  • Shave and a Haircute – Favorite Stranger Things – Boring Shit/Work Time

    96% of the blog space is used. Another reason I’m almost done with it. It being the blog. And so I can wake up every morning and write books instead of word vomits. Or so is the idea. Hey. I’m back to a more normal schedule! Shit. It’s almost noon and I woke up not…

  • 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.…

  • 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…

  • 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…

  • 250 Days Together Come to an End: Last Week Together – NFL, Vacation Pictures, Much Work – Dreams of Paris Hilton

    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…

  • 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…

  • Everything is Hazy After Oaxaca – Feels Like Saturday and Gringo Friends are Coming to Tj Adventure – “El Bar” Spanish Movie Review

    Now there are only two days left for Oaxaca. And I’m nervous. Traveling always makes me a bit nervous. Last big travel I had was to Minneapolis and then a road trip to Tijuana with my college friends. Before that… nothing. I’ve been stuck in Tijuana far too long. Getting out for at least once…

  • Half Week Left, Vacation Mode Already On! – Word Vomit Coming to an End – CTM: Cindy Crawford

    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…

  • My Girlfriend The Destroyer – Missed the Secret Reddit Party (I Felt Sick) – Work Friday, Oaxaca Very Soon

    I woke up at 5:02 am when I heard a very loud crash in the kitchen. CRASH!!!!! It was super fucking loud. Before getting up. I knew what it was. My girlfriend over tipped the ceramic base that holds the water jug too much. It was my fault. I didn’t buy water. There was no…

  • Liquid Meth and an Unexpected Party – Be My Guinea Pig, Drink This 7-Up – Late Night Risk

    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…

    It’s odd to come back to this after skipping two days in a row. It’s like I forgot how to word vomit. I’m over thinking every sentence and I’m not sure how I manage to do it every day. I’m tired of it. That’s why I skipped it twice. It’s been almost the whole year…

  • Front Page Attempt Flops – Kimby TJ Adventure Time – Visiting the New House, Spending the Night in SD

    I just posted a massive burger pic on Imgur and on /r/food. It pissed me off that a shitty picture of burgers was on the front page. Friday Reddit. Shitty Reddit. The picture on Imgur is doing great. Spoke too soon. It’s only been a minute and it already has two comments. It probably won’t…

  • Confusing Word Vomit in Two Far Farm Countries – Shooting Macro: The Gig is Fun, Is Not Often Enough – Ramona Ribs

    I’m sitting outside a Dunkin’ Donuts in downtown San Diego, drinking coffee and eating a granola bar. Neither are from DD (not Dungeons & Dragons). The establishment is packed with people. I wanted a breakfast sandwich. But granola and coffee from my brother’s office will suffice for now. I didn’t have time to word vomit…

    Well… that was fast. I finished the article I talked about yesterday. Woke up this morning and sent it. The editor responded right away. “Too busy right now, get back to me on Tuesday.” So I’ll have to wait till Tuesday. My roommate liked the story. But he said the same thing about a story…

    I don’t have much to say and I’m hungry. Here’s the cover picture from yesterday. I’m not entirely thrilled with how everything turned out. But I got paid. So who cares. I don’t have much to say and I’m hungry. Coffee is weak. I should have thrown all in. I didn’t leave the house yesterday.…

  • Band Manager at Burgers and Beer Festival – Party Hardy with Monterrey Girls – Hungover from Infinity Beers

    What a weekend…!! Sigh. I’m tired. My girlfriend passed out like 20 minutes ago. I skipped the blog yesterday and I thought about skipping again today… but after poking around online for a bit, I decided to fuck it. Let’s do this. Definitely no coffee. Definitely not working out. I didn’t word vomit yesterday, basically…

  • Monterrey Girls Tour Tijuana – Oaxaca Shakes and the World Worlds – Character Stories and Work (Getting Published)

    It’s weird to word vomit with guests in the house. More because they aren’t my guests, but my girlfriend’s. I don’t have the trust/confidence I usually do. And I can’t coffee coffee coffee workout. And it’s really early. Well… 9 am now. I woke up to an email canceling the one gig I had to…
