Easter

This is my first easter away from the family.

Not gonna lie, it's not so bad; this is the first time in a few years where it isn't raining on Easter. Seriously though, all these little white kids need to get some cascarones in their life.

For those of you that don't know, cascarones are confetti filled eggshells that you hunt for, and then crack on each other after the hunt. I'm used to eggs that look like these:













You need to see the amounts that people are selling on the street corners outside gas stations in South Texas. We don't fuck around.

Anyway, happy Easter everyone! If you don't believe, just be grateful for the day off.

bored to death

No, not the show. The Twilight Zone instead.

I have deduced that I am an incredibly boring person. Maybe this is due to the fact that I am viciously attempting to complete my Bachelor's degree one year early while working two jobs.

Or maybe it's because I don't have cable or satellite television.

Or because I am not of legal age to hit up the bars & clubs.

Who knows. A friend says that I have Internet access, so nothing is an excuse.

But we'll see. I'll be 21 in two weeks, and my final semester will be over. It will then be time to turn the fun switch on.


I'll try to survive the next two weeks.

while watching Next Great Baker

James: What are they baking?

Michael: Cakes.

James: Well no shit, but what's the theme?

Michael: Christmas?... yeahh Christmas.

Christmas

Christmas in the Rio Grande Valley is pretty lame if you're from somewhere else: it doesn't get very cold; English is a second language; & everything is closed for two days straight. [even Whataburger!]

But location means nothing for our family. We found ourselves watching this shit on Christmas Eve after our meal consisting of a deli tray & spinach dip:


Watch it. I had never heard of this kid until last night, AND THAT'S BECAUSE I saw his interview on Chelsea Lately. It's pretty damn funny. This one may even prove to be better. [He reminds me of Mort Goldman from Family Guy]
I can't believe Willow Smith is only 9. Will Smith needs to get his kids' lives together because he is setting them up for some crazy shit.

Merry Christmas everyone.

someone said I should start a blog.

So I did.

It's Christmas Eve, I'm sick, & I have nothing better to do while my brother annoyingly blares his music & my parents bake date bread together in the kitchen. [That's right, they're baking TOGETHER.]

I took DayQuil for the first time in my life today. It helped instantly, but I felt shitty again within a few minutes. Now I know why I always judged my ex for doing that.

All I know right now is that I am glad to be home and spend some quality time with my family, & more importantly, my dachshund.

[I just coughed on my screen.]
