that high quality......











music....... What did you think I was talking about? Get your brain out of the gutter :)
