This is where i tie in writing to all this...

Top Comics Series (Mostly on Image Comics)
















Hardcore Traveling on the horizon! 

This is the next big step, Southeast Asia


Introduction: 


     This is a my first blog posting ever. I have always hated the very idea of doing this, Blogs and Blogging, "hey dude! i'm blogging, did you read my blog?" The term, blogger would of sent me into a rage when i was in my twenties,as i would conjure up a image of some  douchebag on their Mac Book, wearing a trutle neck and sqinting into the screen with tiny framed glasses, plugging away about their self impoertance...now i'm writing my own blog.
   
     I don't even know who i am anymore. sometimes...But I realize that that's okay.
I moved out west, to Portland Oregon a few years  ago, where i learned alot of new ideas that seriously improved my out look on life, with the help of my boy, Alan Watts.

 (philosophical guru) 




     It took me a long time to get settled there.
In truth i hated it at first and i missed my home turf so badly, that for a time, i had despited anything that was quintessentially "Portland". But i settled in and i came to think of it as home after a while, but not really and in fact when i did travel back home to Philadelphia i became disillusioned with the place.




     When I arrived back in portland after an, none the less,  amaizng vacation to the East Coast, for the time, I felt like a nomad, like i could live anywhere, and it won't really, matter, as long as i had my girl and my cat, Loki and a truck load full of some quintessential things, like my keyboards and drum machines and if that stuff was shipped for free with the help of my frieind. 



     Ok, i know what you're probably saying, but its a far cry from living like pack rat with my pack rat family in my little bedroom in Lansdowne, too OCD to not my a hand drawn DVD cover for any single movie in my collection of movies i never watched.

     I've realized that life lets you become so much more when you abandon yourself and forget who or where you ought to be.  It's something that they don't tell you, that home can be everywhere, when you have your own skin to live in. 


     So in short, I'm learning more and more to let go of shit, including this idea of Home. 

Such is with getting older, i guess. Getting to a piont in your life where you can look back and see who you thought you were or where you thought you should be or what you thought you needed, and decide to start fresh. Letting go of the bullshit and hold to whats important. Thats's the trick, i discovered and learning to downsize enough for a TRAVEL SIZED LIFE...Thats my goal.
