My Space
12.28.05 (2:56 pm) [edit]well...I had to do it. I am switching to MySpace.com
Not that I don't like a regular blog, my entire family and most of my network of friends have switched.
Anywho, go check it out:
Internet usage...
12.14.05 (5:20 pm) [edit]I left myself logged into my blog and Marla decided to redo my colors...
Lesson: log your ass out when you are work!
Work Christmas Party
12.11.05 (11:05 am) [edit]I went to Tabitha's work party last night. She is a hair stylist at a pretty upscale salon, so you can imagine the people showing up had to make a production of it. I complied and went out to get a new dress shirt and a power tie. It really reminded me of high school how all the preppy popular girls wouldn't dance unless they ALL danced together. This one girl's boyfriend was so plowed he definately proved why white guys can NOT dance.
I think the only thing that saved the night was knowing Tabitha's store won a contest that got us each a hotel room at the Mont Vale and an open bar. You can better believe I drank my fair share of alcohol.
The room was the shizzle. Down feather top mattress with terry cloth bath robes. I found an unlocked closet in the hallway that had a shit load of them. I'm kicking myself for not taking a couple.
At a Medium Pace
12.05.05 (6:33 pm) [edit]If you can download music, down load an Adam Sandler song called "At a Medium Pace." Sit back, crack up the volume, and listen to the lyrics.
Then download "Fuck Her (Gently)" by Tenacious D.
If you can't find them, email me.
Yup, he did say that :)
I'll go into a random bar that has a jukebox that can download music and play those songs back to back just to see people's reactions. Its great!

New Years Eve
12.04.05 (2:04 pm) [edit]Here's everybody's invitation to my house for the annual New Year's Eve party. Last year it was the sexually themed object for the gift exchange. This year, this is how it's done:
- Each person is required to bring 1 fifth of a hard alcohol
- The fifth must be atleast $11 in value
- White Elephant style gift exchange
- No price limit. So either be a dick and get some crappy alcohol or be gracious and give some Crown
We'll have snacks and such available but if you are willing to bring something, reply here or call/text me. Party starts at 7:30 ish. RSVP with me or Tabitha.
We'd prefer if you all just passed out at the house or have a D.D. Just keep in mind that there is a certain "friend" who likes to draw on people when they pass out.
Freakin full moons
11.20.05 (1:48 pm) [edit]Something must have been going on Friday night because I had the craziest night working at the bar.
First, Todd, one of my bartenders, got busted by the Washington State Liquor Board for serving a minor. In fact, it was a sting and he got set up hard core. They gave a minor a fake ID and had him come in and buy a beer. I think that's F-up'd. The kid and the picture were really damn close. I would have served him. It just happen to be Todd.
Next, a guy and a girl starting hitting each other and take it outside. The next think you know, I got cops in the parking lot. Not good.
Then I hear the next day Todd is getting fired. I talked to the owner and come to find out, she never said to fire Todd. The manager took it upon herself to fire him. So needless to say, Todd is still working there.
270
11.15.05 (8:12 am) [edit]270...
That's the number of tiles Tabi and I put down last week...All in one day.
It was a pain in my ass but we got it done. I was hurtin pretty bad for a few days but it is such and awesome feeling to look at it and realize you did it yourself. Stop by and take a look!
I'm old
11.13.05 (8:45 am) [edit]Yeah, I'm old. I turned 25 a week ago. My girlfriend definately went all out for me. She set me up into thinking nobody was going to show up after dinner for my birthday and it turns out everybody at dinner plus some more people were waiting for me to yell surprise.
I've come to a few realizations though:
- I can't keep up with them young bucks when it comes to drinking. I think I killed my liver at a young age
- I eat slower. Yup, instead of forking down a meal, I take the time to enjoy the taste
- I drive like my dad. After 3 tickets in 18 months, I started driving the speed limit, dead on. It drives Tabitha nuts
- I'm more inclined to just stay at home and watch a movie then go out and get drunk. (This is actually a good one)
Dumb movies
10.30.05 (12:55 pm) [edit]Since the wifey is sick today, I decided to watch some movies that she would never want to watch. However, I usually end up watching the dumbest movies possible. But its like a train wreck...no matter how shitty it is, you just cant look away.
"D.E.B.S." - Movie I just watched. Looked promising...four hot girls running around in school uniforms. Unfourtunately I feel dumber after watching this one.
"Powder" - Watched it once. I should have stopped halfway through but I wanted to know how it ended.
"Stuck on you" - Tabi and I actually returned the movie before we finished it.
And mind you, I am not a movie snob. So when I say a movie sucks, it really bites.
The Aftermath
10.30.05 (8:51 am) [edit]Wow, Brent and Mara sure know how to throw a party....That's not necessary a good thing!
Between Mara's blended concotions to Brent's Glenlivet and water, I think ALL of us got a little drunk. Ok so I lied, we all got ALOT drunk. Somewhere in the night, I had the idea to take some Chaser pills. Thank goodness for modern day medicine. Check Mara's blog later for pics :)
Halloween
10.25.05 (8:15 am) [edit]I still don't have a costume for this weekend. I have to bartend at Litz on Friday and they are expecting a costume so I'm not sure. Plus I feel obligated to beat last year's Smurf idea.
We also don't have a party house any more. Any body with a good idea, let me know.
Does anybody still read this?
10.16.05 (7:23 am) [edit]Aw, I've lost all credibility with my readers. I stopped blogging and they stopped coming. Well...here's an invite to come back!
Finally got internet/broadband again. Shit, finally got CABLE TV again. Only because my neighbor decided to not let me use their wireless internet. It probably would have helped matters had I asked them if I could use it in the first place.
YOU HEARD IT HERE FIRST!!!
The internet's first and only roster listings of our friend's relationship status!
- Brent/Mara - Engaged...finally! And you should see this rock...
- TJ/Reanna - Engaged...at last. Good to see TJ nut up
- Bailey/Heather - Splitsville. Sorry bud
- Greg/Misty - We all knew that wasn't going to last
Where are my manners?
07.11.05 (9:16 am) [edit]Sheesh, I don't mean to be like Imus and only update my blog once a month.
Things have been going ok I guess. Working like 60+ hours between two jobs.
Imus is getting married. Yup. Scary, huh? I got the honors of the bachelor party. Yup, even more scary, huh? I'd reveal some details but I have a little "Days of Thunder" suprise for him.
Oh, my pool team won City Cup. If you have no clue what that means, we're going to the International Tournament in Vegas Aug. 22-29. You should come down. No really, come down.
Golf Tournament
06.10.05 (1:36 pm) [edit]Litz's is having it's 1st Annual Golf Tournament on July 9th. YOU WILL BE THERE AND YOU WILL BE PLAYING.
$50 a person. Includes green fees, golf cart, and grub. 4 person team and best ball format.
You want some stinkin updates?
06.10.05 (10:41 am) [edit]Yeah yeah, I'm lame. No updates for awhile. What an I say? I've been busy.
We all had a blast at the memorial day BBQ. Probably a little too much fun. The beer bong got fixed and made a surprise appearance. Yeah...never let someone else pour your beer bong unless you are watching. Some one who will remain nameless decided to put shots of whatever was available in mine.
Work has been going somewhat ok. Still on that job hunt. Damn people and their pesky requirements that you actually know how to do the job. Keep your fingers crossed.
Interesting Scenario
05.12.05 (8:48 am) [edit]If a woman/girl/lady...whatever, carries a condom in her purse, is she being careful just in case? Or does she convey the message that "I'm a slut and might have sex with someone so I'll need the condom?" or "I'm going to have random sex so...."
A guy that carries a condom in his wallet is just different because, well, most guys still have the same one from junior high.
And we are talking about a single woman here.
How time flies!
05.02.05 (9:16 am) [edit]Yup, I kind of spaced out my blog. It's been a hectic week for me and now I'm starting to wind down.
I am suppose to hear back about a job I interviewed for today. I met with two VP's for the company. Pretty nerve racking considering it was just my first interview. Keep your fingers crossed or say a prayer or something.
My pop's birthday is today. WooHoo! I have no clue on what to get him. He pretty much buys what he needs. I might get him a bottle of Henessy :)
And one of the best parts:
Dodgeball tournament in about 10 days!!!
Two things about jobs and work
04.21.05 (10:00 am) [edit]Here are two seperate points to consider
- I have a job interview coming up. I am talking with my friend on the right color dress shirt to wear with my black suit. Red shows power and control while green shows intelligence. Blue shows responsibility. I am picking a color to wear and am leaning towards blue. It is subtle yet conveys a strong message that I can be trusted. It's times like these that I wish I remembered more from my non-verbal comm class.
- I recently found out my old manager was talking some mad trash about me during a manager meeting. I was pretty furious when I heard. I am glad that I have quite a few friends that are managers that stood up for me. The question is what should I do about it? Confront her? Leave it be? Destroy her reputation?
Vacation!
04.19.05 (8:59 am) [edit]I'm taking off for Portland this weekend. You better believe I'm excited. I need a vacation. I only have two goals for this weekend:
- Steal that damn goat (some of you guys will know what I mean)
- Get Tabitha to take a shot of Everclear.
I was going to try to find some Absinth while I was down. Who knows?
Stupid alcohol
04.18.05 (10:17 am) [edit]Saturday night was some what of a blur. Here is what I do recall:
- Went to a play by aRT at SFCC called "Blythe Spirit." I wasn't too bad but we left right before the 3rd act since we were late
- Drank a few vodka redbulls at the Big Easy.
- Bailey bought me an Incredible Hulk. Hypnotic and Hennesy. Yeah...Rocked my world with one shot
- Mysterious girl buys me a shot
- Find out that mysterious girl is Tabitha (haha, I'm a dumbass)
- T.J. being the brave soul takes shot after shot even though he said no more.
- Not too much details after the second double bull blaster
Everyone pretty much died after that. Either they were severly intoxicated or dead sober being the d.d. Fun night...More details are starting to make it's way back to my brain so I'm enjoying the night more and more.
Insensitive Prick
04.16.05 (4:23 pm) [edit]Last night at the bar, a guy made this stupid joke:
Q: What don't they sell at the Vatican gift shop?
I actually had stopped him at this point and warned him to not go any further. Well he didn't listen and finished:
A: Pope-On-A-Rope
Being the Catholic I am, my brain said "ATTACK!" But I relaxed for a second. He was trying to figure out why I tried to stop him and why I wasn't laughing. Instead of blowing up at him and telling him that he's a jackass, I told him to leave the bar. He refused to saying he paid for his drinks and he had the right to freedom of speech.
Smart ass...I told him he doesn't have that right if his words start a riot. He looked around and asked "what riot?" And right on cue, one of the regulars who is 6'2" and pushing 300 lbs comes over and lifts him out of the chair. He replies "you don't want to see me start a riot."
How you like them apples?
Bike shorts, anyone?
04.16.05 (4:16 pm) [edit]Being the naive and good friend that I am, my good friend Mara roped me into playing on her dodgeball team. I guess I shouldn't say roped. I really do want to play. I'm just afraid seeing all the big kids standing around in a circle throwing balls at me is going to bring back some old memories.
MOMMY! MAKE THEM STOP!!!
