We have this thing at work called “Summer Friday” where if you have your work for the week completed and are in a position by the middle of the day Friday, you could leave work early to enjoy a half day. As developers some of us never got to actually have one. But this past Friday, we were super slackers and left at 1:30. Fuck yeah.

I was really looking forward to this Summer Friday. Josh and I had been planning this Friday for a long time. We were going to see some of the Subnoize Recording Artists up in Baltimore. We missed some of the opening acts but were able to sneak through the admission line and catch the majority of Hed PE’s set. They fuckin’ rocked! Jahred blabs too much and they could have gotten 2 more songs in, but whatever. He always has funny shit to say. It was also nice to see him doing his civic duty by signing boobs after their set. Fun times!

Tech N9ne came out and rapped for a long ass time. He is pretty tight. The crowd was really into his performance and the place was packed so it was kewl to see everyone going nuts. This group of young idiots next to me were acting stupid so me and a couple of new friends that I made were making fun of them. One of the dudes threw his beer all over the place and Josh was about to grab my beer and dump it on the fucker. He is notorious for that. I will never forget the time he dumped a full beer on the chest of this dude we know cuz he was acting like a fuckhead. Needless to say, we had a fun time and made it home safely, memories intact!

Saturday I woke up with the worst allergies ever. I was supposed to get some tattoo work done but there was no way cuz of how I felt. Sneezing, sniffling, runny nose. BOO. Sudafed almost helped but not really. Damnit! I spent my day lounging and playing video games. It was great. Until the Redskins played and got absolutely obliterated. Fuck, it was horrible. They looked like mongoloids out there getting beat down. Sad. Thankfully its only preseason. If we lose like that in the regular season I would be super bitter!

Sunday was pretty fun. My good work pal Kristen was getting married. I have the privilege of being there when she met her hubby. It really makes me happy to see that love story from beginning to now. Definitely not the end of their story, but pretty kewl to be a part of it. Yay love at first sight, or whatever you wanna call it. The hopeless romantic in me gained confidence when I saw them say “I do” though, for sure. Their ceremony was beautiful! Lots of friends and family showed up to witness the event. She is happy. He is happy. Everyone had a great time. Fucking awesome. WOOOOO! We even got to blow bubbles as they walked out to get their pictures taken.

Oh shit. I got pretty saucy at the reception, as did a lot of others. Got home, crashed out pretty hard. I had been tired from being outside and drinking and shit, PLUS I was wearing pants for the first time all summer! That’s tough!! I slept in today and was a total lazy bum getting to work. But I can do that every once and a while. Not making a habit of it, but it sure is nice to sleep in on a Monday instead of going to an early ass meeting to talk about work. No work in dreamland! Well, ‘real’ work. Hehe.

Went to a new place for happy hour after work tonight and on my way, down a road I am familiar with some crazy shit happened. This car with a couple of punk-ass dudes did not obey the merge sign and ran this Lincoln Navigator off the road into the gravel. I was just tooling along and saw the dude in the SUV swerve back into the road behind me. Immediately I was like WTF. As we got to the stop sign a little bit up the road, the dude in the SUV straight got out and went to say some choice words with the dudes in the car. I just went through the stop sign and took off, but holy shit. That was crazy.

I was the first one to the venue and other than it being chilly inside, it was fun. It was good to get out with some work heads again since I missed them a lot during vacation. My burger was tasty, my black and tans were tasty, and I got 3 of them for free. Buy 3 get 3 free. Fuck yeah! I’ll take that deal any day. I really enjoy going out with the group because we always end up having the greatest conversations. Tonight’s highlight was no slouch… I never knew that there were such interesting things when it came to personal pleasure devices. But I draw the line at a blow-up sheep. That is just fucked up!

HAHAHAHAHAHA. Hooray beer.

Can’t sleep… AGAIN. UGH. So I am looking thru my flickr referrals and came across this site that has given me a whopping 8 hits. Seems to be some hip website that might be popular in Italy. Judging the pictures of the girly looking dude in the article I am not sure what the fucking thing is about or why its using the image of my Mom tattoo… Of course, I say this before I attempt to translate the page. Where you at Google?!

Haha! After translating the article it seems that some actor dude got a mom tattoo and his Mother got all bitter. Sucks for him. My mom might not like the fact that I have so many tattoos, but I’m pretty sure she likes the Mom tattoo. That’s beside the point though. GRR. This fucking site stole my shit. I am about to hit ‘em up and be like WTF?!?! Obviously the translation is not so great, but you get the point.

As he writes the “National Enquirer” Zac would have liked even the word “mother” on the body to show the mother Sterla all his love. Pity that she did not welcome the gesture, which would have ruined the beautiful skin clean your baby. Moreover we know: parents do not like piercings and tattoos!

As was proved to be a friend of the claimant, his mother had threatened to “split his head” to its Zac if he had truly implemented the project, adding “I do not care if anything now six large and big: I am still your mother. And hate tattoos”

And you what to do if your boy wanted the name of the mother, approaching the fashion, trash for decades appanno of truck drivers and prisoners? (It will be the life vagabonda that pushes these men to the person who represents their first home?)

Lame. This writer deserves a sideways stick up his ass. Trash… truck drivers and prisoners… Whaaat. You douchebag. I can’t wait to fuck you up in my dreams! I hate people.

I love fun weekends. For real. I needed a super fun weekend before going back to work. That’s exactly what I got. On Caturday, I got to see Jenni and have her work on me. I got a neat tattoo. Kinda secret right now but I’ll post more later. Hurts like a bitch. Now its time to heal. Ugh. I hate healing. Chilled with her and some other peeps after and had some dinner, played some Rock Band (I got a 565 note streak on one song playing lead guitar - OH SHIT) watched the Skins game (3-0 preseason FUCK YEAH) and read more of my book. Shit is awesome.

Sunday was the ROCKSTAR Mayhem Festival down the road a bit. It was pretty awesome. Lately, I have become more of a fan to see shows at bars and clubs. The big venues are cool, but I really don’t like people that much so it kinda sucks most of the time. We saw Mastodon, Disturbed and Slipknot, and I went over to the second stage to catch Machine Head. They destroyed - as usual - and it was really kewl to see the side-stage crowd getting hardcore into their performance. See my previous post but it sucked cuz Phil collapsed during their second to last song. Hope he’s okay!

Mastodon was tight. I had never seen them before. I really like their style. They were the first band on the main stage so the crowd was not all that large, but it was still sweet. After seeing Machine Head I came back to catch Disturbed. They put on a really good show. This is the second time I have seen them at Nissan Pavilion. The crowd was really into their set. The sun went down and it cooled off a bit. They sounded really good too. Rock!

Slipknot is just brutal. They had a really good set too. Covering all of their albums, including the one coming out next week. I was hoping they would play another new song other than Psychosocial but they didn’t. Ah well. The crowd was going wild. They were fucking loud! And the lighting that they had going on was really kewl. One of the better times I have seen them perform by far.

After all that fun stuff it was time to head back home and get some rest for my first day at work in over two weeks. It was weird, but I really was glad to be back. I really missed my friends there and was excited to get back into the groove all refreshed and ready to crush it. I had over 400 emails. SUCK. Still going thru them… weeee. Of course, no first Monday back from vacation would be complete without a production issue on your channels main page. I really wish our installs went better than they do. Sigh*

Time to float away to dreamland, where most of the time things go my way and I can be happy. I used to not remember my dreams, but I remember them a lot more lately. Not sure if that is a good or bad thing, but it sure does leave a lot to be desired…

Phil (guitarist) from Machine Head just passed out on stage. That was weird. He just fell to the ground. They think he is okay. We will know more soon.
