Surfwax off my shoulder
Right, so I know this is supposed to be an art blog thing, but I am hella busy preparing for next weeks Claviger launch.
So, instead here are some photos of me and SF Vizers/buddies learning to surf.
The top 10 rad surfing things:
1: Got to dress like a superhero team.
2: After paddling out for the first time, 1 minute passes and instructor says, “Good turn, you are ready . Hey, and here is a perfect wave…GO!” then pushes me.
3: Frightened and nervous, but able to stand for a few seconds on first wave.
4: Seeing a seal five feet from me! He kept popping his head up and following the surfers around playing with them.
5: JB in a wetsuit. I mean, who hasn’t pretended they were dating some wet-suited chick after playing hours of Tomb raider?
6: Mostly confident surfing on the last two waves of the day.
7: The taste of a cold PBR after 5 hours of tasting only Salt Water
8: Constant cheering of Viz peeps.
9: A giant shaggy dog on the beach named Chewbacca. Really!
10. Not being eaten by a shark.
Since last session:
* Last Drink: Baileys and coffee. Trying to stay awake at Bimbo’s waiting for the New Pornographers to come on. Tasty but costs $7! WTF?
* Read: Preacher, Book 1: Gone to Texas, Ennis and Dillon hhhhh
How did I miss this series when it was new? It is awesome and reminds me of the first time I read Sandman and was all blown away
* Watched: The Corpse Bride, Burton hhhh
Emo goth puppets cajoling through pretty sets. Moved at a better pace than NBX-mas but not nearly as epic.
* Listened to: Twin Cinemas, The New Pornographers hhh
Not as consitent as Electric Version, but pretty good. Most of the mediocre songs sounded great live.
RATING SCALE h Utter shite hh Don't bother hhh Average hhhh nicely done hhhhh farking brilliant

Hey! Glad you had a good time. While I can't vouch for JB in a wetsuit (I leave that to you!) I will say that ladies in wetsuits are quite a site for sore eyes (or at least worth the sore arms the next day!).
