what the hell is wrong with my body??

I have been terribly under the weather lately. I have been to a few doctors, all for what I'm calling "Dizzy spells followed by high anxiety". I have never had a panic attack up until a few weeks ago. They are HORRIBLE. I don't know whats wrong, but throughout the day, I am getting these dizzy spells, some so strong that I have slight balance issues. This is not good. I have had an EKG on my heart- that went well. I have had an MRI on my brain, all seemed normal there (even if my wife says I lack that part all-together). I am now having a basic hearing test Monday morning to then be able to go to a ENT doctor. I hope that this ear, nose, and throat doc can finally pinpoint where my problem lies. I have been talking with various friends and family and they are suspecting the inner-ear. That is where a problem could affect ones balance.
Lord, grant me the patience do deal with this horsecrap. I want to be a father, mechanic, and friend again. This is not fun.

MGMT


Interesting new cover of the upcoming MGMT album which is scheduled to drop on April 13th. The album is named "Congratulations".

I've enjoyed a few of their hits. They have that almost annoying, but catchy pulse that can get stuck in your head hours later.

Disneyland?



So both the woman and myself have grown up always being within earshot of Disneylands nightly fireworks. I would be able to gauge the time by the first sound of the show. 9:30pm... and my night would come to an end. Being so close to the park kinda made me numb to what lurked just a couple miles away from our home. D-land simply was not that exiting to me. This upcoming weekend its Cassies birthday and we will be headed to the happiest place on earth. I hope it turns out awesome. The last time we were there was a decade ago for her 18th birthday... whoa! We're in our late 20's?!? Ha. We are gonna try and do the park-hopper deal for both D-land and CA-Adventure. The little boy is going with his Nana Barbara just nearby in Garden Grove. Hope they both have a great time!

Plastic Beach


I have always had a strange attraction to Gorillaz. I know that Damon Albarn is a talented artist, and have liked his works from Blur, Gorillaz and The Good, Bad, and the Queen. I can remember working in Anaheim after-hours at a job cleaning up listening to "Clint Eastwood" over the P.A. system. It gave me a kick in the pants and made sweeping up the floors just a bit more enjoyable.

I'm thrilled that a new album is coming out by Gorillaz. Bummer I won't see them @ Coachella... as the woman & I had a talk about it not being worth the $$$ with the 3 bands we really wanted to see spread out over the three days. Not worth the 100+ degree weather, not even to mention the fact that our little guy cant handle a place like that. Ugh.

Speaking of... Mr. Jacob is approaching his 4th month! Insane!!!
