Good bye 2008

What a pretty face. I love you Joey Camz

With less than 8 hours left in 2008 I am starting to feel better. It was one hell of a year. A lot happened, people came, people went, emotions flied, hearts ached, decisions were made and lives were changed. Not many of my friends or people in my life had a good year. Seems like everyone had some shit going on that just wasnt good.

I met some challenges and went through some crap just like anyone else. None of it was easy and none of it was fun. There are things I wish I had done different. But its too late for that. Anyway

To my fam, my BFF's and all of the other people I have encountered that matter for something in this world. May you have a wonderful time and shine right into 2009.

These are just a few moments that make 2008 better than it was. Mostly from Kevins last weeks as an unmarried man (who by the way had the most epic wedding ever in September). What better way to end that than by taking a shit in the woods. I love you fam. But these are the people that got me through 2008, not all of the people but a few of them that helped along the way

I feel like I did a whole lot of nothing but did a lot of something. Have a safe transition into 09. I will be fading out 2008 with some amazing people tonight so that we may shine right into and through 2009

"10 years passed and I ended up with a house full of cats"

Right now I should be sleeping preparing myself to wake up to go fishing tomorrow, to hanging out with my family, to be excited. Instead I am miserable, not in the keys with my family instead stuck in NY. I have spent the last few days arguing with my dad, getting guilt trips from him and my brother because I am not where they are. I tried. I had it planned and the plans didnt stay due to circumstances and situations. I have attempted to find plane tickets and make a plan but nothing seems to be working. Instead its 230am and I am listening to music that dosent help the mood and writing on this wretched thing. Infact I did find a good priced flight but, the old man was more occupied with guilt trips than helping me out like he offered. Instead of great here lets get it I got "I am out catching up with some friends and watching football like we should be, I will call you later" Thanks, that line has been going over and over in my head driving me nuts.

I guess this is just life. Its passing by slowly and surely. Thank god for friends. Friends are the one thing that keeps my head up. I am having a moment right now.

Best quote for today "You can not predict your past by the future"


I have been going back to this picture a lot today. Its a good one. One from a time when we had some many less worries. When life was just that much simpler. Just to think this is only a few short years ago, if I am thinking straight right now I want to say maybe 4 years ago give or take. The best part is these people are still in my life. Love you fam

Either I am not drinking enough or I am drinking too much I havent quite figured that one out yet

My head hurts

I am thinking too much

Snowed in

So after a few days of being snowed in and slowly losing my mind while arguing with this guy, putting him on time outs and finding poo in the bath tub. I made it as far as the court yard outside my front door to take some snaps of the first good snow fall. This cat belongs to my roommate and sometimes it feels like you are chasing a child who just learned to walk. Anyone want a 6 year old Russian Blue? Dont let the face fool you, he likes to attack when you least expect it.

Sorry Matt I went there. You know I wouldnt give this little bastard away. But he would look good as a rug.

In the last 3 days we have managed to get about 13 or so inches of snow if not more. Thats just my uneducated guess. This is the courtyard just outside my front door.

This mighty mighty Hudson River out my window. PCB's anyone? Who wants a third arm from that river?

Again my not so artsy photo form of the courtyard. I am just too lazy to go outside.
Enjoy my boringness

Dream Date Forever

Alicia Keys is one hot momma. Yea hot momma. She could sit on a beach in a not so sexy bikini all day every day holding a fork and it still wouldnt matter. She will always be gorgeous. If she just gave me the chance to serenade her with her own song she would understand. Baby I could sing "No One" to you like no other. Maybe someday you will realize I am the man of your dreams! Some day, I know it. Just some day.



Creepiest post of the year.

In the Midst of a Snow Storm

I have had all day to go stir crazy, clean my house,talk to the deer head on the wall, argue with my roommates cat and even put him in time out for a while. But in the mix of all of this joy and pacing around my house with out cable I managed to watch the Big Lebowksi and a Hank Williams biography and marinate some steaks. So on that note I think I may have won today.

I have some of this deliciousness

And some of this deliciousness

Yep I won big time

SNL on David Patterson

While most websites have removed this skit because they found it offensive, as well as you tube I found one they missed. This does and can push the line of inappropriate, but holy shit is this funny. Quite frankly, with all the shit he is proposing to do with tax hikes, education cuts and health care cuts in New York state I find this to be ok to do. Anyway enjoy

Some songs sum up life

This song sums it all up for me. Tragic, sad and unpredictable. Other times my job dosent help much either especially around the holidays. If it wasn't for my friends I wouldn't be where I am today. I have had too much time to think and just worked 27 of the last 30 days. Thank you and good night.

Tap the Rockies

For those of you who havent realized it, I will tell you. This is delicious and most people over look it because of its step sister Coors Light.

This is a fine tasting beverage.

A better time and place....

When life was so worry free. If I could go back in time and relive the moment......

This past week and the gathering of the Turkey fam faders

Beautiful Pa Pa Jer freeze frame for life

This past week was amazing. I cant wait to get my hands on more pictures of the times that had been had. Saw lots of awesome faces and heard lots of amazing voices of people that I just dont get enough of any more. Thank you fam faders for always being fam faders and always being the same. And J.C. I am not being creepy? Can we stretch? My friends keep me sane. Pictures will never do justice to the amazing moments that were had. So much in so little time.
