For the past 5.5 months I have developed some habits I am not happy with, nor proud of.
I won’t disclose, but I will confirm they were directly related to an event that occurred in June.
It’s funny – a traumatic event occurs and your life is not the same.
In my case, I developed bad habits. Initially, they don’t start out that way. You

I didn’t come up with the title, its the name of the photo by jona bechtolt It’s also very descriptive of where I am and where i have been as of late.

I’m not going to say things have been easy or hard, they have just been. In any case, I feel like I am at the end of it. I have given up some things, closed the door on others and gotten pretty angry for a bit. It’s good to get angry. In fact, I think it is positively, fucking brilliant to get pissed every now and then.

Now, that all of that is over and that I am cleansed, get to smiling and being absolutely, positively happy.

yo – finally got to 2k followers on Twitter

Woo

Hoo

!!!

i know it is super geeky and matches that wrestling outfit from bantu’s post but i am down with this! take that

Uh oh, i don’t even know what to say or what to…i’m out of breath from running around the house laughing after 3 minutes of trying to tear my eyes out. enjoy

stop beating around the bush and start spreading the love

its time to forget who hurt who, that he did that, that she did dinner with whomever

it is TIME to start thinking about what

or

who

is next in this wonderful world

so, before you sit back in your chair, coffee in hand, gray all around….

get up, walk a few feet and TOUCH someone

Richard Renaldi’s Touching Strangers series is amazing.

asking strangers to not only pose but to touch each other is absolutely, friggin riddddiculously brilliant

get at it!

yes you can

get over a heartache

get over a heartbreak

get over the loss of love…

Case in point, one heartbroken Kanye West. One Mr West who lost his mother and dealt with a breakup in a short amount of time.

808’s and Heartbreak, his upcoming album is wrought with pain, with sorrow and the painful poignant moments that make up a breakup.

His first two tracks Heartless and Love Lockdown tear you up inside. So much so, when I tried to do a post on Heartless and really opened up RAW, Bantu called, text and called me again within 30 minutes to see what he could do to stop my pain.

That post has since been deleted

but this one will not go the same route

Feast your ears on “Amazing” featuring Young Jeezy and plenty of Auto-Tune.

Download your copy here.

You’ve surely read or seen “Charlie and the Chocolate Factory” and “James and the Giant Peach” – both products of the imagination of one Roald Dahl. When Vogue UK decided to transform some of his works into photos, they tapped one of today’s most incredible imagineers – Tim Burton.

The photo shoot titled “Tales of the Unexpected” brings to life some of Dahl’s work and essentially sweeps da leg on anyone even thinking of being creative.

I used to believe in many things but those days are gone…. I now believe in the unexpected, in creativity and in those who long for a life less ordinary.

Be sure to read the quotes and enjoy….

hold it now….

I am generally not a fan of cats but when you throw karate, looting for fish and the old follow the light trick – you got me sold.

I am 100% a fan now!

Maybe it was bantu’s post today or maybe i just like crazy ass stuff. In either case – take that

What is beauty?

Not the show of shapely limbs and features.
No.
These are but flowers
That have their dated hours

To breathe their momentary sweets, then go.
‘Tis the stainless soul within
That outshines the fairest skin.
–SIR A. HUNT

for NO on 8 and yes on Obama….

it is time to smile cuz the results will soon be in

don’t have anything to smile about this very second?

Well, let me show you a little sesame street clip (that’s right bantu! a sesame street clip!!!) featuring the count and susan sarandon

so…without further ado
