First Snow

I would like to dedicate this post to the inevitable feeling of detest I will probably have for snow after the winter is done. I mean I'll still love some aspects of it but I anticipate hating the annoying aspects that will make themselves evident soon enough. So cheers to you, white stuff.



I've been struggling to think of stuff to post. I'm overwhelmed by the unceasing posting ability of Todd and the daily methodical music emails from Kyle. I can't do that anymore. I just don't have the gusto.

But speaking of gusto, I learned yesterday that skating is still way up there on the list of things I love to do. A little too late because a short 12 hours after I was battered and bloody thanks to mal-performed trickery, the snow was upon us. I don't know if I ever wrote this down when I was in Paris, but since this acts as a type of journal, I'll recount the story now. So I was skating in front of my apart at the musée d'orsay ledges one sunday evening in (probably) may or june when I met a brazillian kid that just came to skate the ledges. We proceeded to talk and skate and try to get 15 foot boardslides on the marble. I remember being stoked to meet another random person that just wanted to skate. That's all. Good story right? Well let me transition to my Saturday night.

So I got off work and went to Whiskey Jacks with Kevin. Kev wanna be like Ted. haha. Anyway, I was there chillin and trying to find somebody that would dance with me. (On a side note, why are white girls so creeped out when you ask them to dance? I'm not asking for you to conceive my child... Dance with a guy if he asks you and if you're not feeling it, then tell him to get lost. Don't dance seductively in front of me and then act like I demanded one of your kidneys when I ask to dance.) Anyway, Walz and LJ and Dan show up and start dancing too. Then! out of the corner of my eye I say this red-latex-dress clad female. Dayum. So I go talk to her and ask her the reason for her sexy nurse halloween costume. I got an answer and was about to leave her alone (because of all the previous weird looks I'd gotten from chicks that night) and then she asked me what my name was...keeping me there. I was blown away. Wait, you want to talk to me?!? Okay... So we talk a little and dance a little and then talk a little more. But damn it, her cousin had to leave and since she was from not Vail, she had to go with. 'Edwards is a long ass taxi ride' was the thought process, I'm sure. So she left. I was bummed. She was really awesome. The power ended up going out and then I went to some other peeps house, met some chillers, and finally returned home. As it turns out, the foxy lady from the club had found me on facebook. I woke up to a call that said I didn't have to go to work and then a facebook request from her. That was a good way to wake up. So she left to go back to her state of residence, but she might be coming back for Thanksgiving. It would really be cool to hang out with her more. She seemed sweet and incredibly genuine (not to mention, seductive). Oh and she was Brazilian. There! Tied the two stories together.


I watched the movie Holy Rollers this afternoon. Pretty good flick. It was shot really well even though they didn't get into the personal sentiments of some of the characters enough. I would most certainly recommend it. It also had a pretty awesome soundtrack. And the song at the top that you're probably listening to now, is from the movie. I'd recommend buying some of the tracks here.

Living with John has been great so far. I'm happy to have someone else to be around. The by-myself living situation was okay, but I missed the human contact. Of course there are some things that he does that I don't and vice-versa, but we'll figure it out.



I want to make another chill mix pretty soon. Maybe tomorrow? We'll see. I have alot of songs that I've already added to a potentially-using-this playlist on iTunes. I could take it in a few directions. I'm trying to decide between a mellow drum & bass feel or a more indie rock feel. Maybe I'll do two. Maybe not. Regardless, this song kinda spurred the desire: If you like this, buy it or dirpy it.

My last song is a remix of a video I posted a really long time ago when I was still in France. Mimosa killed it: DAYS GO BY (MiMOSA REMiXXX)- DiRTY VEGAS by TigranMiMoSA Also, if you're not familiar with soundcloud, you can download by clicking the little down arrow above...

Enjoi.

Oh shoot. I'll post this one. It's Heavy, but the melody of the song might get used in the chill mix. Can't decide yet. Gold Guns Girls ( Philthy B & Metaphase Remix ) by Philthy B
