Today was Armageddon on the poison ivy and poison oak in my back yard. I used a god awful amount of weed killer but I don’t care I’ve spent the last two weeks trying not to scratch the hell out of my arms.

A friend of mine has a big picnic every Memorial Day and this year’s was the best yet. This was the first party that I’ve been to since I quit drinking so that was kind of strange (no falling out of trees or chasing people naked) nothings bruised or broken. I got to jam with a friend and it was amazing I haven’t played that well in quite a while, we almost never get to do this anymore we were in a band a while ago and then everyone started having families and that kind of ended that. Next weekend we are going to do it again at his place.


The think that made me happiest this weekend was that there was a flag at my dad’s marker.

had a pretty good weekend

I buried my cat Smokey this morning

I found my amp in the dark, I now have 9 toenails. That should teach me to put things back when I'm done with them.

them watched Office Space last week and this time I didn't laugh because that move seems to be my life right now.

I finally found a place to eat with a friend who is a vegetarian, its a Mediterranean place and really good. Trying to date a vegetarian when you are not is so freaking hard.

Sobriety is working quite well and has some perks. A friend of mine has two cars in up in Wisconsin friend and he wants to bring them back to Pennsylvania one is a Cadillac Fleetwood and the other is an Old's 442 (sweet). He wants me not his nephew to drive one because I'm sober and have a clean driving record.

I have seen pictures of these cars over the years and they are freaking gorgeous, I want the Fleetwood for the highway ride but when we get back I want to get my hands on that 442. The bonus to this is I'm going to get paid.

I took the day off because I needed it. This morning I took a couple of rifles up to the range to take out a couple of zombie targets, the club rents out ranges to the local police for qualifying and today was a big one about 30 people qualifying. They can only have so many at a time so I wound up with an audience while I was shooting which was strange but I did make a bunch of them laugh when the saw my zombie target.

I did do seething a little more normal after that I went to see the Avengers. Freaking awesome movie, I was really happy with what Joss did, the movie is really funny and not unintentionally they need that Hulk in the last couple of Hulk movies.

I had fun today I wouldn’t have done that at the office.

I quit drinking 9 weeks ago and since then I have been spending a lot of mi time doing this.




A .44 mag and a bunch of unserviceable fire extinguishers make for a fun hour or so.

I’ve been fighting through a sinus infection and this weekend I did nothing but rest to get over this thing quickly.

Yesterday a friend of mine dropped by bringing me some soup, I was really amazed at this we went out a couple of times but it just didn’t work and she goes out and does this.

I’m depressed that the Pens are out of the playoffs but I think I’m falling for someone special.
