so it took about 100oz of beer last night, trading stories with my uncle and his life-long best friend, and 2 weeks to figure it out. im tired of being pissed off that my trip didnt go how i planned. it took me until now to just forget the plan and roll with what i have. sure theres a lot of shitty stuff, but i have to try harder to see the good. some good stuff: -i get to spend all day playing guitar and failing to write good songs -ive spent enough time in my head to figure out why im unhappy (which is the first step to fixing it) -ive found 3 bands who i like while out here -most of my genitalia is still intact -my car now has fully functional headlights -ive got friends to hang out with when i get home -i ride a bike to the beach like every other day -im hanging out in boston all day tomorrow -batman exists (in my heart) -ive got a long list of movies for to be watched this winter -freezedried food doesnt go bad -im pretty sure id fair pretty well if a zombie apocalypse were to occur -im watching spiderman and kirsten dunst is chained up and being sucked into some kind of mini-nova: totally hot point is: i love life and im going to try harder to enjoy it. | | 8:04 pm |

sob story of Charles McWeinerton
this is one of those ranting posts that is more for me than anything. so be warned. You may be asking "charlie, why are you posting on livejournal so often when you should be conquering mother nature?". well the truth is im sort of stuck in cape cod. with my headlights dead and my car in the shop it wont be done until wednesday. so that means im quite stationary until then. if i subtract driving time that will leave me with about 5 or 6 days to hike in new hampshire and the adarondacks. on top of that the repairs are costing me a lovely $500, pushing the total cost of this trip to more than $1,000. there goes a new guitar... at the moment i am sick from food poisoning. im staying with family which is sweet, but seeing as they have 3 kids and jobs i dont really get to hang out with them much (although me and my uncle watched superbad last night, which was awesome). its pretty lonely up here. pretty goddamn lonely. one of the main reasons i wanted to go on this trip was to clear my mind and look at my life from the outside rather than right straight in the shit of it. and so far thats been working, though its not what i had really planned. instead of it being inspirational to me its kind of got me depressed. ive learned that seeing things clearly and as the are isnt always good. sometimes things just suck. i dont like the setup, Jet. dont like it one bit. not much seems to be going my way lately. just feels like one of those times where the world seems determined to put you down. normally all i have to do is work my way through it and fight it off, but im just too worn out to do anything about it on my own anymore. whatever. it'll pass. FUCKKKKCFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCK FUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUCKFUKCU fuck it all. fuck my fucking life. FUUUCKKKKKK i dont want to fucking be here anymore. i dont want to be in cape cod, i dont want to be in new fucking england, i dont want to be home, i dont want to be FUCKFUCKFUFKFUCKFBJSDNKDCNL i miss all my friends but i dont want to face anyone i know. i dont fucking get it either. how the fuck did i miss that call i havent even fucking moved from this stupid fucking coucH!! this whole livejournal thing is fucking pathetic but i have nobody to fucking talk to so fuckit. i am stuck here and i feel like shit, i have to spend fivehundred fucking dollars to fix my piece of shit car, im lonely as fuck and i have no one to talk to, im tired and hungry all the time, its fucking cold, i spent all night throwing up, i can never say what i want to, i missed the call ive been waiting for since i woke up, my weed is in my car (and therefore at the mechanics), ive spent all this time figuring out what i need only to find that i cant have them. everything seems so fucking cramped and sharp. AND WHAT THE FUCK AM I DOING IN NEW ENGLAND?!?! maybe ill feel better tomorrow. but right now this shit sucks. i feel so goddamn weak right now. not everything is bad, but the shitty stuff is really getting to me right now. on the plus side: the ocean is pretty. i have accomplished my goal of seeing both the Atlantic and the Pacific this year.

going through some old pictures. its weird but i can hardly recognize myself in some of them. i cant believe you guys let me keep my hair that long... i thought we were friends. oh well. im sure in a few years ill look back on pictures of myself now and say something like 'i cant believe i didnt shave those' or 'how did i let my dick get so long?'. tis life. tits life. tits4life. anyways... i picked out a few of my favorites and ive decided to post the ones that are legal on this here website. ( Here we go ) | | 10:29 am |
Finally got internet access
Well here i am. running form the cold up in new england. for all of you who thought i was in south carolina you are fools and i hate you. actually it was a last minute change because there is some kind of fuel shortage in the south east and people are lining up at gas stations for hours and getting into fist fights. i found a picture of what its like down there: http://i30.photobucket.com/albums/c306/GorillaWar/southcarolina.jpgi figured i would just save myself the trouble and head north instead. right now im in cape cod. the plan is to ride up the coast of new hampshire, come down south back to the adirondacks and then call it quits. right now im staying with my uncle and his family. they have a sweet house and live like a mile away from the ocean and theres a mountain biking trail that goes straight to it. im getting some work done on my car whilst im here (headlights died again). i had almost forgotten how lonely the road can be. not that its like a cripplingly sad place or something, it just has a sort of repetitive emptiness to it sometimes. but being here with family is sweet. miss all you guys. | | Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008 | | 11:30 pm |

Looking through some of my old drawings instead of sleeping. found a few that i like but completely forgot that i made them in the first place. -This is one of my favorite pieces ive ever done. not sure why, as its not all that great. the title was originally "Tits on Patrol" but was later changed to "Space Machine". its based off of an older and mush shittier drawing of mine. i made this several years ago during a period of complete solitude.

-this guys an old favorite. originally entitled "Show me Dem Titties" i was forced to change to "Whistle While you Work" because of copyright issues.

-This ones called "Titn' Around". if you look close you can see a small turtle in the spotlight.

-Titled "Tits for Dinner" is one of my first MS Paint drawings ever. he was apart of a collection of odd characters that i made at 12 years old.

photobucket really fucked up the quality. hopefully ill get some new stuff up soon! | | Friday, August 15th, 2008 | | 1:24 am |

well here i am; alone and drunk on my roof again. boring. Current Music: some kind of classical electronic crap | | Tuesday, May 27th, 2008 | | 3:16 am |
drunk off of a potent mixture of schlitz, steel reserve, jack daniels, and and ancient bottle of genuine absinthe. a good day to be a drinker. sleep would be a great waste of this high but there is little else to accomplish.

just like home...
Its been raining for the past 4 days straight now. Id rather not go camping in the rain, but Im so sick of being stuck inside (especially in the fucking mountains of colorado) im on the verge of going out into the backcountry anyway. cool superhero story idea: superman gets hooked on meth... and hilarity ensues! and to quote an episode of Justice League im currently watching: "keep her busy so i can take her from behind". on top of that the episode is about all the female superheros in a cage fight. its times like this that TV proves its worth. |
