The coming of the end , just kidding

Hey y'all some say it is the beginning of the end of the world 2012 OMG we are all gonna die ! yikes , in that case I am doing what I do . Painting , coloring with pens , and spreading the word of the gospel . no not really . I am 30 going on 31 next month and I am totally and utterly unemployable . So why not venture out and try my hand at selling the one thing in this world that makes me happy , small children on the black market . no just kidding . my paintings , my weirdly beautiful abstract paintings . My family loves them , but they are obviously biased . but geez , I kinda feel like its my purpose in life . so there it is . anyone want to help buy top ramen for this starving artist . I promise I will be famous one day and you can sell it and make loads of stinky cash.I promise.trust me.

the big kahuna

today the sun was shinning in montana de oro like any other day.glistening , beautiful sunshine illuminating the humongous waves rolling in one after another.by god they were awe inspiring . i dont think i have ever seen waves quite that large before they must have been 25-30 feet tall.the barrells crashing and booming against the rocks was so dramatic like a old movie about heartache and mystery ,while children played on the shore oblivious to the monsters waiting off shore.there was a lone surfer out, a pro with two jet skis to pull him in to the waves face as he slips along effortlessly .hauling ass , carving back and forth making it look so fun and easy slipping up and over the wave to be picked up by one of the jet ski's .this ocean of ours is so enticing its no wonder i dream of it so much .
