The DerfJam Chronicles

Testing the blogging app on my phone.

Like attracts like. The law of attraction.

I need to get back in the game plan. Stop being lazy and just do it. Imma get it....

Last Saturday I went to go see The Lion King over at the Civic Theater. I've never been to a musical so I didn't really know what to expect but I've heard alot of good things about this show.

I invited the only person I knew who would be totally into this. This girl loves theater because that's what she did throughout high school and college. And she comes from a family of performers. So I knew she would be the one to go with. But the thing I didn't know was how we would be in each others company.

We used to be closer at one point in our lives but somewhere down the line we grew apart. This was gonna be the first time we've been alone together in about a year. I really don't know what happened between us. I know she's really busy and she has a second job, as do I....so I think that's what kinda caused the canyon to grow between us.

But nonetheless, Saturday night went good and I think we're both at a point in our lives where we're turning a corner and that canyon between us is shrinking. We had good conversations that night and I even got to meet her Mom for the first time. She's usually very weary about bringing people over to her place, now that she moved back in with her Mom, and I dunno what caused her to lighten up but I'm glad she did.

It's a new day, a new month, and a new me. It's time to do what I gotta do to get where I wanna get. Game time, baby!


Oh yeah, the Lion King was an awesome show! Hahahaha. The costumes were dope, the set was dope, the singing and acting were all dope! After this show, I want to go see more musicals. And I know just the person who's down to go see them also. =)

Thanks for reading.

Usually Wednesdays are crazy by my house. It's swap meet day so there's usually all these cars trying to get in and they park in my neighborhood and what not. But this morning it was rather calm. That was odd.

The freeways were weird too. Traffic was twice as bad this morning. And after an hour wait, I found out why. This SUV had it's whole upper half ripped off. And the lower half was pinned under one of those big trucks. I think the jaws of life were used this morning cuz I've never seen so many police cars/fire trucks/ambulances in one area before. Whoever was driving that SUV is probably dead.


On a lighter note, me and my cousins will be hittin' up Callahan's in Mira Mesa tonight, if anyone wants to meet up.

And tomorrow, my favorite band is playing at Soma. Come by if you like Dredg. I was also a fan of RX Bandits, for those were into ska back in the day. They're opening up for Dredg. It should be a good show. I love going to see live music.

I think I may retire from blogging on July 14, 2009.

I just bought myself a brand spankin' new ukulele. I'm pretty stoked about it. I'm not that good yet but I know I'll be playin' almost every night.

Jammed out last night with the lady best friend. We wrote a song. It was called "Na na na nuh na". Hahahahahahaha. You had to be there to understand it. I love random, spontaneous, good times. And Hooters. Get the Cheesy Tots. Hahahahaha. They're MONEY!!!!!!!!!!!!

Disneyland this Saturday? Who's down?

The girl I was feelin' for the past couple months is no longer being felt. Hahahahaha. Back to square one.

House hunting sucks.

Need to start running again.

The drumset is starting to whisper my name once again.

It's so hard to eat when you have a mustache. I can feel all my food brush my the hairs over my mouth and it kinda tickles. It's a weird feeling. Plus it gets messy when I get food stuck on the hairs. Not fun. I was thinking that once my goatee gets to a certain length, I'm gonna stop shaving everywhere. I'm talking about facial terms. The nether regions need to stay clean cut. Hahahahahahaha.

I really wanna move up in ear gauges but I'm afraid that I'm gonna regret it when I'm older. Giant ass holes in my ears when I'm 60? I don't think so. Right now, I'm at a point where my ear holes can still shrink down to normal size.

I also wanna get my nipples pierced. My nips are extra sensitive and maybe this will enhance the sensation? I dunno though. I talked to a friend of mine who got his done and he said the same thing. But now his nips are forever hard and he lost the sensitivity in them. So that's making me think twice about getting them done.

There are a couple people I really want to drop kick. No names will be mentioned.

That house that me and my bro were gonna put an offer down for is now officially off the market. Not by us. Someone offered 30 G's more than the asking price. We wouldn't have offered that much.

But on a lighter note, I did attend the Air Sex World Championships last night. I was expecting people to have crazy routines but it seemed llike they just went up there and free-styled. Either that or they got super nervous and forgot what they were supposed to do, which is what one contestant said on the post performance interview. And this person probably had the best routine, IMO. I'm writing a review/blog on it, which will be up tonight...

So last night I wanted to go check out Transformers. I invited this cute girl from work. She was playing games with me. I asked her on Monday and she said maybe. I followed up the next day and still a maybe. And then yesterday at lunch, I just said "I'll pick you up at 8." And then she said "Oh, I have to go to Barnes & Nobles to study..." WTF?!?!?!?! I know she did it on purpose. If she knew she was gonna go somewhere or had something to do, why couldn't she have just told me no? Whatever. So I was scrambling to get a group together to go see it. It was supposed to me be, her, her roommate and my other buddy. So now it was just me and my buddy. A man date. Hahahahaha. I didn't really want that. So I started hittin' up friends in the area to see if they wanted to roll. Out of the 10 peeps I hit up, only 1 came along. So it was just us 3.

But guess what? Transformers was sold out! We bought 2 tix after work at 4pm for the 850 showing. But I didn't find out my lady friend was gonna roll until 6pm. I was down in Chula Vista looking at houses at the time so I couldn't go to Mira Mesa and buy another ticket. And by the time I got back up there....the 850 showing was sold out. So I bought the 950 showing with a plan in mind. We had two 850 tix and one 950. The plan was for 2 people to go in and grab some seats. One of those 2 comes back out to grab the person with the 950 ticket and bring them in using the same 850 tickets we had. But there was just waaaaaaay too many damn people for that plan to work. So we just got a refund and went to Islands to drink. Great idea. Hahahahahaha. Beer + Embarassing Stories = Good Times.

Oh yeah, back to the house. I think me and my bro are gonna put in an offer for this place. It's pretty nice. It needs a bit of fixing up to do but the price and area seems good. We'll see.....

Today after work.....me and my bro are gonna visit this house we've been eye f*cking. It's over off Telegraph Canyon Rd. It's got 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 2,137 sq ft, 2 car garage and a pool. I'm hoping we get this one. We'll see.....

My sleeping schedule is officially jacked. Last night I went to bed at 7pm and woke up around 3am. The night before I went to bed at 4am and woke up 645. The day before that I took a 6 hr nap in the middle of the day. All this cuz I went out Friday night and was chillin' in the cold night in someone's backyard til 2am. Yeah, that's when I started feeling sick.

This weekend I ran into the high school bully. He used to throw me into the lockers and just toss me around. I wasn't really afraid of him or anything. I just never fought back. I'm not a fighter. I'm the dude who will turn the other cheek. But yeah, I was at my homeboy's party and some guy comes up to like he knows me. I didn't even recognize him. And then when he mentioned his name, every memory of him came back to me. Hahahahahaha. But he's actually nice now. He apologized for all the crap he did. He told me his life story after high school and how he got into gangs and hard drugs and being locked up. Sometimes people need to experience the bad in order to see the good. He's now an Alaskan fisherman and making good money for himself. I'm glad to see he straightened himself out and is now taking care of his girl and her family.

There's this girl at work and she's kinda cute. She's not really my flavor but she's a girl so I'm on it like flies on shiite. I invited her out to the movies tomorrow night. I had to scheme in order for her to go. I recently found out some things about her and then I used that information to get her to go. This is info she doesn't know that I know. My accomplice has the inside scoop and he's feeding me the alley oop and all I gotta do is throw it down. So far the plan is working. We'll see how tomorrow goes.....

There's always a plan. Nothing ever happens by chance. I just make it look that way.

I just remembered that today marks my 3 yr anniversary for working here. That was a fast 3 years. I remember saying to myself that I would stay 6 months and this was just my stepping stone to get another job. Hahahahahaha. Some things grow on you. But seriously, it's the people here and the environment that makes me wanna stay. I'd rather have a shitty job but work with a bunch of cool people than have my dream job and work with a bunch of dinosaurs and uptight people. Real Talk.

Last night, me and my cousins played b-ball for the first time since the Playoffs started. Its only been 2 months and I was huffin' and puffin' and my back was aching. It's a good thing it's summer and we can play all the damn time now.

My 15 yr old cousin is gettin' pretty damn good now. He has a good shot and he's quick. The only thing he needs to work on is his defense and then he'll be on the Varsity team for his high school. Oh yeah, and he can't drive left. Hahahaha. My 19 yr old cousin is probably the worst athlete I've EVER seen in my life. Hahahahahaha. I love him and all so I'll call him out. I told he needs to work on his shot and I tried to show him. He has the stiffest wrist after shooting the ball. His ball has absolutely no rotation on it. He's also very slow. I'm around 250 lbs and he's probably 140 and I'm faster than him. That shouldnt be the case. He's also 3 or 4 inches taller than me and I can jump higher than him. Hahahahahahaha. My 24 yr old cousin is also a pretty bad athlete but he has heart. That makes up for his lack of athleticism. I see him trying and I know he wants it. Sometimes heart is better than skill.

Last weekend I ran into a friend from high school. We went to college together but my lasting impression on her was from high school. She used to be all goth. She was still pretty even though she wore dark clothes and dark lipstick and combat boots and all. And in college, she somehow transformed into a regular girl. And this weekend when I saw her, she was looking more beautiful than ever. I think I would have dated her even in her goth stage. She was that pretty where the goth look didn't affect her beauty. But yeah, I got her number and imma make sure to put it to some use.

I also ran into my favorite engineer this past Friday. I haven't seen her in a long ass while. It was soooooo good to randomly run into her. I know we were on a good one because I remember just holding onto her hips the WHOLE time we were talking. Hahahahahaha. Sorry about that. I'm only aware of this because some guy kept glancing at me and then I figured he was with her and I was getting too close for comfort but I didn't care. I wasn't trying to put on any moves.

But I did put some moves on some random drunk girl at the bar we were at. Hahahahaha. I remember she got all wild when she read my shirt. It said "Peck Peck: No Muff Too Tough" And then she said that I was gross for being a rug muncher and that you wouldn't any carpet on her. I said I didn't believe her and she'd have to prove it to me. "Show me! I don't believe you!" And then we went off to the corner of the bar. And on the way there, we ran into her friends so we forget what the hell was going on. I mentioned that we should take pictures and she grabbed my camera and handed it to the closest person to us. She faced me and puckered up for the picture. So I pressed my lips against hers and she didn't back off so I kept on going. I don't like kissing random girls cuz I don't know where their lips have been. What if 20 minutes before I kissed them, they were in the back room sucking some dude off? You wanna know why I think that? Cuz at my last job I got sucked off by some chick and then 20 minutes later I saw her with some other dude. And I was laughing my ass off cuz he was tasting my children. Muahahahahaha.

OMG! This morning I was driving to work and then I needed to take a mad dump. I wanted to drive faster but it was no use cuz there traffic. DAMN! The hair on my arms started to stand up and I clinched my cheeks super tight. Normally I don't mind the morning traffic but I couldn't stand it this morning. My left leg was shaking uncontrollably and I was starting to sweat. I tried to keep as still as possible but that didn't really help. The more relaxed I got, the more it would feel like it was gonna come out and explode. So on the whole drive, the entire 45 mins, I was pretty tense. Yeah, the WHOLE drive. I shoulda took a dump before I left but I was in a hurry since I woke up a little later than usual.

When I got to work, the spot where I normally park was taken. So I parked a little farther and the spots were tiny for my big ass truck. I just ended up taking 2 spots since I couldn't park it properly. And then I tried to run but that made the feeling worse so I power walked to my desk to clock in and headed straight for the bathroom. And on my way there, people were saying "What's up?" to me and I just said "Yo" and kept on walking. My teeth were grinding and my eyes were watery. And the closer I got to the bathroom, the harder it became to hold it in. I actually had to slow down walking when I was about 10 yards away from the bathroom door because it almost felt like it was gonna explode already. I had to regain my composure. I don't want to have to drive all the way home to get some new pants.

So I made it to the bathroom and unleashed the fury on that poor toilet. It was like the sounds of heaven with every splatter. The angels were singing and it was a glorious celebration. Since everything was concentrated to one area already, I finished my deed pretty quick. It probably took less than 2 minutes and I was already cleaning up. And as I got up to flush, I took a quick peek at my masterpiece and saw a magnificent mountain. There were no logs in this forest. Just one big mountain pile of doo doo. I almost shed a tear from seeing what nature had created before my eyes. I had a hand, or ass, in this doing and I didn't want to see it go away. I wanted to share my wonderful creation to the whole world.

Too bad the toilet I used was an automatic flusher and all my hopes and dreams went down the drain. Another day, another dollar, and another 8 hours to try to recreate a mountain worthy for the heavens to see....

...Mr. Cocky now sits in my cubicle. I hope that I can control my foot from accidentally kicking him in the face. I have an uncontrollable roundhouse.

The other day I was watching Bizarre Foods and homeboy was gonna eat a "Cabrito" burger. Some dude at work has been calling me "Cabrito" for the past year or so. He never told me what it meant. I knew it wasn't anything bad or he wouldn't be calling me that out loud at work. But as I was watching Bizarre Foods, they showed a "Cabrito". It's a goat. Hahahahaha. I had a long ass goatee and now I understand why he was calling me "Cabrito". So now that I found out, I started calling him "Chupacabra". That means goat sucker. Hahahahaha. This guy is always touching me so I joke around that he's playing for the other team and he wants to dome me up. Remember when that Senator was caught in the public bathroom tapping his foot under the stall to invite another dude in with him? Well, "Chupacabra" did the foot tap to me when I was using the urinal and he was in the stall next to me. It freaked me out until he started laughing. Hahahahahaha.

So last night at bowling league, I'm chillin' there mindin' my own business and grubbin' on some munchies before league starts and my teammate, the girl who's 18, says something to me. It caught me off guard. I'm not gonna mention what she said but it had to do with my job and what I do there. I TRY to keep business and pleasure separate so when someone outside of my job starts mentioning job stuff, it gets a little stalker like for me. Hahahahaha. It took me about 5 seconds to remember that her Aunt works with me. And I guess now they talk about me all the time. They share stories. Of me. FML.

So after league was done and I was taking off, the 18 yr old's Mom invited me to their place this Saturday. The 18 yr old invited me last week but I didn't think anything of it. Now that her Mom invited me, I'm thinking that I should go. Plus her Aunt will probably be there too and she'll want to talk work stuff with me. Hahahahaha. I guess you know where I'll be this Saturday.

I gotta get back on track with my diet. And my running. I've been lazy. Super lazy. Every day when I get home, I just wanna watch NBA Playoffs. Seriously though, this has been the best playoffs I've seen in a long while. I used to be all religious with basketball. Then I started getting religious with football. Now I'm starting to get back into basketball. After the NBA Finals, me and my cousins are gonna get back into playing basketball again. We used to play 3 nights a week. And my other cousin will be home for the summer so we can get more people in on the fun. I can't wait. I love summer!!!!

I tried stretching my ears to a 4g the other night and it hurt. So I went back down to a 6g. Not good. Patience. I need to learn to have patience. It usually takes a month or two to move to the next gauge but I've been doing it every 2-3 weeks. Hopefully my ears don't deform in the process.

I thought I'd get to relax for a bit when I heard I'd have a 3 day weekend. Is that what I got? Nope. 3 days off of work = 3 days of housework. I really can't wait to get my own place. You have no idea. I've never experienced freedom. People laugh in my face when I say I have to do "something". Something a 16 yr old would have to do, not a 26 yr old. I don't feel like a man, I feel like a child. A child with so much responsibilities. FML.

Project Hackintosh has FAILED. I thought I got it working but now it wont even boot up. I think my laptop is just so old it can't support it.

I finally got around to mailing stuff out. I still have a few more things to send and I'll get to it.

I've been contemplating on cutting my hair. Like, shaving it all off. Bald. But I have a feeling I'll regret it. I shaved my goatee a little over a month ago and now I'm growing it back because I feel naked without it. It's like if you leave your phone at home or if you forget to wear a watch. You just keep feeling for it and it's not there.

Eurotrip 2010. I've been planning this since I graduated from college. I've been waiting for my friends to finish school and/or get jobs so they have money to join me. I'm hoping that me buying a house doesn't interfere with this plan. This trip has been put off too many times. There's no way it'll get put off again.

I've been struggling to cope with my reality. The past 3-4 weeks have been zombie-like. It's like the lights are on but no one is home. I'm fighting to find answers. The scary part is that I think already I know the answers but I'm too afraid to execute. Sacrifices need to be made and I'm not sure I'm ready to give those things up. I guess I'm waiting 'til I have a Plan B and a Plan C, just in case.

I'm finding my salvation in music. It's the only thing keeping my head afloat right now. I have sheet music all over the place. On my desk at work. In my bag. On the floor of my room. On my laptop. On my work comp. I hardly even read sheet music. I can read it but I have no idea where the notes are on my guitar. I know where they are on a piano. So that's my Rosetta Stone.

I finally got OS X and XP to dual boot!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SUCCESS! It feels good to know that I can do it. Now, my laptop is super duper old so it doesn't have the capabilities to do what Leopard provides. It's a vanilla install right now. No internet, no photobooth, no nothing. I haven't gotten to play with it too much yet. I barely got it working at 2am this morning. There's still kinks I gotta iron out before I go out and buy a netbook.

I plan on buying one of those little netbooks. Those mini laptops. It's like 10 inches or so. And I'm gonna install OS X on it. I wanted to make sure I could install OS X on a PC before I went out and bought one. They're around $300 or so. They got webcams and all the fancy stuff needed to run Leopard. Now the processor is only 1.6 GHz and the max RAM is 2GB, but I think that will be enough. Still, a MacBook for $300!?!?! Now, the madness can begin. Muahahahaha.


I had a weird dream last night. I know I slept late and everything but my short sleep still produced a funny dream. In my dream I was playing the theme song to Growing Pains on my guitar. "Show me that smile again (show me that smile). Don't waste another minute on your cryin'. We're nowhere near the end (nowhere near). The best is ready to begin......." Hahahahahah. I woke up singing that song. It was awesome. I've never had a dream where I was actually singing.

Last night I spent a good 5 hours or so trying to figure out how to get OS X running on my laptop. I got an old ass laptop. A Dell 600m. I think I got it back in 2001. Hahahahaha. Well, after about 5 hours, I finally got OS X up and running. Just the basics though. I didn't figure out how to get wi-fi working yet. I installed OS X on a seperate partition on my ahrd drive cuz I wanted to leave XP there in case I want to use it. Well, after I got all wet and excited from OS X actually running, I decided to log onto XP so I can look up how to get wi-fi working. Well, much to my dismay...XP was no longer booting up. I must have changed something and not noticed and now I'm trying to figure out how to get XP back up. Catch 22. FML.

I started running the hill again. I stopped for a while and gained back 10 lbs. Eating loads of carnivorous treats + not running = fatty boy. Hahahaha. Now I gotta step it up. My lady best friend is comin' home in July and I gotta be all sexy when she comes home so we can pick up random strangers on the streets and have wild sex with them. J/k. I'm not like that. But it's fun to imagine things. What if life was like a whore house? Random chicks just come up to you and whisper in your ear "Can I play with your c0ck?" And I whisper back "Agato mami." Hahahahaha.

Speaking of whore houses.....my neighbor is tossin' this theme party tomorrow night. The theme is Rockstars, Jocks, and School Girls. It's bound to be insane over there. Last time he had a party, the cops showed up and I walked 3 houses over to get home. It was awesome. Hahahaha. Oh yeah, did I mention that they have a stripper pole in the living room? Whore house INDEED!!!!!!!!! I can't wait to get my own place....

So bowling league was last night and we're officially in sole possession of last place. The other week we were tied for 3rd place. Now, dead last. 8 of 8. When they asked me to join, I wasn't expecting to be on a good ass team. I just said yes because the girl who asked me to join was cute. And she's 18. Hahahahahaha. I am gonna be going to her place this weekend (or next) to drink up. Is that wrong? She invited me. And her parents know me, so it's no big deal. I also work with her Aunt. So it's like I'm already part of the family.

I was driving to work this morning and I don't know what I saw, probably her old car, but it reminded of this girl I was seeing before. And when I thought of her, I thought about the last time we got all hot & heavy with each other. And then all of a sudden, I got all turned on. While I was driving. I hate it when I get all excited while I'm driving. I sit pretty close to the steering wheel and then "it" begins to touch the steering wheel too. So I drove for a good 5 mins slumped down at an awkward angle so it wouldn't be pressed against the wheel. If you're riding with me and I'm driving all weird, now you know why.

I've been in the process of turning my laptop into a hackintosh. I'm too cheap to buy an actual Macbook. It's just hard to justify buying one when I already have a working computer. I probably should have left my laptop for dead instead of fixing it and then I woulda bought a Macbook. But something inside me kept telling me to fix this. It's fixable. And it was. Now, no Macbook for me. But yeah, so far no luck. Maybe my laptop is too old and can't handle all the requirements of OSX.
