I just received this email at 3:25am on December 31th. What/who the fuck...


Hey Devin!

“I am going to smack your face off of your face!”
--Charlie from It’s Always…

I just saw the last episode dude and you were right, it was so perfectly-retarded!
This whole season was good: I liked the Liberty Bell episode too. Now I needs to spend the rest of the week catchin’ up on my Nip/Tuck’s.

But it was cool meeting you at Eugenio’s party and it was even cooler when your sis’ told me you was lovin’ It’s Always. You might like Strangers With Candy too cuz they have a crazy-ass sense of humor just like the fools on Sunny.

Anyway, I’m still doing the arcade thing and I still want you there if you are free. This place called Funfuzion in New Roc City got this unlimited deal on Weds & Thurs. from 4:30-0:30pm. http://www.funfuziononline.com/funhouse/default.asp

It includes Laser tag, go karts, mini golf, bowling, all that good crap. I went last month and had mad fun my fam’ (the headaches they are) so I know I’d have even more fun with fools I actually like. Ha!

OK: I’m thinkin’ Jan. 9th is a good day to go, hopefully that will give people time to get it together/sync they schedules.

Let me know if you are down, otherwise have the bomb New Years!

These Arms Are Snakes



"Tail Swallower and Dove"

Books

I finished reading "Lush Life" by Richard Price and I absolutely loved it. One of the best books I have read in awhile.

I was then recommended "Shakespeare's Kitchen" by Lore Segal. I couldn't get through it. Just not my cup of tea. Yet if you are interested in reading about it, here's the review from the New York Times:

Now, does anybody want to pay my late fee at the library?

Christmas Poems

I wrote this poem when I was in second grade, and my mom recently just found a copy of it and brought it for me for Christmas this year.

WAITING FOR CHRISTMAS TO COME
by Devin Castellano (circa 1991)

There is a cold breeze,
and the ground's bout' to freeze,
but I'm inside by the tree.

Sitting by the fire,
I'm down to the wire,
Waiting for Christmas to come.

The tree is all bright
with a red sparkling light,
Waiting for Christmas to come.

I drink my egg nog
right by my old dog,
Waiting for Christmas to come.

The day has finally come,
I shout out with joy,
for I found out I got
a new toy.

5:28am

I'm awake, but hitting that wall of tiredness. I have been reading "Lush Life" by Richard Price, and this book has completely captivated me. It's a crime drama that hasn't so much focused on the actual crime, but on all the characters involved, ranging from the cops investigating it to the victim's family and also to the possible suspects. This all takes place on the Lower East Side, the area of New York City that I have enjoyed the most since I moved up here. Anyways...back to finishing he book.

Devinc7 (2:52:54 AM): remember when joey and i used to prank call your mom
Devinc7 (2:53:12 AM): hahaha, i dont know why im laughing so hard at us being in high school
govtiswatching (2:53:27 AM): yeah see none of that was actually funny
govtiswatching (2:53:46 AM): it was harmless, sure
govtiswatching (2:53:51 AM): but it wasn't exactly funny
Devinc7 (2:54:47 AM): no dude. it was pretty funny. its not like we said anything offensive or harmful. we laughed cause she answered the phone "el-low"
Devinc7 (2:55:09 AM): which is funny cause joey's dad answered the phone "yell-ow"
govtiswatching (2:55:48 AM): she answers 'el-low'?
govtiswatching (2:55:57 AM): i guess i've never noticed
Devinc7 (2:55:58 AM): yes!!!

"Girl, are you vibing me?"

I was at work earlier, and a daughter and her mom came up to my register to check out. The daughter looked like she was around 20-21, maybe back from college for Christmas. Anyways, I noticed her really checking me out. Her eyes were all of me, looking at my tattoos and whatnot. So I asked, "girl, are you vibing me?" This got a laugh out of her, but an angry look from her mom.

Hopefully the girl comes back without her mom.

OH SHIT!!!!

A Double Shot of Love

A Double Shot of Love, a new show based on the Tila Tequila show, is on right now. I'm going to run my own live blog thing talking about how I would make the show better. Here we go.

The guys and girls get to the house by having helicopters drop them off, but they are all inside a big box that is being held by the helicopter by suspension cables. What I would do here to make the show better: Drop the boxes when the helicopter is still up in the air, letting the contestants all fall to their deaths.

Some girl says that the last time she was in a furry pink box was 2 weeks ago. I wouldn't change a thing about that.

Ok, 5 minutes into the show, I have already vomited twice. I'm turning this off.

In conclusion, if I was the creator of this show, I would kill everyone involved in it, and I would also probably kill myself. The only person that I would let live is this dude, as long as he only does this at all times:

I Hate Saturday Night Live

I also hate most of the Digital Shorts, but this is funny. I know it's old, but I love internet videos.

Oh shit....

I saw this on Soccer By Ives and had to re-post it up here. This kid gets so fucked:



It sucks if I was that kid that gets nailed in the face, but it also sucks to be the kid that does the flip throw, as that is the dumbest shit among youth soccer.
