music, music, music....... playing guitar and singing/recording while beligerently drunk, working in a coffee shop, meeting new people, , road trips and pb&j sandwiches. Oh, bowling...... definitely bowling, and finding a way to kick the crap out of the band every time i die... had to change band name once cause of those bastards...... they'll pay dearly, doing the occasional solo acoustic open mic night, bonfires in the desert, spending time with my girlfriend, snowboarding, skating, hiking Mt. Charleston , greek food, freestyle rapping (no, really...), hanging out with all my Starbucks crew (say what you will about starbucks, we're all pimps, and you know it.... don't hate), going to shows on the occasion, ....umm, I read, sometimes... and COKE (the drink you idiot)... that stuff's so addictive.
