thank God for good people

I watched a person in a car hand an intersection panhandler a big bag of kettle popcorn and cash money.

thank God for good people that exist in this world.  It makes up for people like me.

punk rock saves lives

punk rock saves my life

The Descendents

this is great timing. just what I needed at this point in my early onset midlife crisis. an opportunity to momenatrily recapture the passion of my disgruntled youth through angsty punk rock and having physical violence inflicted upon and by me.

   

marry this kinda person

whoever signaled the parking stall was full by parking their motorcycle so far forward is marriage material.

god damn hero.

note to self: create popular board game

midlife crisis kickoff

I turned 35 and it took a while but i think the existential dread is starting to kick in. Along with the depression and thoughts of impending old age/death comes the frantic, poorly thought-out coping mechanisms and grasps at receding youth.

Indian night

those indian recipes were kicking my ass. 

 

 

then i started drinking wine.  that helped. 

then I drank some more and this beautiful naan resulted

I'm.. meh

terns > people

we were threatened with arrest because an endangered white tern momentarily flew away from its designated tree (signified by blue tape) because our first amendment free speech chanting was allegedly too loud.

at the same time, our elected leaders banned laying down on public sidewalks and passed laws to take and throw away homeless peoples property.

this explains a lot

this explains everything really.

I need to stop being so cheap and just buy the pre-cut stuff and pay the $0.80/pound premium.

530am

I keep waking up at 530am for an unknown reason. is God trying to tell me something?

whatever it is, I dont want to hear it. just let me get some goddamn sleep. 

"Tolerhate"

definition: a thing you generally dislike but appreciate or tolerate or suffer through because you recognize its positive attributes or benefits. 

subtle art... p. 38

A philosophical subtlety that became obvious only when framed this way in black and white:

"everything comes with an inherent sacrifice - whatever makes us feel good will also make us inevitably feel us bad.  What we gain is also what we lose.  What creates our positive experiences will define our negative experiences".

Examples provided: buying that house that you have to pour money to repair and maintain, marrying that person you love and struggling to continue that love for 20 years.

miyazaki

hobbies: reading, pottery, surfing... art collecting.
