  1. Gonna see The Shivas tonight at The Doug Fir Lounge in PDX. This is one of my favorite venues and they're moving to another location this summer. This video is actually filmed there. Awesome place. I hope another venue moves in.
  2. Had to get out for a hike to get out of my head. Willow was happy to help.
  3. I always wanted a Mr. T waze. Turn left Fool!
  4. I was a freshman living at Castilian when the expose came out that tabbed these "liquid crack". So we immediately when down and bought a case of the big ones. Had to put them in the freezer and drink them ice cold. They were nasty. Had some crazy assed misadventures. Ah, youth.
  5. One of the most beautiful women this planet has ever seen. RIP
  6. My father and I didn't have the best relationship. Not a bad one just a little distant. I had been feeling shame because I thought that he was ashamed of me for actions from 30 years ago. I recently had a serious romantic relationship end which caused a lot of self reflection on my part. I realized that holding on to this shame had been eating away at me and that I didn't want that burden anymore. I called my dad and told him why I had been feeling this way. I could hear him tear up on the other end of the line and he said "whatever I'd been feeling changed when I saw the man you've grown to be". The relief was immediate. I'm not letting shame hold me down anymore. I feel much closer to my father now. I guess the point is, let the kids know you love and support them. It will provide them immense relief to know that you're there for them no matter what.

  10. Saturday looks awesome. I've been wanting to see Wine Lips for a while. Canadian punk band. Don't sleep on Acid Dad either. They're great as well. Used to love Night Beats old sound. Not as in to their Nashville sound now.
  11. Good point. Always do the opposite of Costanza.
  12. Why not have the prospective buyers get into a bidding war and then still take the offer from the non-friend? Could get that $4000 difference back.

    David Crosby RIP

    This is one of my favorites.
  14. I don't know why but my FB feed is littered with Debbie/Blondie pictures and articles. I've never looked for or clicked on any related links, etc. Why does FB think that I care about her?
  15. Feels like Billy Squier needs to be included even though he's early 80's and not Southern: The Stroke Everybody Wants You Lonely Is The Night
  16. I started off with 7 layer dip as a snack but kept going and it became dinner.
  17. Wait, we had a WR coach already on staff? Why didn't we just promote him?
  18. Saturday was rough. Ordinarily, I will wake up to Willow licking my hand to let me know its time for breakfast. That didn't happen Saturday morning. I noticed it but it didn't strike me as particularly odd. She could have been playing with the boys or already fed. As I made my way downstairs her absence became obvious. She was nowhere to be found inside or out. The last time that she had been seen was around 10pm the previous night when she jumped into bed with the boys. Now I'm getting concerned. She's learned how to open the gate in the backyard if it isn't locked. Sometime between Friday night/Saturday morning she decided to go for an solo adventure. The gf, boys, and I all start combing the neighborhood. No sign of her. Her collar has my contact info engraved on it so anybody that comes across her would be able to get a hold of me. I get on my phone and start putting out missing dog posts on FB, nextdoor, the county shelter sites, etc. She is super friendly and would approach anybody that called her. She's got a chip so if she was turned in to a shelter or vet they would be able to reunite us. At this point I'm starting to think that she's either dead/injured on the side of the road or somebody has decided to keep her. She's a beautiful purebred lab from Amwell Hunting Dogs so she's obviously a pretty high priced prize. I can't just sit at the house waiting for a phone call so I start driving. For hours. I know that the odds of me finding her in this manner are pretty low. It's now 4pm and she's been gone for 18hrs. I've got a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach. She's gone. Somebody has dognapped her. Then, a phone call. "Do you have a dog named Willow?" Holy shit! Relief washes over me. I get the address and haul ass. The lady tells me that she works at a grocery store a couple of blocks away and her coworker saw a sedan stop in front of the store and drop Willow off. Her explanation seems a little shady to me but I'm so happy to have my dog back that I don't really question it. Internally, I'm like "why the fuck wouldn't someone just call me from the store? Why wait and take her home? Nobody at Safeway has a phone?" etc. This episode was fucking scary. Everybody in the house snuggles with her the rest of the night. Sunday morning I wake up to a dog licking my fingers. All is right in the world. After breakfast we load up and head out to 1000 acre dog park and splash around in the mud. She's in her happy place.
  19. They came up on my Spotify release radar. Sounded great!
