Some Promises

if you're reading this i'm in san jose. technically, even if you're not reading this i'm still in san jose but if you're not reading this you probably don't care to know where i am. nonetheless, i'm in san jose and have been since monday.

aside from trying to spend this blessing of an unemployment reconstructing the powers of my soul, i've also vowed to fix relationships i've lost or nearly lost over working 2-11pm friday through tuesday and the nonsense just before that job.

basically, now is when you should want to ask me to help you because i'm likely to do it knowing i may have no other chance and also knowing it's a decent adventure. the stranger the better-- believe me.

naturally, i can't please everyone and mr. brandon meixellent, who was a part of our friday antics, has done his best to make me feel bad about it all.

"you're like what i hate most about my job is how i can't go to trivia anymore. wah, wah, wah. and then you don't even show up. and you're going to be in san jose next trivia? you're a fucking dick."

"hey," i said, "i've got serious damage control going on here. i need to pretty much save every relationship i've deserted over the last year. i promised i'd help my mom on monday."

"oh whatever," he said as he leaned on his very hipster fixie, "you know how you can make it up to me?"

"hah," i scoffed, "how?"

"by coming up with the next three trivia movie-rounds. and coming to see scott pilgrim with us tomorrow."

"okay, i'm down," i said, "you know how you can make it up to me?"

"make what up to you?"

"shut up" i shouted drunkenly, "you can give me a cigarette."

and if i may add that i did go see scott pilgrim with the crew and brandon fell into a deep whiskey-induced sleep mid-way through the movie. or maybe not even mid-way. the story goes that there are seven evil exes and he was awake for perhaps two and a half.

also, i've sent a great list of movies for the next three trivia rounds. and i'll be at the next-next trivia ready for a serious operation of answering questions and drinking beers.

anyway, i'll be back from san jose tonight.
