NFL = National Football Lazyness

An update before I begin; Mom's is doing much better; turned out to be depression and stress, but the Doc said she will be fine and its turned out to be this way, gracias a Dios.

Today was a day of nothing but football, yup; I don't think I've had to use the C.W today, which is awesome, football all day! As much as I've wanted this to happen every Sunday, it just hasn't happened, and it might be a good thing. I watched a total of 3 games today, 2 from the AM and one from the PM, and we still have one more to go (Saints v Seattle), but I'm not really in to it; decided to update this thing. I started writing and then forgot my train of thought! Writers block? Hardly ‘cuz I got it back. I’ve been listening to Incubus’ “Make Yourself” album, and I’ve probably heard this album a million times, but this time around the lyrics have a lot more meaning. I think this is the reason why I really like the band, their musical sound is awesome, but the lyrics have such deep meaning that drew me to them slightly, now as a 30 year old they mean more. I’m sure it’s easy for you to understand, but if you don’t I can give you another example, remember your palate during your teens, how it was all about beer and soda, and then as you grew older different food and taste became tasty and beautiful, like poetry? Well if this last one doesn’t help because your palate hasn’t matured, well te chingas! Now getting back to the album; the lyrics can elevate your brains thinking far away, and the melodic sounds of the guitar and base, especially the base, they caress your stimulate your eardrums in a special way that it creates an out of body experience. I’m sure that what I am describing is nothing new just to me, but to feel it again is really amazing. Talking about music has now made me think about how music has played a huge role in my life, since my upbringing, my sisters blasting the radio as they cleaned, made me dance, etc. This is how my brain works, music = memories, and for that I am so grateful because I have lived through some great times, even fucked up times, all of them are triggered with music. My Life is a Soundtrack, I seriously think so, every single person I encounter in my life whether good or bad, you’ve created a new crease in my brain and I shall forever remember you, even hate or love you just a bit.

I’m glad I finally got that out of my brain because I have been trying to write about this for over two weeks now, it was bugging me. I’m unsure about what to write next… well how about TTV=Trough The Viewfinder; I’ve had my Kodak Duaflex for some time now and I’ve yet to get out and shoot with it, but I’ve been thinking about doing it every day during the week since I got it, but when the weekend comes ni madres! Oh well maybe next weekend, man is this my favorite line, I feel like I don’t have time on my hands when the weekends come around, but a day like today I rotted in front of the TV for a weekend of football and not picture taking, te digo, pero que le vamos a hacer?

Look below for a TTV style picture, and click here to see more TTV pictures.

I know you all missed me, especially with all the comments you’ve left on my blog asking me to come back and write soon; I thank you all!

Hope to make this at least a two times a week thing, since the daily goal I put on myself I have not been able to keep.

Ciacito Baby!
