Rest In Peace My Homie
This morning, I found out that my friend Ezra, from Humboldt had been murdered. I am so saddened by this news. I first met Ezra when I was about 20. We were both so young and badass then. I remember skating with him at the old half pipe on Gintoli Road. We used to skate there all the time. Ezra was a good friend that was there for me in my times of need. He was a firecracker and that is why we were friends. Ezra you will be missed. Rest in peace homie.

When You Have Time For the Beach House
I really really really love this Baltimore based duo. RAD!! They are the essence of where 60's psychedelic sound left off. A mix of the Mama Cass meets Roy Orbison. Check out their new creepy video. I totally love it!
Pain Killers: Good Times For Bad Times
Today we are going to discuss pain killers. I got the below from a UK cancer site. Very interesting.
Opioids
Opioids (pronounced oh-pee-oyds) were first made from the juice of the opium poppy. But many are now manmade in a laboratory. There are different types of opioid painkillers – strong ones and weak ones.
Strong opioids include
Morphine
Diamorphine
Fentanyl and Alfentanyl
Buprenorphine
Oxycodone
Hydromorphone
Methadone
These are the strongest painkillers and are commonly used to treat cancer pain. You can only get them on prescription from your doctor. Used properly, strong opioid drugs do not have many side effects.
Weak opioids include
Codeine
Tramadol
Some types of weak opioids are available over the counter.
So I have never really heard of most of these, but wonder if they will take my cramps away?

"He's Just Not That Into You"
Wow, I can't believe it took a movie for me to figure that one out!!!!!
"I Feel Like I'm Disappearing..."
Dreaming, dreaming of a girl like me
Hey what are you waiting for - feeding, feeding me
I feel like I'm disappearing - getting smaller every day
But I look in the mirror - I'm bigger in every way She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I'm in heaven now - I can see you Richard
Goodbye Hollywood, goodbye downey - hello Janis
Hello Dennis, Elvis - and all my brand new friends
I'm so glad you're all here with me, until the very end
Dreaming, dreaming of how it's supposed to be
But now this tunic's spinning - around my arms and knees
I feel like I'm disappearing - getting smaller every day
But when I open my mouth to sing - I'm bigger in every way
She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
Hey mom! look I'm up here - I finally made it
I'm playing the drums again too
Don't be sad - the band doesn't sound half bad
And I remember mom, what you said
You said honey - you look so under-fed
[background voices singing various covers]
Another green salad, another ice tea
There's a tunic in the closet waiting just for me
I feel like I'm disappearing - getting smaller every day
But I look in your eyes - and I'm bigger in every way
She said:
You aren't never going anywhere
You aren't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
I ain't never going anywhere
Goodbye Richard - gotta go now
I'm finally on my own - but Dan's got a gig
Keep the love lights glowing - little girl's got the blues
I can still hear momma say: "honey don't let it go to your head"

Lessons in Swimming
Love. What do you think of it? Go to Garrison Keillor's, "Lessons In Swimming" podcast and learn how to feel again.
Dear Indie Diary,
In the past few years I have been noticing a slue of fabulous psychodleic indie rock bands. (Pardon me but I have no idea how to classify anything due to my stay on the farm.) They all are pretty amazing artists who are representing the true underground spirit and soul of our country.
So, all I want to do is listen to their music and go to their shows. There is a problem though. They aren't playing. Not even anytime soon.
Solution?
You might already know what I am thinking.

WHALEBONES
Psychedelia whines and tins crash as this five piece drowns themselves under the streets of Seattle. This was the only live video I could find. To hear more of the Whalebones go here.
Lil Wayne: My New Man Is Smokin'
So for ages now I have been seeking my soul mate. Looks like now I have found him.
I really have no idea who Lil Wayne is. All I know is that when I see his picture, all I can think is 'we were meant for eachother'. I mean a tattooed face, dreadlocks and badass attitude to follow, how could I resist?

Dude are you serious? What is wrong with you?I don't even know where to begin.....First of all, you have come to Humboldt many times since you moved away, and I always understood when you didn't make time for me, or even call.Second, I am engaged and trying to plan a wedding which until two days ago was going to be in 7 months. Dates are not working out, money is tight, etc. I am stressed out, 20 lbs. overweight, and barley together. In between long, stressfull trips to the bay to plan, I come home and play catch up with my work. I am sorry that I wasn't able to drop everything to hang out with you, but I wasn't able- it wasn't that I don't like you. Third, maybe if you showed ANY sign of friendship towards my fiance (like acknowledging that she lives here when you leave a message on OUR answering machine) it would make my life allot easier. How would you feel if after you came to Humboldt and didn't even bother to call me, I accused you of hating me? Would you like that?CR

I feel like a total loser now. I can admit it. I totally F-ed up this time. I am so so sorry.
