Whale Sharks And Fairy Terns: Opposites Attract

I just got home from a talk and slide show given by Susan Scott.  She is one of the bird counters and has been all up inside the Sea of Cortez.  She's seen hella.  Her best photos were of Whale Sharks, which are the biggest fish in the world.  Apparently there are a shit ton of them at the northern end of the S.O.C.  You can just go out and swim with them like you're some kind of King of the Sea Nature God.  Anyway, now I hella want to go there and get my Whale Shark on.

Lazy All Day

I pretty much spent the entire day in bed.  Messing around on the computer.  So fun and fulfilling!  After a while, I got out of bed and went over to Tum, A1, and A2's house.  We drank whiskey, blazed grits, and played guitar until dinner.  It was fun.  Obviously.  Now I'm wondering what to do with the rest of the night.  I tried to get a poker game together but it fell through.  Sometimes people are cowards...




I don't know if y'all can really understand what a million albatross looks/sounds like, but try looking at this and multiplying by one billion jazillion.

I Wear My Sunglasses At Night

Hella hella rage.  Midway New Year is awesome.  Did you know that we are the last people in the whole world to bring in the new year?  We rule.  So, the night started of with about four or five games of Bingo. I promptly lost all five.  Then the band rocked out for several hours after that.  I drank gin, tequila, beer, and champagne.  I danced and sang and played hecka guitar.  I played pool, ping-pong, pinball, shuffleboard, and foosball.  So many activities.  I also took a portrait of every person at the party while they wore my sunglasses.  It's a pretty good album.  Watch for it on FB.




Three loser Bingo cards.

Hella winner rage machines.  That's me in the middle with my arms up.
