doomsday party

tomorrow i will most likely be drunk by 7, if not earlier, as my lovely roommate is moving to san fran and is having a shit show of a going away party. this involves chevys $3 margaritas, a large donkey pinata filled with tiny bottles of various alcohol and candies, and si amigos buckets of alcohol drinks (casuelas) oh lord.

that and i find myself completely incapable of doing work at my job these days. sure sign that i need a new job. also sure sign, is my boss calling and requesting i work tomorrow, which would be my 5th day in a row, and i still have saturday to work (expect a posting then). or the fact i've worked here for 3 birthdays and never once received a birthday card. or a free email...or...jesus the list goes on. and on. and on. fuck her. please please please let her retire.

tomorrow cleaning for saturday, when bands will play on my roof! i'm curious to see if anyone falls off from "rocking" too hard. or, more likely, being too drunk.

i'll have to scan the flier for jon's going away party, its amazing and references lil wayne, as all good things in life do.

shaky

they (oh the elusive theys! everywhere, everyone, yet no one...) they being construction workers are ripping up the road behind me, making the court house sway a bit and shake. i can hear vague twangs of gee-tar and some deeper man singing coming in from the windows (which i think we all learned were not bullet proof when judge weller was shot through his window).
this weekend was fucking weird. so much for the calming down thing.

friday went to nikki beach to go see biz markie-borrowed a dress and heels and was about 9 feet tall all night. kept waiting and waiting for biz markie to take the tiny makeshift stage infront of the pool, to no avail. finally walk over and see that the so-so dj was actually biz markie. so glad i did not pay the $20 cover to see that, thank god for friends that know everyone in this god damn town.
whoa, there goes the building moving on me again. it's making feel drunk or something.

after nikki beach, went to pearl, which is really just all city live with white walls covering the fake-ass tags (i'm told "winger" is one of them) on the walls and instead have dangling white fabric where burning man chicks in white bikinis twirl around, to a better dj than biz markie.
finally leave grand sierra resort, and go to a friends where the beer is free, as is the top ramen.

saturday was chapel's one year anniversary, which means i got black out drunk (which never happens. still horrified) and apparently had a 5 minute long conversation with cassie that i have no recollection of. oops!

sunday was my friends b-day and of course, the stars aligned and he picked nikki beach for us to all go to again. i seriously have stayed away from that place for like the 2 years it's been open and i've been mocking it only to find myself there twice in one weekend. sometimes i love love how ridiculous things are. like us getting vip passes and standing in the sand where there's a famous football players and boys dressed like team zissou, later followed by weird round table experiences (every table in the god damn restuarant was filthy) and the night ending with all of us in a hotel suite that had been turned into a night club complete with a dj and dancing green lights. seriously, weirdest weekend ever. jeez louise. oh, and swimming in the pool was awesome. i hadn't done that in so long.
tonight is another b-day bash...oh, its hard to concentrate with all the drilling in the background.
basically, last weekend was totally weird and i made off with a stolen pair of team zissou's shorts, salt + pepper shakers, towels, and a lotion and single cup instant coffee mix. there's nothing more than i love than stealing from hotels. so guilt free!

sinking ships

the last few months have been so all over the place. march broke my heart, april pulverized what fragments were left. may was pretty kick ass though, as was june (saw tom waits!).

in the last four months, i've met so many new people, lost some old friends, and re-kindled ones that had for whatever reason faded, so i feel like it's been sort of a draw. perhaps a little too much drinking in june, and making out....eh, whatever. i'm 23, fuck it. trying to not make out with 4 different people this month though, and not be at the same bar 5 nights in a fucking row. jesus.

but it's saturday, i'm at work. It's surprisingly very busy today, so i guess it's good i didn't call in sick like i had wanted to and go do the rat race (floating, drinking a ton for cash prizes down the river). kind of feeling like my rampage is maybe slowing down. lord knows my wallet can't keep up with it.

hopefully i'll find a roommate and not have to move. get my bikes fixed, get a new job and in general, function better. fitter; happier.

or at least get a job where i don't have to listen to fucking patrons clipping their nails, drooling on papers, farting so loudly i can hear them across the library and a boss that asks if i know about when my grandpa will be dying to she can arrange the time off i need for the funeral. seriously. what. the. fuck?!

rest in peace grandpa. april 27. he was still hilarious even up to the very end.

2008's been a hard year, and something tells me that although certain aspects are getting better, others will be getting worse. i'm just feeling like a sinking ship trying to stay afloat. god the image of a sinking ship is a fucking beautiful romantic one...
