alright, i'm off to the meridian for a salad and maybe a drink or 2 before bowling time.

hand still hurts a little from sunday's bowling, but my scores are improving a small bit from where they were when i first switched to the spin style last week.

no new random kisses from strangers, but i did get a crazy phone call yesterday from my...

i suggest conquering asia with the amazon. that sounds like a film dying to be made, as well. at least until april, when all the ice melts over here.

trying to think of something all clever to say and whatnot, but i don't think it's going to happen.

started reading "A Confedaracy of Dunces" by John Kennedy Toole this weekend. pretty funny stuff. the weirdest thing about it was, saturday night while i'm sitting at the meridian enjoying some whiskey with some friends, this random girl i don't know gets up from her seat...

didn't manage to meet up with any of the regulars last night. ended up at the meridian room, and just when i was ready to walk out to try to track down deadite, some friends rolled in that i hadn't seen much of lately, so i ended up staying and drinking with them for a while. split before closing (abnormal and a little amazing), caught...

ran some errands, washed the car, did some laundry. pretty productive saturday, i guess. not sure what's on the agenda for tonight, there's a couple shows i wouldn't mind seeing but i'm not really in the mood for live music right now. maybe that'll change later, it's not quite 6pm yet anyway.

alright. It looks like we are headed to the forbidden gallery. I completely forgot about the Tim Biskup opening tonight. He's along the same lines as Shag, real cool stuff. I think we are headed there around 9. Give a call if you need more details. I'm sure there will be plenty of free beer, then if we're still up to it, we can head back here and have the jukebox party. 214-826-8833.

i totally suck, because i have never seen bowie live. my best friend in D was gonna come up here to see him with me, but alas it all fell thru, and the show was in some dumb suburb and i didn't know how the hell to get there.

low is fucking rad, even though some songs sound like 70's alien porn

i love the fact that i can pay damn near all my bills online. it makes life so much easier.

today i get to meet the ex for lunch to decide how to split up our stuff in the divorce. i predict that she'll spend at least half the conversation trying to guilt-trip me into patching things up.

it's great, she likes to blame this...

oh yeah, and Andrew (Spanish Fly of Los Diablos Guapos) is a chum. last summer they had some wild ass parties at the Timber Lanes. Booty rap, Mickey's big mouths, bowling, booty clap contests, scantily clad, sweaty people. what a great time.

chicago. it's chock full of bars. and meat.
dollface:
well hell, tell miss coleman and her fella that i say HEY!

i was the black-haired girl in the cat-eye glasses with pink lenses. i completely blanked on what i had said on camera until i saw the film. it was hilarious to see my head projected that large!

who is your best friend in chicago? this town is big, but small. i can't go anywhere anonymously.

dammit, bowled like shit. 82 avg on the night, out of 4 games. ludicrous. 3 weeks ago i rolled a 162.

maybe it's cuz i wasn't drinking. i only had 1 glass of vodka at the lanes. next time i gotta work on my 3-drink buzz instead of my bowling technique.

divorce almost final. wife found an apartment, i think she's going to start moving...

shit, man. something needs to happen. i feel like i'm in a big rut, even though i'm kinda not. i think i need a sudden, major change of some sort.

or maybe this is just how boring life is when it's not completely collapsing around you like mine has for the last 2 years.

for those that haven't heard the story at the bar or...

last night, bowlin. pretty hot rounds, jab got 5 X's in a row to pull a 164, i rolled a 162, and thirsty rolled a 170-something. me and jab both rolled a 10th-frame turkey, and i almost had a second one (X-X-8), and ermey almost got one too (X-X-9).

i think vodka is my new bowling drink.
thirsty:
