Hey bud, let's party!

Apparently, this pic explains it all.

I'm with Sarah. Anyone who would ask me this is not party-date material. If being used by a woman I picture Myrtle Beach waitress who always sings 'Black Velvet' at karaoke.

xpost Should we ask Drew Daniel what he meant by that?

Unless you're being ironic or making reference to Andrew WK, using "party" as a verb is lame in any sentence.

the arbiter has spoken

Do it, Jamzeee.

the abattoir is smoking, the market is flush with ham.

My zit hurts.

is that slang for you having a smack habit? like a "monkey on your back"?

exactly. And satisfying your craving is known as "poppage."

Kevin, what is that from? Or did you make it up? If so, what does it mean? I like it.

(the abattoir thing)

kevin, good 2 have u back

happy early bday to Jeff, since I prolly won't be on line tomorrow to say it in a timely manner.

A dude replied to my offer to trade my guitar for a semihollowbody! I'm going to go check it out this weekend sometime, but it would look almost exactly like the red guitar I posted near the top of the thread.

In not-as-fun news, I took the practice GRE computer test and ... I am fucked. I am way too slow at the math.

Here is me specifically not wishing happy birthday to Jeff because I think he would prefer it this way.

Where is an emergency place with PCs that I can go this afternoon/evening to do the rest of the practice tests? Besides my office in Evanston?

Ditto to Jordan.

Nick, the practice tests are probably harder than the real thing. Don't sweat it!

Nick, I was wandering around near your neighborhood once and found an internet cafe, on, I don't know Damen maybe.

No, the practice test is easier because some of the questions were the same as the practice questions in the book. Plus there is basically no way to practice the writing part of the GRE so I'm stressing out about that part too.

The library in downtown Evanston.

nick, maybe you need to 'party' before the math section?

Bytes & Coffee at Barry and Broadway is a nice place, and you can buy something like 10 hours for $25 or 5 for $15.

Nick, you could go to our local library (he's at home now), but I wonder if they'd let you put a disc in...

OR MoJoe's on Belmont has a free laptop.

I don't think any library would want me putting software on their computer or using it for 1hr 15minutes. I'm wary of internet cafes but that might work I guess. I think there's one near Chicago and Damen.

there's also SCREENZ at various locations.

If you exclude internet cafes and librarys, you've pretty much talked yourself out of most examples of "an emergency place with PCs that I can go this afternoon/evening."

Eazy, I think he's trying to narrow it down to YOUR APARTMENT!

Nick, if it helps, I can walk home.

Christ, I just got sleeeeeeepy. I'm still here for another hour, too.

Do you pray virtually?

I will def need a nap before tonight.

Don't interrupt, I'm talking to Christ.

* very very quietly *
What is everyone up to tomorrow night (other than Dan & sisut [not because I don't like them but because I already know they'll be seeing the national])

Not sure yet. I really need to pack this weekend, so I imagine I'll be doing that for much of the day, but I don't have plans for later.

Packing for what?

Oh yeah! The new place! DUH!

I just want everybody to know that the job offer that I got on Thursday? The one where they didn't tell me what the salary/bennies would be but still expected me to make a decision right there on the phone and I said I need until Monday? Well they still haven't told me what the salary/bennies would be.

W. T. F.

John, maybe Christ knows. Ask him for me.

Also, tomorrow is Jeff's birthday so we're going to have dinner and then probably just stay in and watch a movie. Low key celebration. Sunday we're going to the last Cubs home game of the season.

Just tell them "if I don't know what the cheddar gonna be, bitch, then how'm I supposed to know if I want the job?"

Just tell them "you wouldn't really want a labor lawyer who didn't find out about the terms before taking a job, right?"

lol that's almost exactly what I told her, I even said cheddar

That is seriously fucked up, that alone would make me not want to take the job.

Actually I'm pretty sure I didn't find that stuff out until after I took this job, but I was confident it would be decent and if I'd had the balls to ask they probably would have told me.

I sent a very nice email that said, basically, I can't make a decision if you don't tell me this information, and have received no reply.

There's no reply at all.
No reply at all.

I get the feeling you're tryin to tell me.
Is there something that I should know?
What excuse are you trying to sell me?
Should I be reading stop or go? I don't know!

Is anybody listening?

Hi dere!
