southern breathes

she said, 'my soul needs this.'
this is true. i need to remove myself from this land, this location.
in one day i'll be in atlanta - sweet tea and southern hospitality.

it's all about speed. everything moves so fast.
this moment, i need it to slow down.
to enjoy. to relax. to heal.
to breathe.

lie

oh, boy you laid
laid with me in the summer breeze
with pineapple trees
and bumble bee stings
we made it through the green seas

i could see you floating away
and away you went
into the waves
tipped me right side up

oh, boy you lied
lied and said it would be an endless line
finish line in a grizzly bear cave
and all the broken eggs
you never took your shoes off

now they fall
out of trees
the owls don't even need them
they all just lie
too quiet to make a sound

pick a glass, preferably a short round one.
add two ice cubes.
and pour, as needed.
cheers.

fancy a nap

Dan says, 'sleep when you're dead.'

Well, I say I am close to it by the way my engine sounds. I have had a whirlwind of events for the past month that have been undocumented. Let me just say California was grand. Tori was rockin'. And the beach was breathtaking.

Since vacation I have been working every day. I need to slow it up so I can start practicing for the Omaha half-marathon. I know it's only 13 miles, but come on - me running 13 miles is a joke, a sad one at that.

Something random: banzai trees are not as magical as one would think - don't bother with them, even if Mr. Miyagi says so. They draw fruit flies and will creat a madness of mold! The raccoons will have a hay day with that, I'm sure.

We celebrated my mother's 60th birthday the other week. There was a great turnout and she had a good time - that's all that matters. Oh, and wedding cake from Farm House doesn't hurt either.

All I need now, is a cocktail and a nap.

I'm one of the sheep. Follow me: jkferrin.

we're all mad here

This looks amazing. My favorite cartoon comes to life in a trippy, hallucinogenic ride.

heading west

I'm in the Phoenix airport, drinking some Stella. My body is needing the sand, the ocean, warm sun. It's pulling me in.

King Taco is also pulling me in.

hit me baby

Tori did an out of the ordinary cover the other night. Enjoy.
