in the afternoon
they lean against
one another
and you can see how much
they like the sun

-bukowski. elephants in the zoo.



the other day i received a lovely hand-crafted card with a tiny elephant on the front that reminded me of this poem. which is so wonderful in its ability to be the simplest of simple yet send a chill down my spine. i cannot wait to go to the zoo. i love to watch the elephants squinting in the sun (like kitties when you pet their noses) and think about their big, huge brains and what is going on in there.

unemployment for the past week has been totally fucking groovy.
getting fired, well, ruled.
and the fun and games continues until i start a new job thursday, viva!


rexxalicious daaaaaaays of freelicious freedom, a photo documentary, shall now commence.


wandering in the graves! finding hidden gems:

and not so hidden ones. a little self-indulgent, i think:

lounging in bed naked looking at pictures of baby monkeys and crocodiles.

setting out on 7+mile wanderings in the shiny sun!

taking a breather before trekking over the river and into the distance


climbing the man made waterfall by the pirates stadium (currently sans water) to write and nap



cooking things! delicious meats for jambalaya
(and jambal-omelettes in the morning!)

smoking lots of grand weed

baking! my first cake ever!
strawberry/white chocolate batter, vanilla pudding filling, strawberry icing with melted white chocolate swirled in, covered in more white chocolate chips. strawberry blunts! strawberry cakes! now all i need is some..strawberries?

i think that cake is best enjoyed with coffee for breakfast.

my grandma sent me five dollars in my easter card so wandered four miles and got a new creepy demon bead to replace the one i lost in mosh a few weekends ago

PORCH BEERS/SCRABBLE!

under groovy stormy skies

with grill jams and mr. pumpkin head playing the hits

i killed it in scrabble despite the fact that i was getting distracted by thoughts of what lie waiting in the fridge..

BAAAAACON!!! BACON! MY BELOVED BACON!

latest bacon concoction: velveeta shell and cheese with bacon and barbecue chicken all mixed in..

topped with sriracha! duh!




that fills you in on little ole non-working me.
proof that you really can have no money and no problems!

the last of my dollars have been lying dormant and are quivering in anticipation of tomorrow. i set out for nyc to meet up with zepp101 for kati rolls and whiskey and beer till the cows come home. or at least until the bars close…then tuesday its off to philly for a show and for cheesesteak with mothafuckin whiz and for adventures. adventures. ADVENTURES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

thanks for stopping by groove-thangs.
eat, drink, and be merry.


i'm going to get naked and go dream sweetly of bacon and travels to come with the new day.

ciao/meow.
