Hi, this is from some time in Vancouver. That is a lady who is probably on drugs, she was acting crazy and looking for something. I just chose a random one for today, because I worked for twelve hours, my wrist is very sore, but working (kindof) and I’m going to bed. I am hopefully going to dream sweet things, sleep deep sleep. And wake up and do it all again tomorrow! yayy! I guess I made half of one months rent today. So that is pretty okay.

Also, Reilly got to skate Secret Pool? Not fair.

Video Times!

Okay, so I said I wasn’t going to post until tomorrow, but I’ll be really tired, and I have a lot of things for linkin’. One is this dude’s blog called Daily Skate, which means that if you like skateboarding, and skateboarding videos, you can kiss a lot of your free time goodbye, because there’s one every day.

The fact that the “page title/blog title” is actually just a period mark, is kinda annoying for using a bookmark button thing. Anyways.

And then below here:

Is something I managed to find randomly on youtube, from the user Casual Puffin who has uploaded a whole lot of “Casual Skateboarding” videos from around the UK mostly it seems. Good fun though. The bomb drop at the end of that last one is just out the window.

Okay. I’m a dork.

Hooooooooo-kay. I start work again tomorrow. It’s officially the day where I find out how fucked my wrist is. I’ve been leaning on pretty fucked for a while now. But I stretched in the hot tub (first time in since coming home) and it felt pretty good. When I was in there, I was getting pretty close to full mobility on the thing (it isn’t now that it’s not so loose), and that’s pretty awesome. So there’s a good chance I’ll be hot tubbin’ all week. I also have a wrist brace, one with magnets, which are supposed to be wonderful amazing for the body. I had in fact not realized that my parents would praise the power of them, and I trust their opinion, so I’m trying it out.

Well. I really don’t know what else to say. I’ve got probably about….eight? tabs open in my browser with fun stuff to link, mostly related to skateboarding, but I’m kinda tired, and still grumpy/bummed. So I’ll post them….tomorrow? It will give me something to do when I’m completely and wholly exhausted.

From on the way home from Whistler last month.

I’ve learned at Art Schoolâ„¢ that the only way to make good art, is to do something you care about. I have not taken any photos since coming home that I’ve been genuinely excited about. And I’m getting pretty bummed. And my usual escape that puts me into good moods, le skateboarding, is not as accessible here. That’s stupid I know. Skateboarding is about creativity, using your environment to create, everything. But tranny (my love) is too far away for me without a car. And I can’t really afford gas right now even. And the bus/subway/bus takes forever.

I guess, I’m just bummed. And I don’t know exactly what to do about it. But I’m going to go to a parking lot and figure out how to find some more pop. And maybe how to get off a curb. Or something.

Also. If I don’t start taking more photos that I’m stoked about soon. I’m going to put this site on hiatus until I do.

Went to Vanderhoof today. It’s still my favourite park in Toronto. Annnnnnnd, I did one (1) axle stall there, on a five foot wall. That’s the biggest I’ve done, cause I think Keswick is four? Either way, I was stoked. Another first too, but it will remain, A SUPRISE. Until I get way better.

Also, I saw Monica Lee! She is one of my favourites here. For defs. I don’t have much else to say about her, just that we seem to get each other.
