so it's been a pretty packed few days. my friend john went into the hospital with a slight gastro-intestinal issue, we picked him up the next day. he had to spend his entire birthday in the hospital. to make it better, we spent friday drinking our asses off, starting at 4 in the afternoon. we were just wandering around with cups of bourbon, enjoying the day. this took it's toll on john, though…he passed out at 9 that night.

rewind to thursday: your black star played at the rud and we hatched an awesome halloween plan. let's just say that if you're from louisville or live close to louisville…you might want to make your travel plans now. more details to come…

fast forward to saturday: i spent the afternoon eating out with jess who is in town from dallas. we went to ramsi's and had a nice lunch. she invited me to a barbecue later in the evening, but i had already made plans to go to john's birthday dinner at his mom's house. and what a dinner it was…corn on the cob, cheesy potatoes, baked beans, buttered noodles, salad, baked ham…the works. top that all off with cake and ice cream and a few beers, and you have my saturday evening spent in heaven.

we all decided to meet up later at the kilowatthours show. it was my first show with them since we "parted ways," and only their second show with "the new guys." i think i got a little too drunk and told them they sounded like shit. i mean…they didn't sound nearly as bad as i remember telling them they did, if that makes sense.

and then to cahoots. and then to bed.

and now to work…
