Tonight


Was awesome. Seeing a bunch of my friends taking time out their Saturday night to come see my band play for the first time made me super happy (for those who are reading this who came, thank you so much! Especially Kim for taking pictures), and it made me happy making new friends from the other bands! I was pretty stoked on how we sounded also, pretty solid considering we've only been writing and practicing for 3 - 4 weeks. People seemed to like us, and we're gonna try and hit the studio to record a demo as soon as possible, as well as schedule more shows this month!

To Peeps Who Follow Me on Here:

To the few friends who follow me on here, if any of you aren't going to the beach on June 11th, you're invited to come check out my band Basement Dweller, we're playing at my friends house that night. Just lemme know if you're interested and I'll hook you up with an address!

If every day of summer could be like yesterday I'd be really happy.

Woke up late, after having an actually decent night's sleep. Showered, had some lunch with my mom, and just chilled around the house till about 3:30ish. At about that time, I picked up my buddy Ricardo and we rolled downtown to go to the river with my good friends James and Morris. Even though it was pretty overcast and there was a huge overpopulation of annoying redneck types (not to judge, but I'm being completely honest, that's just how it was) down there, it was still super fun. We swam around for awhile and rode the currents for awhile, which was cool (and got yelled at by cops, apparently you need a lifejacket to swim more than five feet out when the river's high? Whatever). After awhile, it started getting a little darker, so we started to head back to the city itself. We hit up good ole Panda Veg for the vegan buffet, and saw some friends in there which was cool, then decided to just make it a fat day and got Coldstone after. Hell yes.
After eating to the point of discomfort, we went and hung out on James's porch to digest, and just talked for awhile which is always nice. Afterwards, me and Morris jammed and wrote a few new songs for our band Basement Dweller, which I was super excited about. I headed home after that, and met up with Kim to watch "A Clockwork Orange" and just hang out, which was really nice as always.

Awesome.

Past Few Days (Condensed)

Definitely been a really busy past few days!


My big ole head singing along

---
Sunday: Cook Out. Basement Dweller loudness/friend hangs for a bit. River (kinda a fail due to flooding but whateva, still cool). Warehouse hangs before the show. Dead End Path/Title Fight craziness. Kim crowd surfing. Sing alongs. Legit one of the best days of the summer so far.

Monday: Gaming all morning and chillin' by my lonesome, then scooped up Ace and Ricardo. Hanging at Hold it Down tattoo shop all day, talking about porn and fights and tattoos and other cool dude stuff with the people there. Bonfire later on with smores and Jackass. Definitely a good day and night.

Tuesday: River with Kim and Liz. Adventuring. Waterfalls. Walking over beaver dams. Being caught in thunderstorms. Burritos. "Nap" time. Bike rides. Downtown chillin' then Liz's place chillin'.

Wednesday: Hangin' at Kim's. Olive Garden with the madre. Deep Run Park with the girlfriend then Short Pump. Some alone time, then a quick late night hangout. Good day and night as always.

I need to figure out a way to stop being a disappointment to myself.
