here’s to you

heartbeats by the knife


some say this song is about two girls experimenting. another version is about her own one night stand with an addict. when i first heard it my impression was parenting. from the recollection of my own lost innocence during the early days of fatherhood to the realization of my evolving wisdom and the deeper connection with those i share the experience with. (yep - i probably totally misinterpreted it {don't worry about it [i'm not]}).


have an awesome fathers day weekend!!!

not a teenager anymore

if i were to tell you i had a world famous double double today. you’d probably say, ‘in and out burger – yum.’ but... i said “world famous”... so now your thinking, ‘ooh an original tommy's world famous double chili burger.’ nope. not quite that either.

i’m talking an in and out double double with original tommy’s chili on top! to the best of my knowledge this culinary frankenburger was concocted way back in the wee morning hours by a group of high school kids too off to know any better and too on to care.

it hit me like a ton of bricks when the cute girl in the red hat smiled and said please pull forward. this heightened sense of purpose came over me. a clarity or even a deeper understand of the universe as a whole. this all succumbing realty as to what needed to happen next filled my very being. even the traffic along lincoln seemed to stand still.

so now an hour has passed. it is perfectly clear i am sweating (either from the peppers or i am in shock). i am overwhelmed by both the stench of grease rising up from the waste basket and the absurd number of napkins involved in my gluttony. my hands and possibly my face are chili stained.  it feels like there is a brick in my stomach.  i think others are aware of my gurgling.  i’m feeling pretty woozy. have to move very slowly now.

sicgusted.
