Since I stopped writing this blog new things on the web have taken shape which kind of make updating this thing seem outmoded. I hoped you had fun if you landed here by searching for something or just hitting next blog or whatever. The new blog will be better trust me. At least it will be updated more often.
:)
Thanks

I forget where I left off...
I'm too lazy to look right now. So I've begun a new writing project and a new blog for it, but I don't want to let this blog totally fall by the wayside as I had for the last year. So writing that has consumed me for now and I'm happy to be on that project.
This past weekend I decided I need to take a break from drinking as it's really fucking my shit up in a major way. Like I'm so fucked up it isn't even funny. I was supposed to meet my friends Scott and Ryan on Sunday and didn't do that. I really should have and it's not like I drnk on Sunday, I just forgot that in addition to getting my taxes done by Scott I was supposed to try out to be the leadsinger in their new band. Yeah, my life is like that now. Everything's weird. I'll write more later.

WTF pt. 1
So I'm back at blogging after a nearly year long unintentional hiatus. I'm trying to write another blog right now, so that has made me want to start this thing up again. Damn, I can't believe I've been on Blogger, in one capacity or another for 4 and a half years. That just seems crazy and I remember when I started Alienface back in 2005. It was only one post for a few months, maybe like 3 and then it started and I had fun killing time with it when I used to have my office job. Good memories, not that my life right now isn't OK too.
Damn, I have no idea where to start to wrap up all the things that have happened since the last time I wrote. Quick rundown: Got a new job at Pete's, got a girlfriend, got dumped, quit my restaurant job in favor of being a bartender, now generally happy and just trying to get back into writing. :) (ugggh Facebook habit)
I'm sure as time goes on with this blog and as I try to kick it's ass into gear again, I'll go into more detail about certain things that I may have left out or just kind of glossed over, but it's been such a crazy time that I don't know where to begin, so I'll just let things come about organically. If you're reading this I'd love to hear from you and how you found it/what you think.
Let me just bring you up to speed on where things are today, nearly the end of March 2010. I fucking still live with my Mom due to financial troubles on both our ends and her lack of wanting to get her situation right. I have also been lolligagging when it comes to my finances as I not only work at a bar, but also drink way, way, way too often and therefore spend all of my money, which is just terrible. I have it curbed pretty well for now, but for a while there, I was spending several hundred a month on a bar tab. So pathetic. This was happening mostly at the beginning of this year. It was totally the worst, I have never scraped by with bills or anything else so bad in my life. All because I would just go to the bar every night and blow $40 and try to forget my problems. It was terrible, but I've stopped that and am trying to rebuild my savings once again. I think the problem is that I have so few monthly bills that I forget I should be saving money like I used to.
Well, whatever, blogging will be a good distraction and a nice outlet.

Snoozy Monday
Uggghh. I have two days off and nothing to do. I want to head out of the house today and maybe just go to the bookstore or something. I haven't seen George in forever and I'd really like to see him if he's there.
The past two days here have been rainy and pretty dreary. I worked yesterday and that was cool. Then I went out to say Bon Voyage to a friend that is headed to Europe. I hope she has a great trip!
Last night I stayed up too late and was doing a little art on the computer. i have no cellphone right now. Again. I got it wet this time and it totally died. It turned on long enough for me to call one person and then died again. This is after I dried it out for a day. Oh well, the phone only cost $9 anyway.
This weekend was alright. I had fun at work on Friday and then went to a pretty decent party. Saturday I chilled at Pete's for way too long and am definitely going to avoid that today and tomorrow. I really need to start putting more money in the bank. Saving up is something I'm great at, but lately haven't really thought much about it.

Kiss of death
Never write that you're going to post more. I've gone almost a month without an update, but some stuff has gone on. I've been spending too much time at Pete's lately. Way too much time. It's not even that I'm really drinking that much I just go there to hang out with the crew really. Some cool kids there that I'm glad I've become friends with over the course of the last few months. Now is the time though where I'm realizing I need to knock it off.
This past weekend I went to VA to be a witness to the baptism of my new Goddaughter, which makes me a Godfather, which is cool. I got to ride in a helicopter and that was the thrill of a lifetime as well. The drive down there was five hours of sheer enjoyment. Just cranking tunes and speeding down the highway. I listened to Animal Collective, the new Dan Deacon album called 'Bromst', which I really like, and some metal. My friend got me into this band called All Shall Perish whose latest album 'Awaken The Dreamers' definitely made it easier to hit the gas and avoid the wackos on the DC beltway. I also listened to the last Vetiver album. I've had it forever, but never bothered to listen to it until this weekend. It's pretty good, but I haven't bothered to track down any other stuff by them.
I've been so tired since I got back though. When I came back Monday evening I didn't even stop home, I just went straight to Pete's. That was boring, so I went home only to find plumbers there and no running water. So I went back to Pete's and tried to text people to find something to do. I ended up going and hanging out with my friends in their backyard. They have a sweet pond back there where there are frogs and all sorts of stuff. They're having a party there on Friday, so that should definitely be fun.
Yesterday I worked, but made the worst money ever. Work was fun though and I worked with all cool people. I have a weird thing going on right now, but that's nothing new. I don't feel like writing about it here, but it's kind of consuming my mind. I've been spending too much time on Facebook, which is lame as fuck too. Blaaaaaaaaaah. I'll write more soon.

A little lost...
Heard this on Uhh Yeah Dude (ep 163. see links) and was instantly in love with it. Got the album but have yet to really go through it. I'll update soon.
