Sleepbroke.
for some unknown reason, i thought it’d be a great idea to jailbrake my iphone tonight. also, i wanted to get more sleep than last night. negative. those two actions did not mix well. not back to my old ways but not where i want to be either. coffee will be my friend tomorrow.
i’m listening to the rest of this gambino vinyl before bed. i knew that monster at 7 wasn’t a good idea. i’m getting pretty sleepy though. thankfully. right now i’m on “that power.” i like the story at the end of the record. i’ll probably end up posting the lyrics to it at the end of this. i enjoyed my weekend. friday was a lot of fun. it seems like the...
I’ve been living inside my head too much lately.

okay so a blog written by my friend josh inspired me to get a twitter. keep in mind i have been against twitter pretty much since day one. the idea of it seemed pointless. after all, i have facebook; isn’t that good enough? anyway i read his blog and decided what can it hurt? i might as well try it. it’s actually not that bad. it’s pretty simple to use, and there are only a few...
I don’t know if I’d ever describe a fruit snack as mouth-watering. Seriously though, when’s the last time you said, “Dude, put those fruit snacks away; my mouth is watering! Those things look delicious!”
NBA All-Star Picks
East- Rose, Rondo, LeBron, Melo, and Dwight Howard
West- Kevin Love, Blake Griffin, Bynum, Monta,and Chris Paul. It was hard to leave Durant off. Love has been a beast. MVP season for sure. 25 and 15 is crazy!
Wildcard Weekend
i’m confident in my picks: pittsburgh over denver, cincy over houston, new orleans over detriot, and atlanta over ny giants. i don’t feel there is a clear favorite going into the playoffs. i think every team has weaknesses. right now the ravens look the best in the afc, and the packers or saints would be tops in the nfc for me. really looking forward to trash talking with scott this...

ABR Christmas Show
i was waaaay too tired to mention anything about this the other night. we rolled in at 6am after driving to virginia (oops, missed the exit), having some (kinda odd) guy talk to us at a diner about his el camino, and my navigation system on my phone got cancelled between the start and end of the show. it was a different ride home, but i enjoyed it. experiences like this is what will give us...
Movies of '11
i’m gonna keep this pretty simple. thought i’d share some movies i liked from the past year: Just Go With It, Bridesmaids, The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, and Horrible Bosses.
my favorite movie is clear-cut. i really like 50/50. i think it is a fantastic movie. it’s funny, dramatic, and you have some romance thrown in. i’m really looking forward to it coming out on dvd...

To All My Friends and Family,
i was reflecting a little on the drive home tonight while listening to “montreal” by the weeknd on repeat. this has been a crazy year for me. i’ve seen my fair share of lows and highs. it’s definitely been a roller coaster ride during the past twelve months. i’ll be unwrapping some awesome christmas gifts christmas eve night, at least i hope they’re awesome....
State of Music
i really feel like most of today’s generation is missing out on good, quality music. you can have absolutely no talent whatsoever and manage to land a record deal. wait, what? how is that even possible? i think there are a few reasons people are missing out.
stuck in one genre. i get it; you like (insert musical genre). that’s cool and all, but you really should try expanding your...
expect much love from me about the weeknd tonight. echoes of silence dropped. he does a cover of michael jackson’s “dirty diana” to start thing off. wow, to say he does it justice is an understatement. he really makes it his own. something that can’t always be said about a cover song.
