What a spoiled little turd I am. I bought Sirius radio for my brother...he bought it for me...THEN, I open another present. My parents bought me every component for Sirius and a lifetime membership. Cool, no monthly fees forevah! So I'm diggin' it. Plus, I'll get Howard Stern next year. Which reminds me...did I ever tell you the story of how I won a trip to New York?? No? Sit down...err..get a beer.
I'm doing trash pick up at work one morning.
Break for explanation.
Trash pick up is a routine, everyfuckingday thing groundskeepers do. We empty around 30 garbage cans each for a junior college. Yes, we find the nasty shit. Porn, toys, money, you can imagine. So I demanded sharp proof gloves...cuz there's a few needles in there sometimes. Yikes.
Anyway. I hear my name on the radio (mispronounced) so it's gotta be me. I call the radio station, yeah...you won dude.
So I got a flight to NY days before 9/11. Got delayed on the runway in NY which caused me to miss my David Letterman show GOLD TICKETS! This gift from nowhere came AFTER I won the trip, so I was reeling...until we missed it, then, I was just pissed. So I was escorted to the studio, sat with Bababooey and Cabbie. Went to a Yankee game in the CBS skybox..free food and booze with Gary. Went to Scores with the Earthlink people and got dances..and very drunk. Sam Adams at Scores is $9 a bottle...crazy.
My dear friend Kelly Anne took us to Coney Island the next day. Good times indeed. I heart New York.

I go to NY with one of my good friends. We stay at another friends place in upstate. The first two days we go and work at a strip club in Queens called Wiggles. I make like 500 dollars, so I want to go do stuff. She meets this boy at the club that I dragged her out too, and she's instantly in "love". Well, needless to say I get ditched in NY. They go and get a carriage ride through the park ect... I stayed at the hotel and watched cheesy porn (which was the only station that would come in) for a few hours. Finally, I drift off to sleep and they come in. They had gone for food...man was I hungry.... and ran about. I was pissed to say the least, since she dragged me there with her to "hang out". So, they start fucking in the next bed, and I was so over the porn for the night, so I took off and roamed around NY at like 4 in the morning. I met some homeless guy playing his guitar and sat out in the cold with him singing to keep warm. I bought him a hot dog and he told me his story. I love to hear people's stories. Then, I bump into this punk rock kid who turned out to be pretty cool. We bought some beer and sat in the subway drinking it until like 8am, by which time I was utterly lost in NY and had no idea where my hotel was. So, I decided to just walk around until I could find something to do. I had breakfast at some cheesy place that probably had bugs... spent like 10 hours in the Natural History Museum, went to Madame Tussuads Wax Museum, bought hot dogs from like 10 different vender's just to see if they would taste different, walked through the park alone in the dark.... I did not get mugged, though by that time people were probably afraid I'd mug them. Then, I finally gave up and got a cab to five different hotels until I found the right one. I get there and the room is no longer paid for. She checked out, went back to my friends house with all of our stuff, and left me to wander around NY. Well, I took the train back up, listened to how much she was in love, fell asleep and flew home the next day. Was I mad at her, nope. I had a great time all by myself, which is how it usually goes.
