Man I got so much stuffed inside me, so much to express, but it's all stuck. Been writing songs, and that helps, but...
I dunno, I wanna say a lot, but I can't now, and I'll figure out how to little by little let it out and write about shit.
I guess I'm just in a rut, stuck in some kind of depression. I've been in shock really, since Dec. 29th, when something happened, I've been in some kind of shock...
Anyways, I can't just go on like this, so much inside and can't talk or write about it... I will soon tho somehow, I think I need to, but I'm done for now.
Have a good nite, take it easy, and peace!!!

Was my birthday yesterday, started out crappy, but got just a little better and better as time went on. And as the day ends and I think back on it, and see who matters in my life. This is a time of crisis for me, and with all the people I've helped along the way, there are so few willing to help me in my time of need. Most importantly, my woman, even though it was so hard for her to do what she did for me today, she did and I am so grateful and am so in love with her. The other is an old friend of mine for as long as I have been in this town. He's been a good friend lately and he will be one of my lifelong friends I think.
I wonder why life is like this, as Bob Marley says, "you give your more to receive your less." So true...
This self centeredness people have, if things are ok for them, they're not worried about anyone else, makes me sick. The friend I was just talking about once told me, the nice guy gets the crap. He said that cause he sees me being the nice guy, and paying for it later because people turned, didn't care after their things became better...
Once real crazy thing happened to me today... I was in a parking lot of a bank, on the phone and wandering around looking into space and here comes a cop hassling me. He said the bank called in and was threatened by me. I'm sure this wouldn't have happened if I was a white guy. Just standing around talking on the phone... man... I hate this kinda crap. Racism embedded in peoples minds. Assumptions and stereotypes. I hate it.
Well I'm at the end of my day, 3:00 am and I gotta call my woman at 4 to wake her up for work. I know who is important to me, my woman and children, and my close friends, that one guy in this town and my buddies back home in Tokyo. My life depends on them and I would be so lost without them, especially my woman. I'm nothing without her. Most important in my life... I'll never take them for granted
So I was sitting on the bench across the street from the Bank of America in downtown Olympia, when I start to see the Mayday protesters coming down the street from Capitol Blvd. Thought cool, they are about solidarity and sanctuary city stuff, but then, I see a couple of the anarchists dressed in black throw rocks at the windows of the bank... just a crack n little hole at first, then they took out two of the windows... And here comes the cops, man were they pissed... They arrested those they wanted to right away but kept goin on, shooting pepper spray pellets and what not...
Was an interesting day... Earlier I was wondering if they were gonna block some streets or something like that like before, but it was a little more than that this year... Seems there is an ongoing tension between the cops and the radicals here...
Here's some of the pictures I took from my cell phone...
I thought I'd start a personal blog to share what's goin on in my life, along with pics and videos. I don't know if this will be interesting to all of you, but it will also serve as a personal log or journal type of thing I can look back to. So, here's my first post, and here's some pics...
Take it easy all...
