Riverdales - I wanna be alright |
] |
man i'm so bored. lonely a bit. drunk a bit. not enough to get away from the lonely though. damn you alcohol. you never work anymore!
anyways. i didn't really know what my plans were for today. i knew i had band practice. i knew i was one pissed off motherfucker. last night at the show at Bernie's... my fucking bass got "stolen"... (or so we thought). i talked to all the bands etc and no one had the motherfucker. i'm like GRR MOTHERFUCKER. I'M IN SUCH A BAD MOOD. And my fucking amp was supposed to be back at 1pm on saturday so we could practice at 2! so guess what... it shows up at 2... BUT ONLY THE AMP, NOT THE CABINET! Motherfuckers.... What-the-fuck ever. Adam had the great idea of just plugging the bass traight into the PA.. and after a little EQ it sounded Okay and we started practice. I don't know what to do about Brandie. She's got so much potential as a singer... but I'm the singer... and she can't sing backup vocals cuz she can barely keep up on guitar (barely is defined as "not fucking able to at all"). Anyways... at around 4pm Alex shows up with the cabinet.. and *woah*... one of the bands actually *DID* have my bass (Kill the Hippies... who I have met many of times and last night we sat and talked about how shitty it was that my bass was stolen.. )... Apparently they grabbed the wrong bag. Who would of thought... (I would of, since I checked all the other bands's bags cuz I'm a big fucking asshole with a couple big assholes making sure asshole-ryan doesn't get into asshole-trouble... but I know KTH too well to be an asshole... but not well enough to be an asshole...).... So anyways.... we practiced. It was okay... its neato and we sound fucking good. I really gotta give it up to adam, who is doing a great job of being the musician in the band... (unlike me who just sings shit into a microphone... but I do like my vocals a lot more than when the reacharounds started)... i went to the dube after that with brandie... cuz i needed foodstuff and i know brandie's hick-cincinnatti,kentucky-ass has never been there. I ran into alicia (who wasn't at larry's when i stopped by last night to wish her happy birthday, motherfucker)... and then two of my old students, Matt and Dorinda. That was sorta cool.
After hanging out with Brandie for a while I went back home. Jason from Little Orphan Anarchy stopped by to see if the Nurses were playing with them at Larry's tonight... I told him they definetly weren't and he really really REALLY needed to borrow the cymbal stands. Well after figuring out that there was no one in the world he could get them from, I let them borrow them (I knew that LOA was playing their last show tonight cuz Rich told me he was leaving town...). So Jason put me on the list and man... those kids bought me uber-beer. I probably put on a couple of pitchers tonight. This is the first time I've really heard them on a good PA that wasn't ringing my ears like a motherfucker. They've practiced in my basement (which has uber-echo from the cement walls and the vocals are only in monitors, not pointed out to fuck-os like me listening) but I really fucking dug them tonight. I'm thinking about trying to get together a "Funhundred Compilation" with all the fucko bands that practice in the basement/drink in our living room... (The Nurses, Little Orphan Anarchy, The Jeffs, Jesse and the Rippers, Infilskust, The Reacharounds, Lucky Shoes, Buster Hymen and the Penetrators [Fully Plugged, hidden track, drunk as fuck], And whomever else)... But I guess its too late to get LOA on there. Anyways. It was a great time. Some girl with an English accent hit on me. English accents ========================= Uber fucking sexy. But, she sorta went away... and what the fuck am I supposed to do with girls who hit on me anywas... Fuck them? hahaha... nah.
Anyways. I went home for a while... got hungry... got restless. Went to work. Semi-drunk driving, I guess. But not over-drunk driving. I don't know why I try to escape from my chills by going elsewhere... they still follow me. I don't even know why I get chills/shakes during my little depression fits. They just come and go every once and a while. I don't give them too much thought and they go away. I think its somewhat normal, and if its not somewhat normal at least its in somewhat control. I've been ultra-bored since being here though. At least tomorow will be better.. (Promise of a new day, thank you paula abduhl)...
And thats fucking it. Too many hours of bored. Too many hours of the chills. Blankets don't help on chills that come from the inside. Oh I live this life, you fucking turkeys.
Another interesting thought tonight. A lot of people I know.... they are a lot younger than me. They are... living towards some sort of goal. Like.. careers and all that shit. I guess I take it for granted. I was raised into computer by my peers... I liked computers, of course. But I don't think I would end up here if I didn't get jumped in the ninth grade for 'being a big nerd who fought back'.... and I don't think I would of ended up here if I didn't get pissed off and stop going to school... and I don't think I would of ended up here if my mom wasn't a dropout like me... and I don't think I would of ended up here without Dennis McNellis and Brian Larkins (AT&T;/Bell Labs geniusus) and their faith in me... or Janet Duff and Shane Chambers (IBM)... and I don't think I would of ended up here if I hadn't decided to get drunk and give myself a mohawk which finally got me outcast from any friends I had left at school.... and I don't think I would of ended up here without the inner me that makes me feel emo like a motherfucker sometimes no matter how much I understand it... and I don't think I would of ended up here without my individuality (which has not a fucking thing to do with being punkrock, like i thought when I was 18... I guess when you're the only punkrocker you know... being generic punkrock is the same as being yourself).
Anyways, all these people are working towards something. I've got my career. My resume speaks for itself... 'don't like my resume... fuck you I was good enough for IBM and Lucent technologies...' ... so now what... it was so fucking easy. so I guess the next is married, kids... at least find someone who's worth all that. But.... looking for something like that just fucking hurts like a motherfucker. am I suppoed to consider what i have my life forever and stop looking? (minus the drinking and fun that I have)... am I supposed to assume that the reacharounds will take off and then my life will be vaulted to a new level... or adam's band (which is more likey because he deserves it more)? or something?! what the fuck. I've told my roomates.... one day, one of us will end up being the crazy drunk at Bernie's or Larry's... (Don, Ted, that magician motherfucker... brian... one of them)... its funny cuz both of them think I'm talking about them. but really.... its just as likely that it could be me one day. drank or thought into a perpetual stupor because I've done everything else and don't really want to think about the rest of it. I don't want to live my life searching for love... and I don't want to live my life searching for more out of my dumb career... and I don't want to live my life waiting to be a rock star.... but apparently I do want to live my life for no fucking reason at all. A bit disturbing, I guess.
But maybe I reached 40 and didn't notice.
