Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck

Yeah, that sums up today. It's humid as shit out today, I had to spend my lunch break at the dentist, and I'm going to fall asleep at work. This is terrible, I'm making coffee right now because if I don't I know I'm going to put my head down and just give up. It sucks when you are this tired at work, because you can't even think straight. I'm in this weird daze I'm so tired, and jacked up on coffee, but whatever, got to do what you got to do, and right now that is stay awake.

On the up swing, I just have to make it three more hours until the weekend, which is always a plus. I took Monday and Tuesday off of next week and I am driving down to the Jersey shore tomorrow afternoon for some fun in the sun. The shore is my family's yearly get away. The folks go down for two weeks, and I usually try and get a few days down there with them and other people that always end up going. Drinking beers in the sun on a nice day is one of those things that is always welcomed after a week like this one has been. I also look forward to eating at one of my favorite places. It is a Mexican place called Lex Mex. It is this Mexican food/surfer place that has awesome food and cool employees. It is also BYOB, so you can roll into the place with whatever you want to drink from the booze shop. Bringing in one of those margarita buckets is always a good move, just order food and hang out for the afternoon. It is going to be amazing.

I really don't have much else. How is everyone doing? I'm way to sleepy to think of anything else to write. All I can think about is sand, margarita in a bucket, sun, and not working for almost a week. Well, I'm off, try and cap this day up. Enjoy your weekend bitches!

COFFEE MUG!

Man, I have got to say, everyday I wake up for work and I fumble around my room trying to get my shit together for the day. I drive down to work, swipe in and get organized, and then it's relax time. What spells relax time? Coffee. I'm stuck between the ideas that it is just so delishious that I love to have a cup or two every morning...or I'm just finally addicted to caffine in the AM. Now before you go making assumptions, I don't drink nearly as much as I have seen some people drink in a day. I'd say my daily intake ranges between two and four cups, depending on how slow/busy my day is here at work. My boss also goes out every so ofter and buys those delishious Coffee Mate things, that come in a very tasty variety of flavors. So that is always a plus.

Enough about coffee though, it's Thursday! Almost time for all those crazy young kids to once again venture out to bars, hoping to go home and fuck a total stranger, only to post about it on txtsfromlasttime.com, which by the way has become one of my favorite websites to check while at work. It is basically user submitted text messages about the dumbass things they did/saw/heard/witnessed last night. All kinds of fun things about fucking, sucking, feltching, cheating, and whoring. I love it! Anyway, being that it is Thursday it means, only one more day until the weekend, which usually means I would have to pack up and haul off to some other random ass town with the boys. This weekend (and next weekend) I don't have to do anything. No shows for the next two whichs, which is always awesome because everyone needs a break to actually enjoy their real life. I will be spending this weekend with my girlfriend, probably catch a move, play a little beer pong in the pool (I don't remember if I meantioned this early in a post, I bought an inflatable beer pong tabel...I know, it's awesome) and just relax. Next weekend we are going down to the Long Beach Island, New Jersey to hang with my family and some friends and enjoy the beach. My family goes down every year, and I've missed a few summers in the recent years, so I'm pretty happy to head back down there for a long weekend. Word on the street is they have a bus that runs the length of the island for all the drunks to take back and forther, which is AWESOME because a lot of the good bars aren't within walking distance from the hosue we have, and no way am I going to drive down there. Driving drunk in LBI is like sneaking jews through Germany in the 1940's, you are going to get caught. Was that too much? Whatever, fuck it, not my fault people can't take a joke, or a Nazi reference.

So yeah, things are looking up these days. After this little two week break we are back in full swing with a bunch of great shows coming up in August and September, so come on out, and buy some shit, gas isn't free you know. A bunch of the shows coming up are at bars that we either drink for free of drink really cheap at, so I have a bad feeling my little stint on the wagon is going to be challenged, but hey, it's always good to take a break right? Bring on the free hootch, fuck it, only live once. Oh well, I think I need another mug of coffee, and I need to catch up on what the morons of the world did last night, and now regret, or can't remember. Oh yeah, and I'm going to see Atmosphere on Monday night in the city. This is the first time I've ever seen a rapper live, I'm very curious to see how this pans out. Should be awesome though.

I'm off to another day of work, coffee, and the internet. Maybe I'll even get something done today, who knows. Keep it real folks.

Pay, Muthafuckin', Day

Man, pay day is one of the most bitter sweet days ever. On one hand, it is always great to get paid, and feel like all the work you put in the for past two weeks was totally worth it. On the other hand, it is a reminder of all the bills that await payment sitting in your inbox/mailbox. Once you hit a curtain age, getting paid is just something that happens, rather then an exciting event. In any event, today is my pay day, and I'm pretty amped, the funds were slacking a little last weekend, so getting a boost is nice.

Aside from loving money and pay day, I love great weather, and I must say, it has been beautiful out the past week or two. We had so much rain come down last month, I thought I was going to have to go to Lowe's to buy some wood and start making my own Ark. But the sun god(s) smiled upon us, and out came the sun, and it has stuck around for a quite a while now. This is extra awesome being that I have a pretty bitchin' BBQ to attend this weekend. My fellow band mate, and good friend, Mike is having a huge party at his house. Weeks ago I dubbed this event, "Joe Tangney Fucking Rules Fest", name for his father, who does indeed fucking rule. We're going to fumble through a set with some friends sitting in on guitar because our guitarist Mac has to work. Should be interesting to see how this turns out. He also asked me to play a solo set. This will be the first time I'm playing solo songs in front of people since my Sophomore year of college, should be quite interesting. I'm probably going to bang through a bunch of covers and maybe a few of my own songs, who knows, depends on how drunk I get before I have to play. Chances are I will be pretty intoxicated, being that this is a party, and they have all the ingredients for a great night of fun. Booze, ladder golf, pool/hot tub, and music. Come on, how could a party NOT be awesome. Personally I could have a great time with some beer and the ladder golf, but all the other stuff will indeed make it that much sweeter. At any rate, good times are ahead, I hope you guys remember them, because I probably won't. That's it, I'm done.

You stay classy Internet.

From the deep

Heeeeeeeeeeeeeey all. Been a while hasn't it? Yeah, to be completely honest, it was a perfect mix of being busy and busy lazy. I have been completely swamped for the past 2 weeks at work, which is when I usually write this little thing I call a blog, and when I get home, I'm just not in the mood to do anything except maybe have a beer, playing some XBOX, and noodle on my guitar. But, work as calmed down, and the rain finally went away, so I'm feeling extremely motivated. Sweet right? I thought so also. Well, in 2 weeks, nothing really amazing has happened. This past weekend was the 4th of July, which is always a good time, because everyone I know usually does nothing but BBQ amazing meat products and drink, 2 things that I love. I bounced around the tri-state area going to multiple BBQs and parties and for the most part, had a fantastic time. I had some really fucked up dreams the past few nights, which could be due in part to only ingesting alcohol and BBQ for a few days straight, but fuck it, right? We're here to have fun, so lets do it big.

So, as I right this on Monday afternoon, I look forward to another weekend. I took Friday off of work because we are once again making the trek up to Plattsburgh, NY to rock the Green Room all weekend. If this weather holds up until then, it looks like it is going to be a great weekend. We have some friends up there now (including the owner of the bar we play at, tight) so we can usually dig up some stuff to do. Last time we were in town, I spent the weekend with my girlfriend, hanging out with one of her college friends, eating good food, and riding around on their speed boat. The guys went cliff jumping and hit up a BBQ at the bar owners house. Hopefully the weather is nice this weekend, and people will want to do some more cliff jumping. Nothing better than throwing yourself off a really high cliff into unknown waters over and over again, all while enjoying beers, which only leads to dumber and dumber ideas.

Well folks, I think that about covers it, my life isn't all that interesting, but I try as hard as I can. We are finally seeing some nice weather here in the tri-state area, which is awesome because the month of rain we had before this was just a bummer man.

Oh yeah, and I found out Motorhead is playing in the city right around my birthday...sweet? No, no, it is going to be FUCKING sweet.
