Raising the bar

The beard was getting out of hand. Looked like I was growing a fucking chia pet out of my face. So I had to part with it today. But just as every person before me who has shaved off a beard, I had to do this. It will be gone in a few minutes. Enjoy.

Exposed!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So I got myself a new camera yesterday and have gone straight to work with it.(and yes I know, I need to learn how to re-size images, gimme a break, it is my first digi, I will grasp it all in the next few days). Victim number 1.... my roommate Steve. Steve just turned 33 on Monday. He has a girlfriend, owns a house, a car, and has even had sex. Why do I tell you these things? because this is what his room looks like.......








Sickening!!!!

Next up...... Nikky scores some of the hugest points in history for showing up at my door with this........



Seriously that thing weighs almost as much as I do. It is like fat guy gold. She truly is amazing. And although I have laryngitis and bronchitis, that is way better to me than medicine.

And finally. The beard. I have been too lazy to shave since new years. This is the trainwreck that is me.....

The begining of the end?

Today I decided to finally get on top of my tattoo game. Feb.11 is when we start the upper half of my left sleeve. I am stoked beyond belief. It has been too long since the last one. The goal is to have both arms completely done by Christmas of this year. And next year is for back of hands, neck, and knuckles. In the words of Lee Tully "what was your new years resolution, to see how quick you can look like a criminal?" I got quite the laugh out of that. It was Hambone that got me thinking when he said that he covered himself in tattoos to avoid ever having to work a desk job and just work harder to get rad jobs. So this is me going for broke... in all senses of the phrase.
This beard is brutal.

A little late

Scott suggested I give my tops list for 2007, here it is, a little late, but who really gives a shit.

I hate putting shit in numerical order so I am just going to list what I thought was best.

Albums:
Exodus- The atrocity exhibition: exhibit A
Down- III: Over The Under
Fall Out Boy- Infinity on high
High on Fire- Death is this communion
Ringworm- The venomous grand design
Kanye West- Graduation
Machine Head- The Blackening

Experiences:
The trip to Montreal and Jersey. I drove a ton even though Jackie will tell you otherwise.
Hanging in Toronto with my hetero lifemate.

All in all 2007 was pure shit for the most part. 2008 can only be better, and so far it is definitely shaping up that way. Frankly anyone who stands in the way of that is gonna get their clock cleaned. A new Fat Mat for 2008.
