try to remember

we set aside a place in time
we mark it
fold the page
try to remember it
we make a promise in our mind
to find it again
hold on to the memory
and never let it change
we travel through day to day
pages get lost
moments begin to fade
and we try hard to remember...

Tree Stripes

What did we do?

No, this isn't a day at the creek. I am not hiking in some nice stream. This is my back yard. South Texas has had so much rain lately that all of our shit is floating away. On top of the 6 inches of water in my backyard, I am sitting in a bare concrete floor room because of the flooding. The carpet was ripped out because water filled the whole room and it stunk like the south end of a north bound donkey. Anybody up for canoeing, come on over, bring a paddle, you can help me get to my car. Sheesh!

Kathy Rocks!

We saw Kathy Griffin last night, she was funny as hell. She played the magestic here in town, and I have to say she is one of the funniest people on the planet. I'm still laughing.

I'll break it

What does it mean to break, to be broken. The dictionary says broken "physically and forcibly separated into pieces or cracked or split; "a broken mirror"; "a broken tooth"; "a broken leg"; break, well that one is "become separated into pieces or fragment."
We let people break us all the time, but today, today I choose to be broken. My best friend, the man I lived with for about eight years, he left town today. He is my best friend. We share a weird friendship that most people don't even try to understand. I have spent the last year getting ready to see him go. Today he went, and I am happy for him, but I am a little broken. A small piece of me will miss the comfort I got from having him so close all these years. He is smooth water, I am tidal waves. He is blue skies, I am a hail storm, he is a beautiful spirit where I am often lacking. He is my best friend, and I will take today to be broken. Today I will break where I need to, and then I will be fine, because if anyone in this world deserves happiness, it is him, so I will be happy for him knowing we have shared a friendship that no one else can ever imagine, seen things you can only dream about,share secrets the universe will only know. I will break for a moment, I will cry, I will not explain myself to anyone, and I will bottle the energy and be thankful to everything in me that I have known some one that has stirred this kind of love in me. We are family and broken pieces are easily put back with time. If you read this , I miss you....

I'm dancing in the room as if I was in the woods with you
No need for anything but music
Music's the reason why I know time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists
Time still exists

So I just put my arms around you around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you
And I hope that you won't hurt me
My arms around you they're around you
And I hope that I will do no wrong
My eyes are on you they're on you they're on you

Elisa-A Time For Dancing

pretty good ehh?

New New Oh so new tattoo!

Jeremy and I finally got our tattoos last night. I think they turned out super!!!!

Welcome to my space...

I was on my niece's myspace page tonite, prowling her comments like a good pseudo guardian should, leaving embarrassing comments to all the boys that say she's cute. This whole myspace thing is a fiasco if you ask me, i didn't like about 90 percent of the crap those kids are posting. Beware you little assholes, she might be cute but her aunt will kick your nuts into your brains. Was that too violent?

Lazy Sunday

Sandra and I spent a lazy sunday morning wandering around down town in the mercado. We also headed over to the Spanish Governor's Palace to take some pics of the planters I did for them. It's a really cool old historic building, I'm happy I did the planters, otherwise I might have never gone to see it. Win win.
