smooth shoes and cool tattoos...

clicky on over to my myspace to see the new tattoo.

be jealous. i am awesome.

COUGH! COUGH!!

Ok we all knew it was comming. I'm sick. The temprature jumped up and down 10 degrees and it caused my immune system to turn off and now I'm plugged up, coughing, have a sore throat and all that good stuff. I will now be sick (in some way shape or form) until May.


I hope the symptoms of Fall-itus back off a bit for some of the parties comming up. Namely...

Amy & Co's Move In Party
The Halloween Party (Location to be determined)
Dianna's Birthday (Bash?)
Eric's Welcome-The-Fuck-Back-And-Don't-Ever-Do-That-Again Party

On a side not my phone's battery died and refueses to charge with the phone turned on and randomly stops charging. I may be hard to reach today. Which is ok cause I'm dying and annoyed.

"Owen Meany" and another reason why nashville is amazing

so, my friend Russ manages a band called Underoath. some of you may have heard of them. but i doubt that any of you are fans of their music, because, as Andrea would probably put it: "they scream a whole lot" (or something to that effect).
=)

anyway, this band does pretty well for itself. well enough that they are opening for Thrice (again, you may or may not have heard of them). well enough that they have their own tour bus. well enough that they've got a video or two on mtv from time to time. but enough of that...

so my friend russ has been put in a position financially where that is the only thing that he does for a living. which is pretty sweet for someone who's 22. he gets to tour the world and see awesome bands and meet famous people for a living. well, russ is in town for a week and he's going to BUY ME A NEW TATTOO THIS WEEK. either tuesday or wednesday. i'll have a pic of it up by the end of the week.

oh, yeah... and someone might be going on tour with said band in december.

hahaha.

The Castle

real quick... i just wanted to let you all know that as of this time tomorrow, you can all be incredibly jealous of me? more so than you are now. and why? because i get to RECORD at The Castle. seriously. take a look at who all has recorded here.

"now, rob, i didn't know you had a band." i don't. but my good friend steve short is the producer and engineer there. aside from those things, he has a phenomenal ear and plays a pretty mean guitar. so, we're gonna play and put something down.

seriously, aside from being completely impressed and a bit intimidated by this prospect, i'm beyond excited.

Pictures anyone?

Ok here's some funny/cool images I've found....


This was in the latest issue of Time Magazine so I cut it out and scanned it...


This was in an online group that was debating evolution and creationism.

Nooooooo.....

So get this... Season 2 of BSG is being broken down into two parts. This friday is the "Summer Finale" and is going to pick up again in JANUARY!!! Nooooooo!!! It's not fair!!!

But there is a bonus here. Ready? I can get EVERYONE caught up! yay!!! Craig can see Season 1 and the parts of Season 2 that have aired. Everybody else can see the Season two stuff they missed.

So whateva to you Season 2 Part 2! Face!

Damnit!!

My brother came down on Friday night. Know what that means? You guessed it! I missed BSG! Noooooooo!! And Episode 9 is proving VERY elusive to download. On the upside Episode 10 is going to be amazing! They find another Battlestar, the "Pegasus". I'm very excited. They even put a warning on the website for people that program their VCRs that it was going to run over the normal length. I'm so glad they don't sacrifice the story upon the altar of the timeslot. :)

BSG Season 1 comes out on Tuesday!!!!!!! WOOT!

BSG Season 1, Episode 1 won the Hugo Award* for best dramatic presentation.

On a side note, Harry Potter IV is likely going to be the first in the series to be rated PG-13.

*The Hugo Awards are the most prestigious awards given out in the fields of Sci-Fi and fantasy

I'm here!

Still alive, still no Interweb. I was planning on ordering a wireless card tonight, but the stoopid site was giving me shit about my Visa authentication, so now I have to wait for Paypal to transfer funds from my checking account before I can order the damn thing. Sigh.

Oh, and I also attended the daquiri party, and had a few drinks myself. It was quite fun actually. :)

Drew Blazo - Amature Plumber

So la-te-da a shotglass exploded in the garbage disposal. So who had to take it apart and dig out all the glass shards? Oh it was me. That's right. Fuck you garbage disposal!

I win! I fucking win! *Thrusts fists in the air*

Am I working?

The correct answer is NO! Here's why...

Almost two weeks ago we start staining a deck that's 45min away in Howell. We wasted the first day staining it the wrong color. Then the next day we got the right color but left the cans with the color code out there (that's still two weeks agoish).

So last night Brian tells me he's got the code and I can just go up there and stain all day. Which I would have loved. I made a CD, I was ready to just have a relaxing day working by myself and getting somthing done. So I go to the paint store and they say "That's not the right code" and "We need the tint number on the can too". So I was like "Shit". Alicia and I called it a day and I went home. This isn't working for me being poor and everything, or for Brian not losing money on this particular job.

Post Daq Party...

So I'll just post my things about the party and everyone else who cares to can post their stories as comments amending this post. :)

First off I picked up Jordan from the UofM game... But also picked up a lost and drunk fan who needed a ride to yah-yah's because he couldn't get ahold of his "granny" suffice it to say he was VERY funny.

Then Jordan and I drank lemonade and citrus vodka waiting for everyone else to get their behinds in gear and get over.

Played some Beer-Pong (courtesy of Craigs closet door) and I kicked ass and won every game. Jordan refused to play with me for a while because of my awsomeness.

Played some Beer-Darts and kicked ass again. Jordan was pissed. Technicaly he won because I got tired of playing and wanted to do somthing else. :-P

I passed out around 2am. Woot.

VERY successful party. I recomend that future parties, be located here as well. :)

Oh my Gods!!

Two things...

One - BSG
Ok I thought this episode was gonna be a stupid sucky plotless episode. But as it turns out it guest stared Lucy Lawless (aka Zena) and revealed a new Cylon!! It was brillant!! Ok maybe not brillant, but it was a damn sight better then I thought it'd be. I just wrote about it in my other blog, so if you want to know who the cylon is zip on over. If not... then wait paitently!

Two - Comment Bullshit
So we've been getting spam comments so I've set it so that you have to do a word verification before posting a comment. This will still allow random people to post comments but will weed out automated comment posting programs such as we've been seeing lately.

When I asked my neighbor if she'd mind us partying she said and I quote "Oh honey! You make all the noise you can!" So there you have it.
