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…

YouTube Beer Reviews and Sexy Photo Shoots – Controversial Cover – Starcraft with Friends
It feels like I haven’t written anything in a long time. I guess two weeks is a long time. I remember I got busy. I’m not sure how or when or what I did. But I got busy. I did one photoshoot for the magazine, I haven’t done that in what feels like years. It…

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…

40 Weeks, 3 Days. It’s going to be a year soon. It is still the weirdest thing ever… I told my therapist about it. How it is still difficult to say it out loud. My mom died. It’s still difficult to type without choking up, but I’m getting better. And it’s very difficult to tell…

29 Weeks, 2 Days. Honestly, I lost count. Which seems like progress. I have to look at my previous blog to remember how long ago it was. Weird that it’s also the count of how old is my baby niece. I saw her yesterday. My niece and nephew are cool. I shall try to be…

27 Weeks, 3 Days: Drinking El Segundo – Jamming with Hudson – Driving Donatella Far
27 Weeks, 3 Days. More than half a year. It still feels so weird. It still feels like I’m going to see her on some holiday break. It still makes me cry when I realize I’m not going too. I didn’t do much yesterday. I’m not doing much today. I don’t like it when I…

22 Weeks, 1 Day: Procrastinating and Unpaid Work – Going to Therapy – Rosarito Foodie Fest Cuz I’m an “Influencer”
22 Weeks, 1 Day. I originally was going to write at 21 weeks, 4 days. Procrastination and the willingness to do absolutely nothing got the best of me.

19 Weeks, 2 Days. Last day of vacation. CDMX has been a wild and entertaining ride. I do not want to go back to border crossing life reality. I’ve been so distracted that thinking about mom all the time has diminished. I almost lost count again… it’s weird. Life still feels weird. This city has…

I have to pull the trigger soon. Just be brave. And do it… Pull the effing trigger. And buy a car. It’s been around a year that I’ve been looking at cars. At some point, I almost got a 90s Bronco for free. That didn’t happen. Then there was some talk of a free Honda…
