Seeing: A pimped out Mercury Sable Wagon
Hearing: Duncan Sheik -- Barely Breathing
Touching: Clean water bottles
Tasting: English muffins with peanut butter and jelly
Thinking:
Thats right, you heard me. On the way to werk today I saw a pimped out
Mercury Sable WAGON on the highway. I mean, it had the spoiler and the
groundwerk and everything, I'd be impressed if it had a kick ass stero
system in it too, that'd be more than amusing. Speaking of stereos, we
were on our way to Buzz on friday,
and it was really slow, like traffic always is around that place on
friday nights, and I managed to catch a glimpse of first someone who
drove to Buzz in an open sided Jeep Wrangler, and on top of that had a
pretty nice stereo in it, with the face still attached...now that's just
asking for trouble. But nevertheless, we had a good time at Buzz,
especially since the entire night cost me a mere 5 dollars. Emily paid
for my admission and half of the parking fees, and hell, I got to see
Madonna. Or at least I thought so. Richard HumptyVision rocked my ass, I
mean seriously, if I ever sinned by saying hard house was just
"okay," then I paid for it friday night..the music was awesome, the hard
house anthems kept comin and the beats kept flowing, and when Humpty went
off, the "special guest" of the evening came on, and lo and behold, it
was Madonna! Well, I thought it was Madonna anyway, some people were like
"it's an impersonator," or "it's a man," but personally, I'm on the
optimistic side, and I knew it wasn't a man(those were REAL boobs, and
I'm telling you, I know Madonna's breats anywhere, and THoSE were
Madonna's breasts!), but either way, she put on one hell of a show and it
was really great being there...I really had a good time, even if my arms
and legs still hurt from the whole ordeal...yeah, it's Monday and I'm
still having trouble walking. But it was such a wonderful time...I'll
probably be going back for the Cryogenic party on the 24th, and the Final
Foam Fantasy on the 31st, and then again for Hybrid and Utah Saints on
the 14th, but I'd be there anyway since that night is the EDMC Buzz Patio
Takeover...I suppose I should do something to help out with that. Anyway,
I had a kick ass time, and it was definitely a night to remember. I went
with Emily and Tina and Julia(it was Julia's first time clubbing) and out
of the entire night, I think I made pretty good friends with Tina-she's a
real sweetie and a partykid at heart, we were talking about leaving at
something like 430AM and she's like "NOW!?!?! Butbutbut.." I couldn't
help but give her a big huge hug and tell her how cool she was..
I went home that night and slept like a baby.
Then I had to wake up and go do that consultancy with that guy...50
dollars an hour I can't complain about, but I only thought I'd be there
for something like an hour or two, and in actuality the guy had me there
for 3 hours....so I drove home with a big fat 150 dollar check in my
pocket. I was more than happy, considering I was only expecting to be
working for about an hour or so. The trick was that the questions he
asked and whatnot weren't particularly difficult or anything, but it was
fun to work on....I was pulling on DOS knowledge I didn't know I had to
help him out..I could see why the guy was so confused, I mean he was
running Windows 3.11 in his office, 95 on his personal computer, 98 on
his wife's laptop, and then stright DOS on his ancient IBM laptop...but
somehow or another, I managed to help him configure the DOS laptop to
dialup to the university using it's 2400 baud modem and help him get his
umail...
Then I was so thrilled, Girl and I were going to see a movie, but her
wallet got stolen sometime Saturday, and she couldn't find it...I
sincerely hope she managed to get everything worked out...I hope she got
her money back from the bank and managed to get everything
replaced...poor girl. At the same time as I feel bad for her because of
the crap she goes through every day, I at the same time can't feel pangs
of discontentment because of the way we interact, but oh well, I can't do
anything, I can't change me and I can't change her, so the really best
alternative is to just leave it alone and try to stop caring so much
about that kind of thing. I don't know, some of you have offered your
advice, but I don't know if you're right and I don't know if you're
wrong, but I think that's what I'm going to do. Thanks for being there.
In the meantime, the parents are going out of town on wednesday, so
it's gonna be just me and an empty house again...I'll have the car and
the time, and even the money this time...I really have the urge to go out
to eat at a restaurant and sit down for a nice dinner. Anyone wanna come
with me?
