There will be days

when you can't make up your mind
or walk in a straight line
or find a fence to climb

there will be days
when people talk too loud
and all you see are clouds
and no one is allowed

there will be days
when no one calls you back
and everything is black
and you feel like you are cracked

and there will be nights
when you wish that it was day

how are you supposed to be happy

when everything in the world is sad

Movie Plot

Hypnotist Babysitter

Ghost Be My Friend

Bring me my toothbrush, loaded with toothpaste
Clear my bed of bags and shoes and a helmet
Cut off my clothes, leave me naked and cool
Turn off the light, shut the door
Cover me in blankets and breathe upon my face

Nacho Diaries 3

Pepito's Nachos
These are "authentic" nachos... individual chips with your choice of meat or beans and cheese. The chips are large and oblong with a taste and texture that resembles a breakfast pastry as much as a tortilla chip. The meat... chicken or pork is well-seasoned and prepared. There is not an overabundance of cheese which is a definite plus. They're a bit on the pricy side... I don't know if Pepito's has a happy hour price, but that would be nice. Also, there is a definite lack of veggies and variety of toppings.
Grade: B

Bar Abilene Nachos
I went to Bar Abilene to try out their amazing happy hour. I was planning on trying their guacamole, but the waiter recommended the nachos so I got them. Chips, chili, refried beans, lettuce, cheese, side of salsa, guacamole, and sour cream. I believe there were a few diced jalapenos too. It's really a pretty incredible deal for only $4.50. There was quite a bit of chili and beans which got a little heavy and soggied up the chips a little, but I never got to a point where I ran out of chips while having tons of leftover toppings. The amount of cheese was perfect. The salsa was fairly bland. I'm a fan.
Grade: B+

Is It Too...

Lazy American

My remote wasn't working, so instead of getting out of bed to turn on the TV, I reprogrammed the remote using the instructions that I keep in my nightstand drawer for instances like this. Ahh Dexter.

How Long...




I was just trying to see how long it would take for the stupid baby robins to get out of the nest on the porch. Answer: 2 weeks.

Seis de Mayo

Today was a good day.
I watched several episodes of the Wire while it rained this morning.
I also experience acupuncture for the first time. Someone put a bird over my chestbird's head. I felt really sad, but it was beautiful. I feel like the needles turned my physical and mental ailments into emotional ailments. It was beautiful, really.

Then I went to a Cinco De Mayo party. There were pretty girls there. I ate 3 tacos and lots of chips. I made some margaritas. I got a really good backrub. Etc etc worddd
