So I'm walking down Franklin in Hollywood, passing this sort of empty, weed-overgrown fenced-off lot when I spy a record player that's been abandoned to the elements. Now, normally, I'd have passed on by, as I have a perfectly good record player of my own, thank you very much, and this one is probably not in working condition or it wouldn't have been abandoned to...

Update:
Still alive.
Laptop died, was sent off to Apple repair, and returned resurrected with 13 days left on my 3-year warranty.
Been dating a girl for a few weeks or something. Not sure if she counts as a "girlfriend." Not all that excited about her, but not really sure why. She's pretty and fun and cool and interesting, but Something is just missing. Then...

i think the new format has something to do with it,also i think the site itself has sort of become gentrified....hasnt got that underground community vibe anymore,its more conglomerate(some would say that happened ages ago)...but yeah there was a definate down swing with the new format

You'll be most welcome - we miss you man 
I had a rare weekend night off this past week, so I made the most of it: I had a date Friday night!
We went for Indian food, got completely stuffed, then went to a show. Deadbolt, Speedbuggy (who are about to head off on a big European tour), and Custom Made Scare played, and it fucking ripped! Seriously, all 3 bands were fucking...

my new home = future wine pit stop
You know a cop is drunk when he keeps trying to buy you shots that you keep refusing on grounds that you've had enough and need to drive home. Anyways....

naaaa, DOWC is really hard to get hold of over here. i've been desperate to see it for years, but never got a chance.
until tuesday.
and i'm gonna go see it again tomorrow, then hopefully see part 2 as well for a laugh!
seems DOWC is coming out on DVD soon - can't wait.
btw - i'd heard of Fear, but never actually heard them before. fucking excellent!!

So since that last entry, I've cut way back on the booze intake, for a couple reasons.
One is, it's just no good when your activities outside of work adversely affect your ability to work. In other words, if you can't pay, don't play.
But the more serious one is, that night and another night a couple days before, I had close calls with having...

i went to the 6-5 and 14-3. i could live with the 6-5, i enjoyed that game, it came down to the last out. the 4-3 game sucked ass!!! and the fact that they got swept sucked too. and staying in newark was a mistake, but oh well, it was still and alright trip.
fanny:
Thanks!
It was a total riot of course!

Wow, talk about a late one!
I got home around noon yesterday after drinking all night, to pass out and wake up an hour late for work. Not my finest moment.
There was, though, some drunken snogging involved, which is always fun ... except I barely remember it.
But I broke my own rule -- waking up late for work is a Bad Thing. I...

"snog" is by far one of my favorite british colloquials.
So my one major complaint about the new site design has been fixed! I no longer see advertisements for crap I have no interest in on a site I'm paying money to use!
In other news....
Nah, not so much going on, just working a lot. Spent Tuesday running around for a friend's birthday; there was much beer, sushi, sake, and a little bowling. Then...

i think you just miss an excuse to get caned.
Will be out your way for Warped tour dates in a couple of weeks, you likely to be at any? I have all my fingers fortunately, had a nice gouge in my palm for a bit but just a stigmata like scar remains now.

Huzzah for free booze!
Yesterday was FULL of it
It started with a wine and cheese tasting at one swanky hotel in Beverly Hills, which was supposed to be $45/person, but we got comped in, as knowing the right people is a good thing. It quickly turned from a tasting to a swilling, and we left full of cheese and feeling rosey.
Then we popped...

Well, Monday started off slow, but ramped up quick when I started doing tequila shots at 5.30 before going to a metal club in Hollywood later, with a bunch of friends from the bar. From what I remember, that ended with my friends pulling me out because I wanted to start a fight with this certain celebrity who I thought was hitting on my friend's...

So far, so good!
Friday started out mellow, which I very much needed, by way of me sitting at a laundry/cafe place washing all my clothes and linens and having a sandwich and tea. A friend popped in for a bit to chat, but mostly I sat there and read and relaxed.

unnamed. spill it bitch send me a pm
well, from what i have researched, hold off on food and water for about three hours before departure. if she's calm enough at rest stops, i can take her out of her carrier and let her try to do her thing...i suspect she'll be too freaked out at first to want to do anything. i'm going to buy her some "kitty calm" herbs too so she can be mellow. i'm also propping her carrier up so she can see out the window...with a seatbelt on, of course. i've already started getting Nina used to hanging around the carrier. i won't be able to travel for longer than about 8 hours at a time, but i don't really mind. i have plenty of time to get there and i want to take lots of photos on the way.
very soon, we'll be having a pint!
i tried to buy a 1/4 barrel of Bitburger for my party on tuesday, but looks like I'll have to do Goose Island 312. it's "chicagoey". i couldn't deal with Old Style. I'm making red and white sangria, guacamole, veggie empanadas, and grilling veggie burgers and turkey sausage. i haven't had a party in ages! i'm so excited!
i think we should hit Neptune's Net ASAP. I'll drive!
