what a shitty friday! colddd and rainy! it was 50s for the past 3 days, insanity. but now it finally feels like December. i still have to work tonight so the week isnt quite over yet for me. ive been laying low at work, letting the chaos be. its not worth getting frustrated and yelling, although it has been mental torture to not speak my mind! but thats all ill speak about that. i dont want to write about that place/negative shit. this is isnt negative but i procrastinated the gym all week, feel kinda bad about that, haha. i dont know, i just couldnt drag myself outta bed. i have to kickstart the mind back into a routine and the weather definitely isnt helping! the other day, i want to say i successfully trimmed my beard! i usually never do cause im too afraid of fucking up and having to shave. i hate shaving! but it was kinda drivin me nuts with some of the stragglers so i decided to just fluff it up and take the scissors to it. nothing major. just clipped the ends and even things out. so i think i can keep doing it for the future.
oh, last week i got my New Years Suit! for those not in the area. living in Philadelphia/South Philly, theres a tradition that has been going on since, i actually really dont know how long but for at least 50 years or more. the "2 street" neighborhood as we call it is filled with bars and Mummers[the proper term for paraders] clubs on every corner. the New Years Parade we celebrate every year. there are Wenches[which i participate], Fancies[just like the name, they have floats and dancers] and String Bands, that speaks for itself. but everything is suppose to be gaudy. some say we kinda took the traditions of New Orleans, because they have been doing it for ages! but it is a big day for those that participate, the neighborhood and the whole city/tourists. we march from 2st, to city hall to be judged and every club does it "drill" and there is actually prize money for the club. the club i belong to is filled with "Wenches", men dressed up in these dressed, painted up and pretty much drinking the entire time. every Wench club has it own band that marches with them. a beer truck haha. its fun, this will be 13th year doing it. this is a pic of this years suit..theyre suppose to be making fun of "50 Shades of Grey" with "50 Shades of Green". i dont quite get it. oh i should tell you my club is called Froggy Carr so there is always something to do with frogs/green[because of the irish]
you zip this baby on, the bloomers underneath, paint your face. and we have umbrellas which go along with the type of dancing that goes on. there is a pic in my attachments of me and my friends in the morning of last years parade. i am a bit upset that i do not have contacts this year and even if i make an appointment, i wont have them in time! argh
but thats what i have to look forward to on January 1st.
ill eventually post of the aftermath!
other than that nothing else to really tell you guys. though i think i did something to my left ear. i think i may have over done my vocal practice the other day because it hasnt felt the same since. argh. feels like pressure or somethin.
actually, this week is actually a legit pay check, i should be able to afford Halo 4!! Black Ops 2 is just gonna have to wait! for those on Xbox my gamer tag is: armedANhammered
have a good weekend!
