Tell Me Where Did You Sleep Last Night
So on Thursday I got a call from Tor. I love getting calls from him, because I fucking love that guy. Seriously, it's always good to hear from that god. Anyway, he called me to ask me to come to see the Pirates Charles play with Mursic at CIA in North Hollywood. Because of my work schedule I haven't been able to see the Pirates in the past 2 months, but I happened to have Friday night off and it was a perfect opportunity to support my friends and go to a venue I've never been to before.
Orry and I finished Shabbat Dinner, met up with Gabe then drove out to Burbank and Tujunga to find CIA... apparently we had to look for a scary looking clown on a large iron gate... and of course Pirates standing outside the front. It's an interesting venue... kind of like an evil sideshow got taken over by pirates... it was awesome! It was all ages but they had a bar, it was hot and cramped but it was a great show. I ran into a lot of people I know, I got interviewed by the CSUN radio station, I bought the Mursic CD and I showed strong support for my friends. We got out around 1am... it was a great time.
I have the entire weekend off (randomly) and I've been doing everything I can to make sure I relax and recharge. I've been having emotional issues with work and school lately and I needed some time off to get mentally stable. For the most part, my Saturday was productive and enjoyable. I woke up late in the afternoon, I went out with Orry and Kyle to see Saw IV - which was really good - and then hung out at home for a while. Later in the night the 3 of us went out to Up In Smoke (Hookah Bar) to just talk and spend some time together... very rarely do the three of us get to hang out, so it was really nice. Afterward I came back home, sparked up and watched Viruosity with Colby.
During the evening, between Saw IV and the Hookah Bar I spent some time chatting with Taryn. She's a friend that I've got interest in and it was nice to be able to spend some time talking to her on the phone... she's an amazing woman, truth be told, and I'm glad for the opportunity to get to know her better.
My Sunday might prove to be more on the relaxing side and less on the productive side. I plan on ordering some Indian food and enjoying Survivor Series with the roomies. I need to return the DVD's I rented and grab some new ones. All-in-all, pretty chill.
Well, that's enough brain-dumping for now... I did the best I could to reduce that feeling of "there was something more I wanted to say" but I can never really get rid of it. Oh well.
Until next time,
Adieu~
