Where am I? What is happening? Whose chair is that? What a whirlwind of a week it has been. I tell you what, I tell you whatttttt. I went to four open mics last week in three days and totally burned myself out. That and having too much caffeine. I'm super sensitive to caffeine and … Continue reading Open Mics and Meeting Friends

Open Mic Comedy
What a thing it is. Comedy of the open mic variety. I went to my first open mic since moving to Austin last night, and it was a lot of things: Fun, interesting, weird... all of it. I arrived early to see that I was going up last, which wasn't exactly what I was hoping … Continue reading Open Mic Comedy

Mango Smoothie
Holy Mexican Moses with a monkey for a mouth I need to clean my computer. Disgusting. How do I live with myself? I don't know if it's a male thing or I'm just a bit of slob but sometimes things have to get obscenely dirty for me to even notice. I ordered a mango smoothie … Continue reading Mango Smoothie
Finding Meaning and Purpose, and How We are All Slaves to Money
Weeeeeeeeeee I'm here! And it feels so goooooood. I will be honest, I was not feeling good my first few days here. I was physically exhausted from my trip and emotionally exhausted from going through all sorts of stuff. Apparently it's my Saturn return. I've never had the time to get too into astrology but … Continue reading Finding Meaning and Purpose, and How We are All Slaves to Money
Denver/Albuquerque/Austin
Well. This journey is coming to a close, as I sit here in my hotel room in the middle of Texas with an Otis Spunkmeyer muffin by my side. What a name. Otis Spunkmeyer.

Arches (Post 1)
Moab. Snow crab. Low jab. Not only is Moab fun to say, but it’s quite beautiful. Mmm yes quite. Indubitably. Fantastic. Tremendous. Rich. Absolutely rich. Good, clean fun for the whole family. What am I even saying? Whose couch is this? Ah, yes. Moab. I had the best time in Moab, it was definitely one … Continue reading Arches (Post 1)
Zion to Joseph to Moab
I’m currently in the middle of butt truck nowhere, Utah. And yes, that definitely is an official city. It’s just southeast of Ass Cavity and a bit to the north of Piss Creek. Great spot, I highly recommend it. I guess I’m technically in Joseph, Utah. I stopped over for the night at Wildland Gardens, … Continue reading Zion to Joseph to Moab
Lees Ferry to Zion
I’m sitting here at Oscar’s café at the base of Zion National Park. Life seems to be highlighting the fact that I’m alone. Apparently I booked my hotel room with two queen beds instead of one. “Please confirm here that it’s just two people staying in your room,” said the hotel clerk. “It’s just gonna … Continue reading Lees Ferry to Zion
