This Blog Still Has a Pulse!



Beep...Beep...Beep.

This blog is still alive and kicking. I am sorry for the long delay. I meant to blog from the road on my many adventures over the past couple months but I guess I was having too much of a good time to do it. So with this post I am not going to be yammering on about some topic, I will be telling you about what I have been up to. My long drive from California back to Kansas, a lovely weekend in Kansas City and what I am up to now.

First I started out on a very early morning flight out of Wichita heading to LAX to move my girlfriend back to good old Wichita Kansas. For some reason every flight out of Wichita to LA must go in the total opposite direction. So I headed a couple hundred miles toward Nashville and after a hour layover I was headed to Cali. When I touch down my lovely lady was there to pick me up. Now I don't know about many of you who have visited California but my two absolute favorite things to do are one , Jack in the Box and two sandy beaches. We first did both on the way to visit my Mom. We stopped in Laguna at a park and beach straight out of the show. Californiacation. After some potatoe wedges and some bloody feet from the rocks kicked up at the beach , we were headed to beautiful San Diego!

So after having dinner with my Mom and hanging with some of Kat's friends , we began our 26 hour journey to Wichita. So we ran into some problems right away when we ran out of room in her car. So we used cellophane to attach the rest to the roof. Oh yes I am talking the stuff you wrap up your left over Sloppy Joe's with.

Yes it was very loud and we only added that duct tape half-way through the trip because it was too loud.

One of our stops was one I have been wanting to do since I was a kid on my many trips to the West coast was stop at the world's largest crater. Every time as a kid I saw the sign my parents said no. So now I am a adult! Dah dah DAAHH! I can! and it was every thing you would think it would be...fucking deep!

I got some good souviners too. A bag of space food and a U.S. Marshal's badge? Yeah I question the second too seeing as how it has nothing to do with the crater but I had to buy it , it was the kid in me.

Then we were off again we made a bunch more rest stops. One which I picked up an indian tomahawk , which is now resting on my mantle. I am not going to lie it was a grueling drive I dont think I ever consumed so many energy drinks. I think Rockstar's stock alone jump 15% from me. I was never so happy to see OKC knowing we were just three hours away.

We finally arrived at eight in the morning to my surprise a beautiful day and I couldn't believe no snow. I know not that exciting of a trip but I had a blast and its been over a month and we are still unpacking!

Since I am running a little longer than I thought I will sum up the next two topics in these next paragraphs.

I got to go to Kansas City to celebrate a friends twenty first birthday.
First we got a private tour of the Royals stadium. It was awesome we got to go to the dug out and I got to sit in the manager's seat in the press room. We also got to go to the college basketball experience which if you are a basketball fan like me but with little skill, you will feel like a champ there. They have a buzzer beat challenge in which you get five seconds to make the game winning shot from a certain place and the first time I made it I celbrated like I just won the National Championship. I jump into my girl's arms and made her hoist me into the air. I about broke her, good thing I didn't because it would've be a bitch of a drive to return her for a new one.




The last exciting thing that has happen to me is this lovable pup. His name is Ben Obi-Wan Kenobi and we adopted him from the humane society and he has brought me so much joy and time to practice cleaning, seeing how he keeps shitting in the basement but I still love his slobbery ass. My girlfriend thinks I spoil him too much but seeing how I am doing things my parents wouldn't let me do when I was younger, the dog was definitely at the top of my list.
Well thats it for today. Now that I am back and ready to write expect me to get back on here at least once a week though I am hoping for twice but I will be starting a podcast sometime soon so maybe that will keep me busy. Also I am working on three comic books right now hopefully two of them will be picked up soon. I will keep you posted.

Until next time,
