Comment here with your name and I'll tell you something I adore (or at least mildly like) about you. Afterwards, copy and paste this into your own journal.

Ok I know it's been ages since I last posted anything meaningful, but I have been extremely busy and on my list of things to do this was at the bottom, sorta next to organizing my DVD collection; not really but I couldn't think of anything that was really low on my list of things to do. Honestly I don't know if I have any friends left on my friends list. With that behind me on to the post...

My last real post was 8.20.04 and it is now 12.5.05 so a little over 3 months since then a lot as gone on. Mostly work. I still work at Charter, and that is going pretty good. I am about to finish 2 more sites GKA TV and Party Girls And then I will start 2 more sites. Lately I have been feeling like a very uncreative robot maybe that has a lot to do with the fact that I do the same thing everyday. Sorta like my friend George Jetson. So to fix that I am going to redo my PHUKA DVD. Hopefully that will get me back in the swing of things. I am really getting burnt out on web design, I really want to do more video, and DVD's. A few weeks ago I shot a commercial for my barber Kenny B, and that turned out pretty good.

It has been a long and expensive process but Peanut Head Productions is now Peanut Head Productions Inc. I am getting the company bank account then it will be official!

I am trying something new this year, and that is I am not going to the mall to shop. (well not for big things) I am going to do it all online. So to inspire everyone else to do the same here is my online wish list.

I also have an Anchor Blue one, but it doesn't have a direct link.

What else is new?.......

Me and Courtney went to SD for Thanksgiving, and we had a blast! On Thurs we did the dinner thing, and of course there was Dutch Apple pie, and my mom's famous Mac and Cheese! *Yummy* on Friday I took Court to get her first Tattoo. She got a flower, and Japanese symbol that means "Self Confidence" on her Ankle. We also had dinner at Friday's. On Saturday we went to Barona to do a little gambling. Courtney did quite well, I didn't *LOL* Then we saw the Incredibles. On Sunday we headed home. Can you believe we have been dating for over 2.5 years? me either!

For Christmas I am staying with Courtney and her family on Christmas Eve, then spending Christmas with my dad, and sister since my mom and other sister are going to Kansas City.

I am getting tired of parades!

I'm getting tired to typing, so I am going to go. I'm going to Court's house to get my things. She said she is sad, so hopefully I can cheer her up!

It took a lot for me to write this entry. I have been trying to put my thoughts into words for the last few days, but was unable. On Wednesday my good friend Kim Hauber was killed in a tragic accident. She was doing what she does best being helpful and thoughtful and her life was taken from her like that. She went out to help a neighbor change a flat tire on the North bound side of the 15 freeway and an oversized truck caring construction equipment came by and clipped her sending her flying, and killing her. The driver said that he blew his horn. Nevertheless they should have stopped. Kim, and her neighbor were way over on the shoulder . Also the police officer that came to the scene said that the equipment was over the edge way too much.

I got the call 15 minutes till 1, and I was on my way to work. I can still hear Alex's voice as he told me the news. He was hysterical, and I rushed to his aid. The whole way there I was hoping that this was some sort of cruel joke, but as I pulled into the driveway and saw his neighbor in tears the reality started to sink in. Alex was still at the scene, but I waited with another neighbor for him to show. When he did in a rage of anger and emotion he started pounding the garage, his car, and he tossed whatever was in his hand. We were able to calm him down. He gave me a hug and told me I was like a son to him and Kim, and we both started crying.

By then the word was out, and everyone started showing up to show their support. Alex and Kim's family, neighbors, the BMX team and we started talking about good memories that we had with Kim. Afterwards I went to Court's who gave me plenty of support. When We went up to her room it all just came out in a wave of tears. I was and still am so confused about everything. Why did Kim have to go now, she was so young, and things were looking up for her and her family.

Kim was like a mom, and a really good friend. I told her just about everything, and she gave me advice on everything. She was so supportive. Every-time we talked she asked if I asked Courtney to marry me yet. She was very big on romantic things, and every time she saw a neat way that someone proposed she would tell me. She was very supportive of the me and Courtney, and thought that we were the perfect couple.

This is the first death that I have experienced first hand, and it has been hard. I keep thinking what would I do if I was in Alex's shoes. He is a very strong guy.

This whole experience has made me thankful for what I have. I have a good job, an excellent loving supportive gf, and friends and family to match.

I got to talk to Alex today, and he sound's a lot better which is very relieving, and now maybe I can stop reliving the events on Wed. Every-time that I had to retell the story has been hard for me, even in this entry I was holding back tears. I still have the funeral on Tuesday, and I know that's going to be hard for many reasons.

I know Kim is still out there, and watching over me, and I try to remember the good times that we had. I'm glad that she got to go to my graduation, because I feel that if it wasn't for her telling Alex about the job I wouldn't be where I am today. Well I have to go back to work, I would just like to say a VERY BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has been supportive during this hard time, My Parents, Court's Parent's, my friends, and most of all Courtney, I LOVE YOU BABE!

I found this on KevinRose.com and wanted to share this 25 free prints Print this coupon then go to Target to get your 25 free digital prints.

Believe it or not I actually miss school. It's so weird how fast the days go by now that Im not in school, with no big deadlines and stuff. So you ask what have I been up to. Well not much really. At the moment I am sitting nude in my chair listening to some tunes and writing this entry. I know it's not a pretty picture to most of you but air drying is the way to go. Haven't you seen Jerry Maguire? Anyways I really need to work on time management because I really have a lot of time on my hands but I spend a lot of it sitting around thinking of things to do. Well last Sunday Alex took me to the X Games to pay me back for a site that I did for him. Also to try to help me get more work. we were at the Girls of Action booth, I spent most of the day taking pics of the female pro BMX, and skaters for the site E.A.G.L. BMX. But I did meet up with these guys that do an all girl action sports TV show Gka TV, and I sent them a proposal for a redesign for their site. I hope they accept. *crosses fingers* Also the lady that does PR for OP Girls Learn to Ride said that she may have some work for me, so I hope that goes through. I have been thinking about getting an X Box, and a wireless router with this next check so that I can get out of my room. Other than that I have Sunday's and Monday's off from work, so that's a plus. Well Courtney just called, and invited me to lunch so I need to go get dressed.

Ok to get everyone up to speed this is what I have been up to:

I currently work for Charter Media in the ad sales department. I am digital encoder (I digitize commercials, and 30-60 minute shows so they can air). Charter media is a small off shoot of Charter Communications. Charter Comm. is a cable company up here in LA. The job is pretty cool. They have awesome benefits, and it gets me away from El Torito.

Speaking if El Torito I went back last Sunday so my regulars can buy me a drink, and pretty much say good bye to my co-workers. Well one over the servers over heard Jose (the bartender that hates me) telling the GM that I was stealing alcohol. *WTF* In my last month I may have came in late, not shaved at times, but I DIDN'T Steal. That pissed me off. To my face he's all cool, but the moment I’m not around he talks shit. What ever I’m done with that place. I still feel like I should go up to the GM, and tell him I'm not a thief. Cause I don't want to come in to El Torito and get the stink eye from everyone cause I was labeled a "Thief".

I have been doing a lot of freelance the last couple of weeks, and to reward myself I went out and bought my 17" Powerbook! YES it kicks major ass! Thanks to tphanich, and my friends Jorge and Steve it is fully loaded with the latest programs. Now I just need to get a wireless hub, and then I can leave my room.

I can't wait till tomorrow because I get my first check. I can't start saving to move out.

Court and me are doing well; we had a little tiff a few days ago, but that is all cleared up. Now that I am making more money I can afford to take her out more, and buy her special things. [thinking out loud] Maybe on Sunday we can do something special since I have the day off [/ thinking out loud]

Well that's about it. Time to get ready for work

Ok here is the scoop:

The San Diego Show kicked major ass, thanks for everyone that helped make this happen; the bands, my team, and everyone who came out! We didn't quite break even but we came damn close so that's a good enough reason to throw another show! The next show is going to be towards the end of Aug at Dream St. in SD.

I'm back at home after staying at Court's for the last week. I really miss having someone around to talk to, and cuddle, and wake up next too *note to self: save money$$*

I have been really busy though so that keeps my mind off of being lonely. I just got a job with Charter Communications. This was the position that I didn't think that I would get because they usually hire from within. Well I got it and beet out 10 others so GO ME!!! They are one of the larger cable providers in LA, and I am going to be a digital encoder. digital encoder: Person who digitizes video It's not the greatest of jobs but it's a start, and they have some pretty cool benefits! I also might get to do some promoting for 80's night at club Xes in Hollywood

Anyways I am working on this flash project that is kicking my butt, so I am going to go eat some lunch then come back.

Sorry for the short post...

I knew I shouldn't have fallen asleep during Secret Window now I can't sleep.

I need a job!
