I recently downloaded 2 Manitas De Plata (little hands of silver) albums, both Murder City Devils albums (thought I had them but I couldnt find my copies), both Three Inches of Blood albums, and the new Black Dahlia Murder album called 'Miasma.' Manitas De Plata is an amazing gypsy flamenco guitarist, the successor of Django Reinhardt as the king of gypsy musicians. Everybody and their mother should check him out!
Working at the Holiday Inn has been going quite well but I've become quite a slacker lately. I love my jobs anyways. I've gotten the audit down to half an hour and I have total freedom so long as I get my work done - that means 7.5 hours of paid free time a night. Add health benefits to that and how could you say no?
I did some thinking lately about Katie Kennedy (or, uhh...fuck...uhhhhh..Betzel?) - I've only recently become aware of the fact that I ended things not truly out of a fear of growing up to be like Tom, her father, out of fear of changing too much for somebody, I did it because I wasn't ready for what I asked for and I was too selfish to change. It is no longer discomforting to me to think that if I hadn't done what I did I would be a married man now - while I miss what we had I am glad I'm not married - I only regret any pain I may have caused.
I have been reading more, and excercising. I'm considering joining a gym but I'm unsure still. I don't know if I can afford it or if I'll end up going enough to make it worth it. Along the health tip I really ought to quit drinking so much, quit smoking, quit doing so many drugs, start keeping a regular sleep schedule and eating three square a day at least - I only really want the last two though.
I've been going out more lately, going to more parties and shows and just generally being more social, which is a good thing I think. I have met some rad people and had some rad times lately. I have even met a few cute girls and gotten a few dates - nothing serious, just casual dating - which is exactly what I want right now.
I'm getting back onto a zen kick lately which I think coincides with my increased learning lately - one must learn to never be entirely content, for as soon as that happens one stops striving for more and grows stagnant. Cerebral dystrophy is for real yo - use it or lose it!
My birthday is in exactly 1 month.
