I'm pretty much over shit.

Kind of want to get my life back on track. Hanging with Duranko and Jay today. Put out a new EP. Getting a haircut from Erika on French Friday, then hanging out with Josh and Duke. Got a new job, wearing a shirt and tie and stuff. Going to New York with Adam. Going to K-Zoo with Relationships possibly. Playing a show on Monday. Eating 2 dollar pizza again. Chris Putts new Keystone EP, whoa. Yeah, cool. I'm stoked.

Self destruction.

A lot of my friends are contemplating dropping out or not enrolling in school and I've realized this as a trend in a lot of kids who don't want to "conform" to the popular image of college life. But what I'm waiting for is the one kid that's gonna be like,"I'M GONNA GET A DOCTORATE! FUCK THE SYSTEM!"

Jidai Matsuri (時代祭り) Festival, Japan

The Jidai Matsuri (時代祭り) or the “Festival of the Ages” is held every October 22 in Kyoto, Japan. In celebration of the anniversary of the foundation of Kyoto, over 2,000 participants dress in costumes from various periods of Kyoto’s 1,200 year history and transport a portable shrine called a mikoshi from Kyoto Gosho (京都御所 Kyoto Imperial Palace) to the Heian Jingu Shrine.

Instagrammers at yesterday’s festival captured beautiful scenes throughout the parade. Be sure to check out the hashtags #jidaimatsuri, and #時代祭 for more!

I don't want to freak anyone out...

So today, my friend Cody from Dads Makin' Out came over and Cody doesn't wear underpants. So i was wearing this uncomfortable like torn boxers because they were the only ones I had that were clean. Anyway, he's like dude, ditch em. My initial reaction is like naw dawg. I can't. But these undies were so uncomfortable that I'm like, fuck it. I ditch the shorts and go boxer less. We head out to the bar and get drinks, still free here. Never have I ever felt so alive. Boxerless and free. I stood taller, laughed harder, was less constricted. Finally, I get home, get ready to disrobe for bed and I figure, hey, no underpants, whateves. Now, I'm in my bed, nude, listening to the new Relationships album and googling cats. Fuck, this is comfy.

So like what's the ducking feal with bikes?

[imstalin-blog]

So my family got together the other night to watch the Olympics. I on the other hand, sat in my sisters basement and got drunk and ate Thai Food. Crisis averted.

[imstalin-blog]

So I get some shitty news, go out and drink. Then the shitty news, doubles, I drink more when I get home. I want to sleep, but I'm kind of afraid that, tomorrow, when I wake up, there will be more of the worst news I've ever had. Then when it's all said and done, I'll be here with my Cat Mascot in the lonely Olympics. Plus, my job is kind of miserable.

Is it okay to ask someone to call me, or something? I could use that...
