Going out

Last Saturday, I went to Nate's white trash theme party. It was pretty fun, but for some reason, none of the liquor stores were open, so I had to settle for beer. The costumes were great. I kept it simple with a white, see-through t-shirt, jeans shorts, and tennis shoes, but the highlight was the faux-preggers woman with rollers in her hair, a drink in one hand, and a cigarette in the other.

Last night, I saw The Proposition, a gory Australian Western that knocked my socks off. Seek this one out, if the preceding description interested you at all. You won't be sorry.

Tubing

OK, it was the Comal River we went tubing on, but next time it may be the Guadalupe. I hear that's more of a real river, and less of a theme park ride. Not that there was anything wrong with tubing the Comal, it was a lot of fun. I got some very weird sunburn shapes on my shoulders where I apparently didn't do a very good job applying the lotion, but nothing too terrible. It wore me out more than I expected, though. I was almost asleep by 10:00pm. That's what beer and sun will do to you on a hot afternoon.

All the latest

Gearing up for the weekend again tonight, since I have tomorrow off. I'll likely be going tubing on the Guadalupe River for the first time since I moved to Austin. I've wanted to go since I found out about it, but never had the opportunity until now. I hope the weather's good.

Last weekend was great, hanging out with friends, watching bands, walking around downtown, and driving through the northern neighborhoods at night. I'm coming out of a funk that's persisted on a low level since my computer blew up, and got worse when I started having some digestive problems a few weeks ago.

It's all better now, and I'm ready to get back to work on some music videos for spec. That and I'm buying new stuff for the business to actually make use of some of this capital that's been sitting in a checking account earning no interest for months.

On top of that, I think I've hit on a way to lose some weight that's not onerous and should work for me. I plan to start working out again Monday, after about a month's hiatus. That's the news.
