11/5/08 - Hope over Fear

I discussed this, I heard this, I knew this.
The wrong campaign was all about what we should fear.
Uncertainty, Unknown, Untested.
The correct race was all about what we needed to hope for.
Believed, Embraced, Accepted.
He wrote a book and He believed it.
He asked the country to believe it and they have.
I am finally happy with the election results after eight years.
I will go to sleep happy.
I will wake up happy.
And I will definitely look forward to my weekend,
Very happy.
Believe It.

10/31 - Ready to Go. - Check


I have been living it up lately. All of the crew has been in attendance. I have been doing my part to keep the party moving and I think I have found all of the new bartender's I need to go to since some of my old bartenders have retired (sad face). The fall has rolled in like gang busters and I really needed to pull out the winter wear to walk the streets this past week.
I need cover as a run from club to club you know.
Anyway, I have been free with the advice, talking to some very smart people from DJs to friends I have just met and have been growing as a person in getting advice, giving advice and following my own advice (for once).

Preparation is the mother of invention. If I just put myself in the right place with the right preparation then good things will happen and I will go on like Celine Dion.

I have been doing the usual circuit of Gymbar, G Lounge and Splash, with side trips to Rebel and Mr Black thrown in. I feel bad that I can't visit Rebel more because I did have a good time with the music there, (better than I thought I would) and I have a bartender I know in the space. The bad news is they search you down like you are a criminal. I would have to leave my wallet chain and my Visine elsewhere to get inside. The full body pat down gets tired when you know you are innocent.

I have recently started going out on multiple nights over the weekend. As long as my wallet can handle it and I have friends to join me I will try my best. Has been a good time had by all so far.

No checks have bounced and all credit lines are open. The next party will be arriving in... 11 hours. Countdown begins...

10/17 - 10/19/08 - Quick Weekend -

Friday and Saturday I hung out.

Friends were there. I was totally gypped on Friday paying to get into Splash and no one was there (it was busy downstairs but it was not worth 15 dollars. Especially when 45 min later Russ and the Jimmy got in for free. Anyway I will not be going to Splash after midnite on a Friday anytime for the foreseeable future (and pay full price)

I shoulda stayed at G Lounge or went to Mr Black.

Anyway Saturday was much better
Hung out with friends at Mike's place. Chatted, laughed and watched baseball game. Went to Gym, said hello to Ty. Met up with Durrell and headed over to Splash. Said Hello to Derek, gave him All Falling Up CD and partied with DJ David Knapp and DJ Danny Echi. Stayed dancing until 5am and got b'fast at Mickey D's before heading home.

Sunday was nice and restful. Looking forward to another slow week.

Until next time..

9/7 - Stormy Weekend - Still Fun


I started early on Thursday.
Hanging at gym bar and then splashbar.

I was miffed that I had to pay and that the price of drinks went up
but I will live.

I have to conserve myself and not do an more Thursdays anytime soon.

Friday was fun, with Russ, Durrell, and Russ as we hit up Gymbar, then G Lounge then Splash, then Mr Black (4 bars - clubs) I was even able to maintain a good party atmosphere about myself having great fun on Friday night despite the rain. Thank goodness friends are there to see you to the end of the night when you get distracted and start to drift.

Saturday despite the impending storm I headed out for a ride in the Murano, bought some juice, soda and eggs and chilled out waiting for night to fall. I rested and then prepared myself to jump out into the main event for a Saturday night. Haircut, cleaned and outfitted I was ready to claim the night. All my friends were texted and in transit. I rolled into the city with the Jimmy and Russ and started the night at G Lounge and waited for Durrell to arrive before He and I headed over to Splash.

Once inside said hi to the peeps in attendance and danced to the beats of DJ Alexander on the main floor after meeting up with Dwayne. We saw Dougie entertaining a few castmates from the Real World with their lighting tech and sound technicians in tow. Said hello to DJ Echi downstairs and danced to the pop party and R&B beats before heading back upstairs and seeing Garrett for more drinks and further dancing. We ended up staying till the very end unintentionally since I was planning to leave before 4:50am closing but DJ Alexander kept the party hopping with the beats to the very end.

Walked over to Mickey D's for a big breakfast and had some drama as they mixed up my order with some other customers and I had to wait for them to make me a new breakfast. They also ran out of Orange Juice but I made do with sprite. I said good night to Durrell at the train station and got on the train and headed home. I actually took the Q train and switched to a D train at Atlantic-Pacific. Watched Abridged Yu Gi Oh on my iTouch and laughed some and then listened to some calming R&B for the last few minutes of my trip home before getting inside the home, eating my breakfast, brushing my teeth and going to bed.

Sunday was a nice slow day, just watching news feeds and such before going to pick up lunch at Wendy's. That was a good Double. The rest of the night was calm, watching 60 minutes and such before 9pm rolled around and I watched True Blood on HBO. Loved it. The rest of the night is just chilling before bed as usual.

I wove together a complex tapestry of a nightlife ruled weekend and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I wouldn't change much and the Saturday night I think was flawless. Anyway, I will definitely look forward to the rest of the season, despite the crazy weather, it did not stop me and my friends from having a good time.

Unless there are tornados reported in central park, or lightning striking cars and blowing them up on my block, I will go out on Saturday Night.

Come with it then.

Serious Moment, is this knock-off buying RNC VP Pick for real?

I'm sorry,
Is it just me or while Palin was making her speech on stage
she gave the new baby to her "other" daughter
who washed the baby's hair with spit and was later seen (by myself and the TV Cameras)
picking at the baby's eyes.

Oh but she is so ready for the White House.

While she is out with her hockey mom trained ways wagging her finger at other world leaders when McCain is in the old folks home, her kids will be running wild with no diapers in the building, picking each other's eyes.

This is so sad.

If there are Americans who vote for this ticket because they are about "change" when all they can do is spout lies about taxes and big government then they deserve what they get. But then again these are the same people who complain about high prices right now but it is the corn lobby and the money spent on wars and not spending any money on keeping jobs in the US that has driven up prices here.

I await the debates.

8-27-08 - Silly Mid-Week Musings

If people wonder why I don't have time to update so much I guess because
I'm usually busy,
I work,
I have accounts on myspace
and twitter,
and I also keep up on current events across the internet.
Both technological and just funny.

But back to my musings..

I never did understand this song.

It always sounded like a girl in a downright abusive boy/girl interaction.
