THE DAY HAD FINALLY COME!!!!

Man after waiting a fucking year it was sooo nice to hang out with Nate, David, Keith, Ruth, Claire, Rico & Brenda again.

Last night found me hanging with a really good friend and favorite SFU geek buddy watching the season premiere. MUCH to my surprise they picked it up at the exact MOMENT that last season left off. Which...

I've been band promo crazy all week. Going nuts trying to get stuff done within the IDIOT STARE universe. But it's been awhile since I've really been able to devote a lot of time to it so it feels kinda good.

The album is shaping up nicely and looks like it will be ready for a Fall release. In the meantime we're playing in Hollywood...

I've been getting in trouble lately for my political views. Actually my views in general I think. Between the torturing of POW's and decapitation of Berg, to starving ethiopian children...I've probably been a little too "voicterous." Funny how a conversation can come to a complete stand still once you've said something that someone doesn't agree with. I would rather you go "you know, I don't...

I'm on a New Model Army kick. And I can't seem to talk about anything BUT New Model Army, so I'm reluctant to do any sorta blog activity (besides MySpace) because I'm afraid of repeating myself AND boring the hell out of anybody.

Funny enough tho is that it's 4:00 in the morning...I'm video editing....and i'm really really drunk.

The wonderful advantage of being freelance....

You wonder what the poor people are doing? Well, last night we scrounged up change so bean could buy smokes, then we sat here watching TV and trying not to be hungry. I'm owed three paychecks at the moment. surreal

Glad the freelancing is treating you well. smile

So I'm married and shit. Oh man whatta trip. It's really weird how things happen just as you've given up on them.
Growing up I always knew I'd get married. I've respected the institution even after watching my mother go through 3 disasters and my father commiting the most heinous of crimes; Beastiality.
(Not really...but his wife is NOT of this species).
By the time...

Congratulations!!!!!
Where are the photos?
shal:
Congrats! It's so great to read a journal entry from someone who is loving life (and just loving) as much as you are right now. smile

Do you guys still go over to Mannequin ever? Bean and I have been meaning to get over there one of these days again, but life's been wonderfully insane. But hey, our office moved to Long Beach, so no more commute.. more time to enjoy life.

HOLY COW it's been forever since I've written. But the move to Long Beach was riddled with problems. Up to and including the bastard who rented the house before me and Talia didn't shut off ONE of his utility accounts, so setting up ANY new service (and I mean ANY...gas, electricity...you name it) was A ROYAL PAIN IN THE ASS. I am still fighting with...

We should go have a drink sometime. Shal agrees.

In process of the big move to the LBC. Should be complete by the 30th. (At least that's when all of my old utilities will be shut off.....).

Still working. Still playing. Still just taking all of this in.

My newest passion (besides that damn radio station) is Feigling Vodka. Man do I love that shit. I think about it...I dream about it. I want...

Hey you!!! How have you been? Pretty busy from what I gather. I hope all is still going great for you! Talk to you later.
bean:
So...are you living in the LBC yet? I really ought to take a break from spending so much time in Hollywood and go out in my own neighborhood a bit more.

Back to the damn grind I suppose. Fantasy vacation is over. But all is still fantastic.

Watched DAWN of the DEAD on DVD a couple of days ago. MAN that movie rocks so damn hard. But I had to turn all the light on afterwards.....fuckin' sissy boy.

I want to see PETER PAN so bad. Read a beautiful review of it on aint it cool...

Hey, man, guess who's a Long Beach resident now? wink Yup, I'm Bean's roommate at the moment.

We should all hang out again sometime. You up for the 80s thing at Que Sera sometime?

I'm proud to say that last Monday I asked my girl to marry me. And to my good fortune she has accepted.

Holy shit I'm engaged!

It was the most wonderful and magical day of my existence...and it...

Looking forward to this Xmas thing. And really really really looking forward to the world just slowing down a little bit. I've been in the middle of so much shit lately...I'm dizzy. But the light at the end of the tunnel seems to be getting brighter and brighter. I really hope I didn't taint anything by saying that.

I hope all of you have a...

*raises hand* I want to come to the party!

I wanna see Return of the King and I will, but I will wait until the crowds are less. There is nothing like going to a crowded movie theater I hate that. Many good movies have been ruined by loud annoying people. I am glad you seem so excited about everything lately. I take it you are feeling better!

So because I'm sick...and because I'm USELESS when I'm sick....I've come to a very important realization:

I DO NOT belong in the kitchen. Last night I almost killed myself trying to make a fucking bowl of soup. The end result was NO SOUP...BROKEN DISHES...and like 2nd DEGREE BURNS on my HAND. I went to bed hungry...uncomfortable...and extremely humilated. Luckily I had a handy dishrag nearby...
