Whatever happened to Paul?


I am not sure what to respond to anymore. Usually people have nicknames, but I have a library of them big enough to fill the smithsonian. I can remember being a very confused three year old at all of my Mom's family get-togethers. My aunts would see me and say, "Ay, mi Pablito!". After this I would usually ask my Mom what a "Pablito" is. It means, little Paul. They still call me this even though I am 18. Then in sixth grade my friends would call me, "Reymundo", my middle name. I didn't mind that because Rocket Power was cool back then. Then in high school I have had terms of endearment such as, "Weller", "P-Unit", "Ray", "Pauly", Pauly Shore", Paul Giomatti", "Pabs" "Walrus"(huh?), "Bonesaw"(ehh?), and most notoriously, "Paul Wall". I often hear this name as I walk through the halls and into class rooms. I don't really care what people call me, all I know is that I am not bald and don't have any grillz. But I do "sit sideways" once in a while. And Ms. Orlowski... my name is not "Pablo".

Beinvenidos!

Hola, mi compadres and other people. This is a brand new blog all about the mythic and real California, and about the everyday life of a kid who left Cali for the worst! This includes crazy good food, surfing and awsome music. Anybody from Cali, or anyone else who wishes they were there (me), just leave some comments... later.
