Only Appropriate
So I've always been a fan of import cars (esp Toyota/Lexus) for the dependability and fine craftsmanship. Which leads me to the first post of the new year. In this clip .... well just watch it will leave you speechless.
It is only appropriate that the first post is a car related topic...

Tonite
As i spend tonight recalling what 2009 had and was to me, all the good and bad times and the few i have forgot. Here is a little recap of the year for me.
The year has been good with many things coming into my life that have been long deserved! A smoking hot girlfriend that is cool as hell. Trip to Toronto for my cousins wedding and the other summer trip to the same dest. The Mike tyson tattoo done by Steve Monie (www.tattoomoney.com) was bad ass. Trips to NY , and the Mishka flagship opening, being the first customer and meeting Greg was cool. The trip's to Kings Dominion with my daughter were great and all the other times i've had with her. Good times all around.
The bad... ahhhhh im not gonna put that out there, but one is my job. What a drag!
The New Year.... WoW there is soo much that i hope to change. Well stick around for updates n to all i wish a happy and fresh new year
oh and dont forget to watch the 2010 Fall Classic outdoor game at Fenway park!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Brief Interlude
The other week i had taken a brief interlude from everyday life to be at my cousins wedding. The wedding was at Casa Loma in Toronto Ontario, which is pretty fucking nice (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casa_Loma) too say the least.
But let me start the story from the beginning. After rain had settled after raining for two days my little brother and I had left early Friday morning the 13Th. Drive was boring but it always is. So Friday morning we got to the Canadian border only to be blasted by some tight ass and then told we were being cut a break..? For what. He ask about our pasts and if we had ever been in trouble with the law. ahhhh yup yup. So after a moment of reflection by border patrol he (again) tells us the " I'm gonna give you guys a break this time." For what dumb shit were both citizens so you aren't really doing shit and he lets us pass
.
Next was a brief trip to the burbs to spend the night and then to the wedding.
The next day we awoke and went about getting to the wedding. One didn't really take travel/traffic into account when driving though Canada's Largest city on a Saturday night! So after a unexpected detour to the venue we arrive as everyone is waiting in the hallway waiting to walk down the aisle. So we made it on time but barley. The ceremony was nice but its time for drinks. As bad as this sounds i was planning on getting completely smashed. I drank like it but didn't happen. kinda surprised but i guess it was good not to embarrass myself if front of family that i rarely see.
That was really the bulk of the trip really even though i had stayed a full week after the wedding.
I spent the first part of the week hanging out with my cousin and brother. One day we went around downtown bullshitting. Had to get a couple of hats stretched out at the new era store. Went to the Randsom shop on Richmond st and coped a new fitted. Did a little pro-line wager and won $10 !!!!! Nice.
Rest of the week i spent drinking and eating.
Much to my delight one of the last days there we drank at Mikes to wake up to this.......
Thank you Canada it was a Pleasure!!!!!!!!!!

"Need and struggle are what excite and inspire us"
Seeing this quote made me think about a lot of things but especially where my life is heading.
Lately i have been thinking more and more about what is passing me by, and may have already passed. These thoughts may be getting heavier more so as i look my 30Th birthday in the face (tomorrow). I'm a firm believer of "live by knife, die by the knife" so by no means am i crying wolf or looking for some sort of sympathy. The decisions I've made have been on my own and i am the one that will live with them.
I've always felt that i was doing what i do just for the pay, but it doesn't pay good! It may be interesting and there is nothing to be ashamed of in a hard days work but what is the final outcome/benefit (I've ruled out pay)? More and more these days I've seem to accept where i am in life as the past, present and future. But for the past week I've seen sign's that i don't i want to accept that.
My struggle has seemed to inspire me to try to move on. It has been on my mind for a while but now more than ever i want to act and pursue my hope's and dream's. I don't want to look back on my life one day and be " What if?" or " I should have".
I feel i owe it to myself to at least make an effort. Sure it wont be easy and I'm sure ill wanna give up like i have before but.... i gotta do this. My life was meant to be so much more than what it has been.
I want to enjoy my life, what i do for a living and where it takes me. Not be old and bitter with nothing to show for a life of being miserable. As for being scared of failure who wouldn't be. Hopefully this will be the start of something not just me blowing smoke up my own ASS!!!
