• went to an open mic at a small coffee shop and listened to a girl that sounded just like mazzy star and a man that sounded just like Willie Nelson. It was incredible and there was only 5 people in the place.
• Rented a gas powered tiller and tore up 1/4 of my yard to flatten out and reseed and/or make a garden.
• Fought with relatives about the war and the health care bill on FaceBook and got so mad I deleted my Facebook account.
• laid on the couch sick all day sunday drinking cough syrup and red wine. In a foggy haze I was flipping thru channels and thought I had found a NHL game. When I woke up again I realized it was not NHL but the paraplegic olympics hockey game. Watching those guys play hockey was actually amazing!

saturday i did NOTHING, which was awesome. on sunday i decided to drive out to animal acres, which is a farm that cares for animals rescued from the food industry. i adopted one of their chickens a couple years ago (which entails paying for all of its feed, etc) and decided to adopt a goat.
i apologize for the long post, but i wanna share these pix and flix:
driving
this guy made himself at home while i ate lunch on the grass
this bigass pig weighs around 700 pounds the lady said
and it likes taking baths
feeding a shoulder-height bull
turkey

and finally, a sneezing goose. it waddles its tail before it sneezes, so cute :)

Was in Kauai last week for a job there, stayed the rest of the week and looked around the beautiful island. On Friday, my last day before the long trek home, I flew on this for an hour. Wow!

friday i saw mutaytor at club 740. my girl is friends with them so she introduced me to everyone. it was cool seeing them play a solo show as i've only ever seen them as part of a larger thing like at E3 a couple years ago (where i ran into chris vrenna, too). they introduce themselves on stage as being from black rock city, which is fucking awesome.
saturday my other girl and i played pinball and ate pizza at the arcade all day.
sunday i went to a renaissance faire with the same girl where i bought her a purse made out of a dead frog and got to dress up in a bauta costume i finished putting together recently for parties. we wandered around in this surreal place drunk and high for several hours before finally stumbling home.

this past weekend was one of the best in a while. Played hookie from work Thursday and rode Vail with friends. Friday was opening day of the Rockies baseball at Coors field, downtown was a HUGE party all afternoon and night - I got hammered, it was so fun!!Saturday my buddy came into Denver with his daughter, we had lunch and skated through the park with the stroller.
I then went to a little bbq with friends before going see Hank III !!! He was so awesome!! Then yesterday I went snowboarding at Breck with friends and again had the best day.
Back to work today :D

Friday went to review Italian restaurant with Scottish friend who is politially incorrect and loud, much fun, liked the restaurant in a kitschy/nostalgiac way, saturday visited pops and made pizza from scratch, including base, turned out really good, skyped with my girl for about six hours. Sunday, did the rounds of friends-who-work-in-restaurants, ate well, drank too much cawfee, finished the day with pints with friends, got hit on by the most convincing transvestite I've ever seen.
