081712

Start off on Wreck Beach
Then move to my patio
Park drinks and tattoos

081612

It's finally here
The best part of the Summer
The end of the week

081512

A horizon looms
Glorious new beginnings
There is beauty here

081412

3 back to back shifts
at 16 hours a piece
What am I doing?

081312

A heat wave arrives
A city awash in sun
Blazing blinding light

8.12.2012

081212

I am beat to shit
Hurled my body down a hill
Near on four hours

081112

Who woulda thunk it?
Well over four hundred feet
Epic slip and slide

081012

Amazing bike ride
All over the whole city
with Steph and Ryan

080912

Oh, thank the Maker
It is finally Friday
Epic weekend planned

080812

Back to back sixteens
Equals no sleep for this kid
I am burning out

080712

Tuesday, what's to say
It comes and goes as it may
Cyclical, timeless

080612

What's this? A day off
Sleeping in followed by Church
We're here way to much

080512

Here we are again
Pound out brunch for the masses
And then off to Church

080412

Bruised beaten and sore
We're hungover and filthy
Best party ever

080312

Tonight is the night
One hundred and twenty feet
of slip and slide fun

080212

Twenty four hours
We begin preparations
East Van Slip and Slide

080112

Two day week this week
I think I can handle that
Money is for nought

073112

So, back to the grind
There are big plans ahead though
This summer is mine

7.31.2012

073012

Laurelhurst Market
Then the long drive back to Van
It's good to be home

It's been transcendent

072812

My last Saturday
The best vacation ever

7.27.2012

072712

Last night was a blast

Uneventful flight
But I s'pose that's the best kind
Checked in at The Ace

7.25.2012

072512

Last night in SF
Looking for cheap Mexican
Shouldn't be too hard

072412

So much fucking art

I love this city

7.23.2012

Of sadness and stress
Of goodbyes and pricey cabs
San Francisco bound

Before heading south

Four days is often enough
Two days till Lindsay

Hold her in my arms

071012

Busiest night yet
And just me working the line
I need more money

070912

Back to back sixteen hours
Leave no time for sleep

Bison on the grill
Futurama on Netflix
Beer is in the fridge

070312

A crack in the gloom
Plans are coming together
Train trips and sunshine

070212

Feels like forever
Until leave for Cali
Since I've seen the sun

070112

Oh, hello July
And Canada Day to boot
Damn grey skies to Hell

Amazing Friday

6.29.2012

062812

With Russ and Jared
Ryan and Arianna
Shoot dice get tattooed

062712

My mind drifts Southward
Thoughts trend toward the future
And all that could be

6.27.2012

062612

Thirty-two hours
Of work in only two days
I am in a state

6.25.2012

062512

Jen flies out Thursday
Tonight I'm cooking dinner
It's all so final

062412

Couch monster's got me
I don't mind one iota
Media and rest

6.23.2012

062312

Thunderstorms forecast
Should be an interesting night
Nature's fucking rad

6.22.2012

062212

Saturday's arrived
But like the girls in my bed
My money's tied up

062112

First day of Summer
But all my thoughts turn Southward
Warmer hearts and climes

6.20.2012

062012

What's a boy to do
When everything goes a'rye
Whiskey does the trick

6.19.2012

061912

One month till I leave
Headed South to see Lindsay
My heart's aflutter

6.18.2012

061812

The sunshine is back
Bike ride and a barbeque
The plans of the day

6.17.2012

061712

Two minutes early
Daily elucidation
I can't win them all

6.16.2012

061612

Jenny's leaving soon
For a new life in Poland
An end to all things

6.15.2012

061512

Bike Party tonight
With over one thousand peeps
Great start to Summer

6.14.2012

061412

This is drudgery
Oh where, oh where is the sun?
Hides behind grey masks

061312

I have no comment
On the events of today
I'm non-commital

061212

Tuesday is Wednesday
A surreal reality
Nothing as it seems

6.11.2012

061112

So, it's like, Monday
The LA Kings won the cup
For like, the first time.

061012

I got a new phone
But it doesn't quell the ache
Deep down in my heart

6.09.2012

060912

I lost my cell phone
It's probably at Park Park
I fucking hope so

060812

It's Prometheus
and then we're off to Park Park
East Van Garden Tour

6.07.2012

060712

Finally my Friday
Cleaned the house and wrote Haikus
Off the booze for now

060612

It's day ten today
Over one hundred hours
I need this bank though

060512

The rains have returned
So much for early Summer
The whole city sighs

060412

Oh my fucking God
I'm still intoxicated
And it's well past Noon

060312

Work party tonight
We'll be getting our drink on
Jameson's and draft

6.02.2012

This Saturday brunch
Sets the bar for all others
Good thing I'm done soon

060112

I bought my ticket
Fly to LA in July
I am so smitten

053112

The world bleeds in
From grey edges and beyond
Over worked for sure

053012

A dream become temporal
A night for all time

With long days and longer nights
Summertime living

Suck it up princess
Got to get it together
Focus on the goal

5.22.2012

052212

Tired of crying
I've got to be good enough
For someone out there

5.21.2012

052112

I worked my day off
Got paid like a rockstar though
Rumpus Room after

052012

Sunday fucking sucks
I got a girl on my mind
And work destroys me

051921

Up at 5am
Saturday is no longer mine
Drank like it was

051812

I don't even know
It all blurs into grey shades
As sleep evades me

051712

A warm afternoon
Beauty in simplicity
I miss her embrace

5.18.2012

051612

Thinking of Lindsay
I'm California dreaming
She's stuck in my head

051512

Recovery day
Spontaneous Eesh party
Till the wee hours

051412

Shitty news at work
I'm back cooking weekend brunch
Totally sucks balls

5.13.2012

051312

Today's for softball
Brunch with Alex Kennedy
To start off the day

5.12.2012

051212

If you're reading this
I will thank you from my heart
For your attention

051112

Drinking with my friends
Yet I still feel so alone
What have I done wrong

051012

It blends together
The days and the things I cook
But my heart still aches
