I'm so thankful for John Houck. He designed a ton of courses in Austin and all over the US. Many of them before a time it was even a tiny bit lucrative or notable.

But gahdamn he's so boring to listen to. I know that's nitpicky, but ooof

It's honestly kinda wild how sugar affects you after you cut a lot of sugar out of your diet and get real active.

I had one Outrageous Reeses candy bar and holy moly I just feel heavy. Very quick cool down

I just want to learn how fucking plant correctly. If I can fix my footwork maybe I can actually throw.

I live in Austin, so there is a plenty of used gear hanging around, and some decent rental options here and there, but sometimes it's all just Ooof. If you know what I mean hahaa

Last week, unleaded gas was like $2.50 in Austin. Diesel was a little over $3. Today, unleaded is $3.10 and diesel is over $4.

All for a ridiculous, imperialist war.

Fuck this place.

There's just a lot of other things I need to take care of first, but I'm excited to get back to it someday

Basically all new heads, probably a hi-hat and stand, snare and strainer for the snare, kick pedal (I may be able to fix if I try hard enough), probably a new crash.

I've done what I can to clean them up and Definitely open to used, but, I'm not sure I even have enough for that right now. 😅

Broderic finally posted a video of him playing Roy G after posting videos at some other courses in central Texas. I'm so psyched

I REALLY need to play a drum kit soon. I've been thinking about it a lot but oh man I do not have the money to refurb mine and I'm not currently friends with anyone with access to one at the moment so I'm in a weird limbo

(Paul McBeth getting the win would be a sweet story too but a Ricky or Chandler would be cooler for me)

Come on, lead card. Don't let Gannon Buhr sneak in. I'm rooting hard for Ricky or Chandler today

I don't understand hole 6 at Olympus. Why put hay bales there but not make the short fairway hazard or OB? That island is huge from that range

Dylan Cease is wearing a shirt with Genie from Aladdin for the second day in a row. He really likes Genie (which is fair, Robin Williams is the goat)

I was going to play disc golf midday but I still heavy from my big late breakfast.

I know rest is important but geez I feel guilty

I finally got to throw the new Innova Fox and sorta new Gorgon today

Fox: more understable than it feels it would be, oddly larger diameter, but it's really fun

Gorgon: The true stability is hard to nail down, but it feels great, I think it will compliment my Trail well

Three Headed Nate?
Nate Cube?
Three MusketNates?
Tres AmiNates?
Nate White Omelette?
Animaniacs?
Rule of Nates?
Lord of the Rings: Return of the Nates?
Star Wars Ep3: Revenge of the Nates?

Something I've been working on a lot in my DG form is my footwork; the foundation is one of the most important parts of a structure. Bad foundation, shaky structure.

Shortening the cross stop where my back foot gets behind my front foot has been huge for accuracy+distance

Also the Ryan/Bryan situation was fine, everyone understood who everyone was talking about

I got tied for 1st!

It was just a one rounder C-Tier, and apparently we don't get actual playoffs, so we did an unofficial CTP playoff on hole one to decide who gets the trophy. I lost that but the profile is only gonna read it as a win so whatever 🙂‍↕️

It actually wasn't nearly as bad as I thought it could be, everyone always knew who we were talking about when we said either name 😂

Oh gosh I wish I could play a tourney called The Hoot! Sadly I live in ATX

Wait WHAT? Y'all played a whole round together and he never corrected you?? What the fuck 😂😂

I'm playing a shotgun start disc golf tournament tomorrow.

There's a guy on my card named Ryan. There is also a guy named Bryan.

Now I'm going to be self conscious about pronouncing the "B" in Bryan's name.

The other day I saved a cardinal that got into the warehouse. It ran into a window and then spun out into a large trash bin. Then I got a little cardboard sheet and scooped him to get him outside.

So now, I definitely need a cardinal tattoo.

tape measure is one of those things that I know that I have but I don't know where the hell it is.

I need to purge the house

It takes so long for the City of Austin Utilities to process electronic payments it drives me a little crazy. Makes me think something is going wrong.
