i had a dream i was given a suit, a colt .45, and a 1966 mercedes benz SL and told to go rob the bank for $10,000. told all of this by my father whom i haven't seen or spoken to in years.

the rest of the day hasn't been much better.

except i saw my friend tannon. he's getting the flu. but he loaned me some manchild comic books.

and now there's some asshole slapping on my bass guitar. i believe i told him that unless his name is larry graham he's got no business slapping my bass. i think he said his name was jeff.

there are people here drinking on my porch. i left when they started talking religion.

i am so fucking bored.

Got into work. Pretended for about 3 hours that I was doing some work. I was in fact surfing the net to find a Jensen speaker to mod my Laney amp.

I can't concentrate on anything but music at the moment. I'm obsessed.

All I want to do is rock!

Went to see Danzig on Friday. He was suprisingly really good and played a fantastic Misfits set with Doyle.

Still at work pretending to work but I'm on here posting this.

I'm back to work after camping at Devil's Lake since thursday with a bandmate, a friend visiting from NYC, and a buddy who recently came back from Iraq. It was great. The theme for the trip was The Misfits "RATTFINK" changed to "CAMPING". C-A-M-P-P-I-N-G [sic] CAMPING! And when we went rock climbing it changed to "CLIMBING!".

Then I went home sunday cold wet and stinking, got cleaned up to watch the Packers get trounced. Sigh. Its gonna be a long season.

A kid pissed himself in the waiting room of my pharmacy department today. He was about 2, and his mum, a properly feral hag, simply refused to take him to the toilet in the mistaken belief that having a whining child with her would make the prescription she was waiting for appear faster.
I dispensed the script as quickly as I could, but it wasn't quick enough, and he pissed himself, leaving a puddle on the floor. We put up a wet floor sign and bleeped a cleaner to come and mop it up.

That was probably the worst part of a fairly shitty day.
Now I'm going home to play video games and try not to smoke.

There's a man in my neighbourhood who has a hook for a right hand. Regardless of hour or season, I've never seen this guy any way but in a cheap black cowboy hat, jean jacket, zip-up shit kickers, and cheap aviators. He is short, slight, and pale. He has the appearance of someone in a last-minute Halloween costume, every day.

I walked past him today and he had a six-pack of beer dangling from his hook. If he doesn't speak with a lisp or impediment, I'll be damned.

Today at 3pm I got a little busy at work. All kinds of little things needed to get done before I had to leave. Not very hard or frustrating. Nothing really challenging. I figured I'd just do these things and relax for a half hour before leaving at 5pm.

Of course, this is when things always go wrong. My desk is next to the bathrooms and they're redoing all of them. At 3pm the construction workers starting cutting concrete to install new plumming. This was at least 10 ft from my desk (and no door, since they removed the old one). There was nothing I could do and I couldn't go to another desk. I had to finish up work that was due tomorrow morning. So, I sat in the midst of all the noise, going absolutely insane. Took an hour or so after I left to get back to normal.

I just dropped my first cup of coffee of the day. What a mess. I should have been dinking on a little earlier.

I was getting ready to take a shower at the gym today, and heard a song that seems to mostly consist of the words "Lying in bed like Brian Wilson did" over and over again.

The band should be shot.

I went to court today, and was late, because some asshole pulled the emergency brake on the subway. Grrr.

8 hours later I returned to the exact same place, except this time it was for the Yankee game. The Yankees spanked the D-rays so hard that I left in the middle of the 7th inning, when the score was 12-0.

Matsui played tonight, that was cool.

Man, do the D-rays suck.

Oh, and I voted too. I was only the 23rd person in my district to vote.

More jackhammering and concret cutting! AHHHHHH!!!!
