I’m Fucking 35, Camping Adventure Time – Matingas the Character – Kim Shantal
This new wordpress layout still sucks. Perhaps that’s the reason I haven’t felt like writing anything here. Perhaps is because I’ve been busy as fuck (or so it feels, but then I realize I’m not). Perhaps I don’t have much to write… I’m fucking 35 now. I feel old as shit. Bahahaha! For a while,…

Drone Adventures – Flying is my New Favorite Thing – NFL Fantasía Semana #8
I want to fly!!! That’s all I want to do. My friend Danny, a guy I toured a few years ago, lent me his DJI Mavic Mini. A nifty little drone that weighs 249 grams, making it legal to fly in most places in the United States. In Mexico, drone laws are a bit confusing…

The Final Point, Astro Photos in La Baja – Five-Star Reviews on Paparazzi Daze – Not Many Book Sales…
I applied for a job this morning. I am not certain if it’s for me, but it might be. A few people ask me to do a podcast. It’s a podcast related type of job. If I get it, it will be a new life. It’s a serious job. And one that would benefit my…

June is Finally Here – Sexy Misty Cosplay Shoot (I Do Not Sleep With My Models) – Hollywood is Racist (Duh) and My Next Book
June is Finally Here is a great song by Don Caballero. Hella, Don Caballero, and Tera Melos (and some Lightning Bolt). I listened to them a lot in 2007. Ever since then I listen to a shit ton of math rock. The book I’m writing is going great! The other book… I get one sale…

37 Weeks, 3 Days: Writers Gamble, Right? – Uneasy Days and Most Important Day Tomorrow – More NFL in Spanish, Get Used to It
37 Weeks, 3 Days. I’ve been having really weird days since last week… Nothing exciting. Nothing really that odd. I just don’t feel like myself and then suddenly the day disappears. My schedule got all fucky for working late at night and waking up late in the morning. I rarely realize what day it is…

35 Weeks, 3 Days: THANKS to My First Two Patreon Contributors – More Cover Pictures – NFL Fantasy Week #3
35 Weeks, 3 Days. Another cover last week, another cover tomorrow, another cover the week after. Then probably an illustration. And after that, probably another cover.

28 Weeks, 3 Days: The Daily Battle – Waking Up Sucks – Typing Away in a Bar
28 Weeks, 3 Days. I haven’t been having the best of days. Waking up is the worst part of my day. I just feel heavy with no motivation to even get out of bed. And I still fight through it. Make some coffee. Drink a lot of coffee. Work out a bit. Have breakfast. Shower.…

23 Weeks, 2 Days: Slow June and Crippling Depression – Afterlife Continues – Shit Post
23 Weeks, 2 Days. I woke up to the news that a classmate died of cancer. I was never really friends with her. But I was friends with her husband when I was in middle school. I haven’t really seen the dude in many years, but I do have him on Facebook, so I’ve kept…

2019 Plans – Last Year in Review 5/10, Just like my Fantasy Score – Out of Blog Space
The year ended 5/10. As in, it was good, it was bad, it was even, and so forth. Thus is the rollercoaster of life. And at the end. 5/10. Just like my final spot in Fantasy Football. 5/10. Better than last. So… still pretty good. The year also ended with one cover picture (from last…

November, Approaching the End: Halloween Parties and Photos – Gay Bars with Bumble Girl – No Penthouse For Me (Moving Out)
Do you smell that? If you do. What a terrific sense of smell. Winter is here. I woke up at 3:33 a.m. after forcing myself to stay at least until past 11 p.m. watching the new House of Cards. No more… oh shit. I already forgot his name. KEVIN SPACEY! I had to google K-Pax…

May 2018: One of the Best Birthdays – Even More Work (and More Pics!) – Lost Phone/New Phone
My birthday month is almost over. Traditionally, I hate my birthday. Even since I was a kid, I had bad birthdays. Awesome parties where friends had fun. But something always happened to me that it would ruined it. Like getting kicked out of a trampoline. Like literally “kicked out” while playing Power Rangers. I remember…

Her Name Was Lola – More Work, More Interviews, and an Impromptu Tiny Tj Adventure – Only One More Word Vomit to Go
Well… I was going to skip the word vomit today. The one before the very last. Not because I wasn’t feeling like it… but because I was busy. My brother picked me up at 8:00 a.m. to cross the border so I can borrow the car and do a simple gig. Pictures for a story…

Reddit Morning (Shitposting and Karma) – Slow Saturday – Post #465, Five More to Go
I woke up at 7 am for no reason. My brain was just like “wake up dude, it’s Saturday and you have nothing to do.” You are correct brain. I have nothing to do today. So why wake me up so early? I went to bed around midnight… Fell asleep after the Hobbits deal with…

Great Night in SD with Chad – Finding TJ People in Unexpected Places – Midnight Light Painting and Trolley Generosity
Yes! Done editing. So many pictures… And a few extras for myself. Last night was great. I had Taco Bell. And it was glorious. Fast food guilty pleasure. Them bean burritos are cheap and necessary after the night I had. I mean… I wanted In N Out or something ‘Muricun, but Chad wanted Taco Bell.…

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…

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.…

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.

Word Vomiting Up in the Air – Goodbye Beautiful Mosquito World, Hello Again Bizzarro Border Town – Thousands of Pictures to Edit
Goodbye mosquito world. I type this on Aeromexico Flight 718 destined to Mexico City while I scratch the red swollen mosquito bites of my left ankle. Picking the dried up pus and blood from the scabs. So many mosquito bites. Memories that fade. Mosquito bites that will go away. Can’t help but think that I…

Girl Pool Birthday Party – Doida Gets a Cake to the Face – Fan Light Experiment and Tons More Pictures (Again)
FUCKKK This coffee is weak. And it was expensive. It has a good smell and caramel notes. But weak as fuck. And I threw more beans than usual. It was better when I was mixing shitty cheap mud coffee with this shitty expensive coffee, but I ran out of the shitty cheap mud and now it’s…

Astro Landscape Pictures And How To Take Them (Photo Lesson…?) – Sunday Glamping and More – Skipped Monday, Today is Monday.
I skipped celebrity Monday because fuck it. Labor Day. A lot of Mexico was off. And so was my girlfriend. So I also took the day off. I also didn’t have a chance to sit on my computer almost at all. Today feels like Monday. But it’s Tuesday. So no celebrity this week. But tons…

Open Wide, NO! Wider! – Dan Almosts Gets Me Arrested and Takes a Selfie – YEP YEP YEP
Yesterday didn’t go quite as I expected. After having the expensive breakfast and coffee, I went to search for the owner of a restaurant that I needed to shoot. It was too early to find him. So I walked around Coronado for a while catching Pokémon waiting for the dude to arrive. Who knew rich…

Pictures at 4 AM – Kitchen is Back, January Ends – Deleting Trump Supporters
After publishing my word vomit, I accompanied my friend Willie grocery shopping. He was nice enough to help me do something I’ve been wanting to do for a while, fix my stove/oven. And by fixing, I mean simply buying some cinder blocks to lift that mother fucker off the ground and make cooking more comfortable.…

Trolly to UC La Jolla – San Diego Hangin’ – Weird Letter
Yesterday was better. Hung out with my San Diego buddies. Had some In N’ Out, talked about work, played videogames, and dicked around. I had a main goal, to pick up my mail. There was some mail at the office. Some at my friend Brozo’s place. Brozo had to go to the office, so I…

New Years RAHHHHH – Pictures On My Roof – Indecision 2017
I’m not big on New Years. I gave up on it ages ago. It’s just not worth the hype of anything. Last year’s NYE was pretty damn good. My brother organized a family reunion with amazing food. Before midnight I was back home and on top of my roof to take pictures of fireworks. After…

Pictures of the Rain (and How I Edit) – This is not Friday, Still Sick – Tour Tomorrow
I felt better yesterday, though still sick, I managed to get a lot of work done. I also went outside in the rain to get some pictures with my roommate’s fancy tripod (don’t worry, I was well covered). It was funny to see people wondering wtf I am doing. There’s a street fair setup by the…
