You want a job, a vacation, heath insurance, validation, a back rub, a scalp massage at the place where you get your haircut, people who are jealous of you, an ex who won’t stop texting you when they’re drunk, Twitter followers, happiness maybe sorta, someone to buy you lunch at a fancy restaurant, a mentor who can tell you what the hell to do with your life, a reliable internet connection, a reliable human connection, a gift card to the grocery store, dinner parties with friends where everyone will pretend to have their crap together for just one night, a nice flirty text message to wake up to every morning for the rest of your life, for everyone to like you even if you don’t like anyone, and one of those nights that doesn’t end till 9 AM and reminds you what it feels like to be young and alive.

Hi there!
A Canon 60D for video and digital, a Holga 120 for film, and a Polaroid Sx-70 for instant are my top three.

Tommy, a man at the end of his rope, unable to provide for the woman he loves, decides to rob a stranger. The rest of the movie is really dumb and it’s about pockets.

In preparation for all the sweet ice cream we are going to eat tomorrow. And for all the dancing to this song we are going to do tomorrow.

Just like any road trip, it was full of disposable cameras, pop punk, stops at big lots, dogs, running on rail roads, and cartwheels under electric towers.

Last night I went with Dave Geis to see Princeton at The Bootleg theater and accidentally arrived two hours early (all Dave’s fault).
BUT luckily it was worth it, because we ended up seeing this band. I’m not sure listening to this will do their performance justice, but just seeing what looked like Highschoolers with a really good sense of humor preform doo-wop and sing about tears evaporating, was the highlight of my night.
You can DL their music for free on Facebook.
This is also what I was listening to when Dave Seger drove by me on sunset, moments ago.

Thank you again to everyone who came out to celebrate with my buddy Kipper and I for our double birthday party last night! I had a goddamned blast.
So, as everyone knows, I am weird and can’t have a regular birthday like a normal adult. I like to have some sort of twist or theme for my birthday party; last year, I asked everyone to anonymously write down a secret they had never told anyone else. It was fun, it was weird, it was hilarious and eye-opening. People got some shit off their chests and got a free drink in the process. Boom. BDAY PARTY MAGIC.
This year, the twist was obvious: it’s 2012 after all, and the world is going to end in less than 12 months. So, I asked everyone to make a “Birthday Party Death Face”; when the Apocalypse comes, how you gonna go out?! Fire? Flood? Fighting off zombies with a giant machete?!!? The possibilities of how the world is going to end are horrific and endless - AND HERE’S HOW EVERYONE’S GONNA LOOK WHEN IT GOES DOWN:
Aaron is so creative with his birthdays. I’ve been to the last two, and love both ideas. I’m lucky to have such a cool neighbor.

In the summer of 2010 I flew to North Carolina and spent 2 weeks with my friends and bandmates from the Woods. It was a wonderful time spent with people I don’t get to see often enough. We wrote and recorded six short songs together- I feel the first real collaborative effort we’ve made since living in Tallahassee together (we came out with an EP a couple years ago, each member contributing their part over the internet). It has a different feel than our previous stuff and I really love it. The project is called Tiny Ridge Walkers, having to change our name because of the popularity of another band called Woods.
It’s a free download from bandcamp, so I hope you take some time to listen to it and share it with your friends if you like it. Thanks!
My roommate Dave is the coolest. This is his band, and they make really incredible beautiful music. You should listen to this.
