had a good night last night. hung out with bri, went to the roxy, went to everyday music and bought a shit-ton of records and the guy undercharged me by about $4, intentionally i think... i wasn't sure if i should take it as a come-on, a gesture of goodwill and overall coolness, or a sign of stupidity. either way i liked it. then we went to wal*mart and found absolutely nothing worthwhile. went back to my house, dicked around for a bit, and then fry came over.
we all hung around pretty much all night, looking at records for fry to spin, fry ruthlessly demolishing me in pong, etc. bri and fry actually seemed to get along for once. it scared me and made me happy at the same time. i do fear an alliance, but as long as i have super-ultramega macho-bearded greg i should be fine.
went to fat dave's for breakfast since it was open at whatever ungodly hour we went, then picked up kent from wherever he was and then back to my place. bri and fry went their seperate ways, leaving me to fuck around until i had to take nick to the courthouse, blah blah blah, i occassionally realize how little the proceedings of my daily life mean to anyone.
the important things though: picked up two fatty paychecks from fred meyer so i have lots of money, revelled in the glory of my new records, (including a major misprint of "the lovin' spoonful - do you believe in magic" with the correct, kama sutra label on one side and the bizaare stamping of a hank williams mgm label on the other... still trying to figure that one out, and i'm excited), and found out spectacular news about my truck. apparently, it's worth much, much more than i thought. i assumed they were going to offer me maybe $2500 or so for the salvaged truck, and instead the offer is just over $4000. if i want to keep the truck, they can still give me just over $3000. best part(s) - that isn't figuring in the after market cd player/speakers and the chrome wheels; and my insurance guy said they typically offer 70% of the actual assessed value, so if i really piss and moan the figure would be over $5700 to let them keep the salvage, or $4700 if i keep it. not including the little added bonuses i just mentioned. that's more than enough to fix the truck, and maybe even get a new paint job and a custom bonus or two that i've been wanting to add for like two years. altezza lights. bedliner. chrome accents if there was a lot left over. i don't knowwww but i'm entirely stoked over this.
tonight i have two events to attend, and lots of fun to have. relatively well-behaved fun, though, since i work at 10 a.m. tomorrow. don't want to get pukey, oversleep, and miss work again. i dont like looking like an irresponsible prick. i like to maintain a facade of respectability you know.
now i do laundry, drool over the possibilities of the monies, maybe read... word.

god it's been a lovely day, everything's been going my way, i've had so much fun today and i'm on fire
