Goddam, I feel fucking spectacular. Day four, no more smoking. My senses of smell and taste are a hundred times better already, and no coughing in the mornings. Tons of energy. To take my mind off of the void that formed, I've been getting up into the mountains and hiking like crazy, and cleaning. Tonight will be the first night I'll be drinking since I...

Damn it's nice to sleep in my own bed again. The drive back was nothing; I can't believe it went by so fast. I missed the tornado in Limon by roughly twenty minutes, and got sunburned along the left side of my body, but otherwise remain unscathed. It's also awesome having a functioning vehicle again.

My stay was out of control. My liver is fucking...

yes, yes, way too much driving. i'd like to eventually get everything down to a ten mile radius but we'll see if that actually happens.

unfortunately i have no internet now, but i do have mtv and i'm quite afraid my brain will be completely fried before i get back to school or finally get the internet. unfortunately.

Ah, the old familiar bed. That first nights sleep back is always the best.

Wow. Being back home is strange as hell. Everyone and everything I know here is aging, though aging well. The heat has been far beyond what one might call oppressive; it has been giving me nightmares about burning alive. Aside from that, its been an amazing time so far. I got to see the ocean for the first time in four years, and I don't...

Someone tell me again why I thought it was a good idea to go out drinking until four hours before I have to get up for work? It's cool, though. Only two more working days until I'm officially getiing paid to go on a roadtrip. A bit of a shadow is cast over the whole thing now, as my sister's ex, also a cook where...

Godspeed! Enjoy the road.

Make tragedy into art.

The things we mean to and don't say to others are the real ghosts that come to haunt us in the night.

I'm way too exhausted and fuzzy headed for a real update. Bad Ryan! No going out on work nights! Tomorrow, however, I will be rambling in excess. I do have to comment on the beauty of a good thunderstorm, though. It was awesome!

Edit:
Only a few more days! Can't wait to be on the road! biggrin biggrin biggrin

Sheesh...my friends are really good at putting themselves in really bad spots. It's kind of like watching the simpsons episode where Lisa did the Bart/hamster experiment, and Bart kept grabbing the electrified cupcake. whatever
Oh well, live and learn (eventually, I hope). This week's been good, overall. I finished my backlog of books that built up last semester, and need something to read again. Also need...

Casa Bonita was great..you guys and gals rock! biggrin
I ended up staying awake until nearly five playing music, reading and reflecting on the fact that my summer's almost over. Not, however, before my trip back east. I'm looking foward to spending time in the Appalacias and in the ocean, and getting into lots of trouble with the rva crew. GOt to go to work soon,...

I'm rested for the first time in a couple of weeks. To much damn drinking 'till sunup. We ran out of alchohol earlier than expected on the 4th, and were forced to purchase gratuitous amounts of 3.2 beer at Safeway. Foul, foul shit.

Only two more weeks until my goddam vacation..woot! A friend and I are driving back east for a couple of weeks for...

when i was really little like 5 or so. my uncle took me to a reptile show and, you could take your picture with a 15 ft boa consricter. i was really afraid to do it anyways. any i started to cry when it was rapped around me, then it started to consrict me.and i started crying more and all the reptile guys had to pry it off me, and feed it. but i remember it being a lot worse than it probably was. smile

Nearly a week of rain. That's unheard of here, from what I can tell. The ground is saturated, and everything's growing like crazy. The city's not faded shag carpet- green anymore! Too much crappy wine last night, my head feels like its been stuffed with cotton. We just sat around drinking and watching Killing Zoe; great flick.

I need something new to read....recommendations?

Yesterday I saw a guy sitting out in front of the restaurant I work in. At his feet, there was a dog. On the dog's back was a saddle, seating one cat. On the cat's back, there were two white mice running around. This isn't a metaphor for anything...this was actually happening. That wins the sureal scene award for my year thus far.

Nothing instills...
