This week felt like a weekend because I went to a show, had dinner with friends, and hung-out at an art-show. It's really been a very social week, making it almost like a weekend, except I have to work all day, which means that I feel antsy because I don't get some all-important down-time to sit around wasting my youth on things I won't remember when I'm old. Maybe I WILL have vivid video game memories on my deathbed. Maybe each of my lives will flash before my eyes. Maybe it'll be one looong, boring flash.
fun night
Whatever the case, Monday night I saw Andrew WK play at the Black Cat. The show was awesome, I partied until I almost puked, which is arguably better than partying until you actually puke, regardless of the opinions of mr. WK. I took a bunch of pictures and the staff of the venue asked me to control the Flash on my camera, but that was fine because the show was over at that point. If you can go see him, please do so.
No, It's pot-skill
Wednesday night was a put-luck at Chad's apartment, which will soon be Kevin and Erica's apartment, and that was goodtimes as well. It was the basic McDonald's formula of food, folks, and fun, although things got a little rocky at the end when Erica and I had a minor disturbance in our collective force and had to go discuss it, but what is a rose without it's trivial thorns? A smooth stemmed rose that doesn't prick your finger when you touch it? I don't know, maybe the thorns keep predators from chowing down on those tasty rose petals? In closing, we all ate too much.
avoiding fartsy
Last night was Melanie's art-show-opening at DC-CD in the city. We headed down there and drank wine and talked to people and looked at the art and fulfilled all requirements of Art-opening-patrons. If you're in the DC area, go check out her stuff, it's in the way-back of the store against the back-right wall. The low-point for me was when the show was ending and I decided I'd go try to buy the new Eazy-E album/DVD/PCVideoGame I had seen when I came in, only to find that someone had stolen it while I was mulling over whether it was worth my while (and my $25) or not. We capped the night off with a trip to Ben's Chili Bowl, even though my stomach had assumed the dinner window was long gone and I didn't need it. As we all know, I eat without reason.
bring it all back to you
My week was like a weekend because I saw Andrew WK, went to a pot--luck, and attended an art-show opening. As a resut I am now looking forward to my real-actual-factual weekend as a time to relax and do things which have no merit whatsoever. The last couple lines of a 5-paragraph essay are always the hardest for me. But now they are done.
