Birthdays. They come and go. Some disappoint you, others pull through. Just like people I guess. I went into my last birthday without expectations. For the last few years I’ve combined my birthday celebration with friends and family who are around the same date. I stressed about every single detail to the point where at the end of the night I forgot that it was my day to, and at times was...
Vegas Punk House
Anyone who knows me well, knows that Halloween is my absolute most favourite day of the year. It’s more important than my birthday or any other holiday. Got it? Okay. So I have been working the last four Halloween’s and this year decided to go to Vegas and do it big.
What better way to accommodate this passion than to stay in Fat Mike’s (NOFX) mini mansion just blocks from the...

Loaded Curry Potato Skins
Bake them in foil. Cut em in half. Scoop em out. Mix with sea salt, finely sliced green onions, shredded carrots, ground white pepper, cream cheese, table spoon of margarine, and at last, two table spoons of yellow curry powder (for four...
Gingerman Social Eatery
Great restaurant, great decor (relaxed modern pub atmosphere), amazing food.
This place opened up not to long ago on Kerr St. I would pass by questioning the name and location. Turns out the food was amazing. I’m a fan of freshly squeezed grapefruit juice and this was one of the best.

Your Nails On Crack
Iggy comes back right before my birthday and my vow to not drink until Dec. 25th (with the exception of my birthday) is broken. Two bottles of wine, a shit load of nail polish, chain smoking on the porch during deep conversation and passing out to 500 Days of Summer on repeat, this is what you wake up with.
Next: we’re going to play white girl/black girl Hamilton. Neon...

Tom Hanks stars in a Banksy Rip Off
And then there was this guy. This was at like 11am and my dad spotted him on the way back. He was just standing knee deep in Lake Ontario, dressed in black nodding his head back forth with his hands in a prayer like position. I don’t know what it was about, my guess some kind of solar deity ritual. Regardless, it was...
Reiner vs. The Minks
Reiner is a Wellington regular who always has something to say and hooks me up with cool music shit like the Queen anthology he sold to me for 10 bucks last week. He came in the other day and tried to sell me this Mink scarf for a $100. I politely declined. Instead we had a photo shoot and then he decided to put them on his head and go up behind customers and scare the shit out of them.

Backyard Bliss
The statues in my childhood home have always held a special place in my heart. They’re always the topic of a good conversation and in high school, for I think it was english class, we had to make a video and these guys, along with my dads nude paintings were in the background. I was sent to the office to explain myself and was lectured on how this wasn’t acceptable in a catholic...

Ljenko's Birthday
For my brothers birthday, we went to the Black Forest Inn on King St. in Hamilton. This continues to be my favourite restaurant in Hamilton. I always forget to take photo’s of the food because by the time it arrives I’m too anxious to eat it. Trust me it’s good and the waitresses wear traditional outfits.

Wellington Diaries

Sucks to be Brian
These were really popular in the 80’s, and clearly they haven’t been used or maintained since then. I don’t know why my parents still have them around but whenever I’m having a bad day I just stand in front if the urinals in the men’s bathroom and look at them.

My dad and I have decided to take long Tuesday morning walks to shake off Monday night drinking. Looking back on these photo’s I realized I went a little vignette happy with the editing process. Oops.

Melissa's Bachlerotte, Falls
So yes, this was your typical bachlerotte party full of penis’, lingerie, games, and drinks in every colour of the gay flag. The one thing that stood out was the hotel. Greatwolf Lodge is typically known as a family hotel with small children running around petting the mechanical animals in the lobby. So when you see a large group of hot skanks with their tits out and legs bare, drunk after a...
Hmmmm
So my dad has been going through some shit and in his efforts to redecorate the whole house (which I no longer live in) my room turned out like this. I took these after a long night of drinking in the back yard and getting totally fucked on homemade red. I laid in bed for hours while the orange paint blinded my eyes and Playboy bunny comforter covered half my body. The rest of the house deserves...

No matter what time of the day I’m in this place, or how many times I’ve eaten it, the tuna sandwich from Famous never fails.

Date With Iggy
So Iggy came back for a few weeks before she headed to Europe. Since there really isn’t anything to do in Stoney Creek, we grabbed a pizza from Roma on Barton, and decided to blow bubbles with a bubble gun I got off a booster at the bar for 2 bucks. Van Wagners beach really isn’t that bad if you put a filter on your camera, ignore the smell, and block out the fact that a dead body was...
They'reeee Backkkk
The Candy Cane doughnut is back at Canada’s favourite morning fix. Now I can stop hitting all the locations in Hamilton and harassing the drive through people. “Do you have it yet? Do you have it yet?”. This sex-in-your-mouth doughnut should be available all year round along with the blueberry and banana timbits.
a canadian in america
I’ve been in San Francisco for less then 24 hours and have already experienced quit the adventure. It started with a morning interrogation at Queenston/Lewiston bridge. The guy found it hard to believe that I was traveling alone for three days just to “wander the streets of San Francisco”. I couldn’t tell him the real reason because my mom was in the car and I have...
