Good things about spot tonight-
1: the hot guy working there who was very nice and complimented me on my necklace, and gave me a free cookie on round 2. (he loves me. I know it.)
2: finally did a little studying
3: yummy drinks/food
4: stalking (e:mike) without his (or even my) knowledge. (sorry (e:mike). I wasn't sure enough it was you to say hi. But I was in the purple sweater. Hi!)
5: seeing a friend from work.
Bad things about spot tonight-
1: conspicuous absence of unnamed twin(s) despite near-bribery with cough drops.
2: lack of seating due to 8-person tables being "taken" by two people.
3: did not do enough studying
4: (e:Salvatore) did not say hello.
5: impending loss of sanity as I started to wonder if every person who walked through the door was from (e:strip) and I just couldn't recognize them.
Though 1 & 4 may not be all bad, as they would have worsened 3
Since this is starting to sound like a word problem, I will stop.

tidbitsCategory: potpourri
Bleh. I'm sick of being sick.
And I must go study.
But a few things to share.
First, some lyrics from a song i like-
I've kissed you in France and I've kissed you in Spain.
I've kissed you in places I'd better not name.
I've seen the sun go down on Sacre Coeur,
but I like it much better going down on you.
And then a silly doctor joke:
First day of anatomy lab, the prof tells the new med students "there are two rules. One- you can not be disgusted about any part of the body." then he sticks a finger in the cadaver's ass, then then puts it in his mouth. And says "see, now you all do it." And they hemmed and hawed, but eventually they all did it. Then he said "rule #2: pay attention. You will see I put my middle finger in the ass, and my index finger in my mouth."

Yeah, I saw the low live at thurs in the square this summer. But unfortunately that night goes down on my list of top ten worst nights (for (mostly) unrelated reasons), so now listening to them is sort of bittersweet. Still love the songs, but kind of painful to hear. Did hear 'bleed a little while tonight' at colter bay last weekend though, which surprised me.

here's a joke for ya (not a dr. one, but funny none the less:) two fish are in their tank. one turns to the other and says "you man the guns and i'll drive" great song, no one down here really knows the Low, and you can't even find them in the jukeboxes. have you ever seen them live?

Sick? Again?!Category: wtf!!
This is not supposed to happen to me. I never get sick!! Now this is the third time since thanksgiving! I have been trapped in the hospital all day today, feeling my throat get more and more sore and my ears closing up, with nothing I can do about it and no access to the stash of cold medicine I have at home. I mean really, my EARS? You're not supposed to get ear infections after about age 5. I have been sneaking to the ER to steal shots of children's liquid tylenol.
Damn kids... germy little bastards! ;)
Or if not the kids... who else can I blame.... ladycroft? Mom, 500miles away? Josh who i haven't met, weren't you sick lately? hmm...
this is terrible timing too, since I have a huge exam on saturday, and cannot spend this whole week sick in bed sleeping.
So, I am going to try to sleep a little now, instead of trying to get AM work all tucked in in advance. Which means I will have to stay late, but I don't care; I just really want to be in bed.
And on that note, a big hot cup of tea (and to a lesser extent studying) at spot/aroma/somewhere tomorrow after work (>12?) sounds tempting...
If you see me there, say hi. I promise not to breathe on you.
G'night,
Sicky
PS of course: Happy Birthday Paul! Thanks for all you do!

Echinacea and throat comfort teas helps me when i am sickly. Get better soon.
Everytime i am sick, i feel it in my ears first. I have had ear infections since i was a kid, and never stopped having them. When i lived in East Tennessee, i developed seasonal alergies (as so many people living near the Smokey Mountains tend to -- some of that "smoke" is really pollen particles) and the doc i went to told me i had the ear canals of a 10 year old. Hey, at least not all of me is aging!

Et tu Jenks?
I'm sitting here doing salt gargles at midnight. For me, it was that damn flight back from Burbank. Several of us caught something in that flight.
Hope you feel better soon. Have some ginger tea with honey.

friendsCategory: drunk
So I'd been planning on a nice quiet weekend full of lots of studying, but then suddenly I grew a pair and gave the boy the old heave-ho. Which was kind of traumatic. And brought about insistant invitations for imbibition. So after a bit of a fiasco of a dinner at sahara grill (food was mediocre at best and service was pretty terrible), (e:ladycroft) and I parted ways and I met some people at at Colter Bay, and we eventually migrated to Mother's. It was a blah night. I can't lie, I would not have been opposed to a little attention from the boys, might have even been willing to give out some digits... Even wore my favorite sexy bra "just in case". Silly me- I should know by now that wearing sexy underwear is a guarantee that I will go home alone.
So it was an ok night. I was sort of expecting lots of shots, etc. But no. Pretty tame. Conversation was inevitably medical, which gets old pretty fast- especially for the poor non-medical people involved. Now, I enjoy talking about shopping and makeup etc, but I realized- I need more boy-friends. not boyfriends (well that too), but male friends...
In college I didn't really date anyone, and my group of friends was largely guys. It was awesome. Then mostly guys again in DC. Then in New Orleans I dated the same guy for 3 years, and that was my life. Then in Chicago was the first time I really had girlfriends. And it was fun. Kind of a new experience... Then my first year in Buffalo was spent with the ex. And now I'm single again. And need people to go out with. And I find I have mostly girlfriends. Which is great. But sometimes I don't want to TALK about everything. I just want to drink and tell dirty jokes and play games... to be one of the guys.
I guess my point is- I find myself with some slots open in my friend roster.
Any takers? Tryouts will be held over wings and beer.
And now, time for a (hopefully) dreamless, tearless sleep...

Firstly when you got the bill you should have asked for the manager. A waiter or waitress will not give you food for free, you have to get someone a step up, and complain to them (in a nice way). I take that back good resturants will offer not to charge you, if the food is bad. I have been to returants where they said since I didn't like the food they would give it to me for free. The times that it has happenend to me it wasn't that the food was bad, it was something I tried but just didn't like.
On the friends bit. Yeah trying out would be cool. But to be honest I would just wind up not calling you (even though you look better then most of my friends) just like I never call them. Wings are awesome, but I never really go out much other then to Concerts, Sports and Movies. I'm sure you will have no problem finding Boy Friends and boyfriends, ok take care.

Yah, the food was shite last night. Everything was off. I really think that girl just scraped your fries off your wrong order and dumped them on a little plate for me.

I'm a guy and I have to give you my totally objective opinion on this: I'm amazing, like so much thunder. Me and you and Ladycroft will drink and play darts some day! Or better yet, my friend's band is playing the Led Zeppelin tribute at Nietszche's this week, we could all go to that.

agreed, but falafal bar was way too crowded, so we decided to give sahara a second chance. first the waitress just brought me the completely wrong thing, and forgot timika's fries. then by the time she brought my right food- everyone else was totally finished eating. they thought i'd eaten- didn't realize i hadn't even gotten my food yet. and then- no discount at all on the bill. i thought she should have given me mine for free. but whatever, it was like $5. But still, a disappointing experience.
p.s. auditions can be open for guys and for girls-who-can-handle-being-one-of-the-guys-and-aren't-offended-by-dirty-jokes-and-sex-talk-and-like-non-froofy-drinks.

What's going on up there? (e:peeps), I fully expect you to be lining up for the auditions starting TODAY!

PS: Sahara Grill is mediocre indeed. Falafel Bar is much better.

phew... I woke up this morning and thought "oh god, what sort of shit did I drunkenly post last night?" Fortunately I don't think it's anything too offensive or off the wall.

Take shower, but dont shave, then go out-- You are gauranteed to get some that night.
I didn't really have female friends until this past year or so. Where I work, there are more females then males. It took awhile to learn how to be 'friends' with a girl..especially co workers (as past jobs were male dominated)- other than my close long time friends that I have had since a kid..I have noticed that some of my guy relationships have changed once they have a serious girlfriend. Ya know, those guys that drop off the planet and won't consort with any other female due to their fear of what the g/f will think.. haha.
but yeh, talking is nice, but it can't be the only thing. Why not drink beer, hoot at guys and tell lewd stories? Now thats the 'girl time' I am talking about.

I didn't see you to say hello! You saw me and said nothing! Not very nice if you ask me.
whoa? Were all the estrippers at Spot and I had no idea about any of them. That definetely was me in that picture. Next time say hello. Luckily that photo is from the night I was doing practice interviews with my friend, not the scandalous night before.
haha, i hear that josh is always in a vest.
I have proff that Josh and Jason are seen toghather, if you look at my Halloween pics Josh is in a vest a belive and jason is in a monks outfit.
young, cute, dark curly hair, several piercings... was wearing a red bandana in his hair, and a sort-of claddagh pattern tshirt (a crown over hands holding a muffin, instead of a heart. It was a cool shirt. No idea what it was for.) He was very friendly...
Who's your hot guy? I hope we don't have crushes on the same boy! Ha-ha.
I prefer the term anti-life.
Actually, check that, I'm going to be the first person ever to be honest about it. I'm Pro-Death.
I'm pro-choice, legally speaking.
Whoa... "murder the unborn"??? Please don't go all pro-lifey on me...
I was uber sick Jenks, sorry, I couldn't leave. NyQuil and rest makes me feel better though.
And, morals are relative. Some people think it's okay to murder the unborn. Others think it's okay to not punish people who prey on children. I prefer not to be associated with those types.
uhoh boys, the gloves are off!
You gonna take that sitting down?
I say it's time to STEP UP!
;)
Chalk the twins in the same category as Sasquatch, BigFoot, Yeti and Republicans with morals.
Though I'm confident we'll find BigFoot before we can find any evidence of the latter... ;-)
Ahhh, the ever elusive twins.. I have heard about them. There is an occasional sighting reported, so yes, they do exist. Try their natural habitat..lure them out with wings and beer. Its worth a shot..
:)
Conspicuous? Nobody has used that word in reference to me before!
