trains etc.
so all last year i been slightly uptight running and owning my own business, but the getting there on time has always been somewhat stressful. Starting a day was always kinda off cause I was bitter at the trains running, stopping, going, not going, slow, and slower. So yesterday, great mood, get to the train station and a sign is posted "no trains 10-3 manhattan bound" and the manhattan bound platform is roped off. Its 915, what the fuck. So I had to take a train forward to catch a train going back. Now on some of those service change signs they make it seem like its no big deal, BULLSHIT! Not only did 2 manhattan bound trains come and STOP at the platform, but I had made it so far to the opposite platform to run would have been a waste of time. Now, here I am half way in to the city, taking opposite trains, and guess what................I FORGOT MY FUCKING WORK KEYS. ok, sounds kinda hostile, but it was just initial reaction. Good thing everyone will be back 100% functioning mode next week. Anyways, day ended great, made a killer spinach/onion/pepper omelette with some turkey bacon. Delicisous. At the end of the day, it proved to be one of the greater more successful business days in sometime! Whatta way to start off the year. Thanks for reading, and would love to share MTA "fucked us" stories.
on a sidenote, I was once union and had to strike over contractual disputes. I never wanted to strike, I was 18 and needed money to fund my partying post HS era. It sucked. I worked at a grocery store then, and to strike over somethings were worth it. NOW when MTA strikes, that should be illegal cause you are not only just keeping the city from moving. Only thing or group that should never be allowed to strike! THE FUCKING MTA.
GOD DAMN FUCKING
:)

newness
well there are a few new people in my life. I have a new intern. Hes pretty cool. He does what I say and I think thats all that really matters, right? Nah, hes a good guy, getting the hang of things really quick. My old roommate is anew. I had a roommate for a day in december. We partied when he first arrived, but had since spent most the time on the road. Well, now hes back and we are ready to relive opening night once again. Its just all bout strategic planning and making sure that all the right people/things are around at the right time. Greatest part of this is that he aint here on the weekends. Talk bout the perfect situation. even if he was here on the weekends, I dont think I could really mind. We def have similar personalities. Good thing I dont get annoyed with myself. All the sametime, a really good friend of mine just got engaged. Im happy for her. She said she is really excited, surprised and thinks its the right situation. Cheers to her. Drop her a line of congratulations. She is the lil girl flashing with her boyfriend in my top 8.
you know still with all this newness, still think bout others that I wish could spend more time with in my life, whether its wanted or unwanted, that part always sucks. Sometimes you think, did I really do somehting wrong to deserve this upon myself. Then again, I guess after the long break, many drinks had, and many nights not recalled, paranoia might be par for the course.
On another note. I have a friend looking for an apartment in brooklyn/queens/city area. If you know of a cool person in a position looking for a really cool roommate to compliment, please hit me up. I can pass along anything you may have in mind. Please, if its super expensive, save the post or message. We all work in the music industry. Someone said money grew on trees if you work in it long enough....................i think the soil has gone bad. Music, well, thats woth another post initself.
Work is good. cat is good,. thanks for all who asked. Off to cali next week. if youre reading this and didnt know, maybe we can meet up.

go blog yourself
Current mood: fuck you
so another weekend comes and goes. Another monday tuesday passes by. Another legal holiday passes and Im off to cali on thursday.
last thursday night was filthy. I drank, which I shouldnt have and then I did even badder, yeah, not a word I know, things! I was afraid of not walking on friday, but friday seemed to be but a breeze. OK, maybe the most serious winter chill. Friday night I hooked with a documentary on the Germany Olympic tragedy that happened like sometime round when I was born. I love documentaries, so to see this was eye opening to me. I didnt know very much but that it happened. I was also in Munich one year ago, so I have been interested since being there seeing the olympic stadium and all. I also had an interest to check out the eagles nest (hitlers summer home) while i was there but it was closed for the winter. Actually come to think bout it EVERYTHING was closed when I was there. YADDA YADDA, so yeah, watched the eye opening documentary with one eye open on a good sedative. That was friday.
All friday I had some friends in mind to call and yap at to catch up. Somehow I dont think I could ever catch up on all my personal calls since they seemed to be backlogged since Ive owned a cell. Soooooooooooo, if I owe you a call.............. text me :) Nonetheless, I didnt even text anyone. Maybe one person or 2 just to keep things at bay.
Saturday...........brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr freezing rain, high winds, and low air temp just dont mix........when youre in it! I spent the day cleaning up the apartment anticipating the roommate of one days return from the month of Decembers looooooong absence. OK, honest truth........ he was back thursday night and we partied togetehr but I dont think I remember enough to say I remember him being here. Having a room mate you get along with is super key! For all those who read this and live with a nightmare, sucks to be you. I never wanted/needed a roommate but my friend is here monday through friday and gone all weekend with his family and still takes care of the rent. Dont you wish you had my roomie. I've gotten off the point, saturday...... it was cold!
Saw Hostel and Wedding Crashers this weekend. After seeing so many Asian gore flicks, there really isnt too much the americans can do to catch up. Yes, I was disappoionted. Too much hype on the gore stirred me up for alot more that wasnt there. Wedding Crashers was an impulse buy on friday night (but due to long lines) that I bought on saturday night.
PS- I hate assholes that cant take constuctive criticism
Sunday wasnt to much of a whole lotta anything. I had some party materials still round the house to make a small war party happy. Soooooooo, we put on the warpaint and danced around the teepees until it was all gone. During said time I watched Carlitos Way and indulged in file sharing with friends. I got waaaaaaaaay back into my 80's metal with Mercyful Fate, Exodus, and Testament. Ahhhhhhhh the days that started it all for me.
PSS- hate people who completely ignore questions like they werent even said to them. Its like, what the fuck is so turned upside down in your life that you have to ignore a friend. Someone who actually puts out their hand to help, the person who is there to listen, the person who isnt there to fuck up your life. Maybe even make it somewhat enjoyable. Its like totally sabotaging a friendship, and thats exactly how I feel, betrayed. Maybe that person is on myspace and will read this, doubtful though. anyways, when that person does decide to finally open up, dont be too surprised when the person you thought you knew isnt there anymore. You brought out the worst for yourself.
annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd to the lighter side of things.
An ant can carry like fucking 1800 times their weight.
Im off to cali on thursday. I hate flying. More importantly I hate traveling. This means laundry has to be done, cat food has to be bought, and hair must be cut. Hair not necessary, but it is time.
To everyone reading this............. hope you enjoyed the insight. For those I spit on, Im sorry............... you deserve it.

One Day In September.......
Finally got to watch the rest of it all the way through. I was happy that I fell asleep early in it many times before. It kept my interest and made me feel as if I was there, one of the millions watching the clock around the world to see what woudl happen next. So fucked up what people do over religion and then how Germany tried a hoax a few weeks later to redeem themselves in the eyes of the world. So fucked up. Too many missed oppurtunities to take everyone out. Of course TV foils all attempts. Germany had to be the poorest trained or prepped at all for this stuff back in the day. And I they mentioned in the documentary, just bout every country had a terror squad team or something that was prepared for something like this, but not the germans. Amazing. I know I could never put myself the position of being palestinian or isreali, but from the outside world perception, that was just fucked up. One thing I will say was that known plans on the hostage takeover never included any intent to kill, but killed they did as an example to the others. Anyways, great flick. I love documentaries and this is a 4 thumbs up.
PS another good documentary to rent about the music biz is Overnight. Great tale of rags to riches to movie deal, to record deal, to lies after lies, after bullshit. Man, I feel like I deal with these guys everyday.
bye

thursday after cali
only went with the title cause it followed suit of the previous 2.
first thought. Am I a blogger? hmmmmmmm. I was called one recently. Glory to that person who reads this now huh? Anyways, I think I am. I always wanted to try and just capture random thoughts and times, but never really did it. So, to summarize all that you may have read in my blog, its all just random thoughts and or rants. What I think about when I sit here and look at this box with all the fancy toolbars and font. Whats my mood, comments, privacy, do I care for you to know what podcast Im listening to. I never put any of that. I think its boring. I could promote the band Im listening to, maybe, but not today. So to those reading, I dont know what to say. Maybe this will work, "HERES WHATS ON MY MIND.............right now"
So Ive been back a few days. I had some wine, relaxed some. So glad to be back. I love my job, but really not a fan of having to pack a bag. Its an anxiety thing (maybe) ? Im just not a fan of travelling. Of course its nature of the beast and not something that keeps me from enjoying what i do. The whole seperation from home sucks. Its a seperation of routine. A seperation of daily activities. One thing I love to do is work out. When Im on the road I try to eat as best as possible. When Im away I may try to get up just to get a feel of accomplishment or attempt at working out. In Cali there was no hotel gym (ramada, tight budget) but they did have a pool. I went for a swim almost each day. It helps. Something as little as that can keep me from wanting to go anywhere. Being away from home also kinda troubles any sort of relationship I may be in or whatever it is called these days. Lets call it "courting". I hate sleepovers. Hate hate hate. I use my cat as an excuse most the times or family event. Hate leaving home!
i was thinking bout writing some about the trip. In a really brief summary I met tons of great new contacts at some instrument companies. I also got to meet tons of rockers of big and small (sizes and fame). I saw anthrax play the final show on their reunion tour. Sang along with most songs. Jason getting slapped by kip winger. The issues of left over stringbeans and whether or not moby ate them. Why I wasnt drinking. Dealing with some intoxicated persons in passenger seats that have needs for whiskey and loves to mix drinks without a seatbelt, but not without a diet coke. During the trip I was irritable at times. I made the most of the times. Oh, and I almost broke Jasons front tooth, sorry, and yes I was sober. Sad! Eh, i would have done it drunk too anyways...........whatcha gonna do. Thanks to all who made the times good.
Back to the grind, so much to catch up on. So much coming up. SXSW is just round the corner. I always love SXSW, with a little less anxiety since most friends are down there at sametime. Work is good though.
Im bored with thoughts. Off to watch One Day In September. A documentary on the 1972 Munich Olympics as told by families and relatives of both the victim and terrorists. Interesting it is, sadly I will have to admit falling asleep on it like 3 times already. I try to hard to watch when Im tired. I think Im halfway through and not to entirely tired, so should be ok tonight.
i think i wrote enough bout me. read enough bout me?

am i losing it?
not alot of blogs this week, sorry, working and sleeping. its friday night and high on fire is in town and i didnt go. ive seen them before, wouldnt mind seeing the openers and some friends, but the thought of waiting til 1230 or later for a band with no real plans in between (yeah, believe I couldnt come up with plans! riiiiiiiiiight) before they went on. to be honest, ive always had a wierd thing bout bowery ballroom (venue for the show) always has this dark cavernous vibe to it. Sounds cool, yeah, but its this cavernous mildew kinda place that reverts my memory to days of being sick and not wanting to move in bed. Like Kryptonite to superman. I know I cant avoid it just for that reason alone, thats for sure! Hey, its friday night, end to busy week, who the fuck are you for me to answer to why I didnt want to go. Oops, i actually offered up my reason. Sorry for getting aggro on y'all.
OK, aggroness. Sometimes i really feel guilty for hard pressing people. for those who have experienced it and reading this now, and think Im a dick, this might offer insight. I dont think anything on the face of the earth is really all primp, proper, and perfect. thats that! I understand people have flaws, and will admit to some of my own............ another day. I hate people that avoid straight questions. Its like asking a friend for the time and them giving you the weather. Bullshit. Anyways, in order to avoid this, i put up a shell, and sometimes that shell repels even the nicest of people, the warmest of hearts. I shut it out until I get the answers I want, or feel I am confident in the situation. PS I was also related to being the grumpy old man yelling at the kids screaming get of my sidewalk. Be straight with me, i will be straight with you. Mind you we can have fun, but when it comes to business, that hurts the most. Yes, they are not friends, but then again, we all work together as if we are friends. Honestly, we do try to work like we are greatest friends in my job. I think thats actually one of the reasons I enjoy what i do. I see the nicer side of people and disregard the shadiness until it actually gets in the way. Unfortunately more often than none, it does. Love you all. seriously, and that aint the booze talking............
i should say something nice here to make up for the people that might think this is aimed at, but Im too stubborn to do it, sorry. You know i like you when I like you.
speaking bout booze, no vodka in sometime. I dont think I have touched but one shot of hard liquor. No, I lie, I had one vodka tonic this year, and one shot of vodka and peppered in some wine now and again (thanks corey) for medicinal purposes. Im pretty stoked bout it. Its nothign impressive really. Not that i had a drinking problem either. I just saw, or didnt remember seeing, somethings along with doing somethings and only hearing or seeing pictures later on. None of that. I think Im reserving for sxsw? my bday is coming up, could that be the trainwreck of it all? doubtful.
Im done.
not really....... just too lazy to vent the many thoughts at one time. maybe they will pass like dark clouds over a genious mind?

goddamn its cold outside
anyone who knows me, knows that im a super cold person. no, not in a personal way (well yeah to those who think it) but physically, Im an icicle. the air temp outside is about 30 and with the windchill its probably bout 1. Wank wank wank! I know thats what you north midwesterners might think. Well, thats why this is my blog and not yours. You chose to read bout ME!
MEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEMEME and all about me!
if anything, i would probably think that having a wife/girlfriend/significant other could be very helpful right now. She could get up, go to the store, get my sunday paper, get me coffee and feed kitty. ha! This is a blog right? so I can write/wish what I want!
OK, i now close myself to everyone now.
(...... anyone who knows me knows that Im pretty open and compassionate to most friends in need. Im not that self centered.......or the old man on the porch yelling at the kids to get off my lawn.)
looking to get out and get some groceries today, but dont think Im gonna do that for 2 reasons. 1 being its too freakin cold 2 being its my birthday week. I have 3 dinners this week with friends and two shows (opeth and god forbid). So, if I make stuff for the week and Im not here, whats the point for it to sit in the fridge? For snacking at night! thats what its there for..............if I was to make anything. Im not. I think I will pick up some fruit though. That takes bout 10 mins out in the cold round the old corner. Am I making sense on the decision or am i just procrastinating??
Netflix screwed me for the weekend. I got one flick and it was an old 80's flick I actually have on video but was hoping for the bonus materials. How shitty is that! Now I gotta wait til tuesday for more flicks. I guess i got lots to look forward to next weekend. Hope its this cold then too so I can actually watch them. On another netflix note!! Are you still waiting for the one movie in que for the last 6 months? Dont bother emailing them. I did for a movie I had in que for 5 months, now 6. They basically said shove it and pick another movie. just a heads up for those feeling the same pain. On another netflix note, wouldnt you think that netflix has "help" from the beatles? NOPE!!!!!!!! Sorry PICK ANOTHER FUCKING MOVIE. Thats unbelievable! I am standing here beside myself. ha. Yeah, so with all the new subscriptions they make online (we all see the banner add) the retail signups (yes, they sell memberships at best buy) and all those who sign up through word of mouth, they STILL cant afford to buy a few DVDS of help or Blues Brothers anniversary edition (my 6 month wait). I even tried the old tactic like in the movie summer school and writing the company and threatening all my 6 friends to go back to their mom and pop video stores (yeah like we like walking to the store for videos anymore) but of course they dont see me as any threat. Hey, give me credit for trying atleast. Im sure you have all had those thoughts now and again. Well, I acted on it! I didnt even get one month free for waiting 5. Oh well. I go out to the world a smarter person...........in regards to netflix.
anything I write from here on down is just cause I dont want to workout. Again, procrastination.
Been listening to the ipod on shuffle the whole weekend. No particular records have been listened to. i have noticed at some hours they go back and forth on certain bands. Last night it was oceansize, this morning its deadguy (and i only have one record in my ipod from them). Go figure.
in flames rocked this past week. Crazy they sold close to 24k first week. Cant wait to see what bullet for valentine will do first week out. I think the first week on the hand of blood ep was like 2500. Ive worked with them since last summer so it will be interesting to see the progression in sales. Trivium was pretty rockin too. Devildriver and zao also played. Last night was the acacia strain, life once lost, and himsa. Darkest Hour and Dead to Fall played but I dont want to talk bout them incase Tony Brummel decides to take me to court for mentioning anything victory related (no offense mike).
I wonder what its like personally for a band to go on after another band tears the house down?
OK, time to work out. Another blog logged, bino out
this edition of my blog was sponsored by the underline, bold, and italic keys and the vowel o.

Birthday
Wow, what can I say, I gotta few friends! Id like to thank my friends, family, the academy, and all the other fine people for helping me get to where Im at now! Id like to thank my manager, booking agent, and most of all moms and the lord jesus christ for whom either one, I wouldnt be here!
OK, nuff horseshit! Thanks to everyone who left the kind messages of birthday wishes. Overall, I cant complain. Really! Im sure there are people who can find or live the reasons to not rejoice in their special days, but I really did have a good birthday. I can talk bout let downs, and disappointments but......... that would only cast a shadow on this blog. So, with that, thank you for all who made the effort, bought the drinks, and grabbed my ass along the way. You all really know how to make an old soul seem young again! I hope we get to do it all over again next year with some friends of new and old.
i seem to feel little more lightheaded than i did when I started this..............take a good guess why!?? Welcome back intoxication! my how we have forgotten you stumble so well!
Atleast I remembered getting home tonight.

the weekends get shorter and days longer
saw some noise friday night. Noise as in noise-core? would that be it? Got to see a rare public appearance of pig destroyer. All i can say is feedback galore. Yes, lots of noise. They had 2 girls up on stage with them, wives for all i know, just neu wave dancin and playing with these noise boxes. actually only one danced, the other one was on her knees the whole set swiggin red stripe and waving her mic of an instrument in front of a pa while turning knobs. Noise. missed the headliner unfortunately whitehouse! oh well. I betcha they were noisey too?
Saturday started off great, end great too, but got up did the whole breakfast/brunch thing and got lots of shopping out of the way. Well, atleast the cat food is replenished.
watched hustle and flow. my netflix minireview: Turning tricks from airplay..... this couldnt have come from hollywood!
also caught Constant Gardner. Again my review: needs more T&A otherwise could use better story line.
Sunday is here. Supposed to hang with a friend i havent had the pleasure of their company in sometime. Still waiting if thats going to happen but I do have loose itinerary to hit the city for some this and that of needed household items.
Parents off to the islands tomorrow. WIsh I was going toooooooooo............... I hate the cold...... austin you better be prepared with the nice weather and a yellow rose as a gratitude of hospitality. Sunshine will be nice too.

for the bleeders
Actually that was last year at SXSW.....a brief broken abridged version of this years to follow
Talk bout lots of things to talk about. You know its never anything that I want to do really. With a blog this posting is just a mere
Thought or thoughts thrown together that sit neutral in my head until I decide to post.
Ramblings
SXSW was last week. Band highlights far less, at all cost, eagles of Death metal, beastie boys, kalas, relapse showcase, hopeless sub city Showcase (HH Inc.'s very own The Human Abstract was to play. Recording Delays kept them from attending sadly), poison the well, head automatica, The "fucking" Sword, twilight singers, circa survive, nebula, bad wizard, ghengis tron and dozens of others. Had bbq once this year, same as last year. Delicious brisket yummy! Had Chinese, some great chinese 2x (love that tofu and broccoli or the ever favored garlic spinach). Drink of the week was rum and diet. Yes it's very faggy in a Chelsea NY kinda way. So I like to watch my alcohol intake. If they came with a listing of daily nutrition the drinking game would be so much easier. I had one beer (hate beer) that was only due to some extreme cotto, er dry mouth. Had some great hang time with some late night party gals who love to drink til the doors close! I used fab (on a roll tonight with gay, no, sorry, happy terminology). Passed this pizza place that's used to blasting heavy metal louder than some of Austin's finer clubs pa system. Everyone raves bout it. Appropriately dubbed heavy Metal pizza. Me in my health conscious mode (yep worked out twice down there running 2 miles and some weights behind it) passed it up every time. Ok, I had some of a friend's piece of crust she had left over but that was it. Had a whopping 3 course meal of my favorite fruit the avocado. It was in the form mainly of guacamole. Guacamole and nachos, avocado salad, and guacamole tacos. Yummy!!! We threw a party with SPV and Rive video. Good times had by all, or so the pictures claim. There some blackhearted bastard to my equal stole my denim jacket. It was my favorite jacket and was like my sxsw jacket. I wore it the past 3 years. It was a sign of warm weather to come. There is a short karmic story behind it. 3 years ago I was in LA with one of our bands and end of the night someone left a jacket in the club. It was clean, atleast didn't look like anyone actually shit or pissed on it. It was in like new condition and just left behind in the club with no ID or distinguishing labels of ownership. Band went out to see if anyone had left it behind, long story short, I took it home, washed it, great new jacket! So, anyways, aside from the thief, they also got my MEDICATION that I had in the pocket and my red bull house key. If I had another one of those keys I probably would have found my jacket. Probably better off. Red Bull house is where you get to drink and have good times for free. FREE vodka PEOPLE!!! Fuck the redbull. I heard the red bull house was like halfway cross town anyways. Not too sure what else was in there, but what happened after losing the jacket?............the wind kicked up the next day and the temperature dipped. 70 or so with some high winds Friday. Rain and wind came Saturday. FUCK. What happens next? I come home and get sick. Son of a bitch. More on that later. So the party was a great success. I met lots of cool new people, reignited some old kinships with others. It was so good we had to extend it an hour. I missed one person who worked for certain crappy cable/satellite music provider programmer. He was there too. I saw him in pictures. Coward! Anyways, good riddance, farewell loser. Had a great night drinking of all places coyote ugly. Yeah, they danced on the bar, cool, whatever. I think they just get in the way of ordering a drink in a loud bar. You cant lean over to order a drink without fear some dancer with shitkickers is gonna kick you in the head while ordering a rum and diet. Anyways, they were quick regardless so Im just complaining. Waaaaaah. Emos is always a great place. Crowded or not, its likes Cheers. You always run into someone you know there. Always good hang! No Backroom this year! They had all the rap showcases there! Finally metal moves out of the ghetto! This is the like the second time Im writing this. I started it on the train on the way home as an email on my sidekick. Well, who forgot to charge that last night? ME! I saved it halfway through, but kept writing. Of course the battery dies, so I think I maybe short one idea or two that was in the original email but fuck it. Im sure there will be many things I can think of after the fact anyways.
So. I got home, I had this extremely discomforting little dry cough. Like something little bit worst than an itch so you always have to clear your throat kinda thing. Hated it! MAY THE PERSON WHO TOOK MY COAT (or someone elses) GO DIRECTLY TO HELL! Got home, had a great return meal of egg and cheese on a roll and some potatoes! Yummy and dirty, and chock full of a no salt thick organic ketchup. Im a whore for ketchup. On top of that netflix delivered 3 great flix, walk the line, caveman (old ringo starr flick from the 80's) and history of violence. On top of all those glorious motion picture offerings I come home to Howard Stern On Demand. Im a devoted listener and fan. I come home and listen when I can! Glad they rebroadcast all day now! Anyways, I was downloading a lot of that stuff before it was available. So the instant gratification is wordless. The fact that I was sick the next day sucked of course, but at least I had something to watch when I was awake, which wasn't often. Im feelin better thanks. Probably one of the big reasons is in part to a crucial cut down in smoking. Im pretty amazed how good Ive been. Eventually sometime soon I hope to just cut it off. I look forward to it. I believe if you try hard enough you can accomplish anything.
Not many shows this week. Got to hang with the roomie and watch walk the line. Watched half before passing out. Good movie from what I saw. I was just too tired to stay awake. Did some laundry..
Its officially Friday. Im tired and been up since yesterday.
Thank god its Friday blog complete in the most incomplete manner.

i hate falling asleep watching tivo
cause I always find myself never going back and watching the end of whatever series I am into at the time. At the end of the season I got like 12 shows that I watched somewhere between a quarter to 3/4's of. Dont you hate it too when you record something and the following weeks previews get cut off! damn them!
friday, saw 18visions and hung with some cool people. Directly after I went to the Tool show. Thank you Vinny. The show was absolutely amazing. I was honestly floored. There are not many shows sadly that I go to with the enthusiasm I brought to this show. I was something like 9th row center. I had friends in front row but I was just as happy in 9th row as i would have been in the first. the sound was amazing. the visual were usual tool fashion. lots to sink into like watching an old sabbath video or something. The videos played behind the singles. Amazing. I felt the whole band dead center of my chest. It was truly a show to be experienced.
Saturday I did some errands for household items. I stopped by the 15th location site of death in the forest to meet some friends I have talked with for a while but never met. That was fun though I felt bad for the people who traveled long distances and the 2 headliners that were to be there cancelled, Belphagor and 1349. Sorry. I think it turned out to be like 150 people inside according to some friends inside. Sad. Imagine if all those people were actually going to the original site and not knowing the site had changed, not once but 3 times. NOW, did this really effect attendance. If not, would the whole ordeal at the original location been and complete bust and sham? If not, again, woudl the headliners have made it? NO! why? apparently one bands visas were screwed some way or nother and the other band had a member with a criminal record and wasnt allowed into the states. Man, I would have been so pissed if I got up there, found the new location, settled in, then find out it was changed again, and then........... as miserable as it sounds be any happier the headliners cancel? All I have to say is Im glad I wasnt planning on attending. This is me! Im sure there maybe be atleast 30-40 people who were truly satisfied with the show they got.
Sunday, now, today, present day. Its little after 1 and I have already downed lots of coffee, croissant, cleaned the windows in the apt. There are 10 windows in this apt. Some of them are like doubles, so..... you do the math. Thats alot fucking windows. I vacuumed all the rugs in the kitchen, bedroom, and living room. Swept the whole apt. Did a 2 point cleaning process of washing all the floors. First a good scrub with a cleanser, then a hot water mop over. This repeated process was performed in the living, dining, kitchen, bed, and bathrooms. Dishes done. new curtains put up. I should get some new ones for living room. Took out the trash and washed my sheets.
music playlist so far today:
tool, far less, intronaut, abominable iron sloth, kings of leon (yeah, right, what the fuck?!)
holiday weekend next weekend. Lots of shows this week. It could be a good week. just think if I did all that in bout 4 hours that I have been up what could be accomplished the rest of the week.
BTW I have mentioned this before. Im an amazing domestic bitch! I can be hired for low low pricing or a good bottle of something. Can not and will not be held responsible for any mop handle humping or plush animal fondling.
i had to end it that way? didnt i? yes, i did!

scarey yes....alarming maybe......trouble definitely ......
ok, humoring nonetheless.........
so this weekend is going great. I got some good miles covered biking, yadda yadda........
i got smashed this weekend one night. I wont go into details cause it is boring or Im too lazy. I think lazy. Here is the highlighted punchline of one night. ..........
****AS I THINK IT WENT DOWN
Came home, pretty intoxicated, its late night. Cat hasnt been fed in hours. First thing through the door, thought is if the door upstairs was open, shes gonna meow as soon as I walk in, like a greeting. Door open, there she is. I think I walked in, ignored her hunger cries. Please, dont act like you never done this if you have a pet of your own. Ok, back to story. I fall asleep in lazyboy. I wake up, holy shit, gotta feed the cat. I remembered oopening the can of food, pouring it and picking up the old plate. Thats it.......... good night. I remember no more. Next morning I wake up, no more than few hours rest in.......... shes meowing. I get up, go to feed her. Man was I shitfaced. I managed to open the can of cat food, carefully turn upside down onto another can (unopened can) and let it set like a mound. That one open can of catfood poured on top of a closed stack of 2 cans of catfood.
nights like this on holiday weekends I should take note to set out 2 cans of food in the morning to MAYBE avoid the hassle first steps through the threshold of hungry pussy! or...........dont get up from the lazyboy!
ok, thats all humorous, reality for 2 secs. I love my cat I would never torture her, starve her, or treat her maliciously by any means. We all go through the days, sometimes when youre sick or something and you just dont have it in to get up. Well, that was me, cept I got up and fucked up. why? I was fucked up.
this message presented by the empty tummy fullah liquor foundation! Always there when I drink! Like allstate or something in cooperation of hug your kitty lots when youre sober across america. A nonsolicited, unknown real or not foundation I just made up............
someone takin orders for next round??!?!?!?!?
oh, one more thing. I used to love patchouli. it covered my ass livin at home, but last few inhales, oh god, someone please shoot my head off. Happened tonight. I musta looked like blubbering idiot with allergies to mohagony at the bar. My eyes welled, my nose full of snot. Horrible. cant breathe through nose, and sloth like breathes from my mouth on top of my already liquor/nicotine plagued breath. No more patchouli, please.
very special thanks to a surprise appearance of Matt from Spitfire in town. I wont say much less than the guy is a rad motherfucker! one of us drank wine. I love liquor. Cheers!
this was supposed to be 5 sentences bout cat food. You got the criterion version bitches.
