The past three weeks have been so "heinous".
I have almost completly lost my voice.
I was going to write more, but I don't care to right now...
small re-cap
-whiskey, friend or foe
-New York, awesome
-Managers meeting, lame
-Bob's BBQ, amazing time
-Sal's afterwards, kind of crazy and black outy
-Softball, couldn't happen
-Breakfast, very pleasant

Heavy and dark skin
It seems like every night is turning into a lot of fun.
Rachael, Rory, Pat, Shane, Meg, Andy, and myself ended up having a spur of the moment Super Nintendo/Beer/Wine/Pizza party.
Rory knocked the Nintendo so ALL of our glory was erased, but we did listen to a lot of good music and told a lot of good stories.
It was really exciting to have people come over to my house, because no one ever comes over. I live in West Philadelphia, and sometimes I think West Philadelphia ia surrounded by Lava. No one ever wants to travel there. Last night was different. People came, danced, sang, and drank.
I even let Rachael share my down comforters with me.
These two in the morning nights are starting to kill me, but it has been a fun couple of weeks.
So here is a list of things that are coming up, that are awesome:
- Party in South Philadelphia. I'm not going, I'm going, I'm not going, I'm going.
- For real going to the carnival on saturday!
- Possible paper party saturday night.
- Pot Luck Sunday
- Wing-ageddon
- Modest Mouse concert
- SPIDERMAN 3 (Thank God)
- Stinko de mayo
- CUBS VS. PHILLIES HOME GAME!
- Genesius Project group show at the Mew Gallery. New works, New Members, New fun.
May 19th! OPENING
Wow.

Wonderin' why christmas missed us
Last night was a good time. I helped Bob screen print shirts for his comic-con in Ohio.
The shirts have a T-Rex head on them (which is sweet)
on three of the shirts, especially for Rory we screen printed the words "Be Cool"
and now the story of "Be Cool"
(Please keep in mind all of this story has been re-told to me. I was intoxicated at the time, but it comes from a very reliable and sober source. Everything in Italics I remember... anything else... well...)
Saturday night after drinking at Ray's Happy Birthday bar, we meet up with Rory and his lovely sister (Who I will have to apologize to for the rest of my life.) The both of them were already pretty loaded off of a bottle of tequila, but joined us for shots.
We decided the leave Ray's and go to the worst bar in Philadelphia, The Dive. (The one good thing about The Dive is Pat is friends with all the bartenders, so the tab stays low. There is a whole group of us. We have the now regulars Shane, Rachael, Pat, Curt, and myself with the addition of Rory and his sister, all TORE at The Dive, where we begin to do shots of Jager and drink cheap beer. Rory and Shane are drunk enough to be head butting one another, and Rachael and I are just having a good time. The DJ at the Dive was a friend of a friend Drew. He starts playing classic rock, and several prime wing-ageddon songs. So we all get a little excited and start stomping out feet on the ground.
This is the first time we almost get thrown out of the Dive. We were stomping so hard that plaster was hitting people at the bar on the second floor. So we calmly apologize but continue to rock out... And this is where I sort of have lights out.
To continue, Everyone starts to get louder, and it is getting close to last call. Rory decides that he is really upset by the notion that there is no way for anyone to drink more at the bar. So he tries to jump on the tables. But he doesn't try to jump on a chair and than to table, He is trying to clear floor to table. What in reality is happening is that Rory keeps humping the table. The bartender grabs his shirt and says "You got to get the hell out of here". The Bouncer can't get to him, because we all crowd around him. So my friend Bob (who is always sober... How he puts up with this, I will never know) walks up to Rory and says, "Yo Rory, Be cool".
At this point Rory turns to him, Looks him dead in the eye and says "Be Cool", retracts his arms and pretends he is a T-rex. Rory gets close to the table and starts knocking down all the empty drink classes onto the floor. The whole time starring Bob in the eye, and making dinosaur sounds...
We eventually were thrusted out of the bar.
And thus a tee shirt was born.
In other news, there was an INK fight today at our store, which ended by us spilling green permantent ink all over the floor. The awesome is on us today.
Also
MB refused to let me go to the carnival across from her store because she said it was un-safe! All I wanted was a waffel ice cream sandwich and to ride the gravitron. Come on! I love Mary Beth so much because she gets me really cool vintage dresses when she is out at thrift stores! She also gives me rides to south philly when I visit her at the store :) This was very useful yesterday because of all the stuff I had in their office to take back to my house!
AND FINALLY she has diet pepsi in her trunk at all times, which is my all time favorite. At anytime driving with MB you can have a soda. Amazing.
This weekend....
Friday:
Possible party at 922, but I don't know if I am comfortable stooping to that level yet.
Saturday:
Inventory, gross
Possible get together over paper products
Sunday:
Breakfast with the lovely Kelly
LAUNDRY and
A Rachael S. pot luck, where I am making black beans.
wish me fun

Wing-ageddon Cont.
Ok,
I am feeling a little rejuvenated.
The low down on Wing-Ageddon this week.
We keep rocking McGillin's harder and harder everytime we roll in there.
This week the waitresses actually brought us tables and lined them up for us along the back wall.
Surly (that is the red haired waitress that is a little on the grumpy side) Was really pissed that we had so many people attend wing-ageddon this week that people had to stand around the table. She was also really pissed when we told our other waitress that we loved her. The other waitresses name is Jenny and we kept trying to play "Jenny" on the jukebox, but got too drunk to find it. Surly thought it was "rude" that we wanted Jenny to be our waitress so we could give her the great big tip.
The night started out kind of slow, the group trickled rather than showing up as an awesome super eating and drinking team.
However we started working that jukebox as soon as we got there. Greg the non-drinker ordered a pitcher of water (which was pretty funny), and he also drank blue cheese threw a straw.
One wrench in the whole operation was the business people at the end of the table. We were running out of seats fast and this group of people would not budge. So we did the only thing we knew how to do "rock" them away!
BUT
It back fired! The more we sang the rowdier the business group got. Once Bon Jovi started to blast out of the jukebox, the two groups formed into one. We had these middle age women screaming to the top of their lungs "Shot to the heart".
Greg (the only sober one) went and started dancing with these women with his pitcher of water. Surly was pissed. We laughed! It was a great time.
Towards the end the three business dudes Came and asked who made the "KICK ASS SHIRTS" (Direct quote)
I stood up and bowed, and they asked if I could make them one for next week. I said sure, you just have to come up with a wing name. I guess we will see next week if they can bring the noise.
Over-all quite an exciting time.
McGillin's survived another week of the Wing-Ageddon team, and none of us crashed our cars or died of alcohol poisoning!
We learned many lessons last night:
-Don't ever eat 37 wings, even if you want to win the championship
-Don't order lager pitchers, they are 4$ too many. We all know PBR sucks, but after you are drunk you can ignore it.
-Don't think you can out rock mid 40 year old women. You can't.
-Bon Jovi does bring people together
-You can get drunk off a pitcher of water.
-You can't drink 10 beers and eat 20 wings.
-Posing for pictures is ok, as long as you have lots of wing sauce on your face.
-If you love something, you make a tee-shirt for it.
-Making up nick names for said tee-shirt is completely appropriate!
-Who said artsy kids can't rock a bar like frat dudes.
-No one will out sing us. Many tried. Many failed.
-Wiping your hands on Wing-ageddon team members is necessary and appreciated.
ok.
There is a proper post.

Took a long time to be the ass I am
Whew, Wing-ageddon has changed my life.
Yesterday was pretty awesome because I had the day off.
Rachael and I went to target and bought underwear. I used to never buy underwear out of the packs, but Hanes "low rise, bikini" underwear are the greatest thing that have happened to me in a long time. I pitched these underwear so well, Rachael bought a pack.
Rachael, Shane, and I went to Ikea and got hot dogs!
Rachael, Dustin, Curt, Andy, and myself had a beer tasting at Rachael's. I do not like hennipen.
Last nights Wing-ageddon was heinous.
We didn't do as good of a job throwing down wings as last time, but bob wasn't there. Also our beer count was only up to 15 pitchers... wtf?
We were down a couple of drinkers.
The shield was awesome, Vic killed someone, good time.
Afterwards we all went to Rachael's and started drinking rum and apple cider. I actually got in Pj's and then Shane brought up a very valid point... "It is not too late for last call"
So I got dressed, Pat, Shane, and I rushed to Ray's and finished the night to Cat Stevens and JD shots...
Friday-Tuesdays drink fest has officially killed me. I am done until next week.
I think my favorite part was on monday when I was really dragging and my boss came in with, and I looked at him and went "Rough weekend?" and he said " No, Yes. I closed the bar friday night" and I said "I closed it Saturday" and we high fived and he hung out with Rory and I coming up with Wing names.
I have to go to a manager's meeting next week and I am worried that I might miss Wing-ageddon
you know what I am too groggy to keep writing.
I promise, a better post will come tomorrow

Not like it is my job, it is my career
So I am physically hurting after the weekend.
Officially out of hand.
The word of the weekend was "heinous"
and that is what it was... So much debauchry, I can't write most of it down.
Some highlights:
- "the cleansing" A.K.A "The great Juicy Juice experiment"
- Poop stories
- Ray's Happy birthday bar, and the five shots (ea.) we took there
- The dive, and the 10ish shots we took there (ea.)
- Rory getting told to leave
- Group nap
- Burrito (which in the end was a questionable decision)
- Friday night party
- Friday night looking for the Republican
- Rory sister asking where the "boobies" were (shut up everyone)
- Breakfast at Ant's Pants sunday mid-afternoon
- Pizza Party time
- Logan's Run
- Rory's "bangin'" mix tape
- Lea and Leah sandwiching Harold on the dance floor
- Dance parting!
- Wing-ageddon drunken chants
- Irish cheers
- Rory head butting shane, and slapping Pat (I was too drunk to actually see the slap)
- I lost my wallet and found it!
- Rory sister lost her camera and found it!
-ALL CLASSIC ROCK playing at the dive. ALL CLASSIC ROCK sing alongs
Now... The lowlights:
- Waking up drunk two days in a row
- Smelling like straight alcohol on "Open house" day at work and scaring atleast three parents (might also be a highlight)
- 2 dollar jager shots
- Being too drunk to get cheese fries with everyone
- I hurt my knee again. Everytime I get drunk I banged the hell out of myself. You should see it, it is all scabby and gross!
- I am going to be made fun of for weeks because of the "couch" incident... DAMN
- The group as a whole smelled pretty nasty.
what is going to happen tonight
rum apple cider party
to get ready for
WING-AGEDDON
out of control.
not for long. I have been doing a lot of sketches for the show in may.
I also owe Rory's sister a nice apology drawing,
hell rachael too.

It's a good way to wake up
So last night was out of control.
I danced with a million plus people.
I woke up drunk.
We showed up late for work.
Rory smells like alcohol.
Pretty AWESOME time.
There was even a melrose diner trip, as we looked for the Republican.
Today is going to be pretty fun.
Carnival at 3.
TA meeting tonight.
My down fall last night, scratch that, Rory and I's downfall last night was someone bringing out most loathed, and most loved enemy...
Mr. Whiskey.
It did beef up my dancing skills, and Rory protected me from anyone that got grabby.
All and All I wish Harold's birthday was everyday!
I also got to talk about comics for a while, and we played Mario paint.
HOORAY!

It takes a long time, but God dies too. Not before he sticks it to you.
So it took me knowing I am having a house guest, but my apartment is finally clean.
It was pretty bad...
things are turning around....
It was pretty bad...
things are turning around....
Because I never sleep alone.
I am sorry to report that there were very little to no stories about my day yesterday.
The carnival was rained out.
I am going to try and go tonight before Harold's birthday party.
All my friends are excited about the carnival because of the "Carnival food" but I grew up at the shore. The thought of funnel cake makes me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I am from the home of the fried Oreo...
I am kind of excited about about eating a waffel ice cream sandwich... Mostly for the memories of eating the sandwich.
I do want to win a fish! I won a fish at the boardwalk one time and it stayed alive all summer in a salad bowl. I fed it hard pretzels. I think my mom one day just flushed it down the toliet because she was tired of seeing it on the kitchen counter. I don't remember what I named it.
I have been through so many pets in my life time. Nothing like being a neglected kid, because to make up for anything bad you get a pet.
Let's think...
There was:
- Super Trooper, He was my canary. Well mostly my brothers. There are pictures of him sitting on my shoulder when I was a baby, and he would whistle when you whistled. He lived to be really old and when he died they told me he flew away.
-My golden retriever. I named him after the boy in honey I shrunk the kids because I thought at the time he was the greatest boy alive. I can't even remember his name now. Then one day someone came to pick up his "missing dog" and then all of a sudden we moved... I thought there was something fishy about that. Especially since the person that came to claim him just happened to know the name I gave him...
-For a short while I had a rabbit. We named him freddy because he would claw up my mom really bad. I got him on easter, but that was the year we had easter two weeks late because we couldn't find my mom... I was a kid so I only know that from being told as an adult. Anyway the rabbit had floppy ears. He never scratched me, but would scratch the hell out of my mom... One day when I came home from school I found out that "he ran away" too. Except we lived on the third floor on an apartment building pretty much in someones attic... How was he so clever?
-Then there was another dog, he was a scotish something or other. He was really old and did not like kids. He did love to chase and eat tennis balls. He got "lost in a move"
-We had a dog Rocco. By far the best of the pets! Half boxer, half pitbull. He was so smart, and liked wearing a seat belt in the car. He was really smart and had green eyes. He also had a rain coat, because he was afraid of the rain and if you didn't put the rain coat on he wouldn't go outside, and would poop in the house. We had to get rid of him because we moved to a small apartment in Somers Point... They didn't allow pets, but the stupidest part about that was we ended up getting another dog that I named something stupid that chewed EVERYTHING! This dog had such a problem that it would chew the walls. One time we came home from shopping, the dog tore apart the carpet and the padding under the carpet. He was biting the floor boards, it was upsetting.
-We also had a cat for a while that I got by saving him from a car. He was in the middle of the road and I ran out because a big truck was about to smash his little kitty face. He was all black and chased beetles, so I names him beetle. My mom one christmas made him a stocking and since she only graduated up to the 8th grade, wrote beadel on the stocking, it would have been cute if my mom was not 36 at the time.
-Then there was Muffy. Now that was a good dog. I had him for a while because he lived at with my godmom. He was a toy poodle who loved to chase slippers. He would cry if you hugged people and not him because he was jealous. I would paint his nails when I was a kid. (I would never paint my own, because of an incident when I was a kid involving fake nails and pizza hut, I did however paint my nails once before going over to Paul's because I bruised my finger nails soooo bad that it looked really gross, but I painted them and it looked horrible, and that was now five months ago)Muffy lost an eye to my godmom's girlfriend's dog. Her dog was named Maggie, it was a good dog, until she got brain cancer and wait ape shit on muffy.
Both dogs are dead now... they will be missed.
-I can't forget my dog The Dude.. I did not name him, AT ALL. I wanted his name to be elvis or something like that. He was a really cute dog, but we lived in a house with five people, and there was no order for the dog to be properly trained. He did wear a tux to our halloween party, and pretty fun. My roomates got rid of him when I went to the shore. I wish I still had him sometimes, but I really don't have time for a dog.
- I had a kangaroo rat for a little bit, I think his name was squeaker, I wasn't attached to him, and I forget when happen to him.
- I had lizards, they were kind of cool. They changed colors, OH and I had a pretty bad ass iguana! That iguana was friends with the cat and I swear to god they would take naps together. The iguana got so big that the cat could sit on it and they would move around the house. Eventaully he got too big and would crack the glass of out of his cage anytime he wanted out. We gave him to the Ocean city aquarium, which a year later burnt down. RIP iggy.
-I went through about four more birds, but I would always feel bad as a kid that they had to stay in the apartment and would let them fly out the window. My mom thought it was an accident everytime so she kept buying me new birds... Finally after the forth one I wasn't allowed to have birds anymore. I had one more bird at my godmom's house too, that got out of its cage while My godmom, me, and my friend Kristin were at the "Good Ole' days" festival. My dog muffy chased him down and bit out all his feathers. You would not believe how many feathers a little bird like that has. We would have thought that he just hit the ceiling fan it the dog didn't come out of my moms bedroom with a feather in his mouth.
- Finally my last two pets and one I still have, Benny and The boo.
Benny I got off of the internet. He was a really great cat and still is. He lives with Abi now. We decided to switch cats, because though I love Benny, Benny really loved Abi more. When I got Benny I was still dating Pat, and I had red hair. As soon as I saw him I hugged him a million times. Pat looked at me and said that I reminded him of Elmyra from Tiny Toons "I am going to hug him, and squeeze him, and never let him go". With my pet track record he might have been right.
The boo was purchased at the Cat Vet on south street. Abi got him one day when he was high and walking down south street.
The boo is still alive and well. Benny is alive... kind of well.
ok this post is entirely too long.
more about my pets some other time...
I think i got carried away being bored at work.
The carnival was rained out.
I am going to try and go tonight before Harold's birthday party.
All my friends are excited about the carnival because of the "Carnival food" but I grew up at the shore. The thought of funnel cake makes me throw up in my mouth a little bit. I am from the home of the fried Oreo...
I am kind of excited about about eating a waffel ice cream sandwich... Mostly for the memories of eating the sandwich.
I do want to win a fish! I won a fish at the boardwalk one time and it stayed alive all summer in a salad bowl. I fed it hard pretzels. I think my mom one day just flushed it down the toliet because she was tired of seeing it on the kitchen counter. I don't remember what I named it.
I have been through so many pets in my life time. Nothing like being a neglected kid, because to make up for anything bad you get a pet.
Let's think...
There was:
- Super Trooper, He was my canary. Well mostly my brothers. There are pictures of him sitting on my shoulder when I was a baby, and he would whistle when you whistled. He lived to be really old and when he died they told me he flew away.
-My golden retriever. I named him after the boy in honey I shrunk the kids because I thought at the time he was the greatest boy alive. I can't even remember his name now. Then one day someone came to pick up his "missing dog" and then all of a sudden we moved... I thought there was something fishy about that. Especially since the person that came to claim him just happened to know the name I gave him...
-For a short while I had a rabbit. We named him freddy because he would claw up my mom really bad. I got him on easter, but that was the year we had easter two weeks late because we couldn't find my mom... I was a kid so I only know that from being told as an adult. Anyway the rabbit had floppy ears. He never scratched me, but would scratch the hell out of my mom... One day when I came home from school I found out that "he ran away" too. Except we lived on the third floor on an apartment building pretty much in someones attic... How was he so clever?
-Then there was another dog, he was a scotish something or other. He was really old and did not like kids. He did love to chase and eat tennis balls. He got "lost in a move"
-We had a dog Rocco. By far the best of the pets! Half boxer, half pitbull. He was so smart, and liked wearing a seat belt in the car. He was really smart and had green eyes. He also had a rain coat, because he was afraid of the rain and if you didn't put the rain coat on he wouldn't go outside, and would poop in the house. We had to get rid of him because we moved to a small apartment in Somers Point... They didn't allow pets, but the stupidest part about that was we ended up getting another dog that I named something stupid that chewed EVERYTHING! This dog had such a problem that it would chew the walls. One time we came home from shopping, the dog tore apart the carpet and the padding under the carpet. He was biting the floor boards, it was upsetting.
-We also had a cat for a while that I got by saving him from a car. He was in the middle of the road and I ran out because a big truck was about to smash his little kitty face. He was all black and chased beetles, so I names him beetle. My mom one christmas made him a stocking and since she only graduated up to the 8th grade, wrote beadel on the stocking, it would have been cute if my mom was not 36 at the time.
-Then there was Muffy. Now that was a good dog. I had him for a while because he lived at with my godmom. He was a toy poodle who loved to chase slippers. He would cry if you hugged people and not him because he was jealous. I would paint his nails when I was a kid. (I would never paint my own, because of an incident when I was a kid involving fake nails and pizza hut, I did however paint my nails once before going over to Paul's because I bruised my finger nails soooo bad that it looked really gross, but I painted them and it looked horrible, and that was now five months ago)Muffy lost an eye to my godmom's girlfriend's dog. Her dog was named Maggie, it was a good dog, until she got brain cancer and wait ape shit on muffy.
Both dogs are dead now... they will be missed.
-I can't forget my dog The Dude.. I did not name him, AT ALL. I wanted his name to be elvis or something like that. He was a really cute dog, but we lived in a house with five people, and there was no order for the dog to be properly trained. He did wear a tux to our halloween party, and pretty fun. My roomates got rid of him when I went to the shore. I wish I still had him sometimes, but I really don't have time for a dog.
- I had a kangaroo rat for a little bit, I think his name was squeaker, I wasn't attached to him, and I forget when happen to him.
- I had lizards, they were kind of cool. They changed colors, OH and I had a pretty bad ass iguana! That iguana was friends with the cat and I swear to god they would take naps together. The iguana got so big that the cat could sit on it and they would move around the house. Eventaully he got too big and would crack the glass of out of his cage anytime he wanted out. We gave him to the Ocean city aquarium, which a year later burnt down. RIP iggy.
-I went through about four more birds, but I would always feel bad as a kid that they had to stay in the apartment and would let them fly out the window. My mom thought it was an accident everytime so she kept buying me new birds... Finally after the forth one I wasn't allowed to have birds anymore. I had one more bird at my godmom's house too, that got out of its cage while My godmom, me, and my friend Kristin were at the "Good Ole' days" festival. My dog muffy chased him down and bit out all his feathers. You would not believe how many feathers a little bird like that has. We would have thought that he just hit the ceiling fan it the dog didn't come out of my moms bedroom with a feather in his mouth.
- Finally my last two pets and one I still have, Benny and The boo.
Benny I got off of the internet. He was a really great cat and still is. He lives with Abi now. We decided to switch cats, because though I love Benny, Benny really loved Abi more.

And it's only you who can tear me apart
Grindhouse was just about the sickest thing I have ever seen.
I had to scream and cover my eyes at least ten times,
Rachael received so many elbows to the chest from me freaking out that I am suprised we are still friends.
My stomach feels really yucky today because my dinner last night consisted of twizzlers and slurpee's.
I really never re-capped how awesome Wing-Ageddon was this week.
One there was 14 of us this time!
We had tee- shirts drawn in sharpie.
In total all of us ate 250 wings, and the "winner" of the night was pat
eating 33 WINGS!
We had over 16 pitchers of beer,
and screamed a lot of awesome songs.
It was also Harlold's birthday, and they brought him out a piece of cake and we all sang to him.
The best part of the whole night was that we excited to queen, AND GOT ALMOST THE WHOLE BAR TO SING IT!
People high fived us on the way out and the bouncer pleasantly said "see you guys next week"
it was awesome. I am sure everyone on the wing-ageddon team will be riding this high until next week.
Bob and I also made up new rules for the wing eating competition.
From now on the winner of Wing-Ageddon will eat and drink that night for free!
All and all between Grindhouse, Wing-Ageddon, Friday night party, and saturday "wiggle fest" I am pretty excited about this week.
My jacket smells really bad after walking in the rain to the subway this morning. I think it might be time to wash it... or atleast febreeze the stink out of it.
I like this up swing of really fun events happening in my life. I am usually not this social of a person, but feeling blue is for the birds. I need to feel like something positive is happening around me.
I told my landlord yesterday that I will be moving out of my apartment at the end of June. I am going to throw my stuff in storage and couch surf for the rest of the summer. Kara and I should be finding a place at the end of June.
That also reminds me that Kelly and I are going to take a trip to Montreal. That should be pretty exciting!
if anyone really wanted to know the weather, they can just check my blog, the longer the blog the worse the weather is outside. THe students never come in when it is raining, snowing, or cold.
p.s.
I hate my job so much. I actually have to let this student back in the store that I caught stealing because he complained to the dean. Where the hell can you steal from a store and still be allowed back in....
I should have given that channel on the tv 70 dollars, then god would just take care of my enemies.

"You can't scare a Christian with heaven"
Ok,
I am going to write about wing-ageddon,
but first...
I don't have television.
I am watching someone else's tv right now,and I am watching channel 48...
this program is incredible.
It is a "prayer" channel.
But you have to send a "passover" pledge,
either
70 dollars, 700 dollars, or 7000 dollars.
And if you give this money, god is going to put angels in your house and "be the enemy of your enemy"
God, really bless America...
I am watching people cry over this man speaking, and every other word is trying to get money from the viewers.
This breaks my heart.
I better pledge 70 dollars to get it fixed...

Reach out touch faith
So I bought new underwear and socks yesterday and let me tell you, they feel excellent.
The socks have "arch support", which doesn't really work for me because I am flat footed, but it still feels nice and snug.
Yesterday Pat freaked out on me for wearing underwear out of the package. He said they spray this chemical on them that gives you cancer?
My favorite part of new underwear is wearing them out of the package... what if he is right?!?!
What if my lady bits get cancer from my underwear?! Oh no!
I cannot believe that it is already april 10th.
I have 7 days to get my art star application together...
I also have to get ready for a show that is 39 days away. I have nothing to put in it yet... crazy. I really need to get into gear because I do not want to put old work into this show.
I miss being a print shop tech. It was really fun and I got to work on the presses all day. Last summer was really insane because I was working 3 "real" jobs and than building my studio... This summer I am getting paid salary to work 20 hours a week. I am trying to get a second job for the summer because I don't know what to do with all this time. I am going to ask my cousin cathy to teach me how to bartend, so when I move to pittsburgh I can try to get a job doing that. That way I will have all day to make art and can work most nights.
I just realized that if I do get into CMU that I will be in Pittsburgh for four years. I hope I can handle that small of a city for that long. The last year of the grad program you spend in another country, so I guess it won't be that bad.
I am starting to make list of what I need to sell and what needs to be thrown away.
That includes people!
yikes.
Last night was pretty amazing, Rachael, Rory and I made the Wing-ageddon tee shirts. They are fantastic. I decided on going with the name "Lil Left Wing"
actually I think it is worth posting all the Wing-Ageddon names
1) The Wing Reaper (Pat)
2) Wingie the Pooh (Rachael)
3) Wolverwing (Bob)
4) John Wing Gacy (Greg)
5) Dr. Martin Luther Wing Jr. (Harold)
6) Wingie Wonka (Rory)
7) Lil Left Wing (Lea)
8) Wing Bone (Shawna)
9) "Wingus" Khan (Dustin)
More tee shirts were made, but they did not create names yet.
It was really fun, until 1 in the morning, and I still had to bike home.
We did watch Pootie Tang while making the shirts, and Rachael ordered cheese fries, so I overall pretty great night. The more I think about it yesterday was fantastic. Bob and I went and got burritos, and he bought me ice cream from Rita's (don't believe their size chart a kiddie cone is HUGE). Walking to Rachael's bob was telling me a story and as we walked by this guy tending to flowers in a pot outside of his house, if you looked down HIS WHOLE BUTT was showing... Bob made a comment as we walked by, pretending it was part of the story, and says "the balls were all out"!
We both looked down at this man's exposed ass and I lost it.
That kind of stuff always happens to me and bob. I mean we are always seeing old man butt. Especially bob
I think the only stink part of yesterday was getting razed by my friends for wearing "the chump suit".
I am a real push over, I mean I am assertive and outspoken, etc. etc., but when someone is in need no matter how crappy they have been I jump right to it.
I mean my friends know that I just really like helping people, but sometimes it gets old hearing about how much of a "sucker" I am.
I forget that most people have negative agenda's in life. Why would I want to keep something like that in mind? Why would I want to condition myself to be cautious of people. I am sure in the long run it would save me a lot of headache's and heartache's but it just doesn't seem worth it.
That last paragraph actually makes me seem defenseless. That is not the case, I am very careful of who I let into my life, but once they are in, they are really in.
Oh well.
This is becoming a long post, for a slow day.
I have actually walked away from it, come back to it and start writing again.
So if this seems disjointed, well that is why.
Not that anyone reads through these things. They scroll down them, look for their name, and continue on.
I write all my personal dirt in my real journal, so the scroll down method will not work this time!
I will end this on this note...
it is 10:10
make a wish!

I can't take it!
So wing-ageddon is tomorrow.
I mean I can't believe it came around again so soon.
Tuesday is Def the new saturday!
PLUS THE SHIELD.
I have a feeling that tomorrow's wing-ageddon is going to be more gnarly than the last time. I am not sure that it is possible.
The wing-ageddon team's new goal is to fill the whole bottom floor of McGillian's with wing-ageddon patrons. Another goal is to NOT get thrown out of the bar until at least close to the final episode of the shield.
Tonight Rachael and I are making shirts for everyone to celebrate tomorrow, and rumor has it there will be a guest appearance BY RICK RITTER! holy crap!
Rory said that he wants an extra extra small shirt, with the nipples cut out on it...
Done and Done
This weekend in general was pretty awesome.
Friday night at Sal's was a lot of fun, I got a bunch of free stella because my friends bribed me to stay and hang out. I know my friends really love me, because they were all drinking Pabst, but to get me to stay, bought me Stella. For what it cost them to keep me there and drinking they could have bought 30 pabst at the bar.
Saturday I went to Ant's Pants, with my "new" friend Shane and my old friend Dustin.
Shane, Rachael, Curt and I all met up and we took a brisk walk to Northern Liberities and got DELICIOUS PIZZA! We also created team adult. We made Curt the captain, and created slogans, things like "I am too old for this" or "I am tall enough for this ride" or "I will give you something to cry about". We ended the night in roxborough at Pat's dying easter eggs, drinking beer, and watching the Phillies game. There was also an imprompt to trip to murphy's tavern. Never listen to Pat, because Murphy's tavern is NOT at the corner.
Sunday I had some QT with Kelly over breakfast, where I learned "The Lesson of the Cake" it was a similar lesson to "January 14th, 2007". I did however successfully get the cake and met up with my family. We had some real "family" moments, and I got to eat a lot of really good food.
One set back was breaking my DVD player at the beginning of last week, but fortunately I paid to the extra money for a large screen G5 and could watch the office on that!
I have already accomplished a lot this morning.
I had to get up at 6 in the morning to play doctor with a cat.
I have come to terms that animals cannot abuse drugs and that this cat needs needles to live, so I am not bothered by it. I am pretty sure that I don't need to hug the cat so much after I give him the shot... but I feel so bad that he has to get a shot twice a day. OK I am officially ridiculous.
I do kind of freak out a little bit when putting the cap on the needles thinking it is going to prick me! I am a tattoo artist, how is it possible to be afraid of needles!
back to my morning,
Got to work
drew a diagram of my store
helped re-stock the store
worked on paper work
listen to johnny guitar watson
Ok I made a new cd for my store, and we have to listen to it right now.
It has irma thomas on it... YES!
HAVE A GOOD WING-AGEDDON EVE EVERYONE!

my alarm batteries died
Yep you read the head line,
So I didn't wake up until 7:49.
Rory has to go open the store... bummer...
BUT!
I do get to listen to the beach boys and spank my cat all morning....
not a bad trade off.

4:44 make a wish
There is 16 minutes left until I get to go home.
Rory and I decided on getting Pizza, which is the best news of the day.
I keep having internal battles with myself.
My bones are shaking the foundation.
There is an officer in the store right now.
He drives us crazy! He just explained that the free life savers make him "pucker up"
but "there is no reason that he should pucker-up becasue he has no one to kiss"
So much sexual harrassment at this store...
I should be uncomfortable, but unfortunately I am conditioned to ignore such things.

in the aftermath
Wing-ageddon kicked my butt.
We are the most hated group at McGillian's...
and that is really funny.
All of us are very out of place.
I think that we could easily clear the bar with the jukebox they have.
and that is our goal for next time!
Things that were accomplished at Wing-ageddon
-Nick names for the 8 core members
Members include: Rory, Bob, Lea, Pat, Rachael, Kara, Greg, and Dustin.
-Design for our tee-shirt was decided on.
-Screaming of the Darkness song "I believe in a thing called love"
-Screaming of "Dirty Deeds"
-Over 130 wings consumed.
-Over 7 pitchers of beer and two stella's consumed.
-Atleast 40 Dustin Zing jokes, and one on Bob.
All and All a great night!
All followed by The Shield...
And going to another bar after The Shield...
I am only drinking on Tuesdays from now on...
my day at work is going to be gross.

I wonder how many people cursed the circus
Yesterday near Rittenhouse as I was sitting on some steps, I looked out and saw a sea of parking tickets. I thought it was unreal how many people illegaly parked. I then remembered it was April fools day.
How I wished all the tickets had been the cities way of playing a practical joke. Turns out that the circus was playing an April fools joke, and made a bunch of coupons that looked like parking tickets.
Here is my tip on how to make yourself feel good for the moment:
Go to yahoo and search the artist Samantha Simpson, and look at her large works on paper.
If it doesn't make you smile, nothing will ever again.
Wings tomorrow night... that is TNT dyno-mite...
