"I never told my ambitions and efforts and failures to anyone. I listened unmoved to the sneers and ridicule of various relatives who thought my scribbling rank folly and waste of time. That never disturbed me at all. Down, deep down, under all discouragement and rebuff I knew I would arrive someday." - Lucy Maud Montgomery

It's Tricky...
I was just watching RUN-DMC's video for "It's Tricky". And not the updated version from the nineties, I was watching the original 1986 version in all it's faded, VHS-era fullscreen glory. Ah, the memories.... I'm watching it on my Playstation 4 on an app I installed called Vidzone. It's basically a radical new idea where you can actually watch videos of your favorite music artists, one after the other. If a network like MTV or VH1 caught on that idea, there is no telling how far they'd go with it!

Cowboii & Wicked's Creature Shop
| And so it begins... We will turn this pile of crap into awesome art. |
Okay so here's the scoop: the brother & I are trying to create all sorts of cool stuff like costumes, puppets, creatures and lots of badass things. For that, we need some cash for materials. That means **drum roll please** we need to unload a lot of stuff we have lying around the house. I just started collecting all the DVDs we have and I'm ready to sell. Lots of work, but hopefully it'll give us enough money to get the materials we need to begin creating our little monsters.
Who said art was easy?

The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us....
Late night watching a movie. I'm eating seeds and I look up to see this. Gerard Butler knows what's up. Am I supposed to go on a quest and find him now or something?

About an almond...
Eating my home-made almond brittle and I look up the tv screen and it says director of photography Alan Almond and I freak out a bit.

30th Birthday Bash
It's my 30th birthday today!!!
Don't be scared by Montezuma here. There was no Revenge. He was just showing me his dagger. He parties like craaaaaazy. You never know with these Aztec. Squeezing monkeys, leaving all kinds of macaw feathers all over the place and shit.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Higher Ground (1989)
A song that captures who I was, who I am and who I will be.
This is me.

Musical TMI
I don't care that you're listening to Katy Perry on Spotify.
I really don't.
But Facebook insists I should.
Well, fuck.
Post another photo of your sandwich/dog/baby.
Please.

I have...
... a girl crush on Tina Fey.
Nah, but seriously, I want her to be my writing mentor.
Step 1: Catch up on 5 seasons of 30 Rock (Done.)
Step 2: Get my hands on a 30 Rock script for format reference.
Step 3: Write 30 Rock spec script
Step 4: Get an agent and hope for the best
OR
Steps 1 thru 3
Step 4: Tina Fey has a vacation in Orlando, walks into my store, she hires me to write for her on the spot.
Anything's possible.

If You're Gonna Be Dumb...
by KarenO
lyrics by Roger Allan Wade
If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up,
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough, to know,
If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down you gotta get back up,
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough, to know,
If you're gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
I drenched my brain with Rot-Gut whiskey
Till my pain was chicken fried
And I had dudes with badges frisk me
Teach me how to swallow pride
Till my pain was chicken fried
And I had dudes with badges frisk me
Teach me how to swallow pride
I took advice no fool would take
I got some habits I can’t shake
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough to know
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
I got some habits I can’t shake
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough to know
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
That’s the way it is in life and love
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
That’s the way it is in life and love
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
I’ve been up and down and down and up
I’ve been left and right and wrong
Yeah, I’ve walked the walk and I’ve run my mouth
On the short end for too long
I’ve been left and right and wrong
Yeah, I’ve walked the walk and I’ve run my mouth
On the short end for too long
If they gave medals for honky tonk fuckin wars
Hell, I’d put mine in my chest of drawers
With my irs bills and divorce papers and all that stuff
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
Hell, I’d put mine in my chest of drawers
With my irs bills and divorce papers and all that stuff
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
(Everybody!)
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough to know
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
(one more time)
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
When you get knocked down, you gotta get back up
I ain’t the sharpest knife in the drawer
But I know enough to know
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
(one more time)
If you’re gonna be dumb, you gotta be tough
This song helped me get through many tough times. And it's fun to sing along to.
