my homie charlie joined the national guard, so he’ll be gone for a while our friends threw him a going away party in williamburg on friday…
there just so happened to be a photo booth in the bar…  these images were born. #best

it was nice to mingle with our old friends… i haven’t in a while, especially with my sister. majority of them were her close friends back then when ryan was still alive, but they’ve all been scattered good friends of mine at different times.

i won’t even waste finger tapping on the bullshit that happened when the spotting of the former happened… let’s just say whatever little shreds of respect and/or friendship could have been is dunzo.
too bad being a dick is what it really took to make me see clearly…
whatevz.

i’m saving all of the t-shirt images for editing into their designated folders, when i just realized that i was doing this while depeche mode’s “waiting for the night” is playing…  which always reminds me of george (it’s his favorite band), who just so happens to be the one who took the product pictures for rob… (who was all mine this time last year…  bleh. george, not rob, lol.) and then i open up the first email from rob, and the name of the first shirt is named “ceremony”… a new order song that reminds me of rob, always. (we totally made out from queens to upstate one night while ryan was driving and we were listening to mostly new wave the entire ride up…  i remember that was one of the first songs to play that night…) #ohgirlbrains

BLAH.

i miss the days of ryan (and of course, ryan)
friday was the 5th year of his death, unbelievable…  so sad.

so this is the black wall. the purple side hasn’t been finished yet – no sneak peeks!
this has a short wall in the back like 5/6 feet wide and goes a little longer to the right of the picture where you can’t see.

i love it. it doesn’t make my apartment feel smaller either, which is what i was afraid of.
even my landlord liked it

thanks again jes and rob for all of your help! (GO BUY SHIRTS FROM THEM!!!!!! – they are two creatively brilliant minded friends of mine<3)

ALMOST THERE!

the project was a website design/build (wordpress install). came out wonderfully with the assistance of robbie and his graphic design input as well. refresh the page – the headers are all on random. HOTNESS.

saturday i took the longest journey home to queens to see erica and my mom, got some food and coffee and drove into brooklyn with steve…  we went to see my co-worker shawn for his birthday in williamsburg and had a few drinks with him before joanna’s thing…  ran into my old roomie christina again for the second time in a week…  it’s just weird because i haven’t seen her in months, and now twice in a week at the most random places…

then we went to trash bar to meet up with joanna… and that bar sucks.  and the crowd made it so shitty.  stupid brooklyn hipsters…  there was no room to stand, walk, sit, drink, dance, move, breathe.  i was getting totally claustrophobic and wanted to leave.  we stayed for a while and left because one of our friends wasn’t allowed in the bar because he was too drunk.  like i said, that bar sucks.  no biggie.

charlie and rob came over today to hang and fix my computer.  charlie had to update my windows and drivers, etc. and get this stupid wi-fi thing going so i could finally use the internet…  insanity not having it for two weeks.  so many things rely on my being on the internet, it’s ridiculous… music, freelancing, weather, email, etc. – it really sucked.  so i have wi-fi connected to some shit connection that keeps going in and out because it won’t pick up frankies router signal, no idea why.  so at some point within the week, i’ve gotta figure that out…

anyways, we did that and then had some yummy japanese food down the street from my house and then they left…  my friend louis came over today – maybe i posted about him – met him in a bar, he likes face to face – texts me lyrics randomly?  ahhhh anyways, he brought over this wonderful dvd and it kept us highly entertained for a while.  i’ve always loved NOFX so much, but it’s so great watching them tour the world.  it made me realize how much i shouldn’t take for granted seeing bands in the US…  especially often – i mean they played all these random countries and had such good turn outs at most of them.  and it’s crazy how many kids show up and ADORE THEM and NEVER get to see them.  like it was their first time playing some countries, the kids must really treasure that.  if i only got to see my favorite band ONCE in life, i don’t know what i would do…  i see the souls on average 2/3 times a year…  i need it.  it’s my sanity.

okay, i’m half asleep and posting so i’m going to lay down.
work in the morning.

:goodnight:
