I just love that line haha. If you didn't know it's Bite my tongue by The Ataris.
"When's the right time? To use a stupid pick up line? So how's the weather? Do you wanna spend the night together?."
(Bite My Tongue, The Ataris)
I did. Not a big one but hey a raise is a raise. WOOOO! Also the return of Satan, he made a similar appearance two years ago.
"I really never liked Fridays (I don't). I can't do what I wanna do (Like to). Sold out at the movies (Go out). Can't eat at the restaurants (Weekends). Everybody want a good time. But the bar's full of cigarette smoke. I think I'll stay home. I think I'll wait for Monday."
(Thank god it's Monday, NOFX)
Yup, thanks to Steph for setting me up haha.
"Oh, and all the things you dreamed of. The visions that you saw. Well, the time is drawing near now. It's yours to claim in all."
(Son of Man, Phil Collins)
Indeed I did and indeed they did.
"Is she really going out with him? Is she really gonna take him home tonight? Is she really going out with him? 'Cause if my eyes don't deceive me. There's something going wrong around here."
(Is She Really Going Out With Him?, Joe Jackson)
I just feel so tired. I didn't wanna leave my bed today. Blah.
It's Nilla Waffer time.
I forget the last time I actually kept drawing for this long. If I was famous enough others would tell me haha.
"Don't turn your back on me, don't ever let me down. She said, I picked you up each time before you hit the ground. Your selfish face is now erased when someone mentions you. If only you had seen what I now see. And turned the corner where you would have been. Within a mile of home, within a mile of home."
(Within A Mile Of Home, Flogging Molly)
Yup yup.
"I am just a worthless liar. I am just an imbecile. I will only complicate you. Trust in me and fall as well. I will find a center in you. I will chew it up and leave."
(Sober, Tool)
Yup yup.
"I tried to keep her on a short leash. I tried to calm her down. I tried to ram her into the ground, yeah."
(Seether, Veruca Salt)
I saw the Terminator Salvation three weeks ago and thought of this two days ago. WOO!
"No longer svelte. They gotta punch new holes in the Bible belt."
(Leaving Jesusland, NoFX)
Yup.
"I gotta go, gotta go. Before I do something stupid. I gotta go I gotta go, gotta go. Before I do something lame."
(A Little Doubt Goes A Long Way, Reel Big Fish)
According to my count I deleted 25 numbers. But they are not gone forever. I wrote them down as well. So I just took em off my phone, not gotten rid of them.
"I guess that I'm wrong for falling in love. But you're still the one that I'm dreaming of. I guess that it's you I want to hold onto. But you're holding onto someone else."
(Broken Promise Ring, The Ataris)
I didn't mention yesterday, but the new band I'm in contains 3/4 of Without Parachute. The addition's are me and the drummer's girlfriend who sings.
Yup. It's true. Gonna be fun. WOOO!
"I'm a troublemaker. Never been a faker. Doin' things my own way. And never giving up. I'm a troublemaker. Not a double-taker. I don't have the patience to keep it on the up."
(Troublemaker, Weezer)
This falls under the I shit you not category(I checked). Once again I came across this fact via an itouch app about cool facts, there is a bunch in there.
Peace all.
"Do you still think I'm funny? Do you still think I am? Well, at least to one of us."
(The winter of 95, A New Found Glory)
Yup. Being neglectful, but hey I try.
"The book of love has music in it. In fact that's where music comes from. Some of it's just transcendental. Some of it's just really dumb. But I. I love it when you sing to me. And you. You can sing me anything."
(The Book of Love, Peter Gabriel)
Slightly ashamed but not, I do think this quite often as I look at women with big boobs. Despite my respect for women I dig tits haha.
"So I walk myself picking at a chip on my shoulder. I'm another day late and one year older. It's failure by design."
(Failure By Design, Brand New)
Yup I was introduced to sweet bar. 3 Monkeys Cafe it's a cool little bar in the Northeast Jay and Theresa took me too. They have the best ale I ever had, not bitter as most. The only downside is the price for a Monkey Ale is $4.50. It's kinda worth it, but it sucks the price.
Later folks.
"Here's to us fools. That have no meaning. I tip my glass to you. Let's toast the night away to friends. And forget about tomorrow."
(Ballad For The Lost Romantics, A New Found Glory)
Yup, Nic Nac everybody haha. I think the funniest bit that I left out was that she said "for any reason" The fact she implied there would possibly be more then one reason for me to get an action figure was hilarious haha.
"We drive. Dave steps on the gas. The world that's flying by is slick and smooth. Big waves of light. The radio is playing Queen. We're rocking out."
(Shoulder To The Wheel, Saves the Day)
Yup yup.
Yup it's real. Don't know what it's about, but I couldn't get past the title.
"Fall through heart. Your hands were oh so small. It's the things about this place. Tonight we escape."
(Hart Crane, The Anniversary)
Yup. Fun times.
Also in comic related news. I finished a new comic looky here. It's fun.
"We live on front porches and swing life away. We get by just fine here on minimum wage. If love is a labor I'll slave 'til the end. I won't cross these streets until you hold my hand "
(Swing Life Away, Rise Against)
It's all true. Except I didn't call her a cum guzzler.
Yea, I'm not a fan of this word. But this was to funny to me to pass up. I was gonna censor the n word but I don't censor my other foul language so I figured why start now. Sorry if I offend anybody.
For the first time ever. I went to see a band I like and did not know the words to a lot of their songs. Aside from that, the show was awesome.
Wonder if anybody can guess the song I'm trying to sing along to haha.
It's silly haha.
I might not be here tomorrow. For once I have an excuse. I'll be seeing Alkaline Trio at the Troc. WOOOO! Later.
"Where we'd hit the ground running on empty stories we've been told. And all those nights we spent together never felt this fucking cold. When we let the car run in the driveway kiss you one last time. Before we brought the horses in before the storm of '59."
(Warbrain, Alkaline Trio)
Yup, topical humor. I feel a little bittersweet. On the one hand I have a comic today, the other it's going to be a dated joke. But then again. *shrug*
Also a word about reunions. I get confused why certain ones get back together (Smashing Pumpkins where it's only Billy Corgan). But it comes down to they members made more money together then on their own.
"Should have been dead. On a Sunday morning. Banging my head. No time for mourning. Ain't got no time."
(My Own Prison, Creed)
Yup, been playing Mirror's Edge. It's awesome. And yea, I do fall off buildings a lot, or I get shot.
"My dreams aren't premonitions."
(Impossible Outcomes, The Get Up Kids)
Yup, on Sunday my friend Jess' boyfriend Nick(you may remember him from my old band Pistolia and that he is Greek) had roast lamb for Greek Easter.
That's all. Later folks.
"Remember when I said I love you. Well, forget it I take it back. I was just a stupid kid back then. I take back every word that I said."
(Stupid Kid, Alkaline Trio)
Had my cousin Patties' funeral today. As you can see it rained all day.
I promise there will be a funny one tomorrow. Later.
"His eyes they closed and his last breath spoke. He had seen all to be seen. A life once full, now an empty vase. Wilt the blossums on his early grave."
(What's Left Of The Flag, Flogging Molly)
Yea, it's been a weird time. I wasn't close to either, but they're still family.
I think I am mostly worried somebody else is going to pass soon cause these things sometimes happens in threes. So I figure a week or so and things will be clear.
"May angels lead you in."
(Hear You Me, Jimmy Eat World)
Yup. I truly wonder how he found me and also felt the need to apologize.
Also if you wanna read specifically what he wrote. Look here.
"Nothing could go wrong anytime that I'm with you. Like crashing a hotel room or leading up to that first kiss. Or searching for a high school that you know doesn't exist."
(San Dimas High School Football Rules, The Ataris)
Yup left the house in search of Comics and spending gift cards. I found comics in the form of Brave New Worlds. A sweet comic shop in Center City. Though it didn't have as many back issues of Deadpool as I hoped, but I got some. And book called, Bookhunter, a graphic novel about a book detective. Look forward to reading it.
Afterwards I went searching for this fabled George's Music store Google told me existed in Center City (also ran into my old college friend Chris). Alas I didn't find it.
In reference to the Google at Siggraph thing. They always have a booth at Siggraph. In case you were wondering.
"The sin of property. We do disdain. No man has any right to buy and sell. The earth for private gain. By theft and murder. They took the land. Now everywhere the walls. Spring up at their command."
(The World Turned Upside Down, Billy Bragg)
Ditto.
"All my friends are enemies. And they just turn their backs to my face. Their actions biting me. And all my friends are enemies. So I'm always on my own."
(All My Friends, Say Anything)
Yup yup.
"Now I'm watchin wrestling. Tryin to be a tough guy. Listenen to rap metal. Turntables in my eyes. I can't grow a mustache and I ain't got no season pass. All I gots a moped."
(Girl All The Bad Guys Want, Bowling for Soup)
Yup, I've been playing under that name. They seem to find it as funny as I do.
"You're always dressed to kill. And you feel like you owe it to the world. But you owe it to yourself."
(Dressed to Kill, A New Found Glory)
Indeed. People think it's a new game, but it's been out forever.
Yup yup. I recently felt the need to read comics. So I pulled out my Deadpool and Age of Apocalypse. Shweeeeet.
True true haha.
"Drop the girl she's no good for you. She'd sink lower than a body in the Hudson could ever do"
(Drop The Girl, Hit The Lights)
I mean technically she was right to ask. She was bringing up the display case, so it wasn't really resident evil 5. Still though, it's on the fucking box.
"Just because you're better than me. Doesn't mean I'm lazy. Just because you're going forwards. Doesn't mean I'm going backwards."
(To Have And To Have Not, Billy Bragg)
It indeed has been a very very long time since I drew something that at least looked realistic. Granted I do better realistic with pencil then pen, which I used. When I thought about it, I did sketch Maria Shriver at work cause she had her picture on some thing. Suffice to say, it was bad. The last time I recall drawing something good that was realistic was figure drawing in college. I've been meaning to get back into still life and figure drawing. Just refresh and shake of this cartoonness.
As for Jury Duty. I was called in for a federal jury duty. So I made $40 dollars today plus 55 cents per mile I had to travel to get to center city. I got lucky, I got sent to a trial but they didn't pick me, so they said I could go home and didn't have to come tomorrow. WOOOOO!!! Even though I wasn't picked, I did the math. I'd make almost as much at jury duty then at work. Interesting.
Well that's all folks. Later.
"The sun sets tomorrow but I won't be there. I don't know what happened, too much has changed."
(Parting Ways, Slick Shoes)
I forgot to mention it was my good friend Theresa's birthday yesterday. So happy birthday to her. Her birthday was celebrated at the Spaghetti warehouse. It was fun, and the food was meh.
Well that's it. Later folks.
"And she was the kind of girl who you would give up eating meat for. No more salami. No more steak or potatoes. Yeah you would walk on down to the health food store and buy hummus. And tabouli. And babaganoush. And rice cakes, rice cakes, rice cakes."
(Nose Ring Girl, Nerf Herder)
Yup, saw it on a car while I was getting driven to work. You would think someone who believed so much they'd put such a phrase on their car would take care of it. Oh well.
"Don't ever forget. All the sleepless nights. We stayed up late. Until the sun would rise. No matter how far you get. I'll be a step behind. To catch you when you fall down."
(The Good Life, Valencia)
Yup. I bought a tube at work. Got a few funny looks haha. But hey I explained.
It's almost done healing WOOO!
"But deep in your Heart. You know the guilt would drive you mad. And the shame would leave a permanent scar. Cause you start out stealing songs. Then you’re robbing liquor stores. And selling Crack. And running over school kids with your car."
(Don't Download This Song, Weird Al Yankovic)
It's true.
"Was a blood red sky on the morning tide. Was a cold wind blowing when I left that night. And the morning bells rang, alright, alright. Shoulda stayed home with you that night. Ain't nobody played the fool like I."
(Red At Night, The Gaslight Anthem)
This is the first tattoo I had to explain really. All the others kinda explain themselves. I mean if you didn't know me you'd wonder why on earth would I tattoo such weird things. But most do know me and they figure it makes sense. In the end when you think about it the question mark comic makes sense too. But nobody thinks when the look at it "Hey it's a comic strip." I think cause the marks kinda overpower the outline surrounding em.
But hey, it's awesome. Later.
"We only made out. You never kissed me. That's how I learned to hold back all feeling."
(Make-Up Smeared Eyes, Automatic Loveletter)
It's true. I'll even give you an example. I'll say Classical Arrangement by Dillinger Four is the best song on the record, in which she will scream hell no or Playmate of the Year by Zebrahead is cool, which she'll just laugh at me. Yea.
Later folks.
"Oh take a chance. Let your body get a tolerance. I'm not a chance, but a heat wave in your pants. Pull a breath like another cigarette. Palms up, I'm trading 'em (trading 'em). I'm the oracle in my chest. Let the guitar scream like a fascist. Sweat it out, shut your mouth. Free love on the streets. But in the alley and I ain't that cheap, now."
(I Don't Care, Fall Out Boy)
Yup, I played open mic night by myself. It was cool and I got a positive response. Though nobody was there haha.
Later.
"Lean on Sheena. She leans on me a lot. Hold on, hold on, hold on to what you've got. Hold on to what you've got."
(Lean On Sheena, The Bouncing Souls)
Yup yup. Happy St Patrick's Day folks. Be safe.
Yea I forgot to mention that I got a haircut, I didn't think of a good joke.
"I met my be-bop baby at the Union Hall. She could dance all night and shake the paint off the walls. But when I saw her smile across a crowded room. Well I knew we'd have to leave the party soon. As the band began to play out of tune."
(And We Danced, The Hooters)
Yup yup. Once again I visit Doc to get tattooed. As you can see I got two. One is a 1up mushroom with a phrase underneath that you can see in this picture. It's not it exactly but it gives you the idea. They second as you saw is a comic strip with question marks in em(it symbolizes wondering what will happen next).
"And it's just. Something that I've been dying to let you know. And now that' you're gone. I'm holding on and I just can't let go."
(Where Did You Go?, Valencia)
Yup yup.
"I look up to the sun. It only hurts my eyes. Maybe its the answer I've been wanting in disguise. The more you are with me. The more that I'm alone. I don't need the answer I already know."
(The Answer, Automatic Loveletter)
Yea, have a cold and I've been coughing a lot. Nose doesn't feel so good either.
Later folks.
"I'm coughing up a lung or two just so you know I'm breathing well in front of you."
(It's Going To Get Worse Before It Gets Better, Piebald)
