rowdy STYLE

For those of you who've been tricked into coming here thinking it is some sort of "fashion" blog I'm sorry.

Rowdy style has nothing to do with finding the latest and greatest fashions. It has more to doing things in a rowdy way. My style.

But occasionally even I like to look good. Or even great.

So I replaced my lost tortoise shell Ray-Bans with a black pair.

I bought a dark green dress shirt, tie and black velvet vest from Express Men. To wear to the ballet tomorrow.

Finally I added a new 3 piece suit from Macy's. Charcoal gray. And a new green and gray tie to go with the colors for the wedding I'm going to in January.

Maybe I'll get to wear my awesome J Crew woolen pea coat over it all as well. I never get a chance to wear it here in SD that's for sure!

This blog ain't Lookbook. No pins for Pinterest. (Though I will probably post some pics of all said outfits if I can get better pictures than self shot cell phone ones)

All Killer, No Filler.

Rowdy style.

How come the housekeeper is afraid of my dead shark in a jar but really likes my new 1931 Dracula movie poster?

The shark is dead. Dracula is the undead. I don't get it, do you?

I am awkward and awesome.

Rowdy rowdy.

Magoo!!

SuperD likes to tease me, in a nice way, when I get hurt doing something 'rowdy' by calling me or what I did as "coocoo magoo".

I'm sure it is a amalgam or portmanteau of coo coo meaning crazy and Mr. Magoo, a semi blind cartoon character who is constantly a half step away from major disaster due to his bumbling.

My reply is normally in a horrible Hindi accent, "I am NO magoo! You are magoo!"

Well last night, I am totally a magoo. Sad face. =(

I was racing bmx and it was the final moto. I honestly had no chance to make the main but I was racing like a freaking gold medal in London was on the line. I do not remember the crash (just like I didn't remember the day when asked while laying on the track) but I'm told I was going tooooooo fast for the line I had, I was tooooo low in the berm and started drifting the bike.

Then my weight wasn't really where it needed to be over the bike in that situation at that speed. There I am cranking along thinking I'm going to make it at least a close race. Prove that I'm getting faster. A threat.

Next thing I know my vision is filled with sky, dirt, bike, sky and then dirt. Followed by exquisite pain. Sharp, searing, burning pain. From my tail bone, to the top of my hip bone, down to my groin and all through my hip/butt.

I'll spare you the lame story of laying there on the track, evaluation of my injury and such. But the end result is that I crashed sooo freaking hard, sooo fast that I can barely walk today............... I'm almost ready to try and get my crutches out......

Magoo.

I could be a....

part-time model.


Actually I went on a few dates with a model in college and she said I had potential as a male model. She wasn't trying to get with me, so I'll believe what she had to say.

A few times I have also had people ask me, "are you someone famous?" I hope they weren't thinking I was Seth Green. Or heaven forbid that freak Carrot Top. (please no!) And Fry from futurama isn't real.

Well a long time ago I was just wandering around San Diego when I was approached by a female photographer. She said she was doing a series on red heads and asked if I was willing to have my picture taken for her work.

Heck yeah!

She took a few pics and I gave her my information and asked for a copy of my picture to be sent to me. This was like 9 months ago I think.... Well I finally got my copy in the mail today.

And here it is!

Since I have surgery coming up and that entails a long recovery of low physical effort I have taken up fishing. Since you don't need a license if you are fishing from the pier, that is what I am doing.

Rod, reel, lures, bait, tackles box, bucket and so on. Just a little over $130 into a new hobby. Which is much better than the $700 I spent on a guitar I ended up abandoning. The fishing pole will pay for itself if I catch about 14 fish.

Here are some pics of a few days at the OB and Crystal pier in PB.

So far I haven't caught anything. Killer brought up a few crabs though, so I might end up getting a crab net. As long as they aren't Dungeness and over 4" in width you can keep 'em! And it's much less technique dependent than fishing.

Enough exposition, here are the pics!! (and yes, I have short hair now)
