Today at work sucked ass as usual, so Phil and I went out to Bailey’s and made a valiant (and mostly successful) attempt at having fun. It was more or less dead, so we got great service and got a pool table immediately. As usual, he kicked my ass for the most part with me winning a few games here and there, mostly on luck. I’m not that great at pool but by god I enjoy it. Anyway, we start off with some random older waitress that we’ve never had before. I don’t even remember her name and it really wasn’t important because she was nothing special. Ok looking, but that’s not the point. She really didn’t seem too horribly concerned with us. She ended up leaving and we ended up with Natalie again. She’s cool as fuck, but I find out at some point during the night that she’s, of course, ENGAGED. ugh.. wtf… Then I find out that one of the other cute waitresses there, who happens to be her roommate has a live-in boyfriend. And yeah, these are the same two from Friday night that I annoyed the piss out of when I was drunk. I already knew that my favorite waitress there, Danielle, was taken. The amusing thing is that none of these girls is terribly hot… All 3 of them are reasonably cute and all three have what I’ve determined to be quite a bit more than just tolerable personalities. A rare find in my book, lately. Of course they all WOULD be taken. Only the waitress at Chop House, Celia, hasn’t thrown the boyfriend comment at me at any point so far. That’s not to say she’s single or would even so much as consider giving me a chance in hell. She’s just not tossed the boyfriend remarks at me as of yet. Again, she’s one of those that’s not wicked hot, but there’s just something about her that kills me. Perhaps I’m too picky, to be perfectly honest. Seems that if I find a girl who’s wicked hot and happens to be single, I find some way to determine that her personality sucks ass. Of course, if I find a girl who’s ok looking and has a great personality, it always turns out that she’s taken. I don’t think I expect too much from a girl… just that her personality kicks ass and that she doesn’t bore the fuck out of me. I don’t care if she’s drop-dead gorgeous or anything like that. Admittedly, I’d never date a girl I found to be physically repulsive, but I don’t expect her to be in the same class as a Victoria’s Secret model. I can’t say I’ve ever actively pursued a relationship on any level. I guess in a nutshell, I really don’t give a shit one way or the other if I find a girlfriend anytime soon. I’m pretty much content being single. It’s actually really nice not having anything or anyone else to worry about. At any rate, this has turned into a rambling, pointless, stupid post… so I’m done for now… I’m going to bed.

This video is terribly amusing. Unfortunately, we don’t have such cool (albeit horribly pointless) videos here in the US. Leave it to the UK to have such wonderful music videos.
Benny Benassi - Satisfaction It’s even one of those strangely cool/catchy songs. If you’re on dialup, that particular one won’t work worth shit, so when the page loads, click one of the lower bandwith versions on the right. Needless to say, another interesting video to check out would be “Ferry Corsten - Punk”, which can be found here.
Oh, well.. nothing else interesting worth mentioning today… well, other than that Red Baron french bread pizza is really fucking good. 
I’m on my way to bed, but thought I’d drop an update… Nothing major happened, outside of going out last night and getting completely fucking shitfaced out of my mind. In doing so, I found that the waitress we had last night (Natalie) was roommates with one of our other favorite waitresses there (Nikki). They look enough alike to pass as sisters, and they’re both cute as FUCK. Natalie has the nicer ass and Nikki has the nicer face. Nikki’s like 22 and Natalie’s 25, I think. I ended up tipping her like $11, which is an absurd amount on a $27 tab, but she was worth it. She’s the only waitress we’ve had that got us drinks wicked quick. Quick as in less than 5 minute wait for a drink, which is really good on a busy Friday night. I’m so much more brave and social when I’m drunk. I talked to both of them quite a bit and didn’t even really think twice about it. I never stopped to think “hey, these girls probably think I’m a fucking dork and don’t care to talk to me”. I remember telling them both that Nikki had prettier eyes and Natalie had the bigger butt. It was rather interesting to say the least. I had quite a bit of fun… up until I woke up this morning and puked (more like dry heaved) my guts out. There was nothing in my stomach to really puke up, so outside of some undigested cranberry juice, it was dry… and goddamn those are painful. 
I know better than to drink on an empty stomach, but for some reason I did it anyway. Guess I got what I deserved. Puking is not fun. You’ll never see it listed under my hobbies… nor will you see it an an olympic sport anytime soon. Though, admittedly, that might be interesting. Pairs artistic vomiting anyone? Um, yeah… anyway, that’s pretty disgusting. I’m going to bed.
Well, nothing important to speak of today… Just another boring day.. I worked, came home, did nothing. No big deal. One thing I did discover is just how cool Launchcast is. Basically, it’s streaming radio that you control. If you don’t like an artist or song, just give it a low rating and you won’t hear it again, provided you’re not listening to one of the pre-made stations they give you. Basically, you sign in with your Yahoo username, edit your station, pick the genres you like most, and it plays songs from those genres. Then as you start rating stuff, it learns what you like and don’t like. It plays the stuff you rate highly and ignores the stuff you don’t rate so highly. It’s basically radio YOUR way. For $4 a month, you get a shitload of extra features and access to a LOT more music in much better quality. I’m paying the $4 a month because it’s worth it, hands down. I’m diggin it. Check out my station here. Obviously it works best if you have a high speed connection, but it DOES work on dialup (lower quality, though). I’ve been fucking with it all night… They even have videos too. How fucking cool is that?
Tonight was so fucking weird… Aside from getting stupid drunk, tonight was odd, though nothing seemed to have much of a bearing on anything at all. Well, one exception. This girl that I always considered attractive and who had randomly just started being nice to me and talking to me again,… she barely acknowledged my existence tonight. She was with one of her 395073295873498573 guys she’s talking to or whatever. I saw her once at her friend’s house a week or so ago and she hasn’t talked to me since. I think the reaction afterwards would have been the same whether I was a good boy (I was) or whether I tried to get down her pants (even her “best friends” have told me she’s easy so yeah, probably woulda worked out). Honestly, I think I shoulda just fucked the shit out of her and forgotten she existed, but I figured I’d be nice and not try to get down her pants the first time I see her. Perhaps she expected it.. perhaps she’s a slut and her entire purpose was to invite me over so I’d go down on her. Who knows, and at this point I don’t really care. I ended up hanging out with one of my best female friends, and I actually enjoyed myself overall. Some other random weird stuff happened, but I don’t feel like posting it… Basically, another girl just proved how fucking shady she is…. and my female friend again proved that, well, she’s a great friend no matter what. So yeah… I’m going to bed. Thanks, Ariel… I always enjoy hanging out with you. (even though you won’t read this)
Work has been ridiculously slow today.. However, it’s Sunday, so that’s pretty much a normal thing. I’m quite certain we’re going out tonight because, well, we haven’t been out in about a week and I’m starting to get tired of beeing cooped up in the house doing nothing. I have some money to blow, so might as well go out and shoot some pool and have fun with it. Plus there’s the beautiful women I’ll be guaranteed to see (and not talk to). We generally go to Bailey’s most of the time because it’s a bit more laid back and not so much of the club atmosphere… the people there are generally really cool, the drinks are good, and the pool tables are in good shape, and surprisingly the food is excellent. I just don’t feel like going home and sitting on the computer when that’s all I’ve done here all day… I didn’t go out all weekend and it’s kinda sucked, actually. I like to get out of the house and do stuff instead of staying inside all the time. Granted, sometimes I do like to take a day and just do absolutely nothing. But I’ve not had many of those days lately. Needless to say, I don’t have much to say here at the moment.. I’m just bored and figured I’d hack something out to pass the time… I’ll blog later when I’m drunk… I’ll have plenty of interesting things to rant and rave about.
I swear to god… women are fucking cunts… This one in particular might just be able to win “cunt of the year” if there were such an award. She’s about the only person that’s managed to piss me off twice in one day…. and frankly, it takes a lot to piss me off, so that’s an achievement. Needless to say, she was supposed to come over this morning… She goes through the trouble of calling me @ 10:35 to tell me she’ll call me back when she gets out of the shower. I figure… great, 30 minutes or so. Well, I gave her about 45 mins to an hour and gave up… went back to sleep. She never shows, nor does she ever call to say “hey, I can’t make it”. I would have thought that MAYBE she had the fucking common courtesy to call me and say she couldn’t come over, which I would have been perfectly fine with. But no, she just blows me off and doesn’t even bother to apologize. She calls me @ like 5:30 and left a msg… Here comes mistake #2. First word out of her mouth is “Steven….” then she’s like “uh, I mean, Kevin”. Steven is the “other guy” that she supposedly liked, but turned down in favor of me. So yeah, not only does she blow me off, she leaves a voicemail calling me the wrong name 7 hrs later. So anyway, I call her back and she’s like “I got called into a meeting at work… I’m sorry… I’ll come see you on your lunch”. I’m obviously skeptical, but I’m a nice person and I give her a chance to redeem herself. I give her explicit directions here. So of course she doesn’t show up. Big fucking surprise there. Even more amusing, at about 7:40, she finally calls and says she got lost… I gave directions that ANYONE could have followed and she somehow manages to fuck up. So today, she managed to piss me off twice, prove that not only is she completely unreliable, but she’s not exactly bright as well. It’s because of girls like her that I absolutely refuse to trust females anyway. At this point, I see absolutely no reason to even bother to continue to pursue anything with her. There are tons of girls out there that are surely more reliable, more intelligent, and certainly more worth my time. I should have just stuck with my decision to give up on her completely when she just didn’t call for over a week. Gotta love the feeling of having wasted your time for nothing. At this point, until a girl just completely blows me the fuck away, I’m not even gonna bother with it.
one last revelation before I go to bed… the lead singer of Kosheen, Sian, has an awesome voice. I totally dig their music, too. Very good stuff… check them out if you haven’t had a chance yet. Unofficial Kosheen Site. A great place to go for tons of info about them. They even have a few bootleg mp3 downloads. Also, unlike many good techno artists, their music can actually be readily purchased at your local music store. I actually own their first CD, which was excellent… I don’t own the new one yet, but it’s VERY good. I’d buy it if I actually had a car to listen to it in. 
Anyway… check ‘em out. NOW!
Today has been ok to say the least. Too bad I have to work tomorrow. 5 straight days, joy joy. Anyway, I went out with Sam to the Chop House and ate, as usual on my off-days (well, one of them per week, we do this) and we actually got our favorite waitress. She’s so incredibly cool. Hell, we walk in and she already knows what we want to eat and what we drink, and even what kind of dressing I want on my salad. Not to mention our drinks never go empty and she’s always checking on us to make sure we’re doing ok. That’s what I call service. She even has a cool name. Her name’s Celia… kinda like Cecilia, but shorter and more interesting. I wonder if she can cook, because that’d be kinda cool to have a really cute girl with a great smile bringing me food all the time.. lol. Oh, wait.. that’s what you’d call a girlfriend… Maybe I’ll have one of those soon, who knows. Anyway, so around midnight or so, this girl that I’ve been talking to signs on and we talk for a bit, and I mention her possibly coming to visit tomorrow and she’s like “there’s a very good chance I will” or something like that. She runs off and does some stuff and then finally calls me and we talk some more… She informs me that she’s definitely coming to see me tomorrow and that I should set my alarm… So yeah, she’s coming to see me tomorrow as long as she wakes up early enough, which kicks ass. Now, let’s just hope she actually DOES wake up, because that would suck if she didn’t. She seems like she really wants to see me, so we’ll see how that works out. It’s kinda hard for me not to get my hopes up, I suppose, but I’ll hope for the best and that’s all I can do. Needless to say, tomorrow might actually kick ass. I don’t really have much else to say here… I’m just going to end it on that good note and go to bed so I can get some sleep.
Wow… I had a boring day… did a bunch of nothing… and I don’t know why I’m still up, to be honest. The girl that I said I was going to call, I called and she didn’t call back (no surprise there). Oddly enough, the other girl I had been talking to but who dropped off the face of the earth finally decided to IM me today. She’s apparently been working and busy with stuff like that. I want to see her again, but we never have the same days off, so it’s impossible for us to make definite plans to get together. We’ll figure something out, but I’m not gonna go getting all fucked up over it. She claims she’ll call me tomorrow… we’ll see how that goes. At any rate, hopefully I’ll find something worthwhile to do today besides sit around the house like an idiot. As for right now, I’m going to bed.
