Really today wasn't all that bad. Until tonight. More on that later.
I got up at the buttcrack of dawn to go shoot a Charity Event for the Multiple Sclerosis Society. I have photographed many of their fundraising events over the last few years. My mom has MS and I really like to volunteer these guys anyway that I can. So I drive to Denton in the pouring rain and I get there and the event is still on. Long and the short of it: it stopped raining for most of the walk and then after about 50% of the people that participated had finished, it starting raining. very very hard. Oh and in the meantime I locked my keys in my truck. DOH. My dad drove all the way up from FT Worth with a spare. I owe him a big ass favor. So after all that, I go home...again the rain. I got home downloaded and burned the images that I shot and then headed off to a paying gig I had at 5 in Dallas. I assisted this guy shooting a wedding. Turns out he's not a wedding photographer but a architectural photographer doing a favor for the bride and groom. Turns out he's friends with both of them. OK so after shooting a billion photos we are done and I head home.
On the way home I called my friend elmnopo to see what him and his bro superrice are up to. By this point it's 11pm and I'm tired as hell. I thought about going home but I went and met up with them at the Fox and Hound that we always hang at. I'm a regular there (even though I don't drink anymore) and everyone who works there knows me. So we're shooting pool and this way drunk motherfucker comes up to us and starts saying he wants to play us for money. We tell him no thanks and maybe that guy over there would play him for money. He goes and talks to this other dude and then comes back and starts talking shit. By this time it was just me and superrice cuz elmnopo went to pee. So he;s saying shit like hey why did you tell me that guy would play for money? I say we didn't say he would, just that he might. Then I'm looking at him and apparently his drunk stupid spoiled TCU frat boy fucking shithead self, thinks I wanna start a fight. So very uncharacteristic of me, I get in the guys face and tell him to fuck off and leave us alone. He says would wanna fight and I said ok fucker let's do it, hoping that we don't get to that point. He wants to take it outside and on our way out one of his frat boy cocksucker friends comes and tries to diffuse the situation and go back to playing pool. I can see them talking about us and hear them say they're gonna jump us in the parking lot like we're in fucking high school or some shit. Oh he called me a fag at one point too...how edgy. Anyways, we got back to playing pool and then decide we're gonna leave. We pay our tabs and head outside. And guess who comes out too...you guessed it. So i go to the asshole's friend "look I appologize for being rude but your friend was talking shit and I wasn't in the mood for it." He says ok and we shake hands. Oh I also said I heard them talking about kicking my ass when I got outside. Guess they think I'm deaf and couldn't hear them talking about me. So I say this to them and they guy who started this whole shit won't appologize or accept my appology. Fine fuck him, they go back inside and I leave, watching my rearview mirror the whole way home on the odd chance they are following me. Guess they weren't. Now I'm home and pissed. Motherfuckers tried starting shit in my HOUSE...a place where I go seriously like 4 times a week atleast. Fuckers.
