I just got home from a small party at a co-workers house. It was alright, they were glad to see me and all but this being a small college town, everyone was getting hammered. I'm not the straight edge type who thinks all drinkers are the scum of the earth: I don't drink, that's it.
It's not that anyone was being mean or rude and...

Dood... not only do you have to be awake for it but you have to watch it all happen. 
First, they put these drops into your eyes to numb you up for the cutting. Then, once your numb, the put you into this chair that leans you over until your basically upside down. They tape your eyelashes down so they won't get in the way, then they put this thing in your eye to keep it open and keep you from blinking.
Then the saw comes. They saw off a little flap so the laser can get to your actual eye. when the flap is made, they use a little pick to open it up and everything gets blurry. They put in a milky drop to make your pupils dialate, then they turn on the laser.
Repeat next eye.
It was like every medical nightmare I've ever had and totally fucking awesome at the same time (in a sick masochistic sort of way). I highly recommend it.
And I understand what you're saying about drinking. I'm not really a heavy drinker, and I hate being drunk. I do enjoy drinking and like drinking socially, but I would never want to go to a "kegger" or any of that. It was never really my scene either.

You know you have cool people on your friends list when they send you birthday wishes before you update your journal. Thanks folks!
In other news, damn, I'm 26 but I don't "feel" 26.

We're hoping "Beer & Burgers" will be taking place once a month, if not once ever couple of weeks. Other than the fact that we already take up three tables with our crew on busy Friday nights, everything has gone smoothly so far. You should definitely come out to the next one.
I will be at the SG Burlesque. I actually received my tickets in the mail a couple days ago, so I'm all set!

Ok! Update time already!
I saw Nine Inch Nails in Boston at the Orpheum on Thursday and it was fucking great! I also have a funny story about the show.
The band was positioned on stage like this going from left to right: Jeordie (AKA Twiggy Ramerez) on bass on the left, Allessandro on Keyboards behind him, Trent Reznor front and center, Aaron on guitars...

Ok, so the new Norma Jean album came out on March 1st........and nobody told me. Nothing about it on the SG newswire nore in the hardcore discussion group. What the fuck?
Well in any event I just got back from picking it up at the record store and it fucking kills. It's more straightforward and a little less spastic than their highly impressive debut, but...
