Lost at Risk – Procrastination Nation – Oversleeping
The roommate finally came home yesterday. I used his homecoming (after almost a month) as an excuse to just sit on the couch, not touch my computer and not work. We had Risk later that night. Chad barely even paid attention to the board. He was the one with the least experience. He ended up…

Coachella Lollipop Thoughts – Top 10 Music of 2017 – Got Drunk and Published
I got published today. Starting the year with a feature story about Haitian chicken and more. I wrote that story a few months back. Finally got published. Getting used to it. Cover story. Feature story. Next story. Shitty blog. Yesterday I finally started working on a story I did not query and I’m just writing for…

We Suffered an Internet Timequake – Day 3 – Risk Wednesday Nights!
It’s day 3 of 2017. We have suffered an internet Timequake. And we went back to the year 2007. Reddit’s front page posts are as old as the internet themselves. Shitposting is your new ticket to karma paradise. Trump. Reposts. Trump. Reposts. Reddit for the beginning of this year has been like that. Reddit by…

First Monday! – Fix my iPad, Fix my Writing, Fix my License, Fix my Life – Hayden Panettiere’s Boob! (& Wladmir Klitschnko)
I’m not big on planning. Plans never go the way I want them too. But I need a plan to fix my life. I woke up to a few emails I didn’t like. And yep yep yep. I’m going to complain and say I want to give up. It feels like when you are taking…

Yay! A number Changed! – Happy Bday Bisho! – Word Vomit 2016 Summary
Yay!! A number changed from 2016 to 2017. Celebrating a new year is like celebrating seeing 11:11 on your phone. It means dick. Celebrate every second, every minute, every hour, every day, every week, every month. Number changes. I guess the year is the bigger of them all. And that’s why celebrating decades gets even…

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…

Andy’s Surprise Bday Success – Pizza All Day – Holiday Bonus!
All I ate yesterday was pizza. I crossed the border at around 3 pm to head to the office. I wanted In & Out, but I forgot that I bought a one-way ticket on the trolley, so I couldn’t stop for a burger :( Instead I went straight to the office. And found out I…

Met The Love of My Life – Great Day – RISK!
It had to happen eventually, right? Gorgeous girl walks into my favorite bar. Doesn’t look at me, but orders a caguama, and goes straight to the jukebox. Plays my favorite Beatles song (Happiness is a Warm Gun)… and three others. She sits a couple of stools next to me at the bar. Next song is…

Hangover? Nah. Headache. – Spanglish Cover – Risk Tonight
I woke up early with a sharp headache. I couldn’t concentrate. Water, aspirin, shrimp tacos, coffee, more water… nothing helps it. It’s almost gone now, but it’s still there. I didn’t even drink much yesterday (4 beers and an especial). But it’s like all that I drank on Sunday hit me like a train way…

Baby Face Gringo Face – Cover Tomorrow, Risk Tomorrow – RIP Carrie Fisher
“Hey man! Where do you get your art?” Random dude in Avenida Revolución. “Venice Beach brother!” I replied. “Yes, but where at? I know a tattoo artist over there with that style. Look I’m from LA too.” He proceeded to show me his LA tattoo. “Cool man, I just lived there, I’m from Querétaro.” I…

2017 Undecided – Great Xmas to Spiraling Out of TJ Control – Fergie and Josh Duhamel
Xmas was great. My mom’s Carne en Su Jugo is fantastic and I have tons of it in the fridge. I also have the prosciutto wrapped salmon from the night before. And a bunch of cookies and brownies. Also. Success in my mom’s presents! She liked them both. It was a good xmas day/dinner. Family…

Merry Christmas You Filthy Animal – Weather is Weather and Quotes – Wrapping Presents Uncle Level
Rarely. I tweet. But I tweeted this that I liked: “Being cynical means you are often right, but are rarely happy about it.” I liked that quote. It was a comment on Reddit. I should give credit to the person that wrote that, but I forgot his username. That shit, however, is spot on. And…

2 Great Days in A Row – Three Birds Stoned at Once – Bye Visitors!
I had two great days in a row! And I want to continue that luck so I’ll be heading out to meet my roommate for some beers and fried chicken soon. On Wednesday I got three birds stoned at once. That’s a Rickyism, from TPBs. What I really mean is I got three birds with…

Oh Hai New Visitors – Stats Are Booming – Year Ends SOON!
YOUR STATS ARE BOOMING! My iPad tells me every 2 hours after I post a blog thingy. Then I look at my stats and it’s like “17 people visited your webpage.” Yep. It exaggerates by a lot. That’s not booming stats. But hey. The past two days without reddit gimmicks or anything, I’ve gotten over…

Woke up at 4:22 AM – Inspired Finally – Still an Idiot
It’s incredible how bad I am dealing with rejections. It wasn’t even a rejection, it was a re-write. And I still felt heavy hearted that yesterday all I did was walk around with my camera. I was looking to interview a cricket salesmen, but found none. Instead I took a picture of a sad looking…

Hibernation Nightmare – Soy un Pendejo Potencial – Sting
I woke up from a nightmare in the wee hours of the morning. Like always, when I woke up, I remembered all the details. Instead of writing them, I told myself “yeah, you’ll remember them later.” Of course I don’t. All I remember is that I was sleeping in my apartment, except it was a…

Early Aussie Tour – Especiales and a Great Conversation – Super Moon was Liked
Yesterday I was not around at home at all because I had one of the earliest Tijuana Adventure tours ever…. I crossed the border around 9:30 am to meet with Ed and Eleanor from Melbourne, Australia. Ed has family in Los Angeles so apparently they visit frequently enough that a trip to Tijuana was due.…

Beard Gone – Theater Night – The Dude! Jeff Bridges
I wasted my whole morning changing my appearance. I haven’t done any of the work that I said I was going to do. And I don’t have enough time to do a top 10 of music right now, so that will have to wait until next week. I uhh.. I got stuck writing an article.…

Money, Money, Money – 2016, Music Forgotten – I Hate Theater
Oh. Look. I made some decent money this bi-week and the payment just came in. It’s stupid that I get excited by so little money. But it’s more than I have made most of the year. I can pay rent comfortably. I can go out to eat comfortably. I bought a stove/oven from a friend…

Smash Bros Morning – Sleeping Tons – Korean Tacos in Tijuana
I came home early yesterday. I’m still emoish. I’ve been sleeping tons. Sleep is good. Had really odd dreams. For some reason, the city got flooded, and when I woke up, my room turned into a taco shop. I didn’t like it. I hated it. Also a different dream involved me saving a barrel of…

Pizza Time – Don’t Disrespect Colbert – I Hate Everything
I’m not emo. Well maybe I am a bit. But I’m hating everyone and everything. Not sure why. Just feels like that. Whisky might fix that. It doesn’t feel like a Friday either. Feels like a Wednesday. And I’ll treat it as such. I have some work to finish and I’m still avoiding the fuck…

Woo Accepted! – On The Trolley OMW to a Cruise – Happy? Not Really
Yay! I got accepted for publication! Or so I think. I am getting paid, that’s what I know. When will I get published… Well… Time from now. Not sure how much. The story is pretty timeless, so there is no need to rush. Doubt much will change my to change the story. Not sure what…

Victim of 4 Hour Nap – Excited About Tacos – That Block Button
A few beers kick my ass now. This time it was just three IPAs. I mean, it’s not like a week without drinking lower my tolerance… or did it? Or maybe it’s the winter. Point is. I went out today at 3ish pm to meet up with a friend for an interview on an article,…

Monday Blues, Sniffles, and Cough – Crazy Fast Year – Jessica Alba
It’s Monday and I overslept this morning. Finally took a cold ass painful shower, and headed out to do my favorite thing… Laundry! /s I am typing this in the laundromat, headphones on my head, Hella playing, bored out of my mind and in a state of nothingness. I have work this week. I queried…

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…
