...about Ryan Adams
Last summer I spent forty bucks to see him at Red Butte Gardens. It sucked. Big time. He sat behind a speaker so no one could see him and played songs I had never heard before that rambled on. And it wasn't loud enough. It was fun hanging out with my brother and his friends but the show sucks. All that said....I still just love his music. A lot. I can't stop listening to Demolition. I just think I caught him a bad day or something. But he is really so talented. And I am rediscovering his music. I used to listen to Gold and Demolition non stop a few years ago, then I forgot and I bought them on itunes recently and am hooked again.
Red Lobster is blah. I did not take the pictures. I am too shy to take pictures of other people. Plus, RL is lame. So I will start with that on a school day I think. A school day is much more interesting than a Red Lobster day. I do not like working there. So why do I do it? Why have I worked six days a week for almost nine months now? Because I can work one day a week and make an extra 700-800 bucks a month. Because I get to interact with adults. Because the managers are chill and easy to get along with. Because I work with awesome people who I very much enjoy getting to chat with each week. I have some really fun co-workers. Me and Tanica go to the bar almost every Saturday after work. Most of the time other people join us and someties Jason does. I am trying to convince her that she wants to be part of a bowling team with me and Michelle and whoever else wants to join. So about two months ago, I took a party of like 15 with this other guy I work with. And he did not help me AT ALL. He left me alone on the party plus my other three tables. It was way too much, I was freaking out. 27 people is too many to be a server for. For me anyway. He kept saying he would in a minute, etc etc but never did. Once I realized he never was going to help, I started asking other people to help me. I survived but I was on frayed nerves by the end of it. I went outside to smoke and saw him standing out there smoking too. And that was the last straw. So I flipped out on him. I started yelling at him and swearing at him right there in the parking lot for ditching me and leaving me with all the work. We used to be really good friends but that was kind of it for us. It was never the same after that. Then he stopped coming in to work so I assumed he quit. Which is fine because it had been awkward between us for a while. And yesterday, he showed up at work. Fuck. So that was weird.
