reaching the end

Tomorrow is the first day of December. Making the end of November, near end of the year, rent is due, christmas will be all over the place, and "best of 2009" list for everything. I am working on my list right now BTW, that's "by the way" the way the cool kids say it... maybe. This December is going to be a gnarly one. We are planning on trips to see both families while still having christmas day all by ourselves. Sounds like a hybrid of Ebenezer Scrooge and the movie four Christmases. I think we may be able to pull it off. Just to get a head start we put up our Huge tree.

Yo riley,

If your interested here's a link to a video I made of one of my friends watching the Real Madrid vs Barcelona....I think you'll be bummed to hear C. Ronaldo and his boys lost 2-0. I i remember a quote of you saying "I don't think i would fan out on anybody, except if I saw C. Ronaldo." If you decide to guest post it, make sure you mention that quote, or if you remember exactly how you said it, correct it.

useless update

This is the first time I have gone a week without posting in a long time. In laws were in town, thanksgiving and the internet in our apartment was down. To make clear the seriousness of the internet situation... I just now watched Tuesdays episode of the The Hills. Thanksgiving was legit, lots of great food, shopping and time to relax.

oh yeah, saw a dope bike at the apple store... well outside the apple store, just to clarify.

one of those days

Today has been one of those days where, I'm sure my wife has gotten annoyed with the fact, I have been listening to the same artist all day. In her credit, she rarely complains and actually enjoys most of the music I listen to.

i should be doing homework.

got this from my sister in law.

New place

this is a decent picture of our new decent view of down town.

re-locate

over the weekend my wife and I moved. It may have been only a block south from our previous location, but it seems like a whole other world... sorry for that last statement, can you tell I've been unpacking for the last few days? Our new space is a lot older and a lot more awesome. It has more space to create things, so maybe all those projects I have started in my head may actually get started for real... probably not.

beyonce had one of the best videos of all time

Until this came out.

Surfer Blood

First it was Surf City now it's Surfer Blood. I tend to like bands with surf in the title. Contrary to my first statement, it's still Surf City. They are, and have been, my favourite band for over a year. It's the only 6 song ep i have never gotten tired of. Anyway.... back to surfer blood. This video is, obviously, really mellow.

Now for less mellow, more awesome.

I posted a photo a while back of my bro mike. Today i went to a skateboard site today (getting more and more rare) and noticed they posted an interview with him. Mike Vince, friend, former room mate, mellow bro, dope skateboarder.

The new TWO COOKIE blog, I know it was different only two days ago..

halloween aka worst fashion day ever

Every year for halloween, and the weeks leading up to it, I find myself more and more amazed at the the variety of clothes people get away with wearing on halloween. It's all in the name of a fun. You get your typical clown, urban kid dressed as a cowboy and the costume of the year. Last year was the joker from dark knight, this year wild things....anyway. The point is those are okay costumes. There is, however, this redicouslous "i can get away with anything" attitude. You can't take a respectable uniform, such as a doctors outfit and cut a crotch length skirt and make the shirt have a belly button neckline and call it a costume. That is trashy and handing out free candy to kids is creepy... on everyday other than good old halloween.

my sister sent me this photo a few weeks ago, I was waiting for the right time to post it. You cannot see the high heal clogs or the fact that the pants are satin. If this picture was taken on saturday it would not be so funny, it would just be a lame costume.

so, Trev started blogging.... mostly about bikes.
