Halloween is a silly azz holiday. I haven’t dressed up in years but put the effort in to be the best darn pirate I could be this time around. I know that this is supposed to be a kid’s holiday, but 30+thousand grown adults showed up for the Halloween Street party on Church Street this year.

This was the funniest costume I saw!! Do you see the bills on his utility belt?!?!?!?
Finally, one of my FAVORITE rappers alive came to Orlando this week. Common along with N.E.R.D. and Chester French graced the stage of the Hard Rock Live on October 9th and ROCKED IT! I got there early so I was RIGHT up under the stage. I saw every bead of sweat that dropped off of Common’s face. I gazed in amazement as Common took each breath of air and exhaled perfectly executed lyrics. I even witnessed in amazement (and a little confusion) as Common went so HARD that his nose bled. Yes, his nose bled and he STILL kept on going.
Of course, Common performed numbers from his upcoming collab with Pharell (Universal Mind Control is awesome), but he sprinkled a few gems from past albums like “Be”, “Testify”, “Go”, and one of my all time fav’s…”I Used to Love Her”. He break danced for us, he freestyled, AND he brought some audience members on stage.

Sunday Evening, we celebrated Christina’s 24th birthday!!! We started off at Kobe’s for that birffday dinner.

Aren’t they a cute couple? (Christina and Dan)

I spent this past weekend in Miami celebrating Jeane’s birthday. The ride there was boring as hell, but well worth it.
Above are all of the usual suspects (and Natalie’s new pooch Roxy) jazzed up before heading to Opium for the night.
This weekend, we celebrated my mom’s 50th birthday. We had so many friends and family show up that we actually ran out of food so I’m ELATED that so many people came to show her support. I don’t have time to write much because I’ve already been threatened…gotta develop the pictures before I get my butt whooped!
Happy 4th to everyone! I hope you ate, drank, and celebrated to the FULLEST!!! I spent the day at Momma J’s house. I played as her photographer (and I learned it’s not as easy as it looks).
I ate WELL, I drank WELL, and had a great time with friends and family and that’s all it’s about to me.
In the evening, I went downtown to watch the fireworks at Lake Eola. It was like “Bombs over Baghdad” out there! We took as many photos as we could and I am really happy with the way they turned out.

Winter Park High School had our 10 year reunion over this weekend. I had been contemplating if I wanted to go, and after being there, I can’t say that I regretted it. Yes, the event was a little dry and overpriced, and yes, they had the nerve not to even server a meal (or real liquor), but reminiscing was great!
There are still a LOT of people I didn’t get to see, but for those of you who came (especially to my afterparty), I’m really glad to know that you all turned out so well. Our crew is STILL FINE! LOL
