Blowing off steam

I feel like a total douche...I only posted once this week, and it was just a link to some other really great article. I had just a miserable week...like literally one for the ages. I got yelled at by every single one of my managers at work for something every day...I was in traffic for a record 24 hours this week due to an impromptu snowstorm...and oh ya, the Colts lost the fucking superbowl.

A bad week in college was getting kicked out of a bar before 2 am, back to back whiskey dick episodes, or an 8 am interview on a Friday...that was it. Now I deal with that shit like twice daily...its called life. So what do you do when the world turns its back on you? (you turn your back on the world hakuna motata?)

No, you drive down to St. Louis to get fucking shit-housed for 2 days to forget about how much your present life sucks. For 48 hours I will make hurricane jokes about the real mardi gras because I now have a lifelong grudge against New Orleans, and because of some age old tradition, I will throw plastic beaded necklaces at drunken 17 year olds and get a free peep show to some high quality live action lolita porn (too much? maybe who cares.)

I've been jet setting a lot lately and my actions are spiraling quite out of control, my friends are in the early workings of staging an intervention. (Oh the irony the kid behind me just put on Joe Walsh's Life's been good to me so far) on that note if my current actions leave me unable to talk due to substance induced strokes when I'm 60 but I can still shred the guitar like the Eagles' axe-man, well, I'll chalk life up as a success.

Mardi Gras is a holiday that was turned into a booze juiced party ebcause it falls in the middle of winter...depressing. Maybe this mini-bender will spark some life back into a once vibrant and joyful individual...or maybe my vices will get the best of me this weekend and I'll come back with some great war stories but just a little bit more emotionally hollow...

...or maybe I'll find the girl of my dreams and by her a Vermont Teddy Bear for Valentine's day...stay tuned my friends.
