here we go!

The last time I wrote in here, it was the day I’d finalized my decision that California was no longer for me.  Being back in Michigan now for almost 8 months, I miss a lot about California.  Oddly enough, I miss the drivers the most.  Going 25 mph on major streets has become infuriating.  At least let me go 35, so then I can comfortable speed at 45.  I also miss In n Out and the Durrant family.

 

But Michigan has its perks.  It obviously has them, or else I wouldn’t have driven like a mad man across 8 states….8 of the biggest and longest states in the Continental US.  I was pulling a trailer, in a Malibu, that had 55mph warning signs on the wheel wells, so I could see them in my rear view mirror, but ignored them constantly.  I think I averaged about 78 mph the entire trip home.  Damn Illinois and California (the two blue states I had to drive through, they have 55 mph speed limits for cars with trailers).

 

I’m going to leave opinion out here, and just list out my life:

 

I have a job.  It pays well, more than I’ve ever made hourly, but no option for overtime.

I have a girlfriend.

I have a puppy.

I have a house to call my home.  As in, I freakin’ bought it.

I have a car that runs, and usually starts on the first turn over.

I have incredibly talented friends.

I haven’t used my talents in a long time.

 

 

And here are the opinions:

 

I am a professional whipping boy at work.  People call into me and yell, and I get paid to take it.

My girlfriend is gorgeous and makes me happy.

A puppy can suck the life out of you, disappointment after disappointment, and no time to yourself.  But he’s so damn cute.

My house is going to be a lot of work this summer.  Painting, new roof, gutters, sheesh!

My cars AC/heat only works on full blast, but the windows roll down. 

I can’t say enough about how talented my friends are.  Visionaries and Audionaries.

I need to start making music videos again.  Even if the song already has a music video.

 

 

 

I miss Ozma.

it took me a year, but i've figured out what's important.  I really always knew, just admitting to it is hard and means the end of a lifestyle that i've come to resent, yet feel tied to.

Dog Problems

I just went on vacation back home.  That sounds backwards. 

I got to see a lot of familiar faces and catch up with a lot of very important people.  Some important people have moved away like I have, hopefully we are brought back together at some point.

I hate flying.  It's very cramped.  I also hate boating.  Doesn't seem right.  I went fishing on the lake michigan ocean one day and got very upset.  I had a bad "tude" cause I ate fast food tater tots before going on the boat.  It was wavy, very wavy, and we pulled 10 knots.  Caught a lot of baby perch, 5 keepers.


The beach is glorious and treacherous.  wonderfully things happen on both sides, but one side brings good memories, and the other bad.  location remembrance syndrome.


All in all, it was a great escape, but now it's back to real life, where I'm at.  Gotta get to work.  Figure out what's important.



Long plane rides force me to discover new golden nuggets of greatness in music.  Here's the one I discovered on the flight back:

The Format - "Dog Problems" - 01:31 through 02:32


" I'm at a loss
You were my tangerine
My pussycat, my trampoline
Now all's I get are wincing cheeks
And dog problems
I signed a lease
Thinking my heart belonged
at 93rd and park
Instead I broke a girls heart
And flew back to Phoenix
to finish the year as it started

Can you hear me?
Are you listening?
This is the sound of my heart breaking
And I hope it's entertaining
Cause for me
it's a bitch "


maybe cause it applies, or cause it is really really catchy.  Or cause the video is sweet.

Head Trip in Every Key

Pirates are not cool.  Neither are Ninjas.  Pirates plunder and steal, and Ninjas stab people in the back.

The Pirates of today...... The Federal Reserve, and the Ninjas of today....the Representive branch of the US government.  Raping the little people of their earnings, and running for office on false promises.

If you've got 45 minutes, or 5, watch this: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=3051024550497129264&hl=en

If you get bored, then scroll to the 30 minute mark and watch how we really serve 2 masters.  And if you don't believe in God, they you'll see how you serve 1 master.  His name is: Debt.

 

does this picture mean anything to anyone?  Are you ready for the Amero?

My father and his best friend came out to visit me this past weekend. 
They delivered to me a 2001 Chevy Malibu.  It's a nice little car, and will replace the Cutlass with no hesitation.  We did various things:
Ate at a Korean Barbeque, drove to Orange County, took the Malibu to Malibu, and went to the Getty Center.

The Getty Center is architectural sound.  It overlooks LA, south of the Hill LA. 
The building is more amazing than the art inside.  I really want to play paintball there. 

Here are some pictures:

I'm full of irrational fears, but damnit I'm pissed of.    Lets make things better.
