  • OB Cover Shot (and Inside Pictures) – Looking for Apartments or Houses (Moving this November) – Tijuana Chad is No More

    This is post 395. I’m close to posting 400 entries. Crazy stuff. It has been confirmed. Chad is no longer Tijuana Chad. His stint in this city has come to an end. I’m sure he would still visit. But it will never be the same. The Rumble Fest kids are all married. Well, not technically.…

  • Dead Body Outside the Apartment at Midnight – September Plans – Oaxaca in Exactly One Month (Still Need Bisho Sitter)

    There was a dead body outside my apartment around midnight yesterday. I was about to go to bed after watching somewhat shitty stand-up comedy brought to you by Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias. Two Latinos. Gerry something and Rick something. I couldn’t make it all the way through in either of their specials. Both of them gave…

  • From Tacotopia in Del Mar to Las Pulgas Till 3 AM – A Lot of Tacos, Betting Horse Races, and Hanging Out with Friends – Long Chapter (and No Celebrity)

    ALRIGHTY HERE! It’s fucking 3:23 pm on a Monday. I didn’t do the Sunday word vomit and this one is really late. And no celebrity. No time. First… I did write a Sunday vomit. I wrote it in the trolley before Tacotopia. The plan was to finish it after Tacotopia…. It went something like this.…

    Well….!!! That was a lot of day drinking with el Pinche Brallan. He got here with a 12 pack of Indio beer. I got a shrimp cocktail and mixed two beers in. That was breakfast. We watched Rick & Morty, but didn’t pay attention, and just started catching up. He’s been gone three months. It’s…

    Sorry Bryan. I fell asleep. Bryan’s flight got delayed. I didn’t know how delayed but I assumed it was going to be after midnight. Right before midnight, I couldn’t help it and I fell asleep on the couch holding my phone around my head in case Bryan calls that he got there. I didn’t hear…

    It’s the end of an era. I got a job offer in San Diego that pays bigly. I need to be there for it. I’m moving out of Tijuana. Shit has been getting too crazy. I always wonder, when will it be me? Never been mugged or anything. And I’m always on the lookout for…

  • Tj Violence and Trump’s America (Political Word Vomit) – VIP Tickets to Tacotopia for A Ride to Del Mar (All You Can Eat Tacos and Friends on TV) – Burger Research Continues (Mamut)!

    Ever wake up and go straight to reading Trump’s tweets? No? It’s not a good way to start the day. I’ve done it constantly and then I try to ignore so I don’t word vomit about politics for hours. The US is really polarized in a fucked up manner. Tijuana is fucked up too. Yesterday,…

    Muddy shitty coffee after a slow shitty morning. I couldn’t get out of bed… And I didn’t have coffee. Got an email about not getting a job that I don’t even remember applying too.

    It’s Sunday! WOO!!! It means nothing. I woke up in a salty mood for no reason. With a cringe in my neck. Yesterday went alright. I ate a lot.

    Oh man! I’m suffering a case of writer’s block! Great! Writing about writer’s block is supposed to help…. Right? For starters, I don’t even want to do the word vomit. It’s already 1:10 pm and I have wasted my morning avoiding the word vomit. I went on Reddit for hours, then played PES for a…

    I woke up from strange dreams after a strange afternoon. Not once, but twice. The first one happened around 2 am. I was dreaming that I was vomiting. Not word vomiting. Actual vomiting. I woke up and I was virtually vomiting. So I ran to the sink and spat out all the gross taste I…

    Alright! I’m tired and I got to work later today. Yesterday was long. And it started wrong. Photography. I’m good at the difficult one, horrible at the easy one. I’m actually not that bad, but now there is a second person in a row that is unsatisfied with my product photography. I never charged either of…

    Alrighty! I’m in a good mood despite being almost broke. It’s because I’m finally being productive. On Monday I did one thing that perhaps will make me some money… and not much. Shit.

    Monday, the middle of August and two-thirds done with the year. I wake up a little bit depressed and not sure why. It is probably my lack of productivity and the lack of desire to do anything about it. I was supposed to work on the weekend and I forgot about it. Didn’t get the…

    Day two of the street smelling like shit because the sewers are open. The shit smell filters into the apartment and into my nose. “It’s the weekend, let the shit run free!” That should be the CESPT’s slogan (the water commission). Who knows how long it will take for them to fix it. But for…

    1:00 pm. Barely recovering from yesterday. Yes. The Tijuana Adventure did materialize. Yes. It was awesome. Repeated customers are the best. I didn’t even know he was a repeat customer until like 10 minutes after meeting. I knew he looked familiar. Then I couldn’t remember how our tour went or who were the other people.…
