the show last night was a lot of fun, except for minor drama conversations, it went off without a hitch. the best was when some dude was lighting fireworks in the street, and when i confronted him ("hey are you guys lighting fireworks off?") he made a total bold face lie ("no, it was some guy, he went that way") and i totally called him on it and his friend owned up to the lie.
i got considerably drunk, probably because i consumed a nutritional shake and a couple pasta noodles for dinner, but wasnt too wasted to do anything stupid (i.e. hard drugs, bad makeouts, embarassing things), and even had the will power to put myself to bed.
of course, i did bike to pizza garden by myself at 2 in the morning and eat three pieces of garlic pesto pizza and didnt even feel full.

id forgotten how amazing autistic youth and damaged goods are. i recorded the whole show on my mini tape recorder.

stokings include listening to the recorded show and the autistic youth tape while cleaning my room later today. excited!

ive also come to the conclusion that collecting records is too much, and im sticking to tapes. from now on. no more bulky boxes to put in storage everytime i want to take off somewhere.

hmmm update.

the pts halloween party was pretty fun. except i got ripped high on ecstasy, and my jaw freaked everyone out because it was grinding into my face a million miles and hour, and the whole time, i was dressed as keith. which really meant i looked like me, except i burnt the end of a cork and rubbed the soot all over me, and i had a neck scar, because keith broke his neck, yo. keith looked far better as me. complete with my pants and my ponytail, and the flowery hat. ingenious. more costumes should be "dress up as your friends" oriented.




ive been working lately.

the rest of the week goes: wednesday 10-6.30, thursday 9-2, friday 10-6.30.

but its nine fitty an hour. i was promised full time, but now, not only am i getting 3 and under shifts a week, they're hiring new people who are inexperienced dolts and they have people already employed who are definitely not cut out to work in the service industry.

the only thing i remember from working today is some lady came in to talk to my boss and indicated she was going to contact said boss later. except she said "i'll give you a dingle".

dingle?

then i stabbed both of them hit the NS button (no sale, duh) on the cash register, and took off with all the bills! and a toonie for the bus.


(ps. if you know me, you'll know this part is a lie, because i dont take the bus! shit!)

(well at least not to work)


the show at video in was totally stoking. highlights include: awkward conversations, pre and post foundation eats (post eats including crushing on two dudes at the foundation, eating fondue, being juls sugar momma),
abductee SD, my new favorite band, did anyone see that scar on the bass players face! totally hot! and she doesnt take shit, shes crazy.

abductee SD then played again at my house last night which was radical. jaded jinas played first, with nathan in drag as the bass stand in because the orig. jina has tendinitis (sp?). it was rad, i havent heard them play a show in a long time, and i was sober, which was cool. i thought i was getting a kidney infection, again, but it turned out to be harsh back pains, which lisa marie, miranda and nathan collectively put an end to after it was all said and done.

after jaded jinas, east side death squad, aka newfie mikes band that glorifies living in east van, played. i met jay leblanc for the first time. he showed me his camera. it was real interesting.

ESDS were good at the songs they played when they didnt fuck them up. but they did that a lot. but its cool. its cool when your friends are in bands and play shows at your house and everyone is drunk and stoked/stoned.

abductee SD next, amazing, of course. i bought a shirt and a button and an LP. and i owe so many people money for all of it. even the button! im so broke!

miranda and i's set was real good. perfect, basically. and everyone was stoked and dancing and singing along, which made me nervous and bashful but excited all in one.

after that, i went to the astoria, abductee SD played again, then the likely lads, then the mishits. by the time the mishits came on, everyone was pretty drunk/. not me though.
i played pool with this kid jesse, skidges roommate, who rides a fixed gear. i beat him on a scratch if i remember. pretty rad. i love the game of pool.

it kinda sucks that today is tuesday. tuesday are the nothing to do nights for me. wed& thursday are karaoake at the legion and asbalt, respectively. and then its the weekend. so iguess mondays mundane as well.

monday, mundane. (yess).

uhhh thats it i think.


oh ps. i heart my house, so much, right now.

pps. i stole nathan m.'s shoes today. ha! take that!
