birthday/thanksgiving

Well I'm 21 now and it's pretty much the same except I can go waste my money on beer in smelly crowded bars and rent a hotel room. Woohoo! My birthday just happened to land on my favorite holiday this year, Thanksgiving, which was an awesome birthday present! I had some pre game celebration Thanksgiving eve with my mom and chels. We went up to the bar at midnight and i drank my first legal beer with my mom and girlfriend which was cool.

Thanksgiving day we ate dinner with my family and then headed over  the Emery household for the real party. The night consisted of multiple shots of patron, beer, wine, apples to apples, scattagories and more food! It was an awesome two day birthday celebration and i enjoyed my all day nap the day after thanksgiving.

P.S. 

Currently working on some covers i want to record and put up on youtube. here's the list:

The Spill Canvas-This is for keeps

Elliot Smith-Baby britain

Built To Spill-the weather

The Hush Sound-Where we went wrong

Say Anything-I want to know your plans

So keep an eye out, don't know when I'll get around to it but i really want to.

It's so weird for me to think about how it must feel to walk. I think about it constantly and dream about it almost every night.  I haven't walked in a little over a month and it's gonna sound horribly cliche but it's definitely an eye-opener.  I look at someone who is doomed to wheel around in a wheelchair or use a walker for the rest of their life, and I can't help but look at my life and realize how fucking lucky I am.  Yeah it's hard to be stuck in a room 24/7 watching your body deteriorate right in front of you and going semi-stir crazy simultaneously, but It's nothing compared to what some people in this world go through. 

So I've decided to not bitch about my situation and just get through it. If you hear me complaining just knock me upside the old coconut and say "Hey pussy...shut your face hole and suck it up, cause it could be ALOT worse."  

In other news, I have this awesome person in my life who I have yet to brag about.  Now I'm not one to throw my personal life out there but I can't help but be stoked about this girl.  Over half of our relationship I've been on crutches, and she's been so great about doing everything from the biggest to the smallest stuff without question.  She is the most unexpected present I have received in the last year and I am so glad to know her and I'm able to share everything with her.  She doesn't want to change me, she just wants to be with me, and I don't think i could ask for more.  

So thanks for putting up with me over the last month and I swear I will make it up to you.

watch this and don't laugh.

So I was watching t.v. and all of a sudden my cable went out and the only channel I can get is fox news...Conspiracy?

Well Halloween was awesome!  I got to be a flesh eating handicap zombie and walk around with my trusty sexy samurai at my side!  As you can see my mom got in the spirit and dressed up as a Mexican.  A little too convincing if you ask me, but she did a great job!  

No candy unfortunately.  We didn't get done getting ready until about eight, and by then all the houses were dark and kids were inside sorting their goodies into separate piles by color, flavor etc. 

So we hit Micky D's to show off our sweet costumes to my brother who was working and were greeted with a lot of funny looks and snickers (Not the candy kind sadly).  We continued on to Jimmy John's and met up with the Matt's to sit and eat sandwich's and Halloween cup cakes thanks to miss Lara! Thanks again!

Next we went to borders where we were found even more funny looks and glares from staff and costumers.  We sat around reading magazines and Chelsea showed me the infamous Scary Stories book that had all three Scary Stories books inside. I read one and had to put it down before I wet my wheelchair!

After borders we hit up Chelsea's mom's pub where we met up with her parents and shot the shit for about ten minutes before heading to her house where I decided I couldn't take the itchiness of the face paint and reluctantly washed my face before we head off the the rice boys house where we were for the rest of the night. 

All in all it was a great night, except for forgetting my phone and not realizing it until entering my driveway and having to drive all the way back to the Rice's house.  My bed was a welcome sight and i slept like a little handicap baby! Hope everybody had a Happy Halloween!
