germany is beautiful, but i want to go home
So we all survived another week. I had developed this semi-politcal post in my head that I wanted to write before the election...but then the election came, and I threw up in my mouth a little bit, by the time I found a mint, I really had nothing even remotely constructive to say any more.
Wednesday I hung out with Emily. We got pizzza and watched Sorority Boys. I got to meet her family, and her dogs, and she showed me some of her graphic design work, so that was pretty cool.
My parents heard from Josh this week, who of course is in Iraq. He's pretty much in the shit. Lots of crazy stuff going on over there, and I haven't completely resolved with myself whether I feel comfortable relaying the stories to the rest of the world. Most of you probably don't even know I have a brother, so it seems silly to tell you how he's almost been blown up, or how many people he's had to kill.
This past week I got a promotion at work. I don't know if its technically a promotion, as I am not getting paid anything extra, and I don't have anyone to boss around...so, I suppose I really just got a new job title, which just means more responsibilities and shittier hours. Anyway, its cool I guess, apparently I'm doing something right, and its something else to put on my resumé.
Last night was a show up at Bates with The Minus Scale. It was pretty decent. All the bands that played were top notch. Not particually my style, but they were atleast good at what they were doing. It was a good time, and we were singing four part harmonies to Rooney on the way back home. My iPod saved the day.
Tonight we had that show with Mae/Simple Plan. We played first, which was shitty. Actually the whole setup of the show was pretty shitty, but we played/rocked well, probably sold a couple of t-shirts, and I maganed to hit the road before 9. So I can't really complain...though I am using like every last ounce of energy to type this shit.
Alright, lets kill this...
