i age but don't get old

okay so last sunday i closed the coffee shop. jesse visited me. afterwards i went home for a little bit, then rode over to laurnes house and played with the new kitten dan found. then me and dan rode over to south philly tap room for steve o's birthday. saw steve o, rayna, tom, mike schwartz, augusta and leo. was only there for a few minutes. then went back to laurens and went to bed.
monday i worked (i worked every single day this week) after work i went home and played Golden Eye with dan for awhile and drank whiskey and went to bed pretty early. watched the original Inglourios Bastards before bed, and lauren came over.
tuesday i worked, and after work i tried to have a somewhat productive day, dropped off my frames to get my new glasses rolling, got the second swamp thing and book 5 of sin city from barnes and noble, visited zack at urban, and did some food shopping. after that i made some dinner for myself and then watched In The Army Now with andy and lauren. after that went to laurens house for the night.
wenesday i worked and after work i began watching Parks and Recreations. then went out to dinner with brian at royal tavern. he told me he liked the tempeh club they have there. he also liked my lavis blake tattoo. after that i went home and showered and then greg k met me at my house and we went over to the menzos house and drank a bunch of beer and fourloko and scotch. had sorta a crazy night. i went to laurens house after that and slept there that night.

thursday i worked and after work i rode home in the rain and it sucked a lot. ate pizza and watched south park with andy then went over to the acoustic show. got there while madaline was playing. she was okay. she's just like a notch below laua stevenson or hop along in my opinion. then kite party played acoustic, didn't dig it at first but grew on me. then three man cannon played acoustic and it was alright, but they unfortunately totally blew a mountain goats cover of no children. total bummer. then some weird band played. then tom may played, did a dead kennedys cover, i messed him up by switching the order of the lyric sheets he printed out for that song (*note, by this point of the show everyone was very drunk, but it was only like 9). the rest of his songs were great, did some old acoustic menzos songs no one hears anymore. then greg barnett played, was also very good, played a bunch of really great new songs and then played my friend chris and i was born (also decided it was okay to laugh during the "i didn't do it" part of my friend chris and to sing the end of my friend chris over him during the end of i was born (im an asshole)). after that we hung out for awhile, there were tons of people there, lots of friends, lots of great food, ate pasta and cupcakes and brownies. it was a very cozy show. could of been something great if it wasn't ruined with the 48 natty bo's me and tom bought. after the show i went home to my house with lauren and went to sleep. friday i worked a longer shift, but after work i picked up my new glasses! then went home, showered and went to see JACKASS 3D with lauren!!!!!!!!!! and it was fucking amazing.

i can't even begin to discuss how great it was. but i haven't laughed so hard in a very long time. after the show me and lauren went to her house to drink some rum and cokes. bryce mary and dan were there and brian walked over and met us there. then he borrowed my bike, i rode dans old bike and we went to my house and then to the show at the dollhouse (there would be a flyer for it here, but it was just so bad i refuse to post it). missed Kids and Cop Problem. then didn't watch the next band. watched one win choice. heckled them the entire time to cover New Noise, they did and i basically just took the mic from the singer and crowd surfed the entire time and sang all of the words. it was pretty fucking amazing. i was very happy that brian was there for that cover. everyone lost there shit. i want to sing for a band so badly, and doing that only sealed it in my head for me. then glocca morra played, and everyone was very stoked and they played one song and the cops came. everyone left after that and i went home for a hot second and then went to the after party and zack/jp/tims new place. lots of people were at that, had a lot of fun, smashed my head into a lightbulb in the ceiling, didnt hurt but i bled. eventually passed out on the couch, had a weird experience with JP's girlfriend, threw up in the alley and went home with lauren. discovered i cut my hand badly too as i entered my house. don't know where that came from, oh well. went to bed.
today we woke up and rode to laurens house and she made me breakfast, brian brought my bike back and then went home. i then took a shower and went to work, and here i am.  fest is coming up soon, gotta save more money. the next few weeks are going to be crazy.

GDP was awesome. after that i went and got my bike and went to gregs for his party. saw a bunch of people and had a lot of fun and got home real late.
sunday i had to open the coffee shop, so it was a rough morning to say the least. after work i went to dickinson square and met lauren there and worked out things with her and then we went and checked out grindcore house. pretty cool place. check it out. went to circle thrift with lauren too and i got a 50 cent sweater. after that we went to my house, and ordered some pizza and hung out with andy and nick and set up the netflix for the tv and had a very lazy night.
 monday i had off from work. didn't really get much done. watched a lot of netflix with nick, including man vs food, arrested development, Airheads, the office, the Goods, and some other stuff. then nick dan and i had a family trip to target to get some junk. i bought nothing, but me and dan stole some nice flannels. went home, nick made burritos, which were delicious, and then we watched Crank 2. i slept at laurens that night.
tuesday was my last day off. i once again completed almost nothing. went on a bike ride with andy. ot cheese hoagies, went to target again, then to best buy and then the dollar tree. then we went home and sat around and watched some more of the office. i slept at laurens again that night.
wenesday i went to work real early only to find out i missed work on tuesday and was sent home and i thought i was going to be fired. but my boss got in at noon and called me and told me to come in and work the rest of the week (scorrre). so i worked kinda late that night. after work i....i'm not sure what i did after work that night.
thursday i worked pretty early again. it was raining so lauren drove me to work, and alex picked me up. me and him went to my house and ate burritos and watched The Love Guru, then jenni came over and andy came home and we all went to the royal tavern and then to jennis old roommates appartment then back to my house. jenni went home and lauren came over. we watched Copout when we got home, and by watch i mean alex and lauren watched and me and andy slept. oh well.
friday i worked again, boring day of work. after work i went home and finished season 5 of the office with andy and amanda. then i went to 12 steps down with dan to meet lauren there for emilys art show. dudes from everyone everywhere were there and so was laurens brother nick, very good to see all of them. after that lauren dan and i went to my house and then walked to the dollhouse for the show. we got there real late and had missed all but one band, ceasefire, and i didnt even watch them. after the show a bunch of people came back to my house and hung out and drank. around midnight we decided to all go over to the dolphin and watch strippers, not the best idea, but whatever. after that i went home and went to bed.
today ive just been cleaning and getting things done and whatnot, then i worked 2 to 8 at the coffee shop, actually i'm here now. wonder what i'll do tonight.

also, a whole post with no pictures to prove any of it actually happened. oh well.

Belle And Sebastian - I Didn't See It Coming

bad week

monday, i worked, got out of work, went to mollies and went to the ox to see pissed jeans. went along with elliot, kyle, mollie and slimer. show was alright. kinda bummed it was 10 bucks and not to many people showed up. after the show i hung out up there and drank more rum then i should have and passed out.
went straight to work the next morning. another long boring day at work. got out, went home and hung out with andy for awhile, then went to lavis blake practice at elliots house. got my guitar back, which was pretty sweet. then went home and then over to laurens house.

wenesday i worked aaaaagain, got out kinda early, went straight home and slept all day. lauren brought pizza over and left. i watched The Professional with dan after that and then basically went to bed. thursday i worked again, after work i had a much needed hang out with andy. eventually nick came come and phil came over. annnnnnnd eventually after that we went to 12 steps for the show. really weird that the new singer of let me run went to highschool with me. didnt see the mess's set, had a fight with lauren, things didnt end well. after wards i went home, hung out with andy nick and daniele, eventually tried to get pizza, ended up at a diner, i went to brians and slept there that night. friday i was just incredibly hung over, went home and got cheese hoagies with nick and andy, and just layed around the house all day with andy. eventually took a nap and woke up at like 8. went to jenni's house for a show, didn't watch any bands except lavis blake (who just seem to get better and better) it was great seeing so many friends. another night where i got way to drunk. definitely in the top 10 times. all i really remember is i crashed my bike into a parked car and threw up several times. not my highest moment. spent today pretty hung over again, and went straight to work at the coffee shop. thinking about having a low jey night tonight. we'll see.
