I'm so fucking pissed right now. I really don't know why. A job I have done for the last 5 years during the summer was given to another assistant. HE is CHEAPER than me. The fucker (photog) would save $250 by using some fucktard that doesn't know the job like I do. Granted it isn't that hard or interesting of a photo assisting job it's just that it's 5 days of pay I'm not getting in an already shitty summer. OK so i guess that's why I'm pissed.
In somewhat better news I'm going to Seattle next month.

So lots of stuff has been going on this weekend. I spent about 17 hours or so photographing Motocross races this weekend in Everman (tiny town SE of FT worth). A good friend of mine brought me along to help him shoot these races. I learned a ton about action photography and got some really sweet portfolio shots. The photos will be for sale on line and that's how we will make our money. Hopefully sales will be good. I shot over 1,000 images this weekend. My camera also got super dirty and I had to use a whole can of air to clean it and my lenses. The people that races in these things and their families are some of the nicest people I have met in a long time. I was given Gatorades and had some really nice conversations with total strangers. There was one kid there who is 3 and already has two motorcycles !! How badass is that ? My parents wouldn't even let me have a skateboard !
Also, Molly and I are now calling ourselves BF and GF. Too fucking cool. We went to a party for a bit on Saturday night and met some of her friends. They are rather good cooks, they had shark, shrimp, pork loin and bratwurst. No fucking around on the food. I also got to see her kitten that she is adopting. She kept crawling into my lap and falling asleep, so I guess that makes her a cool cat. Molly picked her up last night and brought her home. Well anyways, I'm going to the FT Worth Zoo with Molly, my folks and my niece Olivia so see you guys laters.

Molly is so great and awesome and I'm gonna run out of adjectives.... Envy me bitches!!!
The date went really good and we're gonna go out again sometime soon!!! I'm super happy.
OK so I got some good advice the other day. I asked that girl i wrote about the other day about her status with that guy she mentioned. She said there is no status he dumped her. Then I asked if she would like to go out on a date and she said yes. So I'm taking her out on Sunday. I'll keep ya posted.
oh on a totally different note, I met Chuck Noriss today.

So there is this girl i've known for about 6 years. I've been chatting with her online and been trying to make plans to go out sometime with her. So we finally make plans to eat dinner on Wed, and then after we make plans, she says "brb got a call from this guy i';m dating. " WTF. She just made plans with me and she's all of a sudden dating somebody that she's never mentioned. WTF. So now there's no fucking way I'm taking her to dinner. Screw that. I'm gonna make up some excuse. What am I ?? A fucking eunic? Oh well I was gonna put a happy post on here about having a date coming up but instead I get to complain, which seems to be the only thing I'm good at.
A whole bunch o people headed down to Austin this weekend to see Fu Manchu at Emo's. I was one of them. I got to get the fuck outta the dfw area for a whole 27 hours or so. Sweet. Best part was I DIDN'T DRIVE!! well cept after the show when everyone was drunk. more on that later. We got to Austin and checked into the hotel. The lady at the counter was a bitch and stupid. JOY! Red Roof Inns are dumps BTW. Hung out there for a bit and then headed down to The Drafthouse Pub. They drank, I watched. Drove down to 6th street and hung out at Coyote Ugly for a bit. Interesting place, but rather annoying after about 20 minutes. Went over to EMO's. I haven't seen a show there in probably 8 years or so. It was awesome and so were the chicks. Hot ones everywhere. Anyways there were two opening bands Lions and Honky. Both were rather good. Between sets i was talking with one of my best friends and he told us him and his wife are moving to California next month. Huge surprise. I'm happy for them but it will suck to see him go. I've known this guy ever since the 10th grade. Anyways Fu Manchu came on and kicked serious ass. Super loud and great. After the show Johnny and Amy were trashed but wanted another beer. So we walked on down to the next bar and they proceeded to buy some beers and then just drunkenly hold the beers and not drink them. I must mention this is almost 2am and the last time I ate any kind of food was before 2pm. I'M Fucking HUNGRY!!!!!. And so are Tim and Minh. We drag the drunks back to the car where Johnny tries to tell me he's good to drive. I tell him to give me the fucking keys cuz he ain't driving, I am. I'm sober. very very sober. It's Amy's car and she is freaking out that I'm driving, but she is waaaay drunk tells me to switch seats she's driving. I ask her if she knows any other jokes and proceed to tell her to shut up. So we get the drunks back to the hotel and then we meet my brother at Kirby Lane for some much needed food. I had kickass eggs, bacon, homefries, toast, OJ and coffee. It was sooooooooo good. I had decided that i would crash at dave's instead of the hotel. I was gonna end up sleeping on the floor at the hotel and fuck that Dave has a spare mattress. Crashed at his place finally fell asleep around 5 am or so. Minh called around 1030am to ask if I knew where the car keys were. They thought I had them. Turns out when we got back to hotel before going to eat, I gave the keys to Johnny and since he was trashed, he forgot that he actually had them in his fucking pocket. Dumbass. Got up and went to the Omlettry, another kickass diner in Austin. Had some Gingerbread banana pancakes. Damn they were goooood. And then we left. Driving back we got stuck in about 4 areas of very shitty stop and go traffic. One of them featured a completely burned out tour bus. Just the metal frame, everything else was GONE. Rubberneckers suck. Well I';m finally home writing this. Gonna go BBQ at Timmy's. I think they're gonna tell everyone else that they are moving. See ya laters.
