‘Discipline is what we lack’

My latest earworm is courtesy of my pal Ashley and all the awesome new-to-me music she sent my way recently. (Ignore the dead air at the end of the song in this clip. Official version has embedding disabled.)

It’s so true

Me: will you be my life coach in 2010? i need to turn this ship around. Nick: you and me we’re like cavier, it takes a refined pallette and a sense of self importance to choke us down and pretend we taste good hmmm thats not a good metaphor

Day 357: Stacked

Cute, cute cups for my birthday from Amanda and Brandon. Couple these with that new coffee grinder (courtesy of Coco and Dustin) and I can tweak for a solid week without ever washing a dang thang. [Project 365]

Day 355: Witchcraft

I know some ladies who can spin amazing shit from damn near nothingness. Somehow this managed to be the only photo I took Monday, and I took it with a camera phone. First camera phone pic for my 2009 Project 365, 355 days in. I’m actually proud of myself for holding out as long as I did. NOW I BETTER GET MY ASS BACK IN GEAR. [Project 365]

Day 350: Ma

Mom was so reluctant to see Amber and me leave that she insisted on a prolonged photoshoot outside as we were walking out the door. I hated to leave too; the family was going to be there for the rest of the week and I was going to schlep back to work after dropping Amber off in Murfreesboro. The drive back was easy enough, even if I did have to drive into the sunset the…

Day 349: Ol’ Greybeard

Tuesday brought much milling about and squirreling away. Pigeon Forge is lined with places you never want to go into but that you always end up buying shit at. Why? I don’t know. It’s some kind of universal law involving the eventual depletion of your checking account. Amber and I were sitting and waiting on the folks to meet us when my mom walked up to us. “Y’all!” mom started, then laughed. “I was going…

Day 348: The Smokies

Pigeon Forge is so bizarre. There’s these big, big rolling hills in the distance, but to get there, you’ve got to crawl past mounds of kitsch draped in rope lights that make your eyes hurt. I don’t even know what the point of Pigeon Forge is. I just opened a new tab so I could read the wiki. Huh. FAMILY VACATION HUB Yes, okay. If you insist. Jeez, Pigeon Forge. Step the eff off, Pigeon…

Day 346: Party Photography

Amber flew into town (ANDBOYWEREHERARMSTIRED!) Saturday and we ran errands and had lunch (Abyssinia — her first encounter with Ethiopian food) and I left her at the house to grade papers and create a final while I scurried off to work. When I arrived home, she was feeling froggy so we hopped over to Leslie and Mark’s house for their holiday party. It’s always fun getting to parties late, because everyone’s usually schnockered and highly entertaining.…

Day 340: Depravity

I had some folks over to warm the new house up a bit, and Dave brought over a bag of liquid goodies for his latest Oh Dear God Why Taste Test. The twist this time is that several people got in on the bit for a little group tasting action. Awww yeah. Cue sexy eggnog-gulping music here. (I’ll link to his post once it’s up.) The insanity was upped when the fellas decided to combine…
