Mexican Steak Pizza

2010-05-19T23:46:00.000-07:00

Ok so this was tasty. My roommate Justin got a great deal on some steak and I was craving pizza/thawing some frozen bread dough to make a crust. I ran to the grocery, we combined forces and made Some DANK Mexican Style steak pizza.

Ingredients:
- One good size steak. Get something tender and tasty. As fresh as you can get it. Go kill a cow if you have to.
- 4 FRESH ORGANIC vine ripened Tomatoes.
- 1 Bunch of Organic cilantro
- Corn Salsa (you can normally find this near the salads or pre-cut onions... or make it your self you lazy ass hole)
- Mozzarella Cheese grated. (do yourself a favor and buy the best you can afford. Trust me. It's worth it.
- Olive Oil
- Salt (you know, the stuff you find in a grinder... none of that "kosher salt" crap)
- Pepper
- 2 Frozen Loafs of Bread

Preperation:
The night before you're going to cook the pizza, take the dough out of the freezer, wrap in plastic wrap and place it in the fridge.

2 hours before you're going to cook. Remove the dough from the fridge, unwrap the dough and let it rise. Once it stops rising, beat it down and let it rise again.

While thats happening, slice your stetak as thin as you can manage then saute it in a tablespoon of olive oil. Add a few twists of salt and a few twists of pepper. Set aside.

Give the garlic a rough chop. Dice the tomatoes or cut them however. Just break those beyotches down.

Break the dough into 4 pieces or keep it in two large pieces. Whatever you want to do. Roll it out as flat as you can make it. Using a fork, poke some holes in the dough. (this is a good anger reducer). Finally sprinkle iit with olive oil and toss it in the oven.

While the dough is cooking put the tomatoes, some salt and half of the cilantro in a pan and begin to cook it down. Dont let it burn. It'll taste like crap. Just stew them until theey are tender and then simmer till you are ready to use them.

Once the dough starts to brown ever so slightly remove from the oven. Take your tomato mixture and spread it on the crust. Don't go overboard here. Seriously. It's not worth it.

Put some meat on it.

Finally top of with a light dusting of cheese. Don't go crazy. Cheese is fattening and you don't need a lot of it. Trust me.

Pop it back in the oven until you see the cheese has melted and the crust has gotten crispy.

Pull it out of the oven and IMMEDIATELY top with the rest of your cilantro. For a finishing touch spread some of your corn salsa on it.

right before serving sprinkle with olive oil and slice it as you see fit.

For an added bonus, pair with a nice dry red wine.

No Sauce Pizza

2010-04-30T12:51:00.000-07:00

Ok So last night I was inspired to make a pizza that was both healthy as well as delicious. Here's the recipe I created:

Ingredients:
1 lb Pizza Dough rolled thin.
1/2 cup Shiitake Mushrooms sliced thin
1 Romano Tomato sliced thin
1/2 cup shallot sliced thin
1/2 cup of ricotta cheese
1 bunch of Fresh Basil cut into strips
The best Olive Oil you can find.
Salt

Preparation -
1 - Place rolled pizza dough on a baking sheet that has been dusted with flour. Perforate with a fork and sprinkle with olive Oil.
2 - Bake at 450
3 - While it's baking take the ricotta cheese and some of the basil. Add about 1/2 a teaspoon of salt and mix well.
3 - Remove dough from oven as it turns a light brown color.
4 - Lay tomatoes on the crust followed by the Shiitake Mushrooms and shallots. Crumble the Ricotta on top of everything.
5 - Bake until the crust turns dark and the other ingredients have cooked through.
6 - Remove from the oven. Grind some salt on top to taste and put the rest of your fresh basil on top. Sprinkle with some more olive oil.
7 - Let sit a few minutes before slicing. Serve immediately.

TIPS:
1 - It's ok to have a pizza that isn't round.
2 - "ready-dough" can be purchased frozen at the grocery store or you can go to your favorite pizza joint and buy raw dough.
3 - You don't need sauce to make a pizza taste good. Let the ingredients you use speak for themselves.
4 - Replace shiitake Mushrooms with asparagus and add prosciutto. (thanks T-pain for the idea)

Hope you enjoy it!

No one reads this anyway...

2009-07-10T02:14:00.000-07:00

so I figured I'd write about my life. Things are on an upswing lately. I re-met a girl I once dated and we are now dating (officially this time). I'm so blessed to have her in my life. She's an awesome girl, a beautiful woman and a fantastic kisser. (TMI)

I asked her out in Vegas which was fun. See my facebook or myspace for the pics.

Umm what else. Oh... The karaoke community in Esco lost a good guy this 4th to a fight between gangs at a party. Daniel Alexander passed away when entering a party held on 9th ave. Please pray for his family and friends as they cope with this loss.

Ok that's about all for now. I'll write more eloquently when I'm not tired/tips.

Love you all. (anyone who reads this and leaves me comments.... nice or mean.)

Got myself a journal

2009-06-18T20:35:00.000-07:00

I got myself a journal. Whoop. I guess I had it for a while but I'm just now starting it. Wish I would have thought about that a few weeks ago. Haha.

Ok that's all. Will write more later. More in my journal for sure. But y'all will get something. (all like 3 of you)

Jobs, Traveling and Getting Out.

2009-06-14T01:51:00.000-07:00

So I realize now more than ever how much I miss L.A. Seriously, it's a great town. I can relate to people there. Not the party scene, that's not me, but the flow of things. California is my home and it will probably be that for quite some time but there are parts of California that I love more than others. After living and working in L.A. I realize that it's where I'm called to be. Not a day goes by, good or bad, that I don't wish I was there.

I've spent a while researching possible jobs up there and so far I've found very little. I need to call some of my contacts up there on Monday and find out if there's anything going on. Till then I have 3 jobs lined up to work on. I'll be doing promotional videos for a few companies across the country. That leads me to my next thought.... traveling.

I love to travel. There are few things better than the open road. In the next few weeks I'm going to be traveling to Portland and Michigan. I've been to both places before but I've never had the chance to fully engage them and discover them. While in Portland I hope to find a nice coffee shop to spend my mornings before filming. In Michigan, I'll probably spend a lot of time driving to Grand Rapids to visit Beth and up to Ann Arbor. It's an exciting time!

Through these two jobs I'm hoping to have enough money to move up to L.A. I'll be doing some preliminary job searching this week so wish me luck! I don't really care what I'm doing up there as long as I can be around a creative environment. Since being back at home, I've learned that my professors were right, removing yourself from creative people makes you less creative. I miss that. I need that.

I promised so here it is...

2009-06-13T02:21:00.000-07:00

Ok so I promised a blog last night on my facebook post. Here it is.

So a few of my friends sat me down last night and had a chat, let's call it an "intervention", and although I don't think they were 100% convincing, they did bring about a few good points. There are some things I feel I owe to you to clarify about my few previous blogs.

1 - I called the girl I was considering dating immature. In fact she is probably one of the more mature girls I know for her age. I should have added that I meant to only call her immature as far as dating goes. I've dated quite a bit more than she has and although that doesn't necessarily mean that one is more mature in that area (although I'd argue that it is in this case), it probably would have been more appropriate to use the word "experienced".

2 - I was told that L.A. has changed me. My friends don't like that. I do. Perhaps it's my more cynical outlook on life, perhaps it's the fact that I'm a bigger ass hole, perhaps It's the simple fact that I've grown (in their eyes not for the better) into what I've set my mind to become (to do what I want to do, you have to be an ass hole, full of yourself... etc.). Whatever the case, I am truly not sorry. I can't be. I won't be. If the way I am is offensive to you then that's your problem and not mine.

3 - One of my friends rose an interesting question. She asked me if I stand by everything I've said. My answer was that I stand by it 100%. I may not believe it anymore, I may have seen the "error of my ways". The Grouch (musician... not the muppet) puts it best. He says the "The older I get, the dumber that I was". I stand by everything I said in the moment, however fueled by rage it may have been. It still is something I meant at the time.

4 - I've been told that I don't treat the girls I'm dating very well. (Previous girlfriends... please chime in here.) I honestly don't see where that comes from. I try to treat all women with the respect they deserve. In the next few weeks I'm going to have to ask for clarification on this. The only clarification I've received so far is the fact that I ONCE cheated (sort-of) on a girl. Mind you I was a freshman in high school. That was 8 years ago and to this very damn day, I regret it. The people I've talked to also cited my previous relationship. Here's a little back-story: I was dating a girl for well over a year and a half. Up until this point, she had told me that she would love to live in Cali since I knew I needed to after graduation. Last summer she lived with me and she started having second thoughts. Things went down hill fast after that and I was trying to hold together our relationship. I knew I loved her. I even had the ring picked out and most of the money to buy it. I wanted nothing more than to have her out in cali. Towards the end it got really rough and I knew I had to end it. She knew it too. It was just a bad situation. Anyway from my dealings with her, my friends assess that I was stringing her along for God knows what. I'm not sexual active so it couldn't have been for that. I was being emotionally wrecked and since I'm not a masochist it couldn't have been the pain. In all honesty I was hoping she would still want to be with me. Nothing more. If that's treating a woman wrong then I'm damn well happy about it. I hope to get more clarification on this point in the next few weeks. Seriously though, any of my exes who read this (I still am on good speaking terms with all of them... I must not treat them too terribly...) please chime in.

It was nice to clear some things up with the people of Escondido. I doubt the friendships that were strained will ever get back to where they were before I left of L.A., but isn't that how life works? They say there is a 7 year turnover on friendships. I know the people here will never be completely gone from my life. I will always consider them friends, if not close friends.

Tomorrow (hopefully) I'm meeting with the girl I mentioned in earlier blogs. I want to clear things up with her. This whole issue is getting to be stupid and I don't want it to destroy whatever sort of friendship we can salvage. I've contacted her and she asked to push it back a day. I'm hoping she decides to meet with me. The ball is in her court now. I've done what I can.

Ok enough of Mr. Nice Guy. Back to being an ass hole.

Today's rule: No vowels.

(getting annoyed yet... I know I am. Time to break the rule.)

Ok so let's start again shall we? I'll let you translate the first part and pick up from there.... ok here we go.

After working on my car I decided to go to the coffee shop and read for a bit. I'm in the middle (rather... end... I'll finish it tonight probably) of the second Charlie Harris book in the True Blood series. They are no way near any sort of literary masterpiece but they seriously are awesome summer reads. I'll probably go out and buy the next book tomorrow. I'll need something to read next time I get a hankering for Earl Grey tea (probably tomorrow around 2:48).

Yeah... I think that's it for the night. Nothing really new or old to talk about at the moment.

just updating you on life, love and being an ass hole (and loving it)

2009-06-07T01:33:00.000-07:00

today's rule: no caps. (they think they are better than lowercase... i'm putting them in their rightful place!)

ok so i'm here typing this blog. i don't know what it's going to be about really but judging from the title i should talk about life first:

life
life is good. i went up to l.a. yesterday after getting a new battery for my car to visit friends. unfortunately somewhere along the way i misplaced my drivers license. not good. i'll try to find that otherwise i'll get a new one on monday. no biggie. it was great seeing all the people up in the city of angels that i love. i got to see almost famous last night at a midnight showing. it was great. i love that film so much. gah it's epic. today i spent most of my time with elena. elena is one of those people who you just click with. i don't think i'd ever be interested in dating her but i know that we'll be friends forever. it's awesome how people are put in your life like that. they are few and far between. i can only count maybe 4 friends that i'll be consistently in contact with. the latter part of the day was spent with lance and patricia. they are good people.

love:
nothing much new to report here. i do have a prospective date though. patrica wants to hook me up with her co-worker. very attractive brunette (i know i swore of brunettes after megan but... hey... gotta test the waters right?)

being an ass hole:
i just have to face the prospect of losing friends. i don't know that i really care though. i'm an ass hole like that. my mentality is changing in that aspect. i used to fear being thought of as such but lately i've come to realize that life's more fun when you dont give a fuck and you're brutally honest. my last blog pissed a few people off (notably the barista from blue mug. she was really ticked even though i didn't say anything too terrible about her. honestly i like her as a person. she's interesting). it probably pissed you off too. i'm not sorry. it's how i felt at the time and so yeah, you guys got it unedited, unplanned and for all the world to see. i don't name names in my blog very often on purpose. i like to keep things as anonymous as possible. maybe i'll start with the names. that would add to this whole "ass hole" persona that in digging.

quote to live by:

"nothing is more powerful than beauty in a wicked world" - amos lee

yeah...

2009-06-02T14:14:00.000-07:00

So I've had a lot going on lately. Pardon the spelling errors too I'm on my crckberry. There are times in your life when you just need to get away and this is one of them. I'm sitting at the coffee shop a table away from the girl that for a good long while I thought I wanted to date. She's sitting with a barista who at one time was really happy for me and was pushing for the relationship to happen now they are completely ignoring me. Here's what I learned from this whole situation. Don't attempt to date anyone well under your maturity level. You get high school drama. Don't try to date someone you've been friends with for a long time. Even if there is no real relatuinship the friendship is fucked up. Don't date within a circle of friends. It shows true loyalties and ruins otherwise happy friendships.

I think this is a true sign that I am supposed to be up in los angeles. I've got great friends up there. The women are beautiful and although there is drama its not stupid shit like down here and if you want to get out of it there's always another group of friends to go be around.

Fuck this town. Fuck the drama. Fuck the people. Fuck crusin grand. Fuck blue mug. Fuck the people going nowhere. Fuck you. Fuck me. Fuck it all. I need a cigarette.

The fucking end.

The roller coaster that is my life

2009-05-30T19:30:00.000-07:00

So I've been planning this trip for months now. I've contacted all the right people. I've gotten places to stay, my light kit came in and my car came back from the shop. This morning was the beginning of what was supposed to be a 2 week trip to Houston and back. Unfortunately, my car had other plans.

A while ago I got a fix-it-ticket for my front driver side headlight being out. No biggie. I just have to stop in and show the cops I got a new bulb. I pull into the police station and park. I then proceed to get out my car walk in and find out that I have to go to another station because they aren't cool enough to look at the shitclipse. No biggie. It'll put me in Vegas about 30 min late but I'm fine with that. I'll be rolling in after dark anyway. I go back to my car and sit down. I put the key in the ignition, turn it and "click click whine". I laugh to myself and swear. I try it again and "nothing". I then proceed to punch the ceiling so hard there is now a dent.

It turns out that there is a short somewhere in my engine. The alternator works and the battery works but the power from the alternator won't reach the battery. WHAT THE FUCK!

So now I'm here, stranded, looking for flights out of San Diego to Houston. It's looking like it'll cost just as much for the ticket alone as it would have to drive there and back.

FML.

The hardest things in life are generally the easiest to achieve.

2009-05-30T04:13:00.000-07:00

So it would seem that at this point in my life there have been only a few really hard things that I've had to deal with; my mother nearing death, running out of toilet paper when I really need it, breaking off a very long term relationship and confronting friends about situations that need addressing. I did that last one tonight and realized something. Generally the hardest things in life tend to be the easiest.

I prepared myself for the worst. For the past week I literally have been sweating bullets and chickening out every chance I got. I was loading up my car after spending the night naked in the hot tub with 4 of my closest friends and finally the words stumbled from my lips. To my surprise, things went exactly had I told myself a thousand times they would. I got the initial blank stare then I heard the words I hoped, and ultimately knew I would. No harm done, no yelling, no lost friendship and in the end I got what I wanted. It was that easy.

Why was I such a pansy? Why did I wait this long? I suppose because that in the end, I'm a complete knuckle-head. I've had quite a few people urging me to just do it already and it turns out that they were completely correct. The bad scenario in my mind was a total farce. I think it's that way with a lot of things and the best way to remedy a situation like this is to dive in head first and do the deed. So next time you're in a tough spot, use the band-aid approach. Quick and painless (sometimes painful). It's the only way to live.

Semi-epic post.

2009-05-27T01:28:00.000-07:00

So as far as an epic blog is concerned, here's what I've got.

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind of emotions. I've graduated which means I've left all my friends, both at ONU and LAFSC behind without any sure promise of seeing a single one of them. It's sort of bittersweet. I mean I have those friends like Tracey and Elena that I know will be around for a good long while but at the same time I'm probably going to lose contact with a lot of people that I got very close to (especially at LAFSC).
I've also become a lot closer with a friend here in San Diego. I'm not sure at this moment where it'll take us but at the very least we've become much better friends. I think we're both hoping it'll become more than that but until I get a few things sorted out, I'm sort of stuck in this no-man's land where I can't move forward and I don't want to pull back. (I'm going to catch a ton of shit for writing this but eh... WTF who cares right?)
I've also put back on about 5-10 pounds that I'd lost at LAFSC. That needs to change. I think I might try the whole vegan thing or raw foodist thing again for a short time. Not because I want to save the poor baby cows (God... I freaking LOVE veal) but more to teach myself to eat healthier. No more fries!
I got my light kit in the mail today and that made me super happy. I got to play with it and stuff. I can't wait to set up my first interview with it! Oooooh I'm getting stoked just thinking about it!
My car is going in the shop tomorrow and then I'm going to start on my road trip. I'm getting really excited about it actually. I have just a little money and a lot of time. OOOOOOH this is going to be hella fun! If anyone wants me to stop by (I suppose most of my readers are from san diego...) just shoot me a message and I'll crash on your couch for a night!
umm what else. I love all of you for reading this and leaving me comments... however if you don't leave comments then you forfeit my love. Simple as that.

Epic blog tonight.. Maybe.

Reflections of an ass hole

2009-05-04T22:36:00.000-07:00

Ok since my last post I've be doing a sort of social experiment.

Here's what I've found:
Being a complete jerk doesn't work. I tried it with no luck.
Being a nice guy still doesn't work. Thomas enjoy it (she's moving back in a month)
The trick is finding that happy medium and going for it. I have had a little luck with being arrogant and over-confident. That seems to be the best trick for getting women to notice you. For the time being I'm going to continue on this path and see where it lands me. I'll keep you posted. Haha.

A real blog will be coming soon I promise...

On becoming less genine

2009-03-09T02:49:00.000-07:00

Ok so I had a very interesting conversation tonight with a friend. It turns out my worst fears have come true. After almost 3 years of dating the same girl, I've turned into the "nice guy". You know one. He's the guy that no matter how nice, how genuine, how polite he is, he doesn't ever seem to get the girl.

I was told tonight that I'm not what most girls are looking for and at this juncture in my life I want to be the one the girls are looking for.

Ive decided that for the foreseeable future I'll become less genuine. Consequences be damned. I don't give a fuck about genuineness. I don't give a fuck about how the world views me on a deeper level. On that deeper level I'll be that nice guy. I'll be the guy to bring you flowers and to make you soup when you're sick. I'll be that nice guy who won't take advantage of you if you've had too much to drink. On the deeper level I will be a nice guy, in other words I'll be a pussy.

on the outside though I'll be the bad ass. I'll be the guy your mother warned you about. I'll be the guy who seems like he will fuck you and forget you. I'll be the guy who buys you a drink then stares at your tits and I'll be the guy that most women at this point in their lives seem to be looking for.

You (women) are just as shallow as I am. Don't try to deny that and say you want the good guy. The good guy always gets fucked. The good guy doesn't win. This is real life. It's ok to be good on the inside but God damnit if you show that to the world.

Woah... I forgot I had a blog!

2008-12-08T12:54:00.001-08:00

Ok not really but things have been busy. Life is slowly moving along and I am about done with Olivet. There are few things that make me more excited than the concept that I won't be here next semester. Unfortunately I totally dropped the ball and there is a slight chance I will have to take a summer class. Oh well. There is worse things that could happen right? Right.

Anyway things are starting to get interesting with my relationship with Megan. It looks like we are going to be splitting up at the end of the semester (10 days) and will be dating other people. She brought the concept up and I completely agree with her reasoning. She doesn't t want to be in L.A. and has really only dated me for an extended period of time. I want and need to be in L.A. and know that if Megan and I are meant to work out then we will. Otherwise we will both meet someone new who is much better for us. It's all about the faith game. Plus now I get to have a freaking sweet bachelor pad. It does hurt but life goes on and so will I.

Heavy huh? Let's lighten this up a bit.

Watch This. You will piss yourself

i want my rain!

2008-09-11T12:57:00.000-07:00

So I'm sitting in my graphics class waiting for it to start and all I want to do is go outside and play in the rain. I thought that feeling was supposed to end after 5th grade

Epic? post.

2008-09-07T21:43:00.000-07:00

Ok so I promised an epic post. To be honest with you, I got nothin.

It's been a pretty big week. Schools officially in full swing and I am completely over it already. The classes I'm in are mostly art and that's cool. It feels like I'm in third grade again, except for the tight deadlines. All in all I'm ready to be done with this hell hole and moved on to whatever is next.

Speaking of which, I met up with a friend from out in LA and received some good pointers on how to make it in the industry. It looks like I'm in for a fun, albeit difficult ride!

I was able to hit up the Midwest Cigar Summit yesterday with Megan. It was a freaking great time! We got to sample some new cigars, some JD and a ton friends were there to hang out with. I even got to meet Gene Arganese of Arganese Cigars (http://www.arganesecigars.com/). I'll post some pictures at the end.

Oh so what else? Oh I'm working on an idea that I've been toying with for a while. I've tasted some chocolate truffles flavored with all sorts of things. One of my favorite is the "Earl Grey Tea" truffle. I want to take that idea a bit farther and do all sorts of teas. I might try to market them as a product named "Tease". We'll see how this first batch turns out with some low grade chocolate before I move to super high quality foreign chocolate.

Hmm... I think that's it. I'm buckling down for the next week of classes and hoping I don't lose my mind.

Sorry this wasn't that or deep or interesting. Leave me some love and maybe some inspiration for my next post alright?

2008-08-28T12:27:00.000-07:00

So someone told me that I need to blog more. This always happens when I have a blog, people start reading and they enjoy it and then i stop because i get busy and then all hell breaks loose! Ok well maybe that is an egotistical view of it but seriously, I wish I could sit at a coffee shop all day and write in my blog. I'd love that. (I did that this summer) but gah... school is creeping up on me, I need to get more sleep, I want to party instead, and life just wont slow down.

Tea and cigarettes

So I'm here at blue mug waiting for my video to upload. I don't know why but today is a sad day. No reason whatever to be sad. I don't know. It might be that I'm leaving to Chicago soon. I don't want to go. I'm over it. I really am.

Something Deep.

Coffee and Cigars

2008-08-06T11:26:00.001-07:00

So I'm sitting here at Blue Mug Coffee in Escondido CA and I'm thinking. I'm not thinking about the upcoming election, the racial unrest between Hispanics and white Americans at the boarder, the price of gas, or anything to do with the heat. I'm thinking about God's gift to man in the form of coffee and tobacco. At this point in my life, nothing is as calming or as enjoyable as the taste of coffee with a nice cigar.

Time... it is short.

2008-08-05T02:25:00.000-07:00

So I have been around. Not posting.

But it's 2:30AM and I just finished reading Chelsea's blog. I am the infamous C-rizzle. Yes... I am the one looking for skanks to bang. Ok, not really but yes that's me. Anyway I digress.

The past few weeks have been a whirlwind. My mom's sick, my girlfriend is back in Chicago, I started smoking the occasional cigarette (WTF right?) and I am looking to enjoy the last few weeks of my summer "vacation". I don't know what the next few weeks hold (except the trip to LA to see Tania and hopefully the Dark Knight in Imax), but I plan on having some fun.

Who's with me?

Epic craigslist post.

I don't care what colour you are. I don't care where you're from. I don't care what you do for a living. I don't care what class you are, how you dress, what you smoke or drink or who you know or whom you've fucked.

I hate you all. I hate every last living, breathing, snot and feces producing, promiscuously copulating, celebrity obsessed, opinionated one of you. From right here in Toronto right around the planet and back, coast to coast, nationwide and internationally. Every. Single. Last. One. Of. You.

Fuck love. Fuck your insipid grasping at some abstract concept of chemical imbalances and reasonless actions, fumbling around in the crowd trying to find some cinematic supposition for real human interaction. Fuck lust, too. Fuck you all, from the lowlife dirtbags that think dropping trou and waving the little soldier in a sloppy arc is a pick-up line to the sniveling of the desperate 'nice guys' who never get the girl due to a total lack of testosterone grown stones. Fuck you all, from the crazy, under dressed sluts that judge a persons character by the price of their shirt, right down to the fat, flabby chicks that think personality is enough.

Fuck you drivers, for thinking that a yellow light is a sign that says 'step on the gas'. Fuck you wheelmen and women that think it's okay to sit in a left hand turn in the middle of morning traffic, even though there is a protected left in the intersections before and after where you need to make your turn. Fuck you too cyclists - you're not exempt from the traffic laws just because your peddling, you miserable spandex covered neon reflective fucks. Fuck you too, pedestrians. Use the fucking crosswalk if you don't want to get hit, and use it before the little countdown clock says '3'. You don't have enough goddamn time to lope across four lanes of traffic.

Fuck you chick on your cellphone. Fuck you attitude packed minimum-wager that makes my coffee. Fuck you cops that spend all their time handing out speeding tickets. Fuck you douche bag doing ten over the limit in the passing lane on the highway. Fuck you lady using exact change at the counter at the grocery store. Fuck you kids having a conversation in the doorway. And fuck you also for not getting the fuck out of your designated handicapped seat when a pregnant or elderly person gets on the fucking bus.

Fuck taxes. Fuck welfare. Fuck the whole selfish, over politicized and party driven government system. I'm sick and fucking tired of policies and new laws with seven hundred bylaws that nobody but you and your cabinet reads. Fuck you councilors and your stupid 'district improvement' plans. Fuck you unions, for asking for so much and giving nothing more that what you already give. Fuck the whole process that allows people who are supposed to be working for us work for interests that only benefit the next campaign. Fuck your short-sightedness, your rush to the bandwagons, and your incessant arguing over fuck all. Fuck the parties, fuck the conventions, and fuck your campaigns. Do some real fucking work for a change.

Fuck you bottles of water. You're water. You're not worth two fucking dollars.
Fuck you trendsetters, fuck you fashionistas. Fuck your little dogs and and your idiotic outfits. Fuck your high heels in the snow. Fuck your five dollar coffees and your fifteen dollar veggie burgers. Fuck your health kick, your diet or your fucking new interest in kickboxing or sushi.

Fuck your culture. Fuck your race. Fuck your sense of entitlement. Fuck your sense of uniqueness. Fuck you all for the belief that you have something unique and interesting to contribute. Fuck you for filling the internet with your useless garbage. Fuck your blogs, your wikis, your forums. Fuck your name calling. And most of all, fuck whatever you believe. It's all wrong. Fuck it.

Fuck your complaints. Fuck your addictions. Fuck your dependencies. Fuck your pain. Fuck your tears. Fuck selling whatever it is you sell. Fuck your manipulation of others. Fuck movies. Fuck fucking. Fuck everything you own. Fuck your allergies. Fuck your stupid commons sense. Fuck your spelling and fuck your lack of education, or your ignorance, whatever is applicable.

I don't give a fuck. Shut the fuck up and just get on with it.

Ok so maybe this blogging thing will get easier. I find it hard to write on the screen my innermost thoughts, fears and ambitions for all the world to see.

I think part of it is that I hate writing about myself. Generally I don't know why you would be reading this. Why anyone in there right mind would come here and read this crap.

Why are you here? Are you here?

Blog Cherry

2008-06-30T00:37:00.000-07:00

So here we are. I was inspired by a friend to start blogging again.

Woah... hold on. "Blogging" is not considered a word according to my web browsers spell check. WTF right?

Ok sorry about that.

So let me tell you a little about myself:
1 - I dont use correct punctuation. Get over it
2 - I like the sound of snow under my feet.
3 - Nothing annoys me more than chewing ice.
4 - I'm crazy.
5 - I smoke cigars and hookah. Cigs are not my thing.
6 - I read. Not as much as I want but I like it.
7 - I spend too much time watching movies.
8 - I swear sometimes. Don't let your kids read my damn blog.
9 - You can email me and I'll answer ANY question you ask. I'm an open book. That's what this blog is about.

Thanks for visiting. Keep looking back for new posts!
