I'm Baaa-ack

Missed blogging way too much to stay gone forever. My continuing struggle with alcoholism, drug addiction, and women led me astray. Glad to say that I have not had a drink or a drug for 23 days today, and my head is starting to clear. I am hoping that if I start blogging again, perhaps I won't babble so much to any random stranger I cross paths with. (Good luck with that, I say to myself.) I'm not worried about living up to my past blog, which is one of the advantages of setting a low bar to... Sign in to see full entry.

Bob Dylan concert

Saw Bob Dylan live at the Moore Theatre in Seattle last night. Everyone wants to know how it was, but I don't really know how to answer them. It was just Bob Dylan, on stage, right there. His voice isn't as great, he changes all his songs to being almost unrecognisable, I have no idea if he played any new stuff, it was just fun to hear it. They sounded good too. Just hard to explain the style. Blues-rock I guess. He played some that I recognized, especially Don't Think Twice. Anyway, thanks dad!... Sign in to see full entry.

Another Day

It was beautiful today in Bellingham, Washington. The sun was out in full force, shining on the bay, something I'm still not used to seeing here in the Pacific Northwest. For most of my life the sun has only shone for a few weeks each summer. It lends an entirely different feel to the entire area, having sunshine and warmth. I ended up being forced to walk around 2 miles from downtown back to home along a path running next to the water. It winds through Boulevard Park about 3/4 of the way... Sign in to see full entry.

Coconut Meringue Pie

It's so good. Just took a bite as I started writing. Maybe I should have pie every time I blog, I'll write more often! Start driving taxi in the next week or so. Got the last bit of paperwork picked up today. Had to get a new UBI number (Unique Business ID) from L&I, a new taxi permit from the City of Burlington (really geeky photo) and a driving record from the Department Of Licensing (long wait and $10 for a blank piece of paper). Fun stuff. It's kind of nice to move back here and call up my... Sign in to see full entry.

Back From Australia

I got back a week ago. Was jet lagged for a couple days. Moved up here to Bellingham, living with my mother and my girlfriend, crammed in a little 1 bedroom apartment until we find a bigger place. I feel weird about living with my mother, again, especially at 30, but it's just my ego that hurts. It's the quote "Those who matter don't mind, those who mind don't matter". So, in a way, if you think I'm a loser for getting a place with my mother, you don't matter! Anyway, all settled, finally got my... Sign in to see full entry.
