keep it like a secret

Man, what a weekend. Halloween is so much fun. I was a lady at Joe's party Friday night: it was fun, chill. Nice to hang out and catch up w/ everyone. Nice to see what everyone wore. Last night I was a hoochie [thanks to Sam's excellent makeup work]: Very fun time at Pete's. Just a great college party. Got my butt kicked in beer pong, played some drinking games with the old crew, pretty much just had fun and acted stupid. My costume was pretty ridiculous and very funny. Everyone wore some great stuff. I love how on halloween, guys dress stupid and girls dress hot. That sounds about right. Today was a wasted day spent recovering from last night, I'm recouped and ready to go now...and it's pitch black at six o'clock. I can't stand this time change thing, it makes me just want to eat and snuggle. Alright, I've gotta run. I'll add more later, but right now we're trying to get a game of football together for tonight.

Good day. Amelia has tons of potential but it seems like we're still sort of spinning our wheels. David's really gotta make something happen w/n the next few weeks. It could still go either way: a total bust or a huge success. Saw the 'motor home massacre' premiere tonight. Just a cheesy b horror movie done by a bunch of locals. About what you'd expect: gratuitous breasts and teenagers making stupid decisions. It was fun. Should be a big weekend, I've got my whole costume and stuff together, just need to find some nipples...Joe's party tomorrow night and then probably going out, hopefully the tech game and dcfc concert Saturday w/ Pete and them's party that night. Oh, I called about the dog that I took to the vet and they said that he was doing well but that they had sent him to the pound where they were going to euthanize him. Luckily, they brought him back to the vet when they found that out. I told them to give me a call if it gets to that point again...

I'm listening to antony & the johnsons. They won the Mercury this year. Pretty good stuff, very heartfelt and emotional. Sounds like Billie Holiday or something. Jazzy/lounge kind of feel to it. Yeah...the go! team is cool too. Variety, baby. Alright, yesterday I saw a chow get hit [he got up and ran off thankfully] and today I found a dog that had gotten hit by a car outside of work and I picked it up and took it to the vet. So apparently being in my vicinity has a distinct effect on dogs health. Eh, but if you do get hit around me I'll help you out if you need it. This weather sucks, it was summer last week and it's winter this week. And don't even get me started on this early darkness stuff... Oh, I saw Andre 3000 at Eats last night. One of the coolest things ever. Now I have something to tell my grandkids. He is the man, he eats at Eats!

Good weekend. Bama got the win...the game absolutely wore me out, physically and mentally. Definitely the best finish I've seen in Tuscaloosa; or the best finish that we won I guess. It's nice that the weather's finally getting cooler. I need to go get some good cold weather food. Volunteered at the little five points halloween festival Friday night, it was really cool. I love the variety of people all getting along and having fun together. It's what living in the city is all about. From bums to punks to yuppies w/ kids to old people, everyone was having a great time. Entertainment variety as well. There are just so many cool things to experience in the city, I don't understand most of my friends, but we've been through that before. I'd like to go to Jacksonville this weekend to party and to see Brian and Katie. I'd just like to find someone to share the ride and crash for free at my brother's place. It really shouldn't be that hard to...

Good night, went to loca luna w/ joe, katy, and daya [and even beth and them] for wednesday night drinking club...I could get used to this whole 'yuppie' thing, as cliche' as it is. It'd be cool to live in midtown, go to work, come home, work out, eat, go to a bar...and still be in bed around midnight. Eh, that's probably just the long island's and red wine talking, but it was a good night and there are so many good times out there. You've just gotta get out there and get them. It's not even about being drunk, we should all have like: bingo night, poker night, bowling night, chill night, trivia night, etc. Anyway: good friends, good night

Man, I hate it when people aren't cool. 'Just doing your job' isn't a legit excuse is it? I've gotta make sure Mike gets me on the lists for +1 every time. Daya couldn't make it in w/ me and now I don't know if I want to drive back over there to catch the show...the new pornographers are such an awesome band, especially live. I should be working on the frames review or the feature on mc chris or something, but I just want to go back to the playhouse and catch the np' set. It's such a nice night, even just to wander little five or east atlanta w/ someone. I should just get some things done around here, chill, and get in bed, but the rock keeps pulling me back...there's no telling

Pretty cool weekend. Bowling at Sugar Daddies with Courtney and her friends Friday night. Man I sucked, I'm not very good w/o my ball. I think the absinthe had something to do w/ that as well. Bama pulled it out Saturday then The Red Door w/ Eric, Jennifer, and Yeager last night. Tatum and Marty weren't w/ us long enough to count. The Falcons got a cheap win today, Mary Mac's was awesome as usual, playing baseball with all the guys was fun. I've been getting a bunch of good free food lately since my roommate and his girl always cook. I'm just the little college freeloader, but I'm alright w/ that role for the time being. When I get a girl, I'll cook a lot more, but I don't see that happening anytime soon. I have a hard time pulling the trigger on relationships. I'm just tired of things being so complicated, I think I bring a lot of that into it though [in my head at least]. It seems like I'm just into such a wide variety of things that...

Just got back from the Frames show...wow. Everything that I knew to expect from them and more. Such passion and intensity. I'll get the rest out in the review. Wish you were here. great night

Weird day/night. I went to Courtney's birthday party last night and stayed up way too late, still a pretty good day at work though. It was cool to see so many friends hanging out and having fun, such a variety of people. It seems like my friends never really do that kind of thing. It's like no one really cares enough to make the effort. It's weird how relationships continually change and evolve, some become stronger while others get weaker. It's like you have to pick and choose which ones to maintain b/c no one really gives enough effort or has enough time to do it all. It's going to be weird getting married, just to see how many relationships sort of fall by the wayside. It's totally worth it, just weird to think about how much the people that you associate with change. That's something that's been bothering me lately. I feel like I'm not making any huge progress in any particular relationship in my life. I hate that. Relationships [wheth...

Alright, just finished the walkmen review...I always wait til the last minute [or in this case, about an hour after the last minute]. Mike wants me to review three cds [one double cd] by the end of next week and a feature on MC Chris by the end of the next week. I think I'm being taken advantage of, I'm down with live reviews b/c you get a free show out of it and I guess a feature would be cool b/c it's a big deal and you get to interview a musician, but these cd reviews pretty much suck. They take forever b/c you have to listen to each one like three or four times to get a feel for it and they're nothing spectacular after you do get to know them. They're always from local bands so obscure that even I have never heard of them, if that tells you anything. But anyway, tonight I'm headed home for some grandma/family time, hopefully the fair if the rain doesn't kill it, and partying with what should be a pretty decent little crew for James' birthday. It...

Went to give blood tonight w/ Daya. It was pretty cool, about what I expected. She's one cool girl, even though she couldn't give blood b/c she had a phantom temperature from chewing gum [suuuurrre]. I am extremely friendly and inquisitive when I'm in that hospital kind of environment, not sure why that is, I hope I don't annoy them. I'm very polite though, so it should be cool. A lot of tech folks were giving platelets, that'd be something good to try next time. My blood sister and I will try it again in December. I'm going to be writing a feature on MC Chris for SEP...pretty cool and intimidating but I'm up for it b/c it's a good challenge and something new. I've been doing 350 word reviews, now I'm doing a 1500 word feature. I'm not too sure what I think of his music yet, but maybe that will make for a good angle or something. He's from adult swim, which all the kids seem to enjoy. Maybe I can get some free stuff or some cartoo...

Alright, I'm going to see how this goes. I'm going to do this to get some thoughts out and see what it looks like outside of my head. Life is going really well right now: cool job, cool things to do, cool house, cool friends...I guess everything's cool. It's just weird to be at the point in your life where things naturally start slowing down and falling into place. I feel like I'm forcing fun and enjoying being young as compared to most of my friends...maybe that's just the kind of person I am. It just seems like I'm catching slack for continuing to push forward w/ this great life that we've all been given instead of graduating college, getting a job, and beginning to die. I just don't see where it says that once you're out of school that you have to begin settling for less than you feel you deserve. Maybe it's just me. Anyway, I've gotta get a shower. I've got a 'date' with Courtney tonight, another girl that is cool as hell ...
