  • Dragonforce at The Red Dragon – A Good Day to Adult – Torta with Tony Tee and Wine Tasting with El Profesor de Vinos

    I should be leaving right now. But I’m not. Today. I adult. I haven’t adulted in a while. I tried to yesterday. I interviewed three people. In a very awkward manner. But I believe I got what I need. Not having a beard makes me a hundred times whiter. More people on the street offer…

  • Menudo and Depression – Reading DT’s Tweets at 4 A.M. – Cover Photo Need to Work on Cover Text

    Menudo and depression is what’s for breakfast. Not Menudo the band. That would actually be more depressing. Maybe. I posted yesterday that I’m happy I’m on a new schedule that I’m not waking up at dawn anymore. Guess who woke up way before dawn with all those beautiful thoughts of “life is shit you should…

  • Don’t Be An Asshole – December is Coming, Last Month of Blogging – Emmy Rossum (and Adam Duritz)

    Don’t be an asshole. That’s the life lesson from Dr. John Kitchin, aka, the Slomo dude that rollerblades along the boardwalk at Pacific Beach. Great reporting by the New York Times. I’ve seen the dude multiple times. I’ve heard the rumors that he can’t see faces and that he has a nice house by the…

  • Bye Nelson, Hi Chips – Deck 22 Not For Me – Slayer + Growls = Life

    I haven’t been in this bar in years. I never took my ex here. My first true TJ self. I never took her to Nueva Pachanga. My other true self. Well…. just the night we met. Then Zacas. And we never went back. I never dared taking her to those places. True raw gross Tijuana. It…

  • Wasting Inconsistent Days – Drugs Are Bad Mmmkay – College Rebound

    I woke up super hungover today. Bad. It hasn’t been that bad for a while. But I’ve nursed it good enough. Ordered Uber Eats. Two sandwiches from “Buendwich.” The first one was a breakfast sandwich. It was alright. Nothing spectacular. I could make a better breakfast sandwich. The second one awaits and I’m going to…

  • Pink Sunsets and Interview at Norte – Hanging Out with Sophie (and More) – Full Circle of a Small Tj Life

    I have to go to a place I’ve never been today to take pictures for the special issue. I’m sort of nervous I’m not sure why. A new cover comes out tomorrow. And I think it’s going to be my favorite cover so far. You’ll have to wait and see. I’m excited for this one.…

  • My Truth About Hollywood Scandals – The First Chapter of a Book I Never Wrote – CTM: Talking to Elijah Wood

    Uhh… I should uhh… Write something. You know. For work. I haven’t done that since the last thing that got published. And I did one photo gig. And one special edition. I guess that’s enough. I have three to work on in the hopper. And character stories that come and go. I should write something.…

  • Beer Beer Beer and NFL – Video Games Like a Little Kid – A Good Roommate to Have

    It’s NFL Sunday. I’m an idiot and I’ve been waiting for this. Again, I’m last in my Fantasy league. And this round is no different. I’m going to lose the week. At least it seems like I won’t be the worst one of them all. It still does me no good. I had messages from…

  • Lucha Libre with Rumble Girl and Chucuchu – Forced Myself to Party Until 3:30 a.m. – Back to Tacos and Beer

    9:44 am on a Saturday and I wake up feeling great. Yesterday was a great day/night. I came home at 3:31 am after a long night of partying. I didn’t even want too. I got convinced to do so. And I am happy that I did. It feels like Sunday. But there’s no NFL. I’m…

  • Stranger Things Reviewed – Hanging Out with Other Writers – Happiness in Loneliness

    I skipped the blog yesterday. Oops. Wednesday I didn’t do anything but work and be sick. And then at night time… I watched… STRANGER THINGS. For the first time ever. And holy shit. What a dumbfuck I have been for not watching it before. Yep. I just started season 1. And I binged watch the…

    4:11 am and I’m at my desk. I woke up at 3:33 am and I tried to go back to bed but couldn’t. I have a sore throat and I’m awake! Yay! This fucking schedule is killing me. And I keep falling for it. Over. And over. And over again. Yep. I wake up super…

  • Hibernating at Nelson – Life Has Been Reduced to Nothingness – Hiatus Done: Two Weeks Worth of Word Vomit

    It’s dark outside though it’s 1:20 pm. It’s also cold. It went from being 100°F plus and sunny to 65°F cloudy and cold. I know, 65°F is not that cold in many places. For me it is. For her, it would be. I spoke to her on the phone this morning. It was a better…

  • Benjamin Button Relationship – Friends Are Appreciated – Nothing is Copacetic

    I slept on the couch once more. I got home at around 3 am. I haven’t done a long night in Tijuana like that in a long long time. I’m waiting for my girlfriend to call me, so I’m not sure if I should start word vomiting. … there. Well. Nevermind. She is restarting her…

  • Drinking and Promoting Colimita IPA with the New Roommate – In Teléfonica Without Her – Long Distance Dawns on Me

    I treated Thursday like Friday. I thought it was Friday since early morning. It felt like Friday. I even told Los Compadres to have a good weekend! Those are the guys that make that super great shrimp enchilado tacos. It was not Friday. I realized it as I was walking away. I guess telling someone…

    Alright! I posted my breakfast on Reddit. Let’s see if it makes it to the front page. I doubt it. But let’s see. This was my breakfast yesterday: The Freiburger®: meat patty, white American cheese, fries, coleslaw, mayo, on King Hawaiian Rolls, and topped it off with an egg. I like The Hangover breakfast a…

  • Reader Beer Guide Cover Picture (and More) – Day 1/Night 2 in a Long Distance Relationship – World Series and Still Sucking at NFL Fantasy

    Day 1 without her went totally fine. It was more like a regular day like when she went to work and I stayed behind and worked. I finished and sent an article. The other got published. I sent pay requests. I did the phone calls I needed to do. … sort of. Apparently, the people…

    Alright. I just woke up a bit late. Girlfriend already left the apartment to do an errand and came back. I have nothing to write. It’s a slow Saturday. I don’t know how I do this every day. I’m sort of depressed. What’s new? Yesterday, we walked a lot. We went to Teléfonica for a…

  • Weird Dreams of a Mountain Top Waterpark – New Roommate, Moving Out Soon – My Uber Driver Hated Gays, Tongue Taco Not Related

    I had a really weird dream that I was in a small mountain town that was also a water park and it also somehow had snow and acted like a ski-lodge. It was so remote that it had no cell phone signal. And to get there, you had to fly on a shitty plane that…

  • Beer for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner! – New Favorite San Diego Brewery – More Mazunte Vacation Pics

    I just listened to the new Weezer. And I’m really sad for it. WTF? This doesn’t even sound like Weezer. Sounds like Katy Perry or some shit like that. Thanks Justin for forcing me to listen to this bullshit. Seriously. If this came up on the radio and wasn’t aware it was Weezer, I would…

  • Listening to Old Music: Chim Charoo Review – Craft Beer Photo Shoots! – Vacation/Wedding Edit Done

    I’m listening to Chim Charoo. The old band from Houston, Texas that my cousin had. I love this album. I love that band. They were way ahead of their times. I don’t think you can stream or listen to any of it online. You can only do it if you have the album. I’m listening…

    SWOOP! Big swoop! Back to Tijuana and real life. Woke up to a million notifications after dreaming about Paris Hilton and her sister Nicky. They were running away from the paparazzi at LAX. I was just there returning for a flight but I also had my camera. So I started shooting her (Paris, Nicky who…

    Day 2 of Oaxaca. We walked from Mazunte to San Agustinillo. It’s like a 20 minute walk. The sun and humidity are heavy. But we didnt’ care. Before getting to San Agustinillo, we bumped into my brother, his wife, and family, and my friend from childhood “El Killer.” They were headed our way. We were…

  • Oaxaca in 6 Hours – Horrible Phone Word Vomit -I Started a Book

    There is a dude singing about god in the trolley. He has headphones on. He just yelp completely out of tune “Cristo Salvador.” Now he is murmuring still out of tune “quédese señor,” repeatedly. I’m going to try to ignore him. Line. I need a music device and headphones. Haven’t gotten lost in my music…

    Alright, dude, you can do this! My girlfriend said she was going to work for this half week that we have left before OAXACA! She lied. She woke up early this morning and said, “I don’t want to go.” Or something like that. It was 4 am. I didn’t take notes. Point is, she decided…

    An unexpected party! That’s a chapter of The Hobbit if you didn’t know… It happened yesterday. Not like in The Hobbit. But there was a very unexpected Wednesday party. I did some splash photography for fun (and for an article, but mostly for fun). I should have used the flash. That picture originally was way…
