my house!

check it out... this is where i live, and where you should come visit!


nice, eh?

oh and i bought a new-to-me suv the other day. i'll try to get pictures up soon. we have our first meet of the year this weekend, so i'll be busyyyy!

the space between

so i never really got around to a dave top 5 or top 10 list.

charlie and i decided that there was just too much good stuff to do a top 5... so we shelved it. but, today, we have come back to it.

dave doesn't need any build up or intro. he is just simply incredible. of course, getting his start in charlottesville gives him even more points in my book.

charlie actually gave me 15 songs, because he felt he couldn't possibly get it to 10. well... i cut off his last 5, so we now have a top 10!

most overplayed dave line with a lot of meaning to it? "the space between the tears we cry, is the laughter keeps us coming back for more" think about it.

charlie's top 10 dave songs (in no particular order)?

1. two step
2. lie in our graves
3. #41
4. dancing nancies
5. the stone
6. crush
7. pig
8. grey street
9. grace is gone
10. recently
    

and my top 10 dave songs (in no particular order)?

1. #41
2. lover lay down
3. christmas song
4. crush
5. grey street
6. cry freedom
7. dreamgirl
8. stolen away on 55th and 3rd
9. raven
10. grace is gone

and a few honorable mentions? song that jane likes, jimi thing, stay or leave

superstar!

so apparently they were filming one tree hill last night right outside the pool. all i know is that the parking lots were closed and there were people with headsets on running around everywhere. unbeknownst to me, this occurs all of the time. great i can't wait.

apparently there was some division 1-aa basketball championship game? i'm pretty sure that doesn't even exist, right? do they know that? maybe i'm wrong. anyway, i kept looking at the signs they had up (not knowing it was for the tv show) and i couldn't for the life of me figure out why i had never heard of the schools. well, they were fake. i'm a genius. but the signs looked so real i was quite confused.

speaking of one tree hill, yes, there was a chad michael murray sighting. my 12 and under girls thought it was quite possibly the coolest moment of their lives. the best line i heard? "oh my god, chad michael murray is the hottest guy on planet earth."

i told them they had just seen me from a distance and must have us confused.

happy anniversary!

it's the one-year anniversary of my talk like a pirate day post last year!

i think i'd like to make it an annual occurence.

check it out here.

and want an awesome keira knightley wallpaper? here.

this could be my favorite holiday...

arrrrrr!

happy talk like a pirate day!

hail.

that is all.

ballin'

fact: i bought the new kanye cd the other day. that's right. i'm freakin hard (h-town!).

no, but seriously, i like his beats.

there are a few rap lines that i have heard in my days that have just made me really, really laugh out loud. kanye has now topped the list. my two favorite... pre-kanye?

"i use crest, so ain't no cavities creep up in my grill"

"i'm seeing light up on yo face cause you peepin' my chain"

can you identify those?

but i'm sorry, when i heard kanye spit out this line, i literally started cracking up as i was driving down the road...

"heard they do anything for a klondike, well i'd do anything for a blonde dyke"

hiliarious. simply hilarious. good work, 'ye!

vote!

come on, vote people...

for cavman!

labor day weekend

phew. what a weekend. peter arrived on thursday night, and we didn't slow down until tuesday morning. we had another visitor arrive on friday, as well... who won't be named.

highlights from the weekend:

• beer pong night 1... 2 games of double overtime.... consisting of over 24 beers being pummeled in a short amount of time. and with cigars to cover up the smell of the horse farm that happened to be drifting over.
• shots. 7 of them. in an hour. so many they had to come on a tray.
  
• brian taking 4 shots in a row.
• paying $20 to hear it's a great day to be alive at the piano bar, and $5 for the sweater song!
• as a result of above, other visitor puking her guts out in the cab, and us distracting the cabbie by singing hail to the redskins very loudly
  
• lots and lots of bojangles sweet biscuits and krispy kremes
• beer pong night 2... not quite as many beers drank, but it's only the 2nd time i've ever played in a garage (cinco de mayo!!)
• the mechanical bull at the bar downtown. something magical happens when you get drunk, hot chicks and a mechanical bull in the same room. strapless shirts, anyone?
• the crazy cab driver who told us stories that i simply can't repeat here. jeeeeesus bleep bleep christ.
  
• boating. day 1 was pretty chill, just a little laid back action on the 32'.
• boating. day 2 was ridiculous. a raft-up with the 32', a 48', and a 50'... can you say lots of ridiculous hot chicks in bikinis? we even had a hooters calendar girl aboard. and one girl who peter and i could only describe as "delicious." and trust me, it's rare we agree on those sorts of things
• the look on my swimmer's faces when i showed them our next set which was actually the first set they did... doubled

yah, that sums it up. i'm tired. i actually slept 11 hours on monday night.

on a second note, ANDY is helping me sell my old beater acura. you should buy it. it's awesome. and it's for sale at his parent's gas station.
