Yarrrrgh!

I recently took a long weekend vacation back to the SouthEast. I flew into Washington D.C. where I got to see Megz, Georgetown, the Air & Space Museum, and some other notable scenes. Then we drove to Greenville where I got to see some more long lost friends and had some long lost fun. Notable events were Finelli's crabmeat lasagna, late-night Krispy Kreme, Bella the baby eating hound, and many others. I also went to an ECU football game and they actually won, and they actually don't have a losing record. Its like freshman year all over again, except James Pinkey is no David Garrard that's for sure. After that it was back to Washington D.C. for a brief time until my early flight back.

This trip definitely solidified my distaste of Greenville. The only reason I would ever go back is to go to a football game. Soon whats left of my friends there will be gone, and so will my motivation for ever stepping foot into the city limits again. Shannon told me, "Don't be one of those guys that moves to a better place and then talks about how much better it is." Too late.

Suki Suki...Me Love Music Long Time

On my way to the (fantastic as always) Mike Doughty show the other night I decided to grab some grubbage before the show. I found some random Chinese place to get some Kung Pao Chicken. On my way out of the restaurant to see one of my favorite musicians do his thing, I opened my fortune cookie. Very appropriately to the situation my fortune said, "Your love of music will be an important part of your life." Very Cool.

Oh, and "Shui-guo" means "Fruit" in Chinese.

Without My Manhood

This weekend I wasn't able to watch even one single minute of football. Fuckin' job.

Go Bears! I hear you're doing awesome!

...smells like dead people

Back in the day my style of humor was offensive and outrageous. Now that I'm in the "grown up world", and I don't have my offensive and outrageous friends around me I'm starting to really miss it. I yearn for opportunities to use the developed skills I know to make one half of a room shocked, offended, and disgusted, while making the other half laugh. Instead I've taken up being cheesy because that too makes me laugh. Not at much as the other though.

As an example, I was walking down the street and had just passed a homeless guy rambling to himself and he then hocked (sp?) a big ass loogie and then yelled out in both a high-pitched and raspy voice "Godamnit!" I thought it was hilarious, but most people (those that suck) wouldn't.
