I’m not one to endorse products. Rarely will you see me wear a brand t-shirt, and if you do its for one of my friends companies.

Yesterday I went to the eye doctor, it was time for a new pair of glasses. I got to pick out new frames… I HATE picking out new frames, they never have what I want. I like heavy thick rimmed black glasses. Think Buddy Holly, or your old skool emo glasses. Ever since I have had to wear glasses, I have like the thick frames the most. Most people don’t like this style, so finding glasses like that is alway a pain… until now.

Paul Frank is a company that makes awesome stuff. I think part of the reason for that is because they employ young people that are into indie rock, punk and hardcore music. They actually sponsor a number of hardcore bands but you wouldn’t know that from their clean and sharp boutique image.

Paul Frank has a line of prescription eyeglass frames that people like me have been looking for. You can find the glasses through http://www.baumvision.com

I personally went with the “Pinkerton” frames.

Pinkerton the name of a Weezer album. The singer, Rivers Cuomo is known for his thick glasses, much like Buddy Holly was.

I dont like Weezer as a band, and I don’t like Rivers and his drug problems, but I like the style of his glasses!

I ordered the frames today, they should be here tomorrow, then I can get my RX filled. I’m excited to have glasses that I actually want this time.

So here it is, this is me officially endorsing a clothing company, Paul Frank. Paul Frank really is my friend!

Thommy Green has become one of my best friends over the last 7 years. We have been through a lot, girl troubles, weddings, street fights, a band, travel across the US, church, matching tattoos, and all all other sorts of wacky mis-adventures. On Tuesday, Thommy and his wife Krissi left Redlands to move to Saltlake City. Sunday night after church we decided to throw a party for them before they left. we also decided to make it a special party… a toga party!

On monday I sent out one text message to a list of our friends. 8 hours and 30+ people later this was going on at my house.

please note that not alcohol or drugs were present, this was a monday night, and the party only had 8 hours of planning time…

there was much soda and party happening that night. to top it off, We watched a bootleg dvd of 300 during the party. good times. I love my friends, I love Redlands.

p.s. you never realize how many tattoos you and your friends have until you are all standing around wearing nothing but bed sheets.
