as you can see....winter is officially here....yikes....frozen beard...AWESOME!!!
i really dont mind it, people complain about the winter a lot, but we LIVE in WESTERN NEW YORK!! what do you expect??? fuck.....
ive only really eaten shit once so far, and its only because literally all of main st was one giant sheet of ice. i was gonna post a picture of the wound, but it didnt look as tough as it feels like it should and the picture looked kinda sleezy...OOPS.....
its definatley at the point where if you wake up assuming that its not snowing, youre not very wise.
last night a bunch of us went to $1.50 movies and saw Jackass II...it was so fucking stupid and exactly what i needed....its quite interesting because i really really hate almost everyone involved with that...which i think makes watching them hurt themselves all the funnier.
alright this is pointless...back to work!!!!!!

so im working, and i was just paid $5 PLUS my hourly wage to take 5 small packages to the post office on my bicycle. i also rad errands while i was out. i guess that makes me the personal bike courrier for my office.
its a pretty amazing thing to get paid to ride your bike...whoa...

as per the last few entries people may have noticed that it was recently my birthday...the show i was doing for it was cancelled due to black-outs in buffalo, but my friends threw together a last minute "blacked-out party" for me. it was super sweet and a few friends played acoustic sets. during emi's set the power went back on, but alex was right on top of it to run into the basement and shut it off so that the black-out party could continue.
at the end of the last set people brought me out a cake and were singing the standard song, at which point alex rounded the corner carrying a brand new bicycle that all my friends pitched in for and got me!!!! it was the exact one that was stolen from me while i was out on tour. i was speechless and still kind of am.
i have the greatest friends in the world and i love riding my new bike Astaldo!!!!!

i awoke very early this morning to a lovely friend of mine dropping off a belated birthday present to me. i was too tired to get up and scope it out then, but i later found it to be this;
 </a>
its pretty much the best thing ive ever seen.
im finishing up at work right now and then its off to I Object! practice, then drive to olean where we are recording tomorrow afternoon before a show we are playing tomorrow (friday) evening. then its a drive home to where im doin a birthday show for myself;
 </a>
you should probably go to that show....and bring me cute amazing presents like that wonderful aforementioned friend...or at the very least just come to the show and hang out with me and have fun!!!

so, yes...today is my birthday...23rd birthday.
i spent the entire day so far at work...fun fun fun.
on the plus side, after i get out there will be home-made cake, AND home-made veggie-burgers waiting for me. its REALLY nice having someone who cares about me living in the same city as i do for a change....very strange.
already sick of work, but suffering through it as much as i can for future fun including tours, and record label starting of which i have 3+ releases lined up already....just waiting for the monetary backing to accumulate.
anyways...those of you who care
</a>
come on out....it'll be a DAMN good time!!!

today at work....so far;
-it is very dangerous when you make your coffee just a little too sweet and it becomes room-temp and its just a little to easy to chug multiple cups....
-bringing in left-over Amy's Place food from yesterday and taking the lentil sandwich and putting it INSIDE the almost empty jar of Vegenaise, closing it, shaking it around, soooo delicious....
-listening to the Running For Cover bass solo so many times that co-workeers in the office leave to go have cigarettes
what else could there possibly be to come????
yesterday when i came home from work i looked in the mailbox and there was an envelope that just said BIFF really big on the front....nothing else, so someone HAD to have dropped it off. i open it, and there is no note or anything written at all, BUT there is just 2 $20 bills.....who am i to complain?? so before i could find out what it was from or for i called Emi up and took her out to Amy's Place.....it ruled!!!!

what else is there to do at work other than drink 12 cups of free coffee a day and apparently give yourself crazy acid-reflux shit so that it feels like you have a lump in your chest and youre going to explode.....whoops.
my long term idea of starting a record label is finally materializing itself...ive got a few releases lined up AND a job so its actually feasable...im only missing one thing....a name for the label....this is something i should have come up with long ago. if anyone has any sweet ideas please let me know...

today ended up being fucking amazing, though it started out quite depressing...i woke up late having slept through more than half of the first Buffalo Bills game of the season, tuned in and caught the rest of it and watched them lose...
after which i spent a number of hours straight listening to EVERY Jethro Tull record that i own whilst reading the fifth installment of the harry potter series....awesome.
rob-hawk came into my room and asked if i wanted to go to the Commie-Tank with him. so i went and flipped through this dudes record collection and purchased a few choice cuts from him..;
Jethro Tull - Minstrel in the Gallery
Jethro Tull - Songs From the Wood
Uriah Heep - Sweet Freedom
Napalm Death - SCUM
Napalm Death - From Enslavement to Oblitheration
Napalm Death - s/t 7" from Scum era
Napalm Death - live 7" from From Enslavement.... era
AMAZING!!! now im listening to some more Tull and about to read some more H.P. before passing out so that i might make it to work on time tomorrow....

After a full summer of touring i have returned home and taken a step towards becoming something that i wish to never be. I am now working 40+hours/week...its not that its a bad job, its just odd that i have a job again, its been 1 1/2 years....very strange feeling.
it just worked out too perfectly...i got home from tour, went to a party to see all my friends and met a friends fiancee who mentioned this job she works at where i USED to work at 3 years ago and next i knew she was offering me a job...
i told her my only concerns were the following;
#1 - the job is now 9-5, and im bad in the mornings so i will be late...often
#2 - every job i have ever had ive been given the dirty talk... and
#3 - i go on tour again in december, so ill only be there until then.
her respons...."sounds good!"
how could i turn it down.
being home is great, but its somewhat bittersweet. im working m-f 9-5, AND my friend Ethan just went in for his reconstructive knee surgery so he is going to be laid up on the couch for like 6-8 weeks. so, while it is amazing to be home its a bummer to work all day and see a friend out of commision....its all for the best i suppose....BACK TO WORK~!!

i got back in town a few days ago. it was 2 months in europe, then 1 week in allentown, 3 days in pittsburgh and finally back in buffalo.
its been so fucking amazing to walk and ride my bike down the familiar streets, to hop the fence up the street and go swimming, to see friends who ive thought about the entire time that ive been gone...
yesterday was completely perfect...i woke up early and cooked breakfast for the runnamucks as well as a bunch of us who were going to the beach, then we drove across the canadian border and went to the beach and it was beautiful, then we returned home and cooked HUGE burritos which were by far the best thing ive ever tasted, then at like 10pm i went with alex to the bike shop and we spent about 4 hours building both of our first tall bike......its looking really good and was a lot of fun.
buffalo rules and anyone who has never hung out here for an extended period of time NEEDS to!!!

unbelievable day!!! i was worried yesterday because i knew today would be long and stressful...
a few brief +'s for the day;
+last minute decision to ride my bike to my parents house instead of driving Theo' car = AWESOME ride in amazing weather.
+Buffalo Sabres victory in overtime against Ottawa....
+hauling ass back downtown to catch Priestess (HOLY SHIT!!!!!)
+about to leave the show and see this convertable porche piloted by a rich, drunk asshole back up into a bike locked to a no parking sign and rev up against it a few times....SO a few of the bike punx who happened to see this (myself included) called this asshole out on it and he got out and was screaming and being a piece of shit and as he was leaving i totally kicked his super expensive car w/ the cleets from my clip-less pedals on my shoes....fuck that asshole.
driving drunk keeps coming up the last few days....is there anything stupider or less considerate??? i dont think so...just DONT FUCKING DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!
and now i am off to spend about 4 hours screen-printing for the I OBJECT! European Tour!!
--STOKED!!!!!

spending the day at home relaxing in my comfy punx attire due to last night....
a crew of us were on our was to a party/food not bombs benefit on out bicycles last night when a car turned in front of us flipping my friend benji over the car and causing ethan and myself to run in to it as well....
benji was taken to the hospital and his bike is total (but he is ok)
i feel alright, just super sore and out of it...and my brand new bike aint doing so well
ethans are was up past his elbow through the spokes of my back wheel, he shoulder is thrown out.
it was one of the scariest things that i have ever seen having benji taken away in a stretcher...considering how bad things could have been i suppose we're super lucky....

after realizing that i havent gone on a bike ride since i was tattooed last week (due to the sensitivity of the area) i was DETERMINED to go on a bike ride tonight.
i wanted to get all the things done that i needed to and after a long phone conversation and stretching a screen i was just getting ready to do so...like LITERALLY just getting ready to do so and i heard the sound of the crash of thunder and it just started pouring rain outside. now part of me is super pissed and a part of me just wants to say "fuck it" and go out riding in the rain.

yesterday was BGD (Big Garbage Day) in the somewhat more wealthy area of buffalo south of hertel ave. i spent about 3 hours driving around w/ 2 of the kids from 99 custer finding amazing treasures that these fucking morons just decided weren't good enough for them anymore.
the finds included (but weren't limited to..);
-a dehumidifier
-a new toilet (we're gonna steal the parts that ours needs...SCORE)
-a shop-vac
-a triple LP best of Stevie Wonder record
there were some other amazing things as well.
people can be so smarmy....even when it comes to their possessions.....and THE PUNX are reaping all the benefits!!!!!
DON'T FEAR THE REAPER!!!!!
