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]

The holidays were nice: This was def the weirdest/worst Christmas ever but still good times. Nanny's was different since it's hit the point where it seems like it's time for each 'family' to go their separate way now + w/ all the new little kids and the 20-somethings growing apart. I'm looking forward to having the Fuller Christmas in Charlotte next year. I do love getting more from Mom + Robert than any kid over 14 should - it's pretty awesome how much they've done + continue to do for us. I got to spend a few days w/ Brooke before taking her to the airport on Christmas eve - that was def the best part of the holidays by far. Dad and I got out and played some golf w/ DJ Sparkles as our personal caddy on an unbelievably beautiful day for late December [or April for that matter]. It wasn't hard to tell that it'd been months since I last touched a club. Grandma Salter's was different this year too; mainly b/c Mom + Robert left for Houston on th...

too much sex [too little jesus]

What an awesome title for a rock song. Man, I love dbt. They've got it all. It's just dirty, rowdy, heartfelt southern rock. Anyway... Mondays are weird. I always feel like a slacker b/c everyone else is at work and I'm not, even though I work Saturdays and I went into the shop for a few hours today and did some freelance stuff. I guess it's just me. Such beautiful weather, it seems like the weather's been pretty much awesome for the past month or so. Pretty good weekend. Friday night we checked out Front Page News in midtown. It was pretty cool, I just miss the good ol' days when everyone else would get a little crazy, seems like they're all so chill now. I guess that's how it is when you get in a relationship though, so that's good for them. I guess I feel like having a girlfriend doesn't really change the way I act that much, but maybe it does. I'll work on them though, now that even more of us are in the city. Saturday was an ...
