Well, I'm up early 
I opted to hit the sack around midnight and get up at 9 to study for my exam, which is at 2. It's now 9.40 and I haven't started studying yet -- but I have been doing other productive things -- I downloaded, printed, and filled out the form I have to send in to get health insurance through school (yay!),...

So last night, as I'm leaving the bar at closing time (having gotten off work at midnight, it was now 4am), these guys stop me:
"Hey man, we're out here trying to promote our band, you want a CD?"
Now, these guys don't look like dipshits, they look like real Rock & Roll Musicians, so I accepted the CD and asked:
"Where are you...

The 2 most amusing links I've been sent today:
some silly playboy striptease thing
Super Model Meat (also silly)
School's going fine so far. Have my first test Tuesday, in my Sanitation class.
Not so much kitchen work so far, but supposedly that picks up next week, when we start learning the correct ways to cut things.

Well, it's 0 degrees out, with a wind chill of -21.
That's some cold shit, gang.
I'm off to day 2 of school.

good luck with class, maybe they'll let you fry an egg today.. 
Well, the girl and I split up. We're more or less on good terms (I guess) and will probably still hang out and stuff, but it seems to be officially over.
My fault, really. I wasn't ready to get involved with someone, plus I had too much interest into whatever it is that I have with Cannon Girl -- recipe for disaster. Made my bed,...

So much to tell, really ... how much to share?
Well, out in LA I did a lot of fucking around with my boy Henry, including some off-shore fishing and a helluva lot of partying. We accidentally crashed a private party at some club in Hollywood ... the Osbourne kids were there, which was kind of funny to me.

Hey, dude. Sorry for the lack of communication. I've been hella busy this week and my Mom is getting married on Saturday and etc, etc. I don't know if we'll get together this time, but I should be back before too long. I take it SG Chicago bowling doesn't happen regularly anymore?
illbillzillbub:
yikes!!
Alright, I guess I should update this shit; it's been a couple weeks.
Just got in from my last travel hoorah before starting school next week. After the 5 days in LA, I was back here for about 2 days before spending 10 days in Texas, roughly evenly split between Dallas and San Antonio. Did a lot of thinking while I was out there .......

Dood.
The problem is you no longer have those famous dreads - and not only do I have to remember your SG moniker but also your real world name.
I suck.

Still in LA
Last night, went to a party at Bob's house. Weird stuff, mostly movie industry types, but not like the big-wigs or anything -- more like the working class of movies: indie directors and producers, set designers, stuff like that. Cool people, had a lot of fun and drank way too much.
For those of you that remember my ravings about Cannon Girl...

Hey, I saw your post in obelisk's journal asking why the locals call Portland PDX. It's the airport code for Portland International Airport, PDX.
Anyway's that is all, over and out.

Update from LA:
Got in yesterday, bought a new black suede jacket, had a nice steak dinner, had some drinks, crashed relatively early because:
Got up at 5am this morning to go fishing off the coast. We were out on the water from 7.30-noon, and caught jack shit. I caught a stingray, and Bob caught an angel shark, but Henry and Max caught nothing --...

Tomorrow morning, I jet off to LA for a few days. No real plans, just heading out to see what kind of adventures pop up ....
navin:
i haven't been to LA for a few years... although i'll be hitting OC for xmas in a couple of weeks... always trips me out being down there during the xmas holidays, sure as hell don't feel like Christmas with all the palm trees... although i usually get to play golf... that's pretty rad
have fun!
have fun!
Tomorrow night (Sat, 12/6) I'm spinning rock & roll at NOLA's, a cajun seafood joint here in the neighborhood.
This could be hilarious / tragic -- I haven't spun in years.
You should all come!

Stale ...
I'm becoming disenfranchised with looking at websites all day -- it just doesn't hold the fascination that it once did.
Soon, anyway, I'll have school occupying my time, and hopefully a band as well, and maybe even a job! Well, if I go look for one, that is. Hrmm...
My world feels weird today -- how's yours?
