Well, last friday turned out to be quite the time. Show up to the Dise with $15 to my name. Order a drink, and the next thing I know my friend gets me a Stoli dirty martini to go with it. After that it was a pitcher of beer, a "Justin bomb" (shot of Jager, carbomb chaser), another pitcher and another Justin bomb, all on an empty stomach. Needles to say, I ended up puking for the first time in about 5 years....but I do love my friends. They never fail to get a buddy drunk for his birthday, and that was the finest form that I've been in for a loooong time. Was quite fun up until we got back to my friend's place and I had to sit...man did that room spin.
Other than that, life has become rather frugal. My ex's refusal to pay any bills has caught up to me, and I am forced to pretty much live paycheck to paycheck, essentially broke now for the foeseeable future. My lawyer tells me that eventually she should have to pay me back 50% of what she's refusing at the moment, but that's several months off and in the meantime it sucks to be poor. Not much to do but bear with it though. Just sucks that I dont even have the funds to buy myself a new CD.
I havent been in chat too much lately, as most of my friends from there have started to go missing. Where the hell are you guys? go in from time to time, but it gets rather boring not having anyone to talk to.
Other than that, I have connected with a good friend from several years ago, and am happy to find her in a much better place then when we stopped talking. Right now she's an aspiring musician up in minneapolis and it's nice to talk to someone who is both intellectual and funny. Talking to her definitely lifts my spirits, and it's nice to have someone to be able to talk music with. I gotta say tho, talking to her also makes me a bit lonely, as it makes me miss the college days. I had some good friends in the dorm that I was able to talk to in the same way, and they also would come lay with me at night when we both needed someone to just be next to at night. I guess I miss that. It was always nice to just have a sleeping buddy, and that would definitely go a long way to making me feel better right now. Someone to spoon with would be the perfect solution to take the edge off. any takers?
Anyway, off to enjoy this belly full of toppers stix and spotted cow. Some good tunes and a book to pass the night away.

Glad you had a blast on your birthday but the news about the ex's adamant behavior is rather troubling. I hope that things improve swiftly (both financially and lonely-wise).
I've been in chat here and there but not as much- starting today, I'm aiming to write one song a day for the rest of the month..and chat doesn't help! Hahaha.
Talk to you soon buddy,
James
Best of wishes for things to get better. I think it's my quote of the day to all my friends, "If I could snap my fingers and make things better for you I would." *snap* *snap* Are things better yet?
