Oh What Dark and Stormy Nights

What right have you to sail these sees?
No mortal man should be about,
on dark and stormy nights like these.

Whenever I venture out onto the rain drenched streets at night to run an errand, I like to image my task is one of great importance and my journey wrought with danger and peril. Even when my errand is simply to obtain ice cream for my ailing parents and the greatest struggle that comes with it involves deciding on a flavor, I still find a way to get my heart racing as if I were a cat burglar on a heist.




I will admit I love sitting on my couch, in the comfort of my own home, and listening to the soft pitter patter of rain droplets poking at my roof and windows. But there will always be a part of me that longs for a night filled with mayhem and adventure. So just when I begin to feel overly comfortable starring into the glowing soul of my fireplace, I unhinge myself from the couch and step into the storm.

Keeping Tabs on the Lads

I periodically will journey up to Berkeley to check up on two of my most beloved humans, Tyler Robinette and Lane Kerans. Do these young men seriously need me to watch over them like a momma bear with her cubs? Yes, oh hell yes they do.



Pizza rolls and Tyler Robinette go together like... well actually the two really do not belong anywhere near each other, because one just causes the other to fart profusely.



This is my friend Lane. The noises that he makes are nice to hear.



Tyler most likely had this coming to him.



I now introduce to you Lane's new boyfriend... err I mean roommate. His name is Derek and he works at Sportivo. He also is a diehard Tom Waits fan and puts up with both Lane and Tyler on a regular basis. I commend you brave sir.
