Blarg! My fucking boss changed the schedule mid week, and now I have to work every day until Thursday of next week. That makes twelve days ina row that I work without a day off. What makes this even more than complete and utter bullshit is the fact that, since I no longer have three days off this week, I can no longer restretch my...

Today was lame. I woke up with a hangover, as I do fairly often, but today's was worse; two nights in a row of drinking without much sleep each followed by a full shift at work does not equal a better, fitter Dave.
Anyway, so upon my return from work I ate, took a nap for a few hours, and then woke up and did...

yeah, this seems to have been a big lunar party eclipse weekend for many. my weekend turned into this bizarre, Bukowski-esque week of twilight sleep and home-made wine.
August 28, 2004: Night of the bizarre phonecalls.
Last night I went to this party down in Little Five Points. It wasn't particularly interesting. I had one beer, then the keg floated. So I had one glass of punch (punch conspicuously missing any hunch, I might add) and then it ran out. The only real excitment came from some moron attempting to call Ronnie a...

Just say 'NO' to girls!

If iTunes had it, I'd invest this gift certificate in that. Sounds like something I'd like. I'll definitely check it out, thanks.
I just spent nearly an enire party talking to my roommate's ex. This is not quite as retarded as it sounds, as she is one awesome chick. I am quite the drunk, and I am going to bed.
Oh yeah, and my cat is now 100% testicle free.

Yesterday I had to take the diagnostic test in Reporting. It was about fifty questions long, and full of "find the sentence without a grammatical error" type questions. I finished in about five minutes. I think that class will be easier than I previously thought.

Your country band would rule so many more asses if you convinced your black friend to wear hip-hop clothes and your Japanese friend to wear a karate gi.
kestrel:
Wow, that sounds like the coolest band in the world.
Sittin' in my room, reading what passes nowadays for a letter from a distant friend, and listening to Johnny Cash. Time for a fuckin' drink.
And, in others news, I'm in trouble. I've thus far regulated myself to tattoos above the elbows because I'm about the farthest from having a secure career as you can get. So I was doing my usual sketching for the...

I find that the easiest way to fight off the tattoo itch is to get rid of all your money. It's worked like a charm for me.
libertylux:
It depends on where you work and what you do. Sometimes you can talk the idea through with your manager to see what you can do that might *not* relegate you to long sleeve land.
My first day of class went well. None of my classes seem too tough. I do have a lot of work to do though, but it's mostly writing, so it isn't that bad. The best class I have is my Literary Criticism class. Why? Well, in a class of 35, there are only three males, myself included. So, in other words, I get to spend...

I was so terrified of my History of LIterary Criticism prof that I couldn't even bring myself to go to the final two lectures in that program.
He was a lot less scary when I met him again a few years ago when he and I were in different bands sharing the stage at a benefit concert. (And he did really start easing up on me in class when he found out I was a guitarist, too.)
He was less scary again when I found out that he was a friend of my gf's family, and that her younger sister once picked him up and spun him around.
I'd kill for a photo of that moment.
And I've often described the ratio of girls to guys in most of my classes as 30:me.
Those were good times.

Saturday night our estranged resident Canadian friend Kate actually came and hung out. She's been home all summer, and this was the first time she actually left the house. We tried to wrangle up something interesting, since it was the last Saturday of summer and all, but it wasn't to be. So, instead, we just went to Bamboo Luau (again) and got to' up and...

That was your FIRST Venture Bros. episode?! We need to remedy that.

How was school?
Last night Flux and I, as well as a few friends, were supposed to go see Blondie play in Centennial Park downtown. Unfortunately, Jesus decided that there would be way too much shaking of the hips goin' on, so he spit out a hell of a rainstorm right on top of us. So, instead of Blondie, we all went to Bamboo Luau and got to'...

Hey, I know you!
School soon? Today? Mine's today.
Lots of luck and fun for you!

Exactly. I think morning should be illegal.
I went down to school today to check on just how much money I have to pay the library before they will let me register. One hundred and five dollars. Damn.
Also, I saw Garden State tonight. It was fucking awesome. And I think I need to start a flaming air archery league.

No, I liked this one better: "Don't tease me about my hobbies; I don't tease you about being an asshole."
I need to see this movie again to quote correctly.

So, I'm at work yesterday and my buddy Mike calls me up. "Dave," he says, "remember Michelle's roommate, the lesbian? Well, she is no longer a lesbian and, when you were brought up in conversation, she said that she wanted you to ask her out because she thought you were cute. So, you should come to Athens tonight and hang out with us." Now, from...

Yeah, on Saturday we ALMOST went to this "cool" place. 
I was actually dreading the bill at that dinner and was relieved when I got out of there for $100.
I hear you may be comin' out with a certain lady later in the year. IF school doesn't fuck everything up. Just drop out you selfish prick!

We won't be going to a place like that. But we WILL be at a place with more women, and beer.
SO much beer.

Oh my god. This semester is going to be amazing. Look at this list of shows:
September 4: A Small Victory's CD release party with Cartel. This will be awesome because all the ATL kids will be there to dick around with our rockstar friends.
September 30: Converge and Cave In. Holy crap, two of the best hardcore bands ever are on the same bill....

I'm in total agreement with Mr. Z. Except he forgot to mention Kid 'n' Play, which if you think about it is quite the oversight indeed.
unnecessaryz:
Shit! I did forget Kid 'n' Play. I've got nothing. Nothing that Big Daddy Kane didn't have from his roles in Posse and Gunmen anyway. Boo-ya!
2. That sucks. Keep in touch, though. I'm itching for a trip to the shop.
3. WUV OOOO.
