What up everyone??!?!?!
Sorry for the whole missing in action thing. Got caught up in my weekend and then work has me going non-stop. Its funny that I spent the whole summer doing shit, just to find out that when the students return, I have a real job afterall.
The one good thing is that the days go by SO much faster when I actually have shit to do.
And boy do I have shit to do.
Let's see...
Sitting here with my pathetic glass of wine. Rita is out meeting up with an old friend of hers from highschool. They haven't seen eachother in years and she is nervous, excited, etc. about the whole thing. I gave her a good pep talk and sent her on her way.
Unfortunately, there hasn't been much going on in my life over the last couple of days. Been kind of down about some shit that happened over the weekend, but I think I may be pulling out of it afterall.
Time heals all wounds. As annoying as that saying is...it is very true and I must remember it every time I get stuck in a rut like the one I seem to be stuck in now.
whatever. No reason obsessing. It will all just go away eventually.
Hopefully.
So I got this new obsession going. It's called the New York Public Library. I just got my card about 2 weeks ago...but I can't stop going there like every day. Seriously, it's becoming a problem.
If you go to the library on Monday and check out a book, it's a given that you shouldn't need to revisit the library again for at least a couple days or a week, depending on how fast you read the book(s) you have just gotten.
But my theory is...if you don't like the book you have just gotten...you go back the next day, turn it in and get something new.
It's too much power for a boy like me. I am getting into this habit of reading 50 pages of a book, deciding it's shit and then going back the next day on my lunch break to spend an hour in there finding something different and more exciting. At this rate, I will never actually read a full book. But I will know all the titles of everything out there.
Plus they have movies and I can't stop renting those either.
Oh man. Someone help me. I am getting a little out of control.
This weekend, I went to a couple Albany bars with my friend Mariah and a couple of her friends from home. One of which lives in NYC with her. I love this girl, Rachel, that she lives with....USUALLY. But Friday night, she was the devil and I really hated every second I spent with her. Eventually I ditched them all and did what I wanted to do.
Alone.
And I was great with it.
And to be honest, I wasn't alone.
Kelly...I ran into the following people at Oh Bar:
Jim Lanahan and Tommy. UM WHAT?!?! Do I run into them in Albany???
Dan Keon. Stupid idiot, wouldn't leave me alone Dan Keon.
KEVIN! OKAY! So I run into an ex-boyfriend? He sucked and wouldn't leave me alone either...but I think he eventually got the hint. I mean...someone like me just doesn't spend the night walking around with someone like him. heh heh.
Also...I ran into Erin Selkis who is now a WOMAN! Uh what?!?!? I actually said to her: "What's your name...you look so familiar." She goes..."Joe...it's ERIN SELKIS!"
After shitting myself from shock...then having to go to the bathroom to clean myself up...I say to her..."What the hell have you been doing all these years?"
I don't remember what she said because I was asleep from boredom after the first five minutes.
Snore.
Rome, the bar, has turned ghetto and everyone in it was out of their fucking minds. I remember when I was at Rome's opening with Kevin, like 4 years ago, and it was so classy and nice.
Now...wow. It's become a teenager/drug romp fest.
OH! And let all you NYC people know...I ordered 4 drinks for the people I was with...expecting to pay for them all, cuz it was my turn. Guess how much it cost? I thought at least $26 bucks...but NOPE!
$13.50.
How does anyone ever go poor in Albany?!?!
The night was fine.
The end.
I saw the movie "Signs" with my parents on Sunday and it was not only scary as fuck...it was moving. I found myself laughing, crying, and jumping out of my seat. If you don't see this movie in the theater...then you are missing out on quite an experience. Mel Gibson...can do no wrong. No seriously...no wrong. I don't care if he hates gays. This gay loves him.
Certain movies are meant for the big screen.
This is one of them.
And if you don't like it...it's best to keep your mouth shut...cuz I know theater and I know film and I know what works. This movie is fucking BOMB.
The end.
Again.
Alright...time to go make myself some fucking dinner. This bitch has been burping up hot dogs all day, cuz I made the wonderful mistake of eating 2 of them for lunch today. They were amazing.
But now I taste them about every five minutes or so.
Jami...you are adorable. Where do you live? Your emails and webpage make me smile.
If you are in NYC...HELLS if we aren't getting together for drinks very soon.
Adios mi mujeres.
Oh! Y muchachos as well.
It's hard for me to tell who is reading these dayz.
Off to french fry land.
