Well...

2006-08-01T00:12:00.000-05:00

Again, been awhile. I keep forgetting I have a blog.

Anyway...

I spent the first half of the weekend chillin with Matt. Toked up, went and saw "A Scanner Darkly" which by the way was a damn good movie. We ended up being like 15 minutes late because we got caught in Brewers traffic and ended up just takin city streets all the way to Wauwatosa to get to the AMC at Mayfair Mall. Not sure why we didnt just go to the Oriental Theatre. It was playing at the same time and that theatre is only a 2 minute drive from the house.

Sunday my parents came down and we moved all my shit out of the house and my old apartment and into a storage unit on the north side. Wednesday I'm supposed to meet up with these two guys, Nate and Donald about finding a new place to live. They're 21 too so that means unlimited access to alcohol which could be a blessing or a curse. On one side that means no dry, boring weekends. On the other side that means more distractions, which I certainly don't need this semester with all the added pressure of harder classes and a required GPA to meet. Damn you Architecture!

Anyway I'll worry about academics once the semester starts but the final month of summer vacation is among us and I have some serious fun to catch up on. This weekend is the MWTA OMGWTFBBQ. Most people reading this will likely have no idea what I'm talking about but to sum it up, Saturday will prove to be an interesting day. I'll be meeting and partying the fuck up with atleast a dozen people I've never met, AND to throw the icing on the cake, Saturday night I'll be going to a 21+ club with these people and since I'm tight with one of the DJs, my underage ass will be able to actually get in. Plus my boy Tribu will be driving up from Ohio and we'll likely drive up the BBQ together and get blazed.

Expect a blog update to come Sunday or whenever I remember I have a blog again with all the details (or the ones I remember atleast).

It's Been Awhile

Thanks to Lira from TA who reminded me that I had a blog. Somehow the thought of updating over the last 2-3 weeks just hasnt occured to me. Well there isnt much to say. I've been in Milwaukee and back home a couple times. Me and Matt chilled in Miltown over the weekend. I also have to find a new place to live because I'm moving out of the house in Milwaukee and into somewhere else; just have to find a place.

so yeah... thursday night Maddie, Jessie and myself all came to the house. Both Jessie and Maddie had a few friends over and I had Bildo stop over aswell so we had a little party go down. But FIRST!...

this is a huge pile of ants that we came across after we left the house... not sure why but i took a pic:

And we're off... cruisin down Farwell Ave

heres a shot of the skyline along the lake that i took. It would be better but I still havent gotten a tripod so...

and here's some pics of the fireworks:

Some peaks of the show were that we saw a East Side vs South Side gang fight, which was funny because for such "hardass thugs" they fought like girls.

Then we went back to the house and partied all night with a buncha people. Good times...

Weekend...

2006-06-26T03:53:00.000-05:00

what a shit weekend. Both my roomate matt and my other roomate Jessie told me they'd be here this weekend. I came down to the house for the weekend expectin to party a little and when i finally arrive at 9:30 pm, the house is dark...

Needless to say, I wasnt particularly thrilled. I brought all my shit up and unpacked my stuff. Then I sat around the house bored. I cheifed a little out of desperation for a little entertainment. Mission accomplished! The next 40 hours of sleeplessness was far more entertaining than I could have hoped. I stayed up all night browsing the web and chattin with random people on AIM. the next day Bildo called me up a little after noon and asked me if I wanted to go frolfing. Why not? I got in my car and we met at Dretzka park in Germantown(?)...

We played a round, sipped a few beers and talked about loads of random stuff. By the 18th I was tired and ready to go get some food. He agreed and we went to Noodles N Co... I havent eaten there for quite a while so that was nice. We came back to the house and chilled for awhile. Then we bounced. I got some taco bell, he went back to his grandparents house in the ghetto. lol.

I stayed up all night again. I chilled, watched Wedding Crashers and ordered hella food from pizza shuttle. Finally at 8am I decided to crash. I washed up, downed two shots of nyquil and passed out to Moby's "Play" album. I then slept for 13 hours. I slept from 8 AM to about 9:30 PM Sunday night. It's now 4am Monday morning and I'm high, puzzled what really happened this weekend and how my sleep schedule got that screwed up...

The world may never know...

tootsie pop time!

UW-Oshkosh

2006-06-22T13:26:00.000-05:00

So right now I'm chillin in my friends dorm room at UWO. He's working on campus over the summer and I came up here to chill. He's actually working right now so I'm in his room doing nothing. It's actually pretty boring but it seems like everywhere I'd be interested in going requires a key to get into, so I'm stuck. I'll probably just pack my stuff up and bounce in a couple minutes becaues he'll be in work for another 2 hours and I really dont feel like waiting 2 hours to take a piss (yeah... I need a key to get to the bathrooms too.)

The only plus side is that once he gets back we'd actually have something to do AND the campus is hosting some Badger State Girls thing so the campus is crawling with hot HS senior girls, all of which are staying at the dorms here.

Monday in Madison (Warning... emo content)

2006-06-20T03:41:00.000-05:00

So this past evening I drove to Madison and hung out with my ex, Erica. It was a pretty good night overall. We ended up hanging out at one of her neighbors places. Oddly enough he's a 40 year old guy but he was cool shit. I never thought I'd call a guy in his 40s cool but I guess he's become pretty good friends with their family and Erica wanted me to meet him. We actually spent like 2 and a half hours over there just talking about random stuff. Tonight held somewhat of a meaning to me though...

It was kind of an odd coincidence that right about this part of June last year I went to Madison and hung out with her. Of course last time led to us going out for 8 months. In fact, if her and I were still together, it would be a year this upcoming saturday. I'll be honest... I do miss the relationship I had with her. I dont know how she feels. She seems happy about being single and us just remaining friends though. I dont really know how she feels overall though because we just dont talk about that kind of stuff anymore. I would almost feel nervous bringing something like that up around her as I'd be worried it would cause some drama. Maybe it's because in the back of my mind I like to believe that she misses our relationship and if her and I talk about it, she might tell me otherwise. It hurts and definitely sucks but I think I'd rather go to sleep every night assuming she still had feelings for me than knowing differently.

As the night winded down I actually got kinda sad because it brought back a bunch of memories we had from last summer. We actually did a lot of things that her and I did last summer. We walked around State St and downtown, and around this weird garden thing on the UW Madison campus. In the garden there's a gazebo which brings back a lot of memories. Last year when her and I first started hanging out, we walked to that gazebo and sat down on the bench inside it. It was kind of cold that night so she sat really close to me, took my arm and put it around her. We had gotten close a couple times before that that night but for some reason, that very moment meant a lot to me. Tonight though I followed her around the garden and to somewhat of a suprise to me, we never even went in the gazebo...

Fire!

2006-06-20T02:52:00.000-05:00

Sunday night I went out to Marks house. He lives on a shit ton of land so we made use of it. We built a fire and just chilled.

Heres some pics I snapped... (click image to see bigger pic)

This one was taken with a 5 second shutter. This means every spark flying out of the fire would create a streak in the image...

The fire was so hot it melted any aluminum cans we threw in the fire within 2 or 3 minutes.

The best pic I could take of the moon. I really need to get a tripod for all my night photography.

And to leave you with something nice, here was what was waiting for me in my bathroom when I got home... (if you look at the larger version you can see it's left eye quite clearly)

Qdoba Quest

2006-06-18T14:44:00.000-05:00

Yesterday, whilst caught up in the madness of everyday life, my roomate and I decided to take it upon ourselves to eat at every Qdoba Mexican Grill in the Milwaukee metro area. If you know us, you know that we like Qdoba. In fact it might be considered my favorite fast food (is it fast food?) in the world. Three hardshell tacos (real men eat hardshell) with steak, cheese and hot sauce. Plus a water cause the hot sauce is pretty hot.

So anyway we live about 10 or 12 blocks from a Qdoba. Its literally right up the road. We decided instead to drive almost 30 minutes to the Qdoba right by the place my roomate works. He works at the Sports Authority in Greenfeild right off 76th. Considering the weather, we decided to try eating outside, which was nice. So far we've eaten at the Qdoba on Oakland, right by our house, the one on Prospect like a block or two south of North Ave, the one off Port Washington Rd by the Best Buy in Fox Point and now the one on 76th in Greenfield.

Lets see how many there are in the metro area...

*checks Qdoba website*

14... shit
