I’m Gonna Show Up Unshaven And Hit On Girls And If You Don’t Like It That’s Your Effing Problem

August 14th, 2008 · 11 Comments · Memoirs

Some people invite me to their parties. They think I’ll shave ahead of time. They think I won’t get drunk when I’m there. They especially think I won’t show up and hit on girls in that condition.
Some people are wrong, wrong, and especially wrong!
As you know, I went to a Googlers barbecue recently. It [...]

One Month

August 12th, 2008 · 5 Comments · Memoirs

One month ago on July 12th, I arrived in Irvine.
That seems like a million years ago.
My phone could not hold any more text messages, so I deleted them.
Since that time I have received 691 text messages. I know because there are 691 messages in my inbox. It’s a good thing I have the unlimited plan. [...]

Burning Man Preparation, Oregon House, CA

August 11th, 2008 · 7 Comments · Memoirs

Instead Justin and I just shot guns and rolled stuff off of cliffs.

Generally we did absolutely nothing constructive whatsoever.
Oh, and at night we drove my truck to a more remote area of Justin’s parent’s [...]

IF IT FEELS GOOD DO IT DOT COM!

August 6th, 2008 · 12 Comments · Memoirs

On July 28th my subscriber count doubled. At first I couldn’t account for the sudden spike in readership. Then I remembered something (barely) about that night I got stoned with my lawyer.
Before we got high we went to a bar in San Francisco and saw an 80s cover band play. The band finished their set [...]

Back For More II

August 5th, 2008 · 3 Comments · Memoirs

RENDEZVOUS II
I woke up at the Wild Wild West Hotel. I extricated myself from it.
I checked into the Hard Rock. My room would not be ready for a few hours. I called my ex ex girlfriend’s girlfriend and told her where I was. She drove over to pick me up.
While I was waiting A called [...]

Fifteen Years In America: Five Of Which I Spent Getting High On Weed, And The Other Ten Of Which I Spent Being Apathetic And Unmotivated, In Other Words, Being An American. Oh Yeah, Plus Another Fifteen In Which I Finally Got My Act Together And Capitalized On Newfound Productivity Gains From Snorting Large Amounts Of Coke - Chapter 2

August 4th, 2008 · 6 Comments · Memoirs

The title is complete bullshit. Well, maybe not complete bullshit. But the content is the true story of my life. I was inspired by thebaglady’s continuing translations of her Dad’s story, Fifteen Years In America and motivated by this comment that I left regarding it.
When we moved from Sunnyvale to Benicia it was like someone [...]
