So the fourth is quickly approaching, and i don’t know about everybody else, but i’m getting super excited. I was thinking, we usually go to Ohio for fireworks, but…i’m currently alot of states away, and what if other states have bigger, badder fireworks? I mean, two inch mortars are cool, but how much cooler would three inch be? I have been working alot, and don’t have much time to spend on the net, and i know some of y’all are better at researching things than i am, so any help with this would be appreciated. Lets make The Cat’s first 4th one to remember. I can’t wait to see that little guy with a roman candle in his hand.

Also, why am i having such a hard time posting pics on here? Tried to put one up i took of the shuttle launch, but kept getting error messages. Give me a hand, computer dudes.

So once again this year, i am broke at Christmastime, and feel like a dork. When i was trying to figure out what to get everyone, i decided to take the old advice that if you dont know what to get someone, get something that you would want yourself. So i have assembled a collection of some of my favorite music of all time, wrapped it up and put in in a bag. The only one with a name on it is for Felix. Sorry Mia and Joel, looks like you guys get last pick. And sorry Dayna, but theres no new kids on this playlist. Merry Christmas everyone!

Felix the Cat was a kick ass cartoon from the 20’s, and a cool name for a kid. if you name your child felix, i will probably get this tattoo

so im working in this hotel and we are working at night and its kind of hard to fit meals into my schedule. there isnt a kitchen in my room, and going out to eat all the time isnt smart. so before the next big job im thinking about buying a blender and making smoothies all the time. Does anybody have any good recipies? (or smoothie blends, mixtures, idk what you’d call it)

So has anybody heard from Gerald? Is he going to be making an appearance at Wrightsville this year? I was hoping to run into him on the 4th of July, but i didnt see him around anywhere…

Just booked a flight. Set to arrive at ILM with Khara on friday the 14th at 11:24 pm. Gotta leave on friday the 21st at 2:35pm. This year is going to be the best one yet. Can’t wait to see yall.

So one day im at the gas station, and this drunk and homeless looking mexican comes up to me, he can hardly speak english, yet alone speak at all, and i can tell hes asking for a ride into New Mexico (which is literally 5 mins away). i tell him im going the other way, and he goes away. Im almost done pumping my gas, and he comes back. i say ok, but he thought i said no again, and goes away. so when i go to leave, i yell vamanos, and wave him over. he grabs his sack of cans, hops in, and puts on his seat belt.. we are driving down the road, and hes muttering shit i cant really understand, plus i cant hear real well since i put both windows down as soon as he got in the truck cause of the smell. all of a sudden he starts reaching around in his pocket, and im like great, here we go, so i reach around to my back pocket for my knife. he fumbles around for another few seconds, then pulls out this little doll, calmly sets it on my dashboard, and says "i love you man". blew my mind. stuff like that happens every day down here, if you let it.

so i have been trying to post some pics for three or four days now, and every time i try to upload, it says there has been an internal server error. can anybody help me out?
