Black Friday

sucks balls when you’re broke . I want nothing more than to go blow a few hundred dollars on myself right now. In reality I have about $200 and I owe my old lady $125 which leaves me with a whopping $75! Something tells me I should keeo it too rather than spend it. It is really burning a hole in my pocket… or something. If I was a nice person I would probably spend it on some gifts for friends or family.

Holidays are always such a bummer. I hate that I am always broke starting October and then never recoup till around February. You’d think that after three years of this happening one would notice a pattern and begin to prepare for such things. I think next year I will get it right.

The rain is gone and my neck is all fucked up because I slept on it in some horrible position. I dont know what happened but it hurts like a bastard and I’ve been awake since 7:00 am. Lots of bourbon but no money. My brain hurts and I want to listen to Led Zeppelin while sucking on ham bones and turkey necks with my ankles shackled to the sofa while watching a Mork and Mindy marathon wishing it would all just catch fire and get on with itself already.

I will now eat some leftovers and watch a Forensic Files marathon 😛

Last Ludwig

Fall 08 Ludwig flannels are the bomb. I finally found a shop with some still in stock. These things are ruthlessly pimp. The fabric, the cut, the buttons… I mean everything about these flannels is the way it should be. I recently scored the red one. Once I get some more loot I will score the grey one to have the ultimate flannel trifecta. By then Ludwig will probably have new flannels, but I wouldn’t know since there site is outdated andf I have yet to hear about a winter look book (unlike mishka who’s got me all ready to buy to some winter shit ~ awesome winter look book!)

It’s World Toilet Day!

So let’s all take a big poo! Seriously it’s one of those things we ALL do. Although we may not all use actual toilets. Every human must excrete so let’s all come together on this day and drop a mega deuce.

everybody poops

I just bit my tongue

I do it often. Ouch. I feel painting or something coming soon. I always paint and make stuff when I’m broke (usually around fall/winter) in some sad hope that some random person would buy one or something. It’s kind of funny and it makes me laugh at myself. That is really the worst reason to do anything. Reality is nobody buys anything (okay, I sold a few) and it sits in my room taking up space making the place look cluttered. I’m okay with it at, the end I enjoy painting and it would be really weird if I could harvest my paintings and turn them into cash! Continue reading “I just bit my tongue”

My Bon Jovi Friday

Has sucked so far. I walked into the office today at work and it was one of those insane deadline days. I pretty much sat down and worked till noon, took a break and worked till four… right trough lunch and bounced at fo’ thirty.

I was insanely busy the ENTIRE time. I sort of liked it. It made the day go by super fast but now I’m depleted and super hungry. I’m thinking Chipotle, I love that stuff. Then yogurtland booosh!

Food is awesome. What isn’t is logging in to your site to see you have 10 new comments and have than all be spam. They bum rushed my home page. For a split second I was super stoked (10!) but no. Time for akismet… vile spammers.

Mo Pumpkins

Here are the other pumpkins I made for the Halloween party at my Mom’s house. I got the patterns as well as a really nice carving set from Zombie Pumpkins. Great things going on over there.

Thank you!!

So I’ve been looking at my stats and I have 42% more visitors than usual… and some kook is still using Internet Explorer 6 to view my site. IE6 is poop as is IE7, go and get yourself a real browser.

Either way it’s cool to see more people peeping the bloggy. I will be trying to conjure up better content as time goes by, and who knows maybe even something that may prove itself useful at some point in time.

Mucho Amor,

Ivan Ives & Fresh Video

Awesome video from the homies over at NoThresholdRecords.com. Snappy bassline, great raps and cool animations! You really can’t go wrong with this (or any of the NTR videos they are all top notch, this is the first animated one though).

A few changes

I’ve added gravatar support as well as the old share this button at the bottom of every post. I added little icons to the sidebar links and cleaned a ton of poorly written css from the theme, there is still a bunch of bad code tho. Funny how much changes over the course of a year.

Creature Carving

I carved up a Creature pumpkin, it took a few hours to do and I did it with a shitty steak knife. Unfortunately it died a shriveled, moldy death just a few days later. I purchased some proper carving utensils so I’m going to give it another go in a few days. I am also doing a Frankie and Drac so yeah.

Oh yeah and just for you Conor, comments are open.

My pumpkin weighs a ton

My favorite new flannel

So I recently purchased a nice flannel from the unsteady shop here in downtown.

It’s been hot as balls but I still wear it in the mornings. I cannot wait for winter.

LUDWIG BETCHES!
