DON'T EVEN THINK OF EVER LETTING ANYONE SELL YOU SOMETHING UNTIL YOU'VE BOUGHT YOURSELF FIRST.
You own you, even if you're working right now... you're earning the right to do whatever you want when you get done. When you have nothing to do, it's up to you to use your ideas and turn them into reality. Whatever you do, even if it's cleaning up where you live, making food for someone you love, writing down whatever...

It's Sunday night... what a long weekend... I did a weeks worth of work and meetings in the last 3 days. I'm sitting here listening to this JENIFEREVER song GREEN MEADOW ISLAND, looking through pictures...
Sometimes weeks go by and when I get a night, like tonight, I sit and look through this little camera and remember all of the people that bless my life... the quick encounters, the people that...

There are people who say a bunch of stuff, that somehow communicates something entirely different to me than what they are saying... do you know what I mean? You know how you talk to someone and they're laughing and joking and going on and on and then in return you might join in and somewhere in all the words and gestures and interrupting you can sometimes catch yourself feeling comfortable... I usually find conversations...

Sometimes the most beautiful things are just as plain as can be... there isn't much left to say. That's kindof it.
I've been looking at these images on my desktop and all I can think about is how simple images can communicate something different to each of us.
This image was originally a photograph taken by HEDI SLIMANE... I check out the updates on his site weekly. He's always taking photos......

I don't know if this goes on in other towns... I know I've experienced my fair share of it in New York & LA and wait... can I please start by saying I'm not logging any complaint here.... FRIENDS, we are friends if you are reading this it's because I'm sharing a thought with you and you'll most likely share some with me, so friends can we agree that this is one person, one individual...

I've always been a thrift store kid... can't pass one without stopping... I've spent days on end in 'em...
[ORIGINAL]
When you're on the road, visiting a new place, traveling "All Carry On's" style, stopping in a thrift spot is a rad way to find a completely original souvenir and a future memory... It's also a way to put a couple dollars back into the local economy, in a pretty direct fashion. Sometimes I pick up...

Today my best buddy Robbie's "Roommate" is 3 years old... Since my little fella Hiro moved away, Brody has been there for me whenever I need him, keeping me company, jumping on the couch, all up in my face. It seems like just yesterday we were at the park and you were actin' a fool, getting kicked out for messin' with some Boston Terriers. Now you're all grown up, behavin' like a gentleman, walking the...

A lot of people have been tweeting at me, IMing me, Facebooking me, Myspace-ing me, texting, calling, passing me notes on the train... all asking me one question..."HOW DO YOU KNOW MATT RUBANO?!?"
You know, it's a complicated story, how we got here... there's a lot of twists and turns, but one thing is for sure, I'd like to say, loud and clear that our friendship is real and rivals that of the...
