No More Dark Circles

I love the road but it’s nice to be home.

The only plan I had was flights and the first night hotel booked. Wandered my way over to San Deigo collecting footage along the way and staying offline. Kinda living like in olden times.

I visited some stuff so I have some neat videos to edit during the next few weeks. Good stuff.

Was surprised there was so much green in the desert… I thought it’d only look like the desert in my previous post.

I cruised around in my rental with a cooler of Miller Lite, delicious. I’m used to driving standard and so I spaz out driving automatic; I always forget if I don’t hold down the brake pedal the car moves forward.

Stayed at an Indian reserve casino. You could smoke inside. I’d forgotten how horrible that is.

Of course I played Wheel of Fortune. Didn’t win. Remember where I was.

Stuff in the States really is bigger, eh; the cups, meals, signs, the everything.

For the first time in 2+ years I don’t have dark circles under my eyes. I’m going to make sure going forward I do this regularly, just stop and disappear. Turns out it’s good for me.

Plus this tweet by Mason has always stuck with me, and really, that’s how you know you should be paying attention to something… it repeats over and over in your head:

My First Vacation in Years

Hi from way south in the States! Land of giant everything, styrofoam cups and real nice people.

I’m gone all week back Sunday and probably I should’ve posted something about my absence earlier but I’ve been so excited it never occurred to me, sorry.

I _was_ going to blog my trip but once down here I realized nah, this is a vacation, so no.

I can’t just shut it off though, I’ve still been documenting.

So next week I’ve got all kinds of stuff to tell you including why I love it here, descending into a missile silo, shooting an HK MP5 on auto, walking through a turn-style into Mexico, and whatever else happens to me.

TTYS

A Chair Covered in ‘Life Admin’

Life Admin: all the paperwork you have to do, that’s horribly dull and tedious, like bills & spreadsheets, taxes & filing, but must be kept on top of so that life runs smoothly.

Specifically, it’s a pile of tertiary-level Life Admin.

It was on a shelf, until I decided by putting it there, I’d deal with it faster. It’s not an effective method, you just end up sitting on it.

It took 90 minutes, and wasn’t that painful.

Life Admin in action.

Claiming ownership of this expression, it now belongs to me, forever, throughout the universe, into perpetuity.

I Haven’t Yet Officially Wished You HNY

So HAPPY NEW YEAR to YOU!!

May it be your best one yet!!

I’m kinda jinxy and methodical about how I spend the hours before the a new year. This year I wanted to be around a bunch of money, so I went to a casino.

Played slots and video poker (my favourite game, and only play on at least a 9/6 machine kay). Turned $20 into $70 in 10 minutes of play. Mission accomplished.

And let the record show that Wheel of Fortune is THE best game period. I get so pumped when me or anyone in my row gets to spin.

Then I ripped up that note, which has been folded in my wallet for 7 months, and pitched it into the sky.

So sometimes I’m like, super dramatic, whatever.
