oooookay....got lots of work tonight, so I must start with an update as a wonderful means of procrastinating....
weekend in toronto was fucking great.....saturday went to the library w/ my girl to get a chunk of reading done, then had chinese dinner and went out for drinks w/ her friends...my girl has a pretty tight group of pals but her best friend's fiance is this guy from nyc who i really get along with, so it's def nice to have another americano outsider in the clique to crack jokes w/...ended up at this burlesque show at some club where we had a friend working the bar to hook us up w/ mad drinks (awesome! )....ended up back at the apt doing shots of greek brandy and blasting old public enemy records till 4am until the upstairs neighbors unhappily awoke, oops
sunday night was my girl's pal's b-day...had a nice dinner, cake and then pre-gamed watching texas chainsaw massacre (the original).....great to watch w/ a group, and great drinking game, every time you hear the chainsaw or the girl screams DRINK MOTHERFUCKER!!!! next stop was this great little karaoke bar which was sooooo much fun....place was run by this guy who was exactly like sam elliot (i.e.:the cowboy from the big lebowski) except he had a mullet...i did a stunning rendition of bon jovi's "living on a prayer"
monday night had dinner at my girl's parents, was super nervous but everything was great....finally met her dad, and he was mad cool with me....was actually a real big step in our relationship....flew back later that night feeling super close to her, most confident I have ever felt in a relationship w/ someone, fucking love this girl so much
yesterday the weekend was officially over for me and reality reared its ugly head in once again...my best friend's younger brother died last thursday of cancer...we met up for drinks last night to talk, reminisce, etc...very hard to deal with, kid was only 23 years old...my brother is still in college 40 mins away from me...after a few drinks (against our better judgement) my friend and I decided to go to this college party my brother invited us to....around 1 am i was in the basement of this place playing beer pong or something when i heard this commotion from upstairs...aparently my friend and a frat boy got into it and they were fighting...4 against my one friend, nice odds! pulling his dreds and calling him a "nigger" no less, cute huh? i immediately jumped in and took quite a kicking myself till the thing got broken up....shit happend so fast, i just remember putting one kid in a choke hold while his buddies stomped the back of my skull, face is unscathed though, still gorgeous (silver lining) but have been going to classes wondering all day if i have a fucking concussion, my friend's ear was bleeding quite a bit, but walked away from it and managed to get some hits in as well.....when these little bastards drink they have such a fucking mob mentality though, at one point we both thought we were going to get seriously fucked up, white frat boys fight like such fucking pussies, utterly dickless faggots what a fucking day...went to bed monday night sooo fucking happy, and went to bed tuesday night thinking i was in hell, funny how shit can change just like that....
and now here i am, back in the library....just bought a ticket for my girl to come see me in two weeks (for an entire week no less!), so that's good anyway, think i've written enough, thanks for reading, that was very cathartic take care everybody....

2. providence: is sadly a huge college town so there are a lot of dance clubs infested with either the local guidos and the idiot college frat boys and sluts. but there is also a very cool local music scene in providence and it's not all wack and crappy. there is so much going on I can't even keep up. what station do you listen to? I hope you listen to 95.5 WBRU because they are the best for information about shows and your kind of club scene. you can check out their website, too.
so yeah hopefully that will help you. you need to get out of fall river and the like. ick.
otherwise, I hope you're good. oxox
