The wedding was fun. It was held at the conservatory at Garfield Park. Spacious, plenty of dancing...my nephew's nickname slipped into the wedding vows, as well as the toasts. Spoon?
Thursday night was a good time. Friday was a little hectic - and then that night I realized that my feet got about 40 bug bites. Saturday I spent with my shoes off, taking benadryl....

independent contractor tax is crazy!
1/2 price food & drinks at Finn's on Sunday night, the launching point for a friend's birthday.
Going to the sweltering pit of Chicago on Thursday for my nephew's wedding (I'm the youngest of six, he's like a little brother).
Actually, it's arrive Thursday, go out to Indiana to some lakeside hosues, drink & play games...come back on Friday, go to a family dinner where...

finn's is yucky. i admit to not having been there for quite awhile, but i can't imagine it has changed much. do you guys still go to the emigrant?
i live in capitol hill now, and i haven't checked out the bars yet. kincora does not look promising, but clever dunes might be ok.
as for job... yes please get me a job before me and my kitties starve to death. i just graduated, so i quit my old job, and now i can't seem to find another. well i've had some offers, but they were just horrible. i have this desire to work within an hour of my house, during daylight hours, for more then minimum wage... call me fussy.

ps my cousin, also like a little sister, got married on sunday. it was crazy. sad/happy/crazy.
I'm going to lock up my credit card. And debit card. After this week. Work is going to be hell, which means drinks after work.
I just came back from Columbus, OH...game convention was pretty fast. The pool table is installed, but has a slight chip on one of the rails - they're overdue calling me about the fix. My Paddy Rock comp. album came...

Zed's dead, baby. Zed's dead.
I'm mostly recovered from my bout with insanity. I even managed it without standard standbys, like alcohol, sex, drugs, or loud music. Okay, so the drugs part is extra, but I survived, nonetheless.
I've been planning on getting a pool table for my apartment for 6+ months. I couldn't find a decent, cheap table in stores, and scouring craigslist for...

The new Dropkick Murphys album is out.
Not officially, probably - they're still taking pre-orders for release on June 21st.
"Wicked Sensitive Crew" is awesome.

Just came back from Jules Maes. The Wages of Sin was a blast - I ran into one of my favorite ex-bartenders from the Emigrant, and hing out with him for a bit.
Jules Maes reminds of a gentrified bar that I went to in Chicago this past March...a bunch of white kids hanging out, in a ....kitschy bar, where the real regulars have been...

Doughty tomorrow night. Friends from work are talking about getting there at 4pm - dude, the doors don't open until 8, and Cap. Hill is not that exciting, well, especially during the 'day'. I'm expecting a variety of friends to be there, so that'll be good.
Ditching out of work Thursday morning to see Ep. 3. I'm guessin 9:30 am, I'll get decent seats, without...

We didn't make it to the Doughty show (damn). Tell let me know how it was!
So, this is the second round at this entry.
Either I had my computer hacked, and I was reset; or my ipod is doing hateful things, and I was reset. It's been rejecting my new doughty album, sadness.
Tonight is drinking. A friend gets back from basic training (part deux), after having been called back to active service. After the short break here, he goes...

but you were supposed to ask me the question
I'm looking for pirate-themed music. Rock is fine, punk is fine, folk is fine.
For some theme party to be named later. Arh.

Strangely enough, I thought the low prices almost made up for the lack of liquor everywhere.
Then again, I'mused to L.A. prices where a shitty apartment surrounded by phychopaths will cost close to two grand.
Strange times.

NCAA finals are usually a bad time to find a place to drink.
Fortunately, I found my way to Los Margaritas. My coworkers were wise - Mexican + basketball crowds = {}.

I got slaughtered playing ticket to ride this morning. Played with a friend and a friend of said friend (NY-side of the continent), along with some co-workers.
I should wake up earlier, and drink more. Ach!
Tonight is darts at the emigrant, and then a four-day work week.
