Giving Up Would Be Too Easy

now go buy Nakia's product!
Solo effort from Nakia "Playing The Cards" is honestly effing amazing! Please go to www.Nakia.net and take a gander. I was asked to illustrate the album and poster design all of which was layed out by Nakia himself. I'm excited as shit! I'm truely honered to have been asked to participate in this project. Not only is the album great and it looks...well it looks like this flunky (thanks for the nickname dad) did it....but Nakia is one helluva musician and a sweetheart of a man. If you ever see him out buy him a water (hold the ice) and buy his cd.


We're all...playing the cards.

When you take life head on...and you believe in yourself...and you make it happen. Nothing is put before you if you couldn't handle it. You only get one life. Make it count.


or if you're a lady it'll get rid of the hairs on ye toes instead of putting hair on your chest...


you get the idea.


nyquil is taking me away...get outta here monday...you have officially been LATER'D!

you can call me that if you like.


It's sunday night and I had a very eventful/beautiful/emotional weekend. This week offers tons of new challenges along with many breaths of fresh air. I just went to HEB to pick up some Nyquil and nasal strips. I have a bit of a cough because I'm sure someone breathed on me last week while I was working and wanted me to caugh. Probably someone at the HEB on Oltorf and Congress. It's ok though, I'll beat this battle of *insert caughing here* Yucks soon enough. Now the Nasal strips you ask? They're to see if I can sleep better. It was brought to my attention that I stop breathing while I sleep. Not cool...kind of scary. My dad sleeps with a mask to force air into his lungs. His sleeping patterns used to scare the hell outta my mom. Now since I was informed of my sleep state, I've realized thats why I typically wake up groggy even after a good nights rest. I become tired throughout the day and wondered "what the hell for". Now it kind of makes sense. So I bought these little strips that has some adhesive on them that I put on my nose and it is to open my air ways. Kind of exciting you know...like...I might not be tired tomorrow!

*sigh*

So it's my understanding (from my bud Greg) that school started today. That answers my question, " Where the fuck did all these cars come from?". Seriously it was gridlock. Unbeknownst to me...when school is back in session at UT, there is a whole "nuther" population count that comes into the city. something like 75 hundred thousand people sounds about right. With all the overpasses closed due to "the child" or "el nino" winter storms the past few days, everyone hit the streets today. I went to the grocers yesterday to pick up popping corn and then to Hollywood Video and was completely shocked. I had never seen a grocers so barron. I walked in HEB and said "there ain't no damn food up in here!". A lady walking past me heard that and said..." Mmmm Hmmm child, it's baaaad up in this mug". I felt I had a connection with her. More so than the matching house shoes we both had on. I cooked the corn on the stove...and it was nothing short of amazing. My sister and I watched "Little Ms. Sunshine". I think it's the 5th time I've seen it. and i surely could watch it again. Here are some pics... enjoy. OR DON'T. PLEASE BE SAFE ON THE ROADS PEOPLE! SERIOUSLY. LIFE IS TOO PRECIOUS...NOT JUST YOURS BUT OTHERS AS WELL. THERE IS NO RUSH THAT FUCKING IMPORTANT...SLOW DOWN AND ENJOY BEING AROUND.


Someone didn't make it. PLEASE BE SAFE PEOPLE

Matching NANNY LOVERS! so cute, i wanted to pinch both their granny asses. but i digress.

We'll I'm comfortably situated here in Austin. Work is great and been spending plenty time meeting new people and learning new things. I've been painting the past few days...which is fantastic! I had been kind of scatterbrained the past few months creatively and now that I have some deadlines to deal with....it's crunch time again.

I saw snow for the first time since 1985...it's pretty...but not "all that". I once thought I wanted to live up north but after this past week...forget it. Summers are hella hot here but I'll deal with it. seriously, it's not important.
