I'm an animal just like you.

I am really behind on keeping things updated on here. Here are some photos from my times in Chicago, Minneapolis, Denver (where I saw Arctic Monkeys and visit with my longtime friend Kelsey and her adorable cat Laika), Lawrence and St. Louis, where I spent time with old friends and made some new ones along the way. Got to see and hang out with my favorite monks, Foals. 

This is just a scratch on the surface of some of the photos I took. Sadly, I did lose my disposable camera somewhere along the way, at least I had only taken like 5 photos on it but still...it's always sad when you lose a roll. 


more photos soon from all my adventuring...

don't call this a comeback (no, really don't)

I've been neglecting this blog for too long. My life went from kind of weird, kind of crazy to insanity in just a matter of a couple months. I don't even think insane can even begin to describe my life at the moment or since I've last posted on here. I feel like a complete different person. As if I weren't neurotic enough before, I am Woody Allen on crack. Yes, Woody Allen on crack, which makes me a fucking annoying person to be around. Let's see I've become cafe manager at B&N and that's been interesting and since that wasn't enough, let's throw the fact I thought it would be a good idea to get a second job at Sephora clocking me in anywhere from 45 hours a week to 60. And somehow fitting in shooting? Shooting stuff that I haven't posted...going through and editing photos from back in AUGUST. 

What is sleep and what is a weekend? And when I finally had 3 days off IN A ROW from BOTH jobs, that was shot to shit and I did fuck all, to which I am now paying for severely. Scrambling to catch up on things during times I should try to catch an hour or two of sleep so I don't lose what's left of my mind. I mean, I really shouldn't complain though, right? I am employed, I have a roof over my head, I am living comfortably, I am just being another ungrateful American. But hell if I am not tired and can't wait to return to somewhat of a normal state of mind after the holidays. At least everything won't seem SO intense and SO dramatic. I go from one end of the emotional spectrum to the next in 10 seconds, no, 5 seconds or less. Basically, I am what some people may call an emotional wreck, a ticking time bomb. I've done a good job at neglecting my family members, my friends or at least the two that I had and/or generally just pissing off everyone because you never know what mood I am going to be in that day. Feels SO different from summer where everything was so chill, even fall was rather chill...I am hoping that it's just the holidays and the workload I've taken on and things will make some sort of sense soon. I would like to unpack my room just to pack back up in May again. I would like to have a social life. I would like to sleep and not be so erratic. Maybe actually email my friends back in a sensibly amount of time and not 2 months later. There is always that catch 22. If you email too long after the fact you're an asshole, if you don't email at all you're an even bigger asshole. Anyways, this is my major rant post. I haven't done one of these for a while. I hope to do more of them, typos, grammatical errors and ALL! 

Hopefully, on my downtime that I should be using to sleep, I shall get my photos organized to post here. And get back to a semi-regular posting schedule. I have missed posting on here and wonder if anyone still checks to see if there is an update. 

Until next time, dig on this song I can't stop listening to at the moment by Cat Power. I mean I could kick myself for getting into her new album so late and missing her and my mates X-Ray Eyeballs play in Chicago.



"I feel tired
Awake all night
Head so heavy like a wastebasket
I feel choke emotionally broke
In the gutter and I'm still lookin down
I feel alone I want out I want on my own
I want everything I own I find letters pictures
Memories of what you can't seem to let go"

love at first sight

So, I'm a mother again! I wasn't sure when I would be ready to have a another dog again after the passing of my love last April but these past few months I've been really wanting to have a dog again. I miss having a little companion. He already gets on with everyone in the house and just all around freaking adorable. 

His name is a Atticus Withnail Jackson (do I really need to explain the reasoning behind his name? If you know me well enough you know...). 

He's a pure bred miniature australian shepherd and I'm in love. I am so lucky that I was able to make the drive out to get him after work today. It was well worth the hour or so drive with traffic and construction to get him. And for a price I couldn't resist... It was so hard to pick from the lot the owner had of these pups but this one was special and I knew he was the one when I was holding him and talking to the owner and he just fell asleep in my arms.

So far his likes to go for runs, listen to Fiona Apple and watch Wes Anderson films...I mean, like DUH.  Why wouldn't he like the things I like?

 those eyezzz! I bet he can glamour/compel* people if he wanted to...
(*true blood and/or vampire diaries reference which ever you prefer...)
He was really into 'Fantastic Mr. Fox' tonight. I think he might be my new movie, ehem, I mean film watching buddy. I just hope this doesn't give him any ideas to escape from his janky tote bed I made him this evening.

Remember that time I was an extra in The Lost Boys?
(btw, looking possessed is SO in right now.)

Also, let's take a moment to appreciate this glorious saxophone playing.
