today i was looking through my folders and i came upon this photo. doesn't that look tasty? this was taken at brian's sister's house. it was his grandma's birthday. some days i just crave me some mutton.

i got all my packages that i ordered from ebay. i got 3 packages a couple of weeks ago. all of the packages contained little smurf figurines. one package came as far as london. i don't know why i like to collect. it's sort of an addiction i guess. anyway, maybe someday when i get the energy, maybe i'll take pictures of some of the things i collect.

p.s thought i'd share what i'm listening to at the moment.

michael jackson - human nature
faith evans - i love you
john anderson - straight tequila night
ziggy marley - drive
dead milkmen - bitchin camero
brooks and dunn - my maria
bob marley - is this love
the pixies - where is my mind

it's funny. i felt like crap this morning. i had body aches and it felt like i had a slight head cold, but as soon as i come home, i'm miraculously cured! that sucks, i didn't want to use any of my paid time off.

well, this weekend i think we are heading to kayenta. i really don't feel like going. i want to relax and do absolutely nothing. the main reason we are going back is because we have to help his grandma with fire wood. winter is coming soon and someone needs to haul some wood for her.

the above picture was taken near dilcon, az. i hope you all have a good weekend......

this was taken on a sunday evening on our way back to phoenix. this picture was taken near dilcon, arizona.

this is randy and graygo. i caught them lounging on my brother's bed. the little one has big, blue eyes and the big one has an unusually large pink nose. they're so cute!

i can't believe i didn't freeze my ass off this year. i remember last year i was freezing to death while i was waiting in anticipation for the parade. a lot of people were selling a lot of neat stuff as they walked along the parade route. so many things to see, so much money to spend!

i got back into phoenix really late on sunday. i felt sick to my stomach. i ate too much roast corn. we bought 15 roast corn, 18 fresh corn, 4 weird looking star fish shaped squash, a water melon, and honey dew. i was looking for some big, fat squash. where did they all go? i think i missed out. i didn't see any in sight except the pewny italian squash.

on saturday i sat and watched the parade. it was hot and it seemed like there was a zillion brown people every where. it's kind of shocking to see. you don't see that much brown skin people in a crowd, except at the bar. just kidding! i forgot the name of those bars that the natives hang out at...dang it's been a long time....let me see...good time charlies, rodeo nites (did that name change again?), hmmmm......snaps? haha! i was once a frequent visitor of those places. i haven't been into any of them in a very, very long time though. anyway, it was nice though. after the parade we went to the rodeo. i thought i was gonna snag me one of them cars they were giving away. but i didn't. some lady from crownpoint had that special key. she won. that lucky bastard! i can't believe i actually stayed the whole 3 hours, my ass got torchered to death from the hard seating.

after the rodeo we left the fair. it was too dusty and i could feel the dirt caking up in my ears. i don't like dust. my eyes can't handle dirt. it irritates it and i had to get away from the fair grounds. after we left the rodeo we decided to make our way in to gallup, but before we could even get into gallup we saw that there was like a 2 mile back up of vehicles. at first we thought it was an accident, but after closer inspection we saw that it was a road block. they had the road block for both directions of traffic. people were turning around to avoid the road block. i was surprised that the cops weren't chasing them. anyway, as we got closer the road block you could smell beer. it was every where. it smelled like a bar! a lot of drunks were getting their vehicles towed. it was kind of sad to see. so many vehicles parked on the side of the road waiting for a tow truck. it was a sight to see. it probably took us 20 minutes of waiting before we could pass the road block and after that we were zooming to gallup.

i really enjoyed myself this weekend. i will hopefully be doing the same again next month!

somebody needs take ebay off of my computer, at least take access away from me. i've been going crazy bidding on stuff. i have two packages being delievered to me from london and new york i've been buying smurf figurines all weekend. that is how i spent my labor day weekend, sitting in front of the computer.

this weekend is labor day weekend. i don't have any thing planned this weekend. i'll probably catch up on some much needed sleep. brian and i were thinking about taking a drive to payson, but i'm not sure if i want to spend my weekend driving around. i feel like just vegetating in my living room.

nothing much has been happening in my neck of the woods. i just come home from work, eat dinner, watch tv, and then go to bed at night and start all over again the next day. it's like i've turned into an old fart in a little over a year. i think it started ever since i started working at my current job. i'm not motivated to do anything anymore. the only time i leave my apartment is on the weekends. that's when i hit the yard sales and flea markets. i've been doing this for a little over a year now and i found some wonderful things at a bargain of a price! i like to collect very old things. a lot of the stuff that i collect are old bottles, soda bottles and toys from back in the day. i don't know why i go crazy over stuff like this, but all i gotta say is that it makes me happy and it also gives me something to do. a month ago i bought a record player. i think it's the coolest thing next to my dolls of the world korean barbie. my record player is the best. i can listen to some old ass tunes in my raggy clothes, bushy hair, with not a care in the world. these days my search is for records. last weekend i bought michael jackson 'thriller' for only a buck. i got a few records in my collection, but i'm looking to add more to my collection.

anyway, next weekend we're going to the navajo nation fair. my main purpose is to hit the flea market and watch the annual parade. the carnies doesn't thrill me anymore, but when i was in school, i walked around the carnies like a bad ass, thinking i was soooooo cool, but i guess times change and we grow older, wiser and well i guess just boring! haha. i'm kidding, but yeah, it was cool back in the days, being with friends, eating curly fries, and riding the rides.
