HES BACK FROM THE DEAD,
WITH THE SHAVED HEAD House of Pain/Fine Malt Lyrics.
Thats probably the only hip hop album I can recite from start to finish- like all ex-metal heads who found groovy comfort with the Irish trio.
So- can you kids guess what I did yesterday?
Ill give you a few clues:
1. It was quite daring and spontaneous,
2. Ive Never, EVER done it before!
3. It felt SOOOOOOOO Good!
Well?
Okay- are you ready?
You should probably sit down for this-
I totally ditched work.
Do you still like me?
Good!
Well, its not that Im such a good boy, its more that I never give myself any slack when it comes to certain responsibilities.
But man- I just couldnt- couldnt go to work yesterday.
I was sitting on the Q train that I take every morning- en route to the L train which takes me to the B57 bus, and then a short walk to another routine day of coffee, stress, uncomfortable chair and desk, SG, strongbad, emails, phone calls and some staring at the window. Oh yeah- some work too.
But I couldnt.
So I just stayed on the train and kept going till we reached the last stop which is in convenient proximity to the park!
Had coffee+muffin in a touristy caf, and didnt even mind the otherwise annoying crowd from outta town
Then off to the park- Sat down on a rock and watched the lawn change colors with the clouds movement. Nice. I havent been to nature in almost 3 years. Im not a big hippie- but thats unacceptable.
From there over to the internet caf where this site doesnt come up cause its porn (?!?), then to a vintage drum shop where Nodar the drum guru resides to discuss some alterations for my new kit. (its a 1969 and I bought it from the original owner!)
Then off to K-Mart to do Mens Laundry (ie- bought new boxer shorts + socks.) and get a sleeping bag so I can sleep in my practice space and stay x-tra late to work on my chops!
Then a great lunch with a good friend- had a chicken cutlet with mashed potatoes and cole slaw. My Mom makes this meal for me so I like it a lot!
Nice practice session, Yoga class, spliff and sleep.
A boring read? Maybe, but a very fine fun-day indeed!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In other news- Im not too happy about how big this place is becoming.
Yup- story of my life- I find something cool that no one knows about, and all of a sudden its featured on some magazine, and some tv show, and then some rockstars join
And all of a sudden its creeping with too many people.
At the same time Im happy for Sean- hes a good guy and deserves this success, but Im not sure about everything else.
I was thinking about this recently- after some other oldskoolers left for the same reasons- and realized that I never did like everything or everybody on the site, which is fine! Its just like the real world- I dislike much of it, but am happy with my few little corners.
Well- this is one of them- Im happy here, and Im happy about all you weirdos in my friends list! (said with mych love yo
)
Ok- gotta go now, and I cant think of a homework assignment for yous guys
Hopefully Ill have one tomorrow-
Bye!
