wow what a weekend

I have to say I had one hell of a weekend. It was both exciting and strange. Friday was just a long day. Didn’t think that the weekend was going to be all that exciting but I had one thing planed on Saturday and that would be mostly my highlight of the weekend. Friday I had to kind of deal with the ass bite I call a workmate. This numb-nuts was on his cell phone with his girl from 2:pm up too I left work at 5:30. I couldn’t keep the sound up on my headphones loud enough to drown out this idiot. But I wasn’t going to let him put a damper on my good mood. Oh I forgot I don’t have good moods, I guess you could call it my somewhat better mood. So I raced out of the office as fast as I could and went to my favorite bar. Nothing like washing the problems of the last week away with some nice cold beer. This was a good night, hung out with some friends had some laughs and all and all did something that I really don’t do that often Relax.
Now Saturday and my party. A friend of mine owes a bar and they were having a private Mardi gras party. Hot damn boobies and beer and all I have to do are offer up some beads? I am so there. I told a couple of friends that I would be their escort. One of them is someone that I have more of a brother sister relationship with. This would turn out to be a big mistake but that is another story. Before I was due to meet up my friends I got a call. This female that I had been talking to on the phone for a couple of weeks now called me up. We had been trying to meet up and get to know each other. She just got off work and had a couple of minutes to spare. So we meet up before I was to go out with my friends for a night of naughty fun. LOL Hell she looked even better in person then she did from her pics. Hot damn I am in a much much better mood now. We had a good time what little time we had and set up something for next sat. After I leave her I meet up with my friends and we head to the party. We get there and I start introducing them to my friends and start drinking. It’s going great there were a few hotties there and they wanted beads. Hot damn I am glad that went to the store and got all those extra beads. So after a few hours my friend that I think of closer as sis just keeps playing grab ass with me. She and I have talked about it and it wouldn’t work. Mostly because I don’t like her like that and plus I am so not attractive to her. Oh and she has a problem because the takes things personally, everything is because of her. So mix alcohol and someone that thinks this way and lets just say she started having a fit like no one likes me. And she is the most disgusting person in the room. Yea well let’s just say that cut our evening short. Oh well I head to my normal bar which was where we parked our cars. I went in and started talking with my friends and got to laughing and having a good time. Not as good as the party but oh well what are you going to do? Now Sunday I was going to go and hang out with my best friend that just had a little girl on Feb 14th. Wow she was just the cutest little thing. Kind of made me feel kind of upset that I didn’t have a little one of my own. Yea that lasted about twenty minutes until there was an odor in the air. Ok here you go you can have your little one back now. LOL Now I can only hope that I hear something back from the people that I have interviewed with last week. Also that I get some responses from the companies that I have sent out my résumé to. Here is to hoping for the best and letting the cards fall where they might.

When is this tunnel going to end?

Wow, I just came to the point in life where I am not sure I care anymore. For some reason I was looking at a calendar the other day and noticed that I have not had a permanent job for over a year now. The reason this has come to the point where I don’t care anymore is because it’s been a year of interviewing and some of the interviews I though when great. The next thing I know I don’t hear a damn thing from anyone. Up into this point only one place has said yes we would like you to come and work for us. Well that was just BS. They kept me waiting for an offer letter for 9 GOD DAMN WEEKS. Every week they would say we are getting it ready to send out to you thank you for being patient. Well it seems that was all bull. At the end of the 9 weeks and me calling and emailing every week, I get a call asking if I would mind coming in and meeting with someone else. What the hell? What do you mean meeting with someone else? I could have sworn that I was told I had a job and was waiting for an offer letter, not still interviewing for the position. In this interview I was told that some how the position that I was told I had was now back up in the air. They were trying to decide between me in a lower position or someone else in a higher position. Ok, now I am not even in the running with someone for the same position. I am competing with someone with more experience for a different position then they are going for? My god this makes no damn sense what so ever. So that brings me to the point where I am at right now. After 10 months of looking for a job. 9 weeks of waiting to start said job that I though I had. It’s time to start at the beginning all over again. At this point I have had 3 interviews and all of them seem to have gone really well. Yea but I so can’t get all that happy about getting the interviews. All I can do at this point is go through the motions. I had a friend get me an interview and it seemed like a good one and it was a good position for a good company. As a matter of fact I have two friends working for this company already. So I can only hope that I have a better than good chance at this position. Ok I need something to get me out of this funk and it has better be female, cute and very friendly. OH well I can only hope at this point.

Grey is a bad color

I noticed that I am going to have to change the name of my blog. I think the reason for that is I really don’t talk about dating that much. You see the problem is I don’t go out on dates that much. Hell I barely really go out on dates. I hang out at the bar or at my buddy’s place. I am thinking that I am really going to have to change this. I do have a date set up for March 9th but hell I am telling you there is no way that I am going to be able to last that long. I went out on Friday and hell if I didn’t get a nice little hottie to say yes. Hot damn it’s going to be one hell of a good time. But I do have one little problem I am getting old. My body is strong, I have a couple of brain cells left at least I think I have a couple left. But I have noticed what little hair I have changing colors. Now I shave my head so I don’t see the color change. But hell why is my chest hair turning grey? Damn it I guess I am to become one of those guys that shave everything? Oh hell we do what we have to do to keep up the vain image of ourselves. Oh hell who am I trying to fool I just don’t want to get anymore older then I already am. I will forever be a 10 year old trapped in an adult body. Hell maybe I should go out and see what happens when you mix gas gunpowder, fertilizer and fire together.

The 14th day of death

Wow, now that is over. Why as a single person do I hate Feb 14th with the passion of an anal probe from a crossed eyed doctor? As a matter of fact even when I did have a girlfriend I hated the 14th. There is so much pressure to get the right gift and to be the most romantic. Damn, flowers, candy and a card just to say either “I love you” or “I really like you”. Or in some cases how about dropping your pants and becoming a new friend? The reason I am bringing this up right now is because I was reading a story in the news about some high school kid that decided to buy a rose for every girl in his junior class. Now this kid spent 900 dollars on females that didn’t know him and might not even care who he is. Why did he do this? Well he said it was because he just though it was a sweet thing to do. Hell if he was smart he would use this to maybe laid some ground work to maybe get a girlfriend. Because I can tell you from having way too many girlfriends that if a female’s boyfriend spend 900 dollars to buy other women flowers and not on her she would flip. I don’t care how sweet it is. Most women I know wouldn’t want you to spend money on someone else. Now if this kid is a dork he did it so that the women might not ignore him anymore and won’t see a chance to take advantage of it.
Now the other thing that upsets me about the 14th of Feb. Why is everything from cartoons to sports had to be focused around it? I am going to go insane and I am going to take as many people as I can along with me. Ok I am done venting now. I am working on getting a date this weekend so my next post should be something about that instead of me just venting.

Someone get me a hammer

Man oh man I have to say I need to either invent something that will sell millions of units or win the lottery. Since I have kick way to many puppies to ever get lucky enough to win the lottery. And there really is no need for a new way to drink beer I am thinking that both those things might be a little out of range at this point. I am trying to figure out where are all these jobs that the news keep talking about that were created in this month or that month? Hell I wish I could go back to school and really owe more money while trying to find that perfect job. But damn this is one of those catch 22’s. Even with a degree there is no guarantee that I would be able to find a well paying job. One of my best friends brother went to Dartmouth got his degree and the next thing you know he is working at dominos. WHAT the hell you pay all that money do all that work and you can’t get a job other than pizza delivery? So how would I fair going to junior college no name? Oh hell that is my vent for the morning I am sure I will come up with more crap by this weekend to write about and then I will really be venting. But until then I am going to hook up my Coffee I.V. and try not to be bored with the job I hate while looking for something better. yeahhh

oh what a day.

Ok at what point on Thursday did I say I needed to have one of the worst days of this new year. OH and to top it all off I can’t even really complain about it. First I have to say that you know the day is going to be bad when the first thing you do after waking up is grab a beer from the kitchen. OH yea a beer before work just so you can get through the day. Yea this is what it has come to just so I can get to work. Not stay there at work just get there. And the really sad thing is I could walk into work with the beer bottle in my hand and they wouldn’t even give a flying crap about it. Well that is how the day started. But I knew the day was going to get better because I only had to do a half day. Why you might ask? Well my best friend had won some tickets to a taping of a tv show. Now I am sure that the people that may read my blog may have heard about how bad the traffic is in LA. I am here to tell you that for some reason it was the worst that it has been in months. For reasons that I have yet to find out or know why. But from this I was late getting to my buddy’s place and we were kind of late getting to the taping. Now after seeing this show I can tell you for sure that it wouldn’t have been that bad of thing if we had missed it. I had forgotten just how much I hated the whole Hollywood thing. My god these people couldn’t be more fake and I am so “don’t you know who I am type of people.” And this show was one of the worst that I have ever seen on TV so if it makes it to TV I will kick a cat. It was some kind of “roast” type of show. It was bad comedy on top of bad jokes. My friends and I were taking bets on just how long if this thing happened to get on the air it will last. The answer is not long at all.

Now after sitting through that amount of crap I was ready to go home and just try and get this day behind me but hell the day wasn’t done with me yet. On the way home I seem to have forgotten a very very important thing about driving a car. I am running out of Gas and what it’s the day before payday so what the hell am I going to do? I have a couple of coins in my pocket and some in a cup I keep in my car. But hell I don’t think I will be able to make it home on this. But hell at least I could try. Let’s just say I didn’t make it to where I wanted to. At 11pm I am stuck in a parking lot close to home but not close enough to walk. So hell I have an SUV I can sleep in my car until my paycheck clears the bank and I can get home. Now I wasn’t to upset at this point for a couple of reasons. One at a gas station down the road I ran into a guy that had lost everything in Katrina and for all the troubles I have been through I really don’t have it bad at all. And the other was even more depressing. Seems this guy I ran into on the street had just lost everything because of a car accident. Now I know my life has nothing on these two guys and I am in a rosy position compared to them. So I just lay my seat back and bundle up and wait for about 3Am so that I can get home get a couple of hours of sleep in a bed and wake up and take a shower.
I have to say it really only takes seeing someone in a worst position then you to put you in the right frame of mind. Your life seems much better when you run across someone that has it much much worst then you do. It’s sad but true you always feel better when it’s not you.
