BOY/GIRL REVOLUTIONARIES YOU AND ME

Just some musings, thoughts, sweet faces...

Does this mural remind you of anything?
Am I the only perv?

Oh, hey...look! It's my new BFF, Jacob Reed McDonald!
Look at those sweet little features!
What a handsome babe, right?!

My super co-worker A-Dawg is a Papa!
And he looks good doing it, right?

OMG...my other BFF, AJA!

Any chance I get to hang heavy...I take it!

She's a laugh and a half!

She totally took this picture.

Sometimes I see things like this...and I don't want to forget...how much I hate birds.
Just jokes, it's sad.

Even this tattooed baby thinks so.

Here I am eating an egg salad sandwich and showing off my first bruise from my new skateboard.

Basically, I got too big in my britches...felt too confident and did something I shouldn't have.
I got a couple of ugly scabs on my elbows too!

I'm being careful, I promise, but I'm fairly certain there's more where this came from!
Is it wrong how much I love this bruise. I'm in love with it.
I admire it far more often than I should probably admit.

That's part of the drill with skateboarding though - gotta take the rough with the smooch!

My boss. Sleeping on the floor of his office.
How awesome is that?
We ate a giant pizza and it must have put the hurt on him because he put his feet up and he was out like a light.

I feel like I've been a little MIA...and I guess I have.
Have been super sick for the past two weeks and am just now finding my bearings, getting into the swing of things, seeing things fresh.
But what about you out there?!
What are you doing?!

Tell me about it in the comments...tell me a story, tell me about an adventure, tell me about a meal you ate that made you want to hump it.
I'm into all of those things...I'm into you.

Live Fast, Die Young!

Have you been to Venue Bistro?

You should go...
It's on 32nd & Lowell and the menu is dynamite.

The cherry sorbet and persecco cocktails won't hurt your feelings at all...

Go with someone you like - I always choose Baby Spencer because we talk about the intricacies of Weeds, the power of the pamphlet stitch, and DIY culture while getting soused.

Christ, I need a mother effing hair cut!

Spencer had the corned beef hash.

And I hit the benedict HARD!

Best part...I got some close time with my new friend LeVar!
He's super handsome, brilliant beyond all reason, and he's got the kind of sassy attitude that I prefer to hang with!

LeVar is another bad ass Twitter friend...and with any luck, we'll be hanging heavy a lot more in the near future.

LEVAR! You're the sweetest! Thanks for brunch and being amazing!

Pirate graffiti?
Truck driver graffiti?
Hobo graffiti?

When Spencer and I drove up on this car load of girls...they were all totally car dancing their tails off!
I took a picture to remind all of you how fun that is! Riding with your windows down...listening to something poppy...and just letting your arms hang out the windows and laughing!

Our post-brunch destination was this place!
The Denver Shop at 2323 Evans!

Seriously, my lucky number TWICE!
This is a place for me, my friends!

See, Spencer has mentioned a couple of times that he wants to learn how to skateboard before he turns 40.
And clearly, I'm down with learning with him...ADVENTURE!

So, the proprietor, Tony, was more than happy to assist us with our purchases of brand spankin' new decks, trucks, and wheels.
I totally sound like I know what I'm talking about, right?!

Me? I got the Morrissey board.
It's gorgeous.

And what's great about The Denver Shop is that it's not pretentious and no one made us feel like asshole newbies.
Tony was receptive to all our questions, set us up with all the gear we needed, and even threw in discounted safety gear.
Thanks Tony - you're amazing!

Our wheels are clear and beautiful...
Spencer's trucks are silver!

They gripped taped us up!

Nervous happy!

Hello, Moz...I love you.

And what's even cooler about The Denver Shop...is that there are young dudes just hanging heavy there - and even they were giving us guidance and kind advice!
Thanks dudes...you're all super sweet!

White trucks!

I had to give my board a try...in store...

Where I wouldn't eat shit immediately!

I'm so god damn thrilled with this thing!

So, here's the deal...if you're a skater OR if you want to skate - go see Tony and the people at The Denver Shop/Brothers Boards!
Good people, local business, and downright bad ass service!

We hit Cheesman to do a little practicing...per Tony's suggestion.
He said it's good to just familiarize yourself with your board, find where your balance is, and get cozy with your new friend.

Safety is the name of the game with us...
We've got brittle bones!

Choker + hair chest = WIN!

Spencer took these little babies on his iPhone!

Thanks, Baby S! I look cute!

With a little practice, I started off pretty well.
I may be an amateur, but I'm ready to start roaming the city streets on this thing!

Spencer did fall, but I know my time is coming...

It's fun to try something new!
You only live once and you have to push the limits or you'll find yourself regretting that you never did.

As a matter of fact, I'm going outside right now to play with my board some more!
I'll be in the parking lot next to my building - PUSH, PUSH, RIDE!
