Why didn't I know about this when I was in Spain?!?!

OK seriously... This video is not for the weak of heart, especially those who aren't too good at heights. Still, you have to be amazed at the beauty and the sheer WTF-ness of this place. I honestly don't know if I have the cajones to attempt this.

Buckshot and me

Buckshot and me

Why couldn't i get a friendly sounding horse, like Angel or Destiny. I get the name of the business parts of a shotgun. Luckily he only tried to buck me off once. That is, when he wasn't ignoring my commands by stopping and munching on grass.

Two days later, and the places where the sun don't shine are still a little sore. I won't go into details, but needless to say, I won't be doing yoga anytime soon.

A little stressed

Soon, I will have to do something that I am really not looking forward to having to do. Someone's feelings are (very likely) going to be hurt, but I really have to do this. The one consolation that I will give myself is that it's better I do it now rather than later.

My jello-filled puppy

This is my puppy. My puppy is filled with delicious little cups of flan. While entirely artificial tasting, my puppy-flan smells delicious. My puppy is holding a little bone. It's not a real bone. The head of my puppy screws off to allow for easy access to its flan-tastic treats. Also, my puppy has a coin slot on the top of its canine head which allows me to use it as a doggy-bank once I've devoured its gelatinous innards. I love my flan-puppy.

I suck

Has it really been FIVE months since I've blogged? Dude, what the heck have I been doing all this time?? Well, rather than rehash the last half year of my life, I will simply pretend I was abducted by aliens from Alpha Centauri where I was subjected to a variety of grueling experimentation involving implements of shocking usage. I'll leave it at that, but rest assured, all bodily functions have been restored now and I am free to blog on oblivious to my previous plight.

Well, one major event that has happened recently is that my homie Snay (aka Nay-Nay, aka The Tall Scary One) has relocated semi-permanently to S'pore. So this is a shout-out (remember those?) to Snay... Holla at ya, girl!

More of a test really, but I wanted to share this. What your optic receptors are perceiving right now is a Honda Integra (Acura RSX) Type-R TRANSFORMER! Picked this beaut up in Japan while I was backpacking there last November. It's made largely of die-cast metal with some of the details in plastic (most toys sold in the States these days are vice versa). I was honestly torn whether I should take this thing out of the box, but I've always felt toys should be played with and not just squirreled away like some kind of pirate treasure.

1st Post!!!

Why is being the first to post so important to some people? In veritably, the first comment on a digg post will be some numbskull staking his virtual flag as if it were some kind of momentous achievement (And always with the multiple exclamation points). Ahh, I envy the young and energetic cyber-youths of this age...
