happy days, went to "Movin' Out" last night. Not very good, as it was Billy Joel's songs set as showtunes, with ballerinas.. no joke. it was much like biting into a hotdog and getting a twinkie sort of taste. not very good, definetely not expected. but it was free for me, and the Captain Jack scene was pretty sweet. all i'll say is there's S&M.. so wierd. i wont spoil it though...
after that i got a message to go to the Grog for a show that promised to be amazing, but first KT and i had to hit the Cheesecake factory. i forgot she was trying to stop eating sugar.. she was at one and a half days of no sugar when she made the offer to drive to cheesecake heaven. when she got her desert it was a fucking mountain o' brownie. it looked like a brownie n' ice cream house. she finished like a quarter of it, and when i looked at it, it reminded me of a clown. i said this, and when i did i swear one of the ice cream eyes shed a tear, it was so wierd but funny. the waitor reminded me of any english new-wave guy with really bad teeth. everytime i saw him i got "dont you want me" stuck in my head.
then i had to hurry and get to the Grog before the headliner, whom i found out would be Gil Mantera's Party Dream.. best show i've seen all year folks.. they're amazing live.
twas pretty funny in attempting to get there, as KT was driving like 25mph all the way there.. i felt like screaming. i was ready to make her drop me off at the end of the street so i could just run there. i know it was really nice of her to drop me off but jesus..
THEN after the show i headed to case western's nice clean circulator bus, only to be harrassed by a drunk student who just came from the show and was looking to make a new friend. he kept tapping me on the shoulder. i was in the process of telling him to stop talking to me when my frind Ryan's wonderful white steed(car) came around the corner to save me. they got me off the bus and into safety. then we rolled to IHOP and siked out the waitress by ordering like 6 waters and then leaving. not to be spiteful, someone in our party got sick in the bathroom. a very eventful evening i must say.
other news, had to do resident assistant group processing today. not so bad, it was interesting to see the new group. also ran for almost an hour today, like 6 miles or something, not really sure but it was REALLY FAR i swear... drove my car to the gas station, which i didn't know if i would make it, i forgot how long the low fuel sign had been lit. paid my late fee for Super Size Me at Vidtsar and noticed they were playing Flying Circus on the tv, so i rented something. my friend Sean was at work so i said hello and got some free coffee, and now i'm just relaxing with my website work and watching some Life of Brian(Monty Python action for those who aren't in the know). yeah it's been a full two days.
if i'm not working then my roommates, my neighbors and i are going out for dinner on v-(chocolaty- crap)day. also my head is already in Dessau.
question: Phil or Ben? (Against All Odds)
i say Phil, a friend made the comment that Postal Service makes it sound like an R&B song. good point i think.
ciao
