Currently imagining a shirtless John Cena solemnly announcing the death of Liberty Biberty the same way he did for Osama bin Laden during a live WWE broadcast and feeling a rush of pure adrenaline.

I always know when an idea really excites me when I start pacing around my apartment talking about it out loud to no one.

Nothing like clearly defining a boundary to someone and then spending the next two god damn hours repeatedly asking them to respect said boundary when they won’t. Fantastic way to spend an evening, maybe even the best.

Finally got my tickets for the new Rush tour and I can’t believe I get to see my all-time favorite band live again in one week’s time.

Nothing beats coffee and a book on a rainy day, man.
An open novel rests on a table next to a mostly full cup of iced coffee.

PAC vs Orange Cassidy at the first Revolution PPV was the match that truly sold me on AEW. RIP to The Bastard.

This was fucking amazing, by the way. It’s called No Man’s Disciple, and if you saw the Rush doc from a decade or so ago (BEYOND THE LIGHTED STAGE) it’s basically a sequel to that made by the same team.

It’s time to pour myself a nice glass of The Macallan and watch the full rip of the new Neil Peart documentary that some guy put on YouTube, baby.

All this debate over bringing an iced coffee to a job interview when the real power move is to reach for the interviewer’s iced coffee, take a big long sip, and then say, “what is this, shit-water?” To them, this shows strength and poise, two qualities highly respected in the workplace.

Google Maps changed the voice of the default GPS lady and, frankly, I don’t like her attitude.

I like how writing a book creates something smarter than I am. If I set a couple small stones in a sack each day, it won’t take long before I can no longer lift what I have collected. The small, intentional acts of our days gain a strength and life of their own. There’s a kind of magic in that.

Nobody is going to want to hear this, but a real risk we face, no matter who is president next, is that they will see no need to restore the rights lost or the executive power stolen in the last 10 years.

I’m reading a novel and drinking a margarita on my balcony patio in the late summer sun as I listen to the sounds of the city around me, and I feel like I’m truly living my best fucking life right now.

A western countryside setting with a screaming cowboy up in the clouds. It’s from “Big Enough” by Kirin J Callinan. The song sucks but halfway thru, you get to the screaming cowboy part and it’s exactly as ridiculous as it sounds.

At this point the Ed Sheeran tour is just gonna be him singing along to shoddy instrumental karaoke versions of his own songs.

Whenever I think of the story about Haruki Murakami becoming inspired to write his first novel after a hit at a baseball game, this is the sound I hear.

I’m not saying I’m a protagonist in a Haruki Murakami novel, but I am currently laying on my floor reading a Murakami novel while I drink whiskey and listen to jazz.

Just learned that one of my old Portland comedy pals, Nariko Ott, has passed away. Dude was incredibly funny and I’ll never forget his kindness when, after my first show in the city, he invited me to the bar where all the comics hung out after their sets and introduced me to literally everyone. RIP.

Been too long since seeing some local bands and this one did not disappoint. Saw Palehorse/Palerider for the fourth time and they’ve quickly become one of my favorite Denver acts, but Moon Destroys was the headliner and they were incredible. (They just put out a new album and it’s fantastic!)
