Your Boring Saturday Night

No, $5.50 if you count the Doritos.

washed bathroom mat, watched football, ate some nachos, listened to street hassle and some house records, watched iggy pop videos marathon. terrible.

hmmm... saturday night was obligatory eastside hipster rock show. sunday night had more going on: john lautner exhibit at the hammer, jeffersons and criminal intent reruns, meatball pizza and root beer.

took my wife to el portal in pasadena, kind of a souped-up acapulco. margaritas were pretty good. stayed up with baby almost all night.

we have to have a margarita party before the summer's out.

yeah i just said as much on the grouplist. do any of us have a yard? lol

ugggh, bailed on my ride to east hampton for the hugo boss / interview magazine party, played neverwinter nights 2 instead and went to a bar with a friend and had a root beer and a cheese plate instead (gres de vosges, la serena, humboldt fog).. sucks

bailed on my ride to east hampton

that was a mistake. glorious weather this past weekend!

i stayed up too late on friday to go to amagansett :(

that was a mistake. glorious weather this past weekend!
but i made it to level 5 rogue!!!

fucccck, i should have gone....

pp at poker night and kid asleep so I ended up sitting in CHATZ for about two hours saying not much at all while IMing brother-in-law in LosA and ex-boyfriends brother in Chicago. later watched 2 tivoed eps of the bold and the beautiful while eating coco krispies 4 dinner.

everyone I know is busy tonight. bleh.

pizza beer and movies alone.

i just moved to a "new" city and don't have that many friends. so yeah, i guess it's gonna be beers and maybe another viewing of TDK.

:(

also, no internetz (currently at parents' house)

My dumb ass agreed to help out at the bar again tonight. No fair asking me at 3am after four rounds of staff Jaegerbombs.

dude at least you'll be interacting with people.

We moved yesterday and woke up to major drama (huge leak dripping into our flat from the neighbor above who is out of town, bldg mgr out of town, etc etc etc, lock drilled out, problem contained and cleaned up by us, welcome to the building!), so a boring night getting liquored up at home watching dvds would be great. If we could find all the cables and necessary remotes. And, some glasses. But we also are going to the housewarming of friends and will be boring by leaving early.

sushi dinner w/wife's old friend & her husband. they're musicheads (+) and non-drinkers (-).

not in my most social mood tonite, but at least I'll be interacting with adults. so about 6 out of 10.

Waiting for a bus that's 16 min late atm. This is after I ran after the previous one which neglected to stop for me :(

Yikes!

I'm making cookies and then I'm going to watch a movie.

Mowed the yard, showered, thinking about a tomato sandwich or two, and a beer or two.

a tomato sandwich

Had the best fresh tomato sammy yesterday - toasted italian bread, some olive tapenade, thick sliced heritage tomatoes, thick slices of fresh mozzarella. Totally yum.

Okay, back to boringness.

slept until 3PM, cashed a $5000 check then cooked fried chicken, then walked the dog to the supermarket, then a 1 hr bike ride, then beer and bourbon time, ran out of beer, rode bike to beer store for 2 24 oz. Sierra Nevadas, had 1 Sierra Nevada with intermittent shots of bourbon, took photos of things in the house placed next to other things, fucked wife, cooked a frozen pizza, watching American women play a beach volleyball match against Japanese women on The Olympics™, gonna ride bike more tomorrow A.M., it sucks that Bernie Mac died

^^^ good day

it was and there's been a string of those lately with the exception of last night which was fuckin horrible. hope you make some new friends in your new town gbx~

start a band on craigslist or something

slept til 2, paid the state half my paycheck, did the budget and realized i'm in the red for at least the next month, went to work, found out the one coworker i like is quitting to move back home, goin home tonight to drink warm white wine and watch fistful of dollars

gbx: i understand where you're at, man. do you have a local alt weekly? when i first moved here i found people by going to regular events listed in the austin chronicle. that helped me get out of the house and meet new people with similar interests. some of those people turned into friends. as corny as it sounds, ilx was a big help too. "internet friends"

"internet friends" can be just as good at listening and getting excited about records and talkin shit about movies as "real friends."

except not really

i'm just playin actually i have made good internet friends, all the best to gbx and HOOS aka the friendmaker

going out dancing.

Internet played up because of shitty weather. Watched Broken Flowers. Slept. Pretty much par for the course.

grilled some shishito peppers, unpacked some shit from boxes/bags that i got out of my storage space, listened to the puerto rican bar across the street blast some freestyle and classic house, watched a catfight involving a baby mama, a wife, and a babyless mistress, sorted thru some clothes, about to pop a japanese "relaxation" pill. FUNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Watching Olympics

watched half of sweet movie, half of that horrible 90s version of the odyssey. went to a fancy bar/restaurant at midnight to find food and drunnk texted my ex about how their grilled cheese wasn't all that.

Drunk texting...
tut tut!

Half of me is glad i lost all my numbers in my phone!

gf's on vacation.

sittin at home w/drink, avoiding chores, listening to fucked up sad records.

god it's depressing how i basically collapse and lose all personality when she's not around

go sit on the roof for a bit. it always helps.

got back to the train station at 10 to find my bike stolen.

got stoned and played with some lego i found while looking for the receipt that had my bikes' serial number on it.

and drank lots of gin. and read a bit.

woo.

overdosed on BBQ spare ribs baked beans & red wine

as in eating & drinking too much out of boredom (but it was good going down)

no one wants to go out. i am antsy. wtf.

i'm v tired. why don't i go to bed?

I called my friends up and they said they couldn't hang out ... because they were "going out with their friends." >:{

added torture: i thought the liquor store closed at 10 but at 5 to 11 i found out it closes at 11. too late to get there in time. but aside from that, i don't want to drink at home alone. i want to go out!!

kid didn't take a nap so he went to sleep an hour early. at 8:15 this somehow just makes me MORE tired. I have so much contract work to do I can't even start. bleached everything in the bathroom. maybe i'll play guitar for a while. wife is falling asleep in bed watching tv.

watching the red sox, now in the 11th inning. have a sleeping baby on top of me. when the sox do something good i have to cheer very quietly.

I bailed on hanging out with people (sorry tza!) because I was "too tired" to hang out after not sleeping last night and then spending all day with my mom in manhattan. I watched Death Proof :) and now I am still not sleepy and plan on watching Indy 4.
