Hey blogfans,


I have decided to come out of semi-retirement to review Adams birthday evening at the bar last night. As usual I will start this entry in timeline format and then quit when I get bored.

Saturday February 14: Happy Valentines Day!!! of course our (erica/luke super-valentines day) valentines day was being pushed till monday so we could go out with Randy Martin who was in visiting from NYC. Randy is disappointingly only moderately chubby which is too say the massive weight gain I was hoping randy would realize working 14 hour days and eating exclusively take-out and firm dinners has gone as of so far unrealized. I think I failed to factor in that Randy has maintained a terrible lifestyle for as long as I have known him and is unlikely to push his unquadrathalonable body beyond where it is right now. What I could really use right now is some heavy Ben weight gain but Ill leave that for now. This relates to Adam's birthday how? oh yeah our superior quality blogging friend Miranda (link through adams blog I think mine is screwed up) presented Adam with a birthday pornomag and I had a second pause where I was like "oh shit is it adam's birthday today" and then miranda said something about the present coming early and I was like "whew" because as a 28 year old it is probably time for me to get one of those calender things that you write everybody's birthday in.
We had a good night Saturday at the Left Bank which by the way we arrived at a full hour before any hint of a line-up which always sucks esp when beers are like $9 (and you are somehow compelled to drink 1 beer every 14 min.)
Miranda and Erica were both wearing trendy boots and for a second I thought that thier boots might start fighting for boot dominance on their own volition. For some reason ben was wearing a huge sweater and predictably did not score. Sandon was wearing his collar turned up a la paris style and I dont think he scored either. nobody else scored actually but they probably had trouble getting girl attention because I was wearing a sharp black button down shirt and not running shoes.

Sunday Febuary 15th: I was late getting up at Ericas and had to go straight to work in my bar clothes which while functional at the bar are not great to work in. At some point of intensity reeking like fabreeze has to be as bad or worse than reeking like beer and cigarettes.

Monday Febuary 16th: Happy Valentines Day!!!! I had the day off and believe me it took all day to secure the ingredients for the romantic belated valentines dinner I would later screw-up and also I made a romantic cupid themed belated valentines card which I didnt actually finish and none of my friends will ever see. Our valentines day not only a valentines dinner but also we watched average Joe 2: Average Joe Hawaii which was the long awaited fat-suit episode. Finally we watched two episodes of Sex and the City which Erica surprised me by renting instead of a movie!!!

Tuesday Febuary 17th: I will now honor Carrie from sex and the city by writing my review of Tuesday in the style of her improbable New York sex column...

"In one way or another I think we are all looking for our perfect lunchbreak. Like most retail employees I thought I had my 30 min lunch break down to a science: cigarette on the way to delicious amatos-delicious amatos while reading now or eye weekly-kitkat chunky after lunch-cigarette on the way back to work. If this was working so well then why did I feel in the back of my mind like maybe there was a way I should be refining my amato-centric lunch or even abandoning amatos altogether.
It was with this in mind that I walk deliberately past amatos on tuesday and into the subway next door. Sure I didnt know right away what I wanted like with amatos but wasn't that the point? 15min and one 6" assorted combo later and I knew in my heart that subway was going to replace amatos whether I wanted it too or not... but was it right of me to just leave amatos after everything it had done for me?
Was I being callous in this lunch break-up?
Meanwhile in an accross town fast-food place Mark was having lunch break-up issues of his own... could he abandon the extra burger he secretly ordered everytime he purchase a wendy's combo?"

for those of you who havent seen the show.....


it goes on like this


Wednesday Febuary 18th: What do you know I am bored already and plus I have to go and play basketball. Quick Review: We all got inappropriately drunk including luke who I think at one point was lecturing Will and Ross on the evolution of hip hop (a subject I was previously unaware I was an expert on) remembering this kind of shit hurts as much or more than my actual hangover (which I was able to keep somwhat in control with a steady flow of apple juice drink boxes)
Happy birthday Adam and big shouts out to Ross and Brendan for making the trek up to T. and to Will for buying me a Stella.
