lit up alright

Ah, it's been a while. A lot has happened in the last few weeks. I'll skip over the fun/not quite life-changing stuff for the sake of time. It's new years eve. Alright, my grandma McLain passed away on Christmas Eve. I'm sure I'll get really down about it at some different points in life but right now it's hard to be too sad b/c it's all that she's wanted since grandad died. And it's really cool just to think about how cool the timing is and that she was w/ grandad and god for christmas.

I'm not that big on religion or anything, but it's so amazing to see how things work out in death. It just seems like the time in someone's life where you can truly get a glimpse of his plan and how everything happens for a reason and all that...but I've talked about this enough the past week so let's move on. Family is what it's all about.

I've started a new job at a local t-shirt shop: the t-shirt construction co. It's a gay name but it's a really cool place, just Montine [the owner] and me pretty much. It's just my kind of thing: local art, small business, cool area, being surrounded by artists and dreamers, laid back, and most importantly - opportunity.

Tonight brings new years eve downtown. It's great that James and them have a loft downtown again so we can just get sloshed and walk to five points to catch the peach drop and collective soul before coming back and seeing how long we can continue. Hopefully at least the main crew can make it until we cook breakfast around five or six. Good times.

Alright, there's a lot more but I'm about to eat some pizza and get it right for tonight. Have a safe and happy, everyone. I'll see you next year! [cheese]

So I just found out that my 2nd ex-girlfriend is engaged to be married this summer. Wow, it's crazy how things happen and change so fast. It's also so weird how different people are depending on who they are dating at the time. It sounds like her ideal life though, so that's great. It's not a sad thing or anything, it's just crazy. Ha, I'm not sure what it is about dating me that makes a girl want to get married to the next guy she meets... that's all

this is my home

I've said it before and I'll say it again: atlanta is awesome. I spent the day [from nine to seven] at the inman park festival today...'working'. It's so cool so see such a diverse group of people come together and have some fun. The parade was great, everything from old people dressed up and dancing like they're on bad acid to grady high school's band doing the whole 'black band' drumcore [or whatever the name of that movie was] thing. Of course my signature luck had my allergies kicking my ass all day but I didn't let it ruin the fun too much. After about twenty minutes of lying in bed and a double shot of benadryl [I know it's a histamine blocker] and some rockstar [to counteract the anti-histamine side effect] it's time for dinner and whatever I can get into tonight. All this on less than four hours of sleep. I'm sitting at 44 hours worked this week, not even counting being at the festival tomorrow from 11-7. You know you...
