  • Pictures of Food Exclusive to Tijuana Adventure – Fishy Grunion Hunt Tonight – Friday Night of a Boring Couple

    Saturday doesn’t feel like a Saturday when every day is a Saturday. My computer was running extra slow this morning. My brain is running slow as well. Before my girl got off from work, I went to buy her an iPhone protector yesterday. I also got her a SIM card so she can actually use…

  • 121 Days and Counting – 150,000 Words of Epic Nothing – Bizarre Cheap Burger & Beer Town

    “We haven’t been in this bar for a while,” said my girlfriend last night…. Yep. It feels like it has been years… It’s been 121 days since we met. And consequentially, fallen in love, and moved in together. That’s like 4 months. 1/3 of the year. I’m still confused on how it happened. I feel…

  • Buda Burgers and the Elusive Nelson Red Star – In Search of Grunions – In Need of Lightroom

    I had weird dreams. So I woke up feeling weird. I have one photo mission that I’m sort of nervous about, though nothing happens if I don’t get it. Grunion run. There’s an upcoming cover story about it. Grunions are small fish that come to shore at midnight to reproduce on a new moon or…

  • Carlos First Day in ‘Muricuh – Work, That’s What I Will Do – Business Cards (and a Mousepad) Have Arrived

    My friend Carlos, aka Benny Blanco, was one of the first guys I ever hung out in Tijuana. We used to hang out at his coffee shop all day. He has never been a fan of the US, but he finally got a VISA for the first time. And despite living in the border town…

  • InKoPah Concert and Camping – Tons and Tons of Long Exposures and Light Painting Pictures – No Celebrity Monday

    Oh. Look. So weird. I took shit tons of pictures! They are not in order because Imgur fucks up the order and there are 123 pictures to organize. So I’m not doing that. I guess 123 is way too many. I shot 235 and edited to 123… that’s still too many. Couldn’t help it. It…

  • Work Drama, TJ Adventure Day Tour, and First Concert of the Year – Delta Sleep (Math Rock) Were Amazing – Now, More Concerts and Camping

    It’s been a weird morning already and it’s not even 8 am. I got a call from a girl I barely know through Facebook messenger. She told me she was outside my apartment building and wanted to get in. WEIRD. Here’s the thing… apparently, she was getting a ride home, but her ride crashed the…

  • Guilt Trip Feels – Stop Making Sense! – Damian, The Guitarist Space Cowboy

    “I should quit this (the blog),” I say to myself pretty often. But instead, I wake up fucking early and start typing non-sense. Guilt trip. I feel guilty for having a guilt trip about being guilty. Guilty is a funny word to say. I wrote King Creep as if it was my original idea. Alas,…

  • King Creep – Piano Men Cover Photo – I Should Quit This

    I take pictures when you are not watching. One time, I followed pregnant women for a week because she supposedly was carrying John Cusack’s baby. The first two days, nothing happened. She just went to a drive thru. No pictures. The third day, I got pictures of her in the bookstore. The fourth day, she…

  • My Instagram Boyfriend (Man Date) – Shooting with Housewrecker – A Day In The Border City and a Long Photography Rant

    Bryan beware. I’m going to talk a bunch about photography in this post. Amateurs beware. It’s going to be a lot of ranting about photography and you won’t learn much because I’m just an okay photographer. Alright. Let’s get to it. Bam! Album starts with pictures of food. There is a reason for that. I’m…

  • Vivid Nightmares Make for An Odd Morning (Reason Enough to Skip the Blog) – Ghetto Karaoke Party – Craft Beer Talk and Tijuana Adventure Update

    I skipped my blog yesterday. I woke up feeling weird, sad, and shitty. I had very intense, vibrant, weird, scary dreams. The only one I remember with somewhat of a detail. There was a shooting in some bar, a lot of people died, I watched hidden under a table. Then the guys… guys? I don’t…

    Let’s start this word vomit with a tad of good news! I got published a while earlier. Here is the article. Let’s counter it with some bad news. The article is about shitty things that have been going in Tijuana. So after feeling worthless yesterday because I haven’t been working, I finally pulled my shit…

  • Addicted to Candy Crush – Girlfriend is Dead (Clickbait Worked) – Slow Days Means I’m Depressed

    I’m addicted to Candy Crush. I can’t stop playing. I woke up at 4:22 am to play Candy Crush…. Except it’s not Candy Crush. It’s the Jeopardy World Tour mobile app. It’s fucking great. Not a true Jeopardy because… well… it’s a mobile app. So it’s like Candy Crush and Jeopardy. It’s colorful. It’s addicting.…

  • I Cheated On My Girlfriend – Money Is Scarce, Have to Write – This is Post #300

    I just cheated on my girlfriend. Everyone is probably like, “oh stop it with your shitty clickbait.” But I did. She’s doing errands for the job that she is getting. She is probably getting the job, right? I mean… why would they make her do all this shit and at the end be like “no…

  • Blog Paid: Word Vomit for Another Year – No Photo Missions, So Writing It Is – New Shower Curtain!!!

    My girlfriend is at a job interview right now. It’s freaking far. And it doesn’t look like it would pay much. So maybe it wasn’t even worth it. We’ll see how it goes. If it pays good enough, it might be a better choice. But she’s excited for the other job that she most likely…

    Alright! Word vomit time. I have absolutely no plans or have no idea what I’m about to type. Let’s see how this goes. Yesterday my girlfriend and I hung out with Bryan. Bryan only reads this blog after we hung out because he likes to read that he got mentioned. Hey, Bryan. You made it…

    The number of visitors on my blog are down. It’s not like I care much. I will continue to word vomit until something makes me stop. I wonder when that will be. I’m trying to reach the end of the year word vomiting daily and then see how I feel (it’s been less than a…

  • My Awesome Girlfriend Cooks Awesomely (and Also Pounds Beers) – Santuario New Brewery Review – Rejecting a Contract And Feeling Like a Douche About It

    My girlfriend cooked dinner while I did office type work. The desk has always been like my office… but now with the whiteboard above me, it feels more real. I like it. It shows me clearly what I have to do. My schedule has always been pretty open to anything. With a couple of dates…

  • I’m Cletus From the Simpsons… According To The Baseball Stadium’s Giant Screen – Another Great and Successful Tour

    Woke up hungover. It’s sort of fixed. Yesterday was a blast. My legs were hurting real bad from bowling. They still hurt. The clients arrived earlier than the hour they said. We were supposed to meet at 10 am. I messaged them at 9:30 am to see where they were at… they were already at…

  • Strikes and Holes in One – Baseball Tour Time – Cover Photo and Amazing Breakfast

    After all the Grinchiness wash away with booze, it felt like a normal Wednesday. Except a number changed. I’m no longer 30. But 31. That’s the only real change. The rest is still the same. No desire to do writing work. Just want to take pictures. My photo missions aren’t until the weekend. Let’s see…

    Of course I was a Grinch for my birthday. My mom told me not to grinch it. I grinched it. I mean… it was a fucking Tuesday. What did you expect? My birthday celebration was supposedly going to be Tacotopia on Saturday. But I had to work that weekend and I’m happy I did. Money…

    My girlfriend woke me up and surprised me with a cake and four lit candles. How cute. But I didn’t eat cake for breakfast. And those candles were the fuckers that light up by themselves after blowing on them. It looks delicious. I want some later on when I’m drunk and wanting some sweets. She…

  • Skipped My Blog For Two Days Because Work and Lazy – Birthday Boy Got To Work – B.J. Novak in Tijuana (Bonus: Mindy Kaling)

    I skipped my blog for two days. That’s the first time that I skipped two days in the same week. I skipped Friday (though I wrote it on Friday and published on Saturday morning). That makes it a total of 10 skips (I believe… let’s say 10). Saturday was understandably way busier than Friday (for…
