some things annoy me
Mornings are far to stupid to live I tell you. Today is one of those days I woke up annoyed and it don't bode well for the rest of the day. I need lots of caffeine and sugar and possibly an alibi for murder and mayhem.
I was supposed to get my tattoo over the weekend. Did not happen. One of my regular customers at the comic shop is an apprentice at a particular tattoo parlor. He's a cutie and a good customer, so I figured what the hell right? He shops with me, I'll do business with him.
I made a 4 o'clock appointment with one of the guys in the shop. Showed up at just before 4, he had some one in his chair, no biggie I thought, it's not like this is a precision sort of deal time wise.
By 4:45 I'd asked for my deposit back. I got my money back but the guy was an ass. Totally unprofessional and just one of those all around know it all dicks. Hell, in retrospect, the whole shop was that way.
One of the other guys at the comic shop had recommended the shop he gets his ink done at so I ended up over there and made an appointment. They were way friendlier and more professional just from the lobby. Now I gotta wait til March 19 to get the other duck done, but I have a much better feeling about this shop and these artists. Hope they live up to it.
In other news, the StageIt show on friday with Kane was great! Really, if ya'll haven't checked out a show over there, do it. There are a ton of different artists, there's bound to be some one you're interested in. Also, it's way more intimate than you'd think. It's just the musicians and their laptop at the other end of the screen and that seems to make them a bit different. There's on crowd for them to feed off so it makes them sort of normal maybe, awkward at the least.
Apparently Chris and Steve are putting out an album with Brian Nutter (his official site) I want this really, really bad and I'm not patient damnit so can we have it now please?
On the crap end of the scale, I broke my christmas present headphones during the show. The BF got me a pair of Klipsch this year. Anyway, I sit with my legs under me mostly when I'm at the computer and I didn't realize the cord was wrapped round my foot and when I shifted position it pulled the jack outta the case, breaking the jack.
I was not thrilled. I was even less thrilled with myself when I was at Best Buy over the weekend and checked out headphones since I've gotta replace em and discovered how much the BF spent on my present. I have found a place that will repair them thankfully.
In other news, I've finally cracked open the word file with the Gabriel Big Bang! I've only edited through bout three pages, (re-writes are so sloooow) but I'm really happy with what I've done so far and I've added two hundred more freaking words! This feels like the story that will never end. I will be so happy to finish it up and get it posted.
