wrecking force

It's nice to be back in atlanta, saving money and still having too much fun. I saw a quote earlier today that said you're life could be measured in how much fun you have. I think that's true to some point, but there's obviously a lot more to life than that. Anyway...

Go see 'little miss sunshine'. While it is another example of how indie films are going more mainstream [good or bad?], it is a great movie. These types of films are my favorite: the kind about how messed up everyone is in their own way, how unfair yet beautiful life is, and how it's all about the true relationships that we develop during our time here. A dark comedy with a heart would be a good way to sum it up I guess. That's all I'm going to say about that, drive to atlanta [or whatever other city you're near] and see it.

It was great getting together w/ everyone at Steve's condo [ridiculously nice, the kind of place that I might live in when I'm 50] Saturday night. Eleven50 was a lot of fun as well, even though I'm not that big on the 'clubbin'. It was nice getting to hang out and talk to jennifer again & to see everyone else. Just like old times.

Last night we checked out the 'beerfest atlanta beer pong championships' at park tavern. It was cooler than it sounds, the games were actually pretty exciting to watch. Rocky Mountain, our old home bar, beat everyone, even the guys from the beerfest movie. Mac, rabbit, and farva [that's their names in 'super troopers' at least] came and hung out. Despite all her excellent cheers, tatum failed to get any free pizza or hook-ups from the rocky mtn. guys.

I had a nice little allergy-fest last night before the beer pong. This stuff sucks, I go running and push myself really hard [like I always do] and by the time I get done I have nearly all of the symptoms of Anaphylaxis [I checked]: itching of the skin, hives, swelling of the lips, tongue and throat, difficulty breathing, and anxiety. I've always dealt w/ it in the past by trying to relax and focus on breathing, that takes forever though. I have those epi-pens now, thankfully, although I didn't do very well for my first time. I jabbed my thigh in several different spots expecting to really feel it when the needle went in. I didn't, so now I have various injection points on my thigh and it's nice and bruised. I guess I'll get better w/ some more practice. I guess I should see another allergist, make it a regular thing.

I really want to get started w/ grad school or get an extra job or something, I hate not having to get up early in the mornings and only working 30-35 hours a week. I just feel like I'm not really making any kind of real progress right now, that feeling comes and goes though. I just want to always be working towards something. In time I guess.

The walkmen/bare jr. show w/ the guys should be great tonight. DBT & bare jr. are coming to macon next month. That's going to be another great show, I think I'm going to try to get josh & my dad to check it out w/ me.

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 ...
