For some reason I feel like this is mostly for Wayne B.
That reason is probably the fact that he reminds me of one of the main guys in this clip.
I'm two minutes away from needing to be at work. I went to a 'punk rock prom' at the duckpin bowling alley (your character's 'scene points' increases by 12. advance to the next level.) That was followed by a late night tour of hollywood cemetery and sleep came at 5am.
Tomorrow I work from 5pm to 5am, as my first night of training to be a bartender begins when my serving shift ends. Unless I get a shift covered next week, I will be working from 10am(sat)-5am(sun). On my feet working, not sitting working.
I'm also going to the gym in between shifts now instead of taking a nap.
I am a machine. I run on pure awesome.

texts to the wrong number, drunk texts, etc. I love it.
(212): i want you now
(916): you need to stop dating girls with the same name as your mother...or stop drinking so much...I don't want to see this
(913): I hope I'm pregnant just to spite you.
(202): I tried to gradually lead her into my room but she wouldn't stop crying and quoting memoirs of a geisha
(801): see... this is why i put birth control in all my friends drinks
(1-801): wait.... you do what?
you have to dig through a mountain of gross to get a few pieces of gold, but if you're bored go for it.
I apologize for the hiatus. I have plenty of excuses, i promise. I basically gave up on the internet to pursue/maintain real life, new relationships, etc. I didn't realize how long it had been until facebook sent me a message saying that I had 20 friend requests and 52 messages (?!) and that i should 'come back'. Oh internet, I could never leave you. I really only decided to post today because i have the morning off and I'm already sitting at the computer listening to an advance of the new Pelican album.
Last night I went to The Silent Music Revival at Gallery 5 in Richmond. It's an ongoing event where a band plays behind a screen showing an old silent film. The band last night was Autocue, which were better than expected and matched up really well with silent films about workers rights/child labor.
This morning I woke up early and started the day with a half hour meditation session, which is better than the half assed 10 minutes i've been putting in lately. I feel re energized and with a replaced focus on life. Today I'll ride my bike downtown to the gym, maybe stop by the coffee shop, and ride back home with enough time to shower before work.
I just watched a documentary called 'A life of my choice' about the travel writer Sir Wilfred Thesiger who traveled around north africa/the middle east. He passed away in 2003, but he lived one of the most romantic lives with a real sense of adventure. With the exception of his love of big game hunting and the quote "the worst thing to happen in human history was the invention of the combustible engine", i could really identify with everything he said.
Sometimes we pour our hearts into things that don't work out and I think it's easy to get jaded and cynical about life and human beings in general, but I realize that it's a life of my choice. If there's anything in life that I'm not satisfied with it's up to me to change it. I'm a bullet proof tiger with the mind of a champion and a back strong enough to build empires on.
