space and blood

before I start this blog, look at this.  Space is cool.

Ive been on this art/science/space kick recently.  And I'm really not mad about it.  My internet browsing over the past couple of weeks ultimately culminated in finding this last night.  After minutes of frantic internet searching, I have determined that I will not be able to find one for myself, and my dreams have been crushed.  That deck literally encompasses everything I want in art.  Skateboarding and a beard.  I would put that thing on my wall so fast my wall would be overwhelmed by the impulse and there would be a skateboard shaped hole in the wall.  It's science people.  But really I am going to need to work a whole lot more to be able to afford all the crap that I'm gonna end up buying.  Brit I know I've sent you some cool stuff over the past week or so, but get ready for a pretty cool present.  At least I'm pretty sure you'll like it.  Next topic

I did something momentous today.  I drew blood for the first time.  That was pretty awesome.  And I didn't even pass out.  I don't know about you guys, but one time I blacked out a little bit from seeing my own blood.  The weird part is that cognitively it didn't bother me, my brain was just like "yup I think we should not see anymore."  I was carving a pumpkin in college and I cut into my thumb and I started bleeding.  So i walked over to the sink and was rinsing off my thumb so that I didn't die, and then like a minute after I started bleeding (not that much blood, I should mention), I was walking away from the sink to get a paper towel to apply pressure and then I half blacked out and fell into the wall.  Like that kid but  I blacked out first.  Kinda funny.  But the point of that story is that I am a really good pumpkin carver.  Right?  Seriously that's the best pumpkin I've ever carved.  Also I have big veins.  You know what that means right? Good circulation maybe?  I don't know.  I should probably know that.

Back to the initial topic.  SPACE.  When did space stop being the most interesting topic of all time?  When I was a kid space was so cool, and then I literally didn't think about it for like 15 years until like 2 months ago.  Have you all seen that scale of the universe thing?  If not, take a look.  Guess how big stars are.  Real real big.  And apparently we can't even possibly see the whole universe.  We should all have to take a space class in school.  Where there's no homework or anything like that, you just get to go and learn cool stuff about the universe.  You would just watch like my boy Neil deGrasse Tyson on youtube for like 2 weeks and that would be the whole curriculum.  And you would spend a whole class on that scale of the universe site.  And you would watch that Alec Baldwin universe movie where they talk about those giant fire circles on stars that Evel Kinevel used to fly satellites through or something.  Also, it appears that the sun supports our troops or maybe knows someone who has leukemia.  Good job bringing awareness sun.  I also appreciate the light and warmth and stuff.  Really though.  Learn about space.  It's really cool.

Alright well the celtics are starting now so I'm going to go to the gym now.  I think I need a new way to end the blog.  I'm tired of writing haikus.  I'll write one more though.  Here's your haiku
