Lunar Warning!

in

Full Moon this Friday night, May 24th which means people will be acting like fools (ha! get it.. fools.. full moon) and you're patience is probably paper thin.

We can't control the moon's pull, but we have rational thoughts so be patient with your fellow manimal we're all in this shit storm together. It'll all be over soon. 

Morning Coffee Head Thoughts

in
  • Humans swarming around the condiment bar for their coffee needs reminds me of cows herding around fresh hay, pigs around a trough, and bees buzzing around a hive.
  • Bon Iver is still my go to grey day music. ​
  • If the steady continues I may finally get my "rainy, cartoon chill day" I've so desperately wanted lately.​
  • "Lump Sum" by officially my favorite track by Bon Iver. ​
  • The coffee shop I work at is completely too small for the amount of traffic that passes through. ​
  • I often wonder what kind of things future civilizations will look back at in a couple hundred years and think "why would they have ever done that?" ​

BBC: Life In The Undergrowth

in

Smoggie Catt and I have started watching an old BBC documentary ​series called: Life in the Undergrowth. 

​Holy Shit is it in awe inspiring! We've only finished one of five episodes, but the amazing feats these creatures endure to mate, survive, and thrive is mind blowing. 

Put aside your phobia of bugs and watch this series and maybe you'll find yourself with more respect for the little critters we so quickly stomp beneath our feet.

Gummy Worms

My coworker brought in a huge bag of gummy worms. I have made it my civil duty to eat as many as possible.

Also, gummy worms are probably the most fun food to play with.​ They have all the pretty colors of jello without the awkward mouth feels. 

Espresso And Morning Words

in ,

Since moving to Portland I have increased my espresso intake 100 fold. I have also come to the conclusion I do not like Starbucks espresso at all.

I have to add mad amounts of cinnamon and half & half to give an appealing taste; where most local shops I can drink my americano as is.​

​I can't wait for people to hear the music works. It's matured a lot since the Nausicaa days, but still does what Nausicaa does best.

Cody has been writing some insanely amazing riffs and Adam's drumming is more tamed than ever before and as you probably know; the only things scarier than an angry bear is an angry bear held in a cage. 

​All and all the music is giving me all the feels, and I can't wait to share it with everyone.  Also I plan to post a snapshot of my book tonight after work. So be on the lookout for that.

Snails and Rain

in

The rain clouds have returned to Portland, Oregon and all the neighborhood snails are making the migration across the great concrete plain. ​

These aren't the best pictures as I was in a hurry. I'll try to document their great migration at a later time. They were very magnificent creatures nonetheless.
