walking the animal

My first impression of Alondra Park was it's a bum's playground. Then I started noticing the same bums there everyday. It's cool because not only are they nice but they take really good care of the park. One day I'm going to post a blog about the bums there, but today was dedicated to walking our little monster Charlie.

This is Charlie's "mad dog."

I see a lot of people fishing in this lake but never seen a fish...








I win...

Also, make sure you always watch out for the rape vans that park here...

Free Download "La Musique De Bateau" Mixtape by DJ Cassidy

I got this mixtape last year at the Clothing Convention (Magic) in Vegas. Surprisingly Rockport Shoes was the one that put it out. No hip hop just music to cruise down PCH to. Hope you enjoy!

In with the new

Since I'm getting too old I felt like I needed a reason to still push around on my skateboard. And surprisingly even though the bones I've broken didn't heal right, I still feel like I can progress even more and learn new tricks. I decided to put an ad online offering skateboard lessons in Venice Beach and to my surprise, people started responding! At first I was gonna flake and not go through with it because I have no experience teaching and was kinda nervous but the fact people were so interested and was fine paying $45 an hour, hell might as well haha! This was my first victim Austin, he lives in San Francisco but was visiting for the weekend. I was hyped when he told me his favorite skateboarder was Stevie Williams, I showed him Stevie's number in my phone and he almost passed out.



In a little less than 2 hours Austin learned 4 new tricks including this boardslide on the flat bar. Definitely a successful day!

charlie update...

His ears stick straight up, his body is getting longer (and fatter) and his legs are staying the same size.

The hamburgler...

Tonight we decided to make burgers...

80/20 ground sirloin, cheddar cheese, grilled onions on a toasted sweet onion bun

Tailgate party?

We're so hyped on getting a little BBQ that we've learned to say "Fuck it I don't care what people think, we're bbq'ing in the parking lot."

The set up

This chicken has been marinating in the frig for the past 2 days

Waiting

Charlie eating anything on the ground

and a lot of BEER!!!

The end result- Smokey, charcoal goodness...

this just doesn't sound right...

Next time you're in my area we can stop by the Asia Kitchen for some human beef!

Charlie update

For 5 months old he's been doing really well. Knows how to sit, fetch, waits till you say it's OK to come on the bed, etc. With all that said, last night he decided to piss on the couch, shit on a pile of clothes and piss on the rug all within 2 hours. I think this is his "please don't waterboard me again" face.

hyped!

Saw these at the post office today. Had to get em...

May 5th 2009

Cinco de Mayo gives some people an excuse to reenact verses of Asher Roth's "I love College" but for me, I'll celebrate with a homemade torta, a couple beers and my very own mexican (not pictured ha)...

Charlie sleeping with his eyes open...

I knew we'd be able to get this on film one day because he always does it. Check out when I wake him up haha


p.s. Yeah I was listening to Eminem. Shut up.

Korean Friendship Bell (San Pedro, CA)

It's so hard to find places to go on the weekends without spending money. And it's funny how places like this is in your backyard and you don't even know. Luckily a episode of Bobby Flay's Throwdown (the sushi episode) on Food Network helped me find this place that's 15 minutes from the apartment as long as you don't get lost. Damn you Google Maps...

Finally!!!

After 2 dreadful summers with no A/C, we finally decided to get one.

Take advantage...

It's weird how you don't take advantage of the things you have right in front of you. I guess after time you change and your interests stray towards other things. I thought about selling my turntables because I rarely use them and I could definitely use the money. Then after taking a long look at them....


Fuck that, I'm keeping em.

Charlie update

Getting bigger...

CHARLIE!

PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION

I've been taking the bus and train to work lately and I love it. No worries about speeding tickets, gas, traffic, etc.

Leftovers?

I posted some pics from Seattle on the Orisue Blog but had a couple left over....
