Week 49 (2025) – Bugonia and Back to the Movie Theater Review – NYC Tips – End the Year and Social Media Gig
I’m going to the movies for the first time in almost a decade. My girlfriend likes to go to the movie theater. I don’t. We’ve been dating for two plus years. And this is my first time going with her. The last movie I saw in the theaters was Deadpool. Or The Great Wall with…

Week 47-48 (2025) – Family Visits Baja – Bucket List Life – 2026 Coming at Me Fast
This is post 700 in my blog. That’s some sort of an achievement. The rest of my life is about getting achievements. Finishing projects. Bucket list. I need to finish three books: Tijuana Adventure 2, The Best of my Work on the Reader, and the Tijuana photo print book. Excerpts of that are exclusively for…

Week 43 (2025) – One Month in New Gig – Busy Social Media Weeks – Halloween 2025 Thwarted Plans
I rarely write my blog at night. It’s usually on Monday mornings with my second cup of coffee after reading emails and social media notifications. I’ve been busy this week, and it’s only Tuesday. I wasn’t that busy last week. But today I was (still am, hence writing at night). And yesterday I was busy.…

Week 37 and 38 (2025) – New York City Part 1 – Content Galore – Back to TJ and Broke
We got back from New York City last week, and I’m still processing it. I am broke, but worth it. I loved New York… I didn’t think I would. But I did. Seattle is a city that seems to be for me. Nerdy and millennial. New York is a city built for anyone… including me.…

Week 31 (2025) – McMorris Burger Viral Success – 10k Followers on Insta, 20k on TikTok – I eat, I drink, I write, I am
At the beginning of last month, I was pretty depressed. A mixture of birthdays, sadness, life going by, and also finances. It seems like I do great, then the month ends, I gotta pay my bills and more… and it’s like I didn’t make any money. I drink too much and eat outside too often.…

Second Cover: Ensenada Seafood and Beer Paradise – Procrastination Station – March Booking, Let’s GO!
It’s Monday. And like Garfield. I fucking hate Mondays. It’s gloomy out. It’s gloomy in. Though I look gloomy days. Sunset looks really promising. It’s a fucking shitty Monday. “It just sounds like you are procrastinating a lot.” That’s what my therapist told me. Sounds so obvious. I couldn’t figure it out. I’m fighting depression.…

July is Gone – All Instagram, Social Media Distortion – Photoshoots for Money Taco Paparazzo
July is suddenly gone. I don’t know what the fuck happened to me. I feel like a mammoth stuck in tar. I feel like I should be big and roaming around. Alas, I am not. I’m stuck in the same space letting time go by. I had one great Saturday. That was this last Saturday.…

Story Sold, Books Not So Much – Baja Adventure Travels – NFL and Other Fantasías
I sold the story. Fear and Loathing in La Baja sold to the regular bidder and the only place I submit my stories, the San Diego Reader. It should be a cover or a feature story in the near future. There are only 10 weeks left to 2020. It should be one of those 10 weeks.…

Paparazzi Daze / Celebrity Encounters – Corona is Over? – Buy Buy BUY My Book(s)
IT HAS BEEN DONE!!! My book about my paparazzi times is complete (sort of). This is not the official cover but one done by a friend of mine: The official cover will be similar, but different font and other different details. The back cover needs to be designed as well… and I’m not sure what…

Donatella Died, Valle de Guadalupe Trip – Sex Change – “Paparazzi Daze” Book 63.7% Done
The longer I go without writing, the harder it gets to get back to it. It has happened to me before. It is happening to me again. You forget just how you do it. How do I just sit here and word vomit so much? How did I write a book about Tijuana in a…

Post 556: Paparazzo Daze Book – Looking For Roommate (Again) – I’m Getting Older and Drunker
Post 556. That’s a lot of posts. Been blogging for almost 10 years now. I wish I thought about book writing through Amazon years ago… My really old blog posts still get a ton of visitors, like the Britney Spears one. I just wrote that chapter for my second book. Turns out, I didn’t need…

Deleted Instagram – Depressed From Doing Nothing, Doing Nothing Because Depressed – Purgatory on Earth
I woke up more depressed than I usually am. More than I have been in a year. My heart feels heavy and everything annoys me. Like my own life. I deleted Instagram because I check it every 10 seconds. After all, there is nothing to do. It is probably not healthy to be on that…

I Am Looking for a Roommate – My Book is Only 99 Cents (Kindle Edition) – Getting Published (Michael Jackson and Coronavirus)
I’ve been dating 4 girls at the same time. That’s a lie. I haven’t been dating anyone. I’ve met a pretty girl a few weeks ago and I started talking to that younger girl as well. They are both bipolar. I like them both, but at the same time, I can’t stand them both. I’m…

Moving to Alaska to be a Fisherman – I Bought a Corona Virus Piñata – La Catedral
I just hung up the phone with my fisherman buddy from Alaska. Who the fuck uses the phone? Him. And my brother. And Szavio the wise man. There are just a few people that do. I love texting, but that phone call was nice. The call was about job prospects. And he also wanted to…

Chapter 24: Tecate Virus – Uncertainty for All – Tits Out at Dandy’s
Chapter 24. Fucking Tijuana. I woke up feeling sick. My head hurts. It feels hollow. I have a bit of a cough. Not much mucus though I am spitting more often than normal. I got that Tecate Virus. Except, I didn’t drink Tecate yesterday. It might be the Corona, but I really doubt it. I…

Drinking my Earnings – Done Spamming the Book (Working on the Next One) – LOTR Paparazzo Times (That One Time I Talked to Frodo Baggins)
I woke up at 3:00 a.m. today. I couldn’t go back to bed, so I started watching LOTR The Two Towers for the millionth time. It’s an odd concept to think of this movie as old. And Christopher Lee is gone. I saw a lot of the people in LOTR back in the paparazzo days.…

March 2020: Year is Going Fast – Keep Spamming my Book (Sorry) – Tijuana is Still Consuming Me
My neighbor just grabbed my butt a minute ago. I went out to grab coffee beans because I have none. Shitty Oxxo coffee and some yogurt. And on my way back, she was opening the gate. I told her I would open it for her. And she grabbed my butt. SEXUAL HARASSMENT YO!!! She said…

Post 543: Book Report Print and Digital – I Don’t Want to Work Ever Again Though My Work is Awesome – Selling Books is Not Easy
This is post 543. That’s a lot of fucking posts. Selling a book is hard yo. I should have done something else that I can sell. Like cookies. People like cookies. Selling cookies is probably easier. Or burgers. Or brewed my own beer. You know… things people buy. People don’t buy books. I just get…

January 2020: Tijuana Adventure BOOK! – More Photoshoots – Buy My Book for $6.64 ! ! !
That year is over. No need to keep counting. I lost count in week 22 or so. I still wake up daily and think of her. And lately, I’ve been having dreams about my mom. It’s weird in the sense that I think my dream is a reality and my reality is a dream. My…

51 Weeks, 0 Days: Busy and Broke – Chef Trolling – TJ Adventure Tour Revivals and Book
51 Weeks, 0 Days. I feel like I’ve been the busiest to earn the least amount of money. I expected three small paychecks that would equal my rent but received only one. I was prepared to spend the next two weeks broke. I could barely afford to pay rent. But then… I got paid for…
