Aww.
There's so much love in my favourite blogs :)
We are having the complete opposite problem as you guys, weather-wise. Yesterday was absolutely redunkulous. Every 30 minutes the weather would change from torrents of really big, heavy rain, to bright, clear-blue skyed sunshine... we played right through it all, and it was like in the Wroclaw "Wet shred" video :)

Wait, this is your blog.
I got your bags today -- they are soooo nice!!
Thanks so much guys. I can't wait to play with them. I'm going to go take pictures and post in that bag collection thread.

I liked the little note from Holly and the little toy soldier from Brian :D

today was pretty fucked.

it rained all day. it was super humid, and i couldnt even yoyo outside without the string burning me. i tried to footbag, but in 3-4 mins, poured sweat. so no footbag. finished a pokebag, and should continue stitching hollys amaretta bag im 7 pents in on.


i worked for holly in the restrooms today, and that wasnt too bad. no messes, no assholes barging in, and no boss until 3 pm. (he came in late!!). then i worked in the dorms cleaning.
that was the fucked part.

these dooshbags had a powdered soap fight last semester. we cleaned it up. they havent cleaned anything since then. the whole room was covered in inch thick dust, and they left garbage everywhere. the tubs were nasty, toilets too. they left a tv and the cyber key. im busting their tv, and im taking their key (125$ to replace) cause they (parker bohab) are fuckheads. i really dont want to finish their room tomorrow. but i must.

i hope erik likes his bag. im always worried about pokebags, because if i make a flaw, its usually very noticeable. eriks isnt flawed tho.

and if you guys didnt already figure it out, ive started sending nashville footbag brigadiers (army men) to my footbag clients. i think theyre awesome, and i hope everyone else does too.

im so hungry. i havent eaten today again. i didnt eat the other day until like 8pm. its pretty much because im broke. payday is tomorrow. i think i want to go get some good food tomorrow.


ghengis grill?!? <----mongolian stirfry heaven


well. i suppose i could leave now. im still at work, since 11am.

holly sounds like shes doing ooookay. she was atleast happyish and awake. i love her.

bye fizz.

so no footbag for like a whole week.

been busy. stitched like 4 bags in a week. pretty good i guess.

had a mishap with the yoyofactory. they accidentally sent me an 888, so i get that yoyo, plus some other yoyo to be named at another date. cool eh?

i got some kind words of advice from cleaver. its pretty much what everyone else has said before. i guess i dont listen to what people say, and just do what i want.

ive been hitting cool yoyo tricks too. iv been trying cool stuff with red triangles, green triangles, and lots of suicides and some hooks (not too good with hooks). ive almost got a red triangle whip. got gt lace. iron whip and jade whip. man my yoyos rock. i like collecting. maybe someday i can trade them for a car or something i need. but for now, awesomeness.


i also picked up tetris two for the grey brick gameboy. then i lost it.
so i guess next paycheck im getting some ebay gameboy stuff.

i like how everything is right now. fun.

Hey lemme know when you start looking for Gameboy stuff (by big grey Gameboy, I assume you mean the original?) I have a Gameboy pocket, and it's like impossible to find games for it nowadays, except Ebay, and I've never used that before.

I only own Pokemon Red.

there are too many pregos. brian and i went to dinner tonight and there were 6 different pregnant women. at least 2 of them looked under 18. damn!!!!!!!!


brian and i celebrate a year on sunday. we kind of made up the date because we have no idea when it was and july 1st is just easy to remember. sushi, footbag, and ratatouille are the plan.

sunday evening we are having an nfb shred. josh is gonna be in town so we are stoked. ill have to take lots of pictures so i can put him on the member page of our site while i have the chance.


i was supposed to send a prize bag to the east coast tourney but i havent gotten to finish it yet. so looks like ill just be sending one to peter irish as a gift. hope he likes it! its a color pattern i learned from a mosher bag

so today was mine and hollys one year anniversary. it was pretty rad. saw a movie, rattouille. it was pretty good, and we got a discount on the way in (aquaintance from school).

then we shredded with josh, and eventually lee. lee was hitting some nice shiz, like superfly, pixie mobius, and lots of mullets.

holly had some good strings, and she even hit a nice drill tonight. long contacts.

josh is def getting better. he was hitting whirls both sides and all kinds of other shit. tripwalk. legbeater. props were deserved!

and i had a shitty game i guess. i need to wear contacts when i shred. my glasses kept sliding off today, and i even hand caught them midstring, and kept footbagging.

my best highlite was hitting sumo like 2nd try. and again a few tries later.

hollys off doing her thing. good vibes.

and i guess im here just stitching and watching lame tv.


so i guess i need to keep footbagging. maybe tomorrow.

cya.

im really proud of holly for scoring that hatch gig. its a sweet deal.

im still doing pretty well. im starting to get nervous about stupid shit. like worlds, and yoyo states. stitching enough for everyone :roll: .

our new boss is my old boss. i dont like him. he has high expectations of his employees...

but for footbag, i had a few pretty good sessions. i hit some trick lee just imagined. cant remember what it was, but i had never tried it, and got it in like 5 tries.

lee hit barraging gyro toe. it looks simply fantastic.

holly hit one handed moshers tail for lee, and had a lot of really nice links, and is showing nice improvement on control.

well. time for work.

brian
