wow, these are pretty amazing...11/11/2007 14:45 #42079
Whoa... wtf just happened??What a weird night... I'm kind of wondering if I was somehow drugged or something. (but I don't actually believe I was.)
I was on call friday night, which was blessedly quiet for the first time in about a month. hallelelujah.
In the morning I met my friend for breakfast... and she told me a story about her night. Her (now-ex) boyfriend called her SIXTY-FOUR times, over the course of 3 hours. And left her 19 voicemails. You could tell he wasn't getting the response he wanted, so he was mixing up his technique. Alternating between "I love you I miss you please call me back" and "ok you are a cunt, get the dicks out of your mouth and call me back." Yeah.... that's the right way to win her back. Then while I was listening to his messages, he called eleven more times.
Point: guys are psycho too.
And then somehow I think there was a time warp from about 11am til 7pm. I seriously don't know where that time went, but I did none of the things I was supposed to. I didn't know what I was going to do that night since I had never made plans. A friend was maybe going to come to town, but at the last minute she couldn't. I was maybe going to go to some yacht club thing, but didn't hear back about that. Then the friend that blew me off last week texted me to try to make up, and said that if I'm ready to forgive him, he had an idea for something super-fun.
"Flash Party" at Essex. I guess there's sort of an art co-op behind the essex st pub. I never knew that. But they were having some benefit last night. So I went. It was $40, but it was open bar, a band (complete with go-go dancers! for real!), and supposedly catered food. Though the catered food ended up being chips and salsa, oreos, pretzels, and peanut butter.
But I had two glasses of wine, and 2 beers. Which I guess is a decent amount to drink, but over 4+ hours it's not insane....
And I was SO DRUNK. I don't know what happened. It didn't hit me until about 2 am when we were at Towne, when I realized I could not eat, and all of the sudden HAD to be in bed, RIGHT THAT SECOND.
So I got home and went to bed, and couldn't get out of bed til 1 today.
Seriously, wtf! I mean I know my tolerance isn't what it used to be, and 4 drinks isn't nothing, but MAN!
So, now I need to try to get everything done that I was supposed to yesterday and today. Bleh....

I have a theory as to what happened. First of all I have heard that if you drink wine and aren't used to it it can really fuck you up. I wonder if you had more then two glasses of wine and just remember it as two I have heard that can happen. The other thing that I have heard is that mixing types of alcohol can make things worse. Again these aren't facts just things I have heard. I know drinking beer on top of alcohol is what caused everything I drank to come up at a Halloween party. I felt the beer hit my stomach and could feel something was wrong and tried to move to the front door and out onto the porch and couldn't move and the beer brought other stuff up with it, I was fine till then. Oh and (e:ladycroft) If you are reading this again I'm sorry for that, that is just another example of how awesome you are.

coupla thoughtsOk, so I was late for work AGAIN yesterday, because my car battery was dead AGAIN, because I left my lights on AGAIN. I'm not sure what my problem is.
But after a $10 cab ride to work, I'm a little paranoid, and so I just bought jumper cables that I can keep in my CAR, since they don't do me much good in my garage, AND I bought this battery pack car starter thing- supposedly it fits in the glove box. We'll see. But now I have more peace of mind.
I went to see a friend-of-a-friend's band at Mohawk the other night... I think I need to get out to see more music. But before the band came on they were playing sufjan stevens... I forgot how much I like him. So I put him on itunes, and some of his christmas stuff came on... And I hate to say this, but it almost got me feeling christmas-y. [check out my new user song. Sufjan Stevens doing "O come O come Emmanuel"] That, combined with the white chocolate peppermint lattes (in red cups, of course) that they're serving at work now. So now I'm jammin' to sufjan again, drinking hot cider, and (nearly) enjoying the chill in the air... I guess I am coming to terms with the fact that summer is REALLY over.
And today I chopped my hair some more... It's pretty short. Can barely get it in a pony tail anymore. But while I was there my haircutter lady/girl crush told me about THIS-
It's the Bikram Yoga place on elmwood.... burned down at about 3am this morning. Yikes! I had to go by to check it out... lots of gawkers. It's a pretty stone building... I wonder if it's rebuild-able...
Oh, and I found out that another friend-of-a-friend met someone through match.com- that supposedly I work with. Now i'm dying to know who it is!

That's so sad!
I used to walk by that place on the way to the Coop.
I hope they restore it completely.

OMG. I LOVE SUFJAN STEVENS!!! I think he has a voice direct from audio-heaven!
and OMG. How awful. That building was one of the prettiest around the Elmwood Strip. I always looked at it with pleasure. How sad. :/ Such beautiful buildings should not be allowed to have stoves and other fire hazards!

You got pics, yet the Buffalo news didn't. I thought I heard stuff last night. It's a pretty amazing restoration that got a giant setback. Hope the guy who did it can try again. Apparently the yoga place had a stove that did it.
The user sound is pretty cool, despite being a little premature.

who pays??Ok, so jason's post about paying for drinks reminded me of something.
My neighbor/best friend growing up lives in NYC now, and works for some big firm. And we've sort of lost touch. But sometimes I see her if I'm home for holidays. And at thanksgiving a couple years ago, I kept catching the end of conversations... things about book deals, being asked to pose for playboy, almost losing her job... Clearly there was some big story I had missed, and this was the aftermath. So I finally asked, and she said to look her up on snopes. So here we go-
(and snopes calls this 'undetermined, but- it's true.)
Basically, she met a guy. He emailed her, inviting her out. She forwarded the email to her friend, to see if she wanted to go too.
But in fact, she hit "reply" not "forward", and sent the message, intended for her friend, back to him. It's the kind of thing that is so easy to do, but it just makes me cringe.
Well, he forwarded it to everyone he knew. And apparently within a matter of hours she was getting emails from china, australia.... ranging from "you gold-digging bitch I hope you die alone" to "hey baby, *I* won't fall asleep!". And supposedly playboy contacted her. Here's her message-
"Ok first- here is the email I received from T, the new guy I met last week. If you want to go out, perhaps we can get him to pay for drinks at Park. Since we have not slept together, he will of course be trying to impress me and will, therefore, do anything I ask. Unlike John, who fell asleep during sex last night. i went over to his place last night around 11:30. We started having sex. When I noticed his eyes were closed for a little too long, I said "John wake up." At which point, he shot up saying "what'd I miss." Yes, I think that is a new low."
And the reason Jason's message made me think of this, was the 'we have not slept together yet, so he will do anything I ask' part. I mean really, is this how girls think??!!

Wow. Well, I guess if she was sending that info in a candid e-mail to a friend she must have done it before.
Unfortunately, people like that do exist. They're on the same level as the ones who think that you can sleep with someone to get them to like you. As a rule, sex as a weapon rarely works for extended periods.

I think that girls and boys should all ways pay for there own drinks. The reason is that drinks are expensive (some places) and if you don't like them enough to pay for them your self then you shouldn't be drinking in the first place.
In terms of who pays for food or drinks the ideal way to do it would be by who can aforrid it more. Of course you can't figure this out on a date or when going out. I go by the who invited who idea. If I ask you out I should be willing (within reason) to pay for things. That being said the person who was asked out if they find they like the person should pay for some of the drinks themselves.
I think the smartest way to do it is go someplace where they have ladies night and let the ladies buy 2 or sometimes even 3 for one drinks but with the guys money and that way everyone can get really wasted.
But see what happens when you try to use people like this lady did is that what goes around comes around or bad karma gets you and lots of people find out that you are no good, and that you are a bad lay. How else could someone sleep as you ride them up and down. Yes it can happen during a BJ if you also message them that can put them out or if they get off and you keep blowing them, but generaly the sex was bad if they passed out.

Sometimes I really wonder. Yes, the ugly truth is that people like that exist, and unfortunately there is no really easy way to determine their nature so we can preempt them. It's women like this that make me want to give up altogether and retreat to the man cave. You know that you're never going to mean shit to someone like that. God help the poor son of a bitch.
Of course, the good news is that they represent only a portion of the female population, the rest having various other idiosyncrasies. I think it is about finding out what you can deal with, and being okay with imperfection.
I do give you girls credit by the way, because it really is tough to separate the wheat from the chaff, whether it is Mr. Playboy or someone like this. It is just hard to know.

My rule is: I'll pay on the first date; but there'll be a second date if and only if she offers to pay. If she just sits there and doesn't offer, there's never a second date.
I just think it's good manners for women to, in this day and age, at least offer to pay.
I want a chick who wants a relationship with me, not my wallet.

'we have not slept together yet, so he will do anything I ask' quickly turns into "we have now slept together, so he does nothing I ask"....

offensive email roundup...So, I'm really sick of the cialis/etc spam emails that I get all day. Most of them get filtered as spam, but a few make it through. And there was one today, that just wouldn't delete. I don't know why, but it wouldn't go away. So I finally had to open it, and it had this lovely porn-spam-poem:
That's great you've got a gal that's hot
You wanna nail her juicy twat.
She's cute and taking, she's so nice!
But would your penile size suffice?
Not sure she will yearn for more?
You need a thing she would adore!
But how to get it long and thick?
Your only hope is MegaDik!
You'll get so wanted super-size
And see wild craving in her eyes!
Your shaft will pound her poon so deep,
Tonight you'll hardly fall asleep!
So try today this magic pill
And change your life at your own will!
Nice, huh??
And then, this one from my dad. Very politically incorrect and culturally insensitive and potentially offensive blah blah blah- but it made me laugh:
WIN 2 AIRLINE TICKETS ALL EXPENSES PAID TO THE 2008 OLYMPIC GAMES IN
PEKING , CHINA .

Halloween is such a great time of year because of all the Halloween themed spam. Last year I received one with an image of Frankenstein holding a bottle of yohimbe or something with the caption "Make Her Scream"
It really makes me feel bad having both a computer and a dick.

hell yeah those are awesome! I wouldn't doubt they're real- look at those people who tat their whole bodies! That has to take forever!!
Absolutely gorgeous! Thanks!
Is that a Photoshop trick, or does someone actually sit there for hours illustrating peoples' hands like zoo animals? Whoa.
Good one, Doctah Jenks. :-)
Those are amazing.
