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)
