So the SG Seattle kids put on a pretty mean barbecue, as I found out Saturday night. And though I don't drink and I ain't no social butterfly by any account, I had fun. I made some more friends there and hopefully dispelled once and for all that rumor that I'm a cannibalistic serial killer.
I goaded MisterSatan into writing a testimonial for me. My first. I think he hit the mark.
I also learned three very valuable lessons:
No. 1: Never bake anything that you've never made before just because it sounds good. In theory, the cake I made should have been fantastic. In reality it was anything but. It wasn't exactly poisonously bad, but it was a few rungs down the ladder from mediocre.
No. 2: Aftershock is not fit for human consumption. Sorry, MrDeity but I don't know what to do with this stuff. Do people actually drink this to get plastered or are you supposed to take it at the onset of a cold? I couldn't make heads or tails of it.
No. 3: Boobs are fantastic. This is actually just common knowledge, but I believe it's a mantra that bears repeating. Let he who is without temptation launch the first protest...so the rest of us guys can laugh at him for being a mincing sissy.
Despite my better judgement (which has been manifesting itself in an increasingly passive-aggressive fashion these days) I spent A SHITLOAD of money yesterday. The day started off with my brother asking me if I wanted to buy a Gamecube for $25. A friend of his was selling it off because he couldn't afford to make rent. Now, I don't even really care for video games, but before I could say "no thanks" I found myself saying "yeah sure". I don't know if it was the bargain hunter nature that is intrinsic in all men, I mean, a Gamecube for twenty-five bones is a steal after all. I however suspect it was my sadistic nature that demands that I take advantage of the desperate. I declined to buy the other games he was offering, but since he reasoned that no one would want to buy the games without the system he threw them in at no cost. Score another for my inner bastard. Point, set and match.
It would have been fine if I'd been able to stop right there, but no. While browsing the aisles at Best Buy, I alighted upon the Holy Grail of trash cinema...
For you Santo faithful and drive-in movie buffs that's four of The Silver Mask's films: en la Venganza de la Momia, contra la Hija de Frankenstein, contra el Doctor Frankenstein, and contra Dracula y el Hombre Lobo. My only regret is that it didn't contain El Santo contra las mujeres vampiros which was the first El Santo movie I ever saw. In case you're still wondering, yes, it has been a while since I've been laid. I imagine that mentioning all this will effectively lengthen that streak.
Anyway, that did me in. From there it was only a hop, skip and a jump to One Million Years B.C., a CD from Rhino's Ultra-Lounge collection, and a Johnny Cash "best of" disc. Christ, I have a famously weak will. Oh well, unlike the moral majority around here I fucking love corporate America. Yeah, you heard me right, I'm a cog in the machine! I consume therefore I am. I'd liscence the rights to my human existence if it would further my pursuit of material possessions.
Any old how, have a nice week and remember to drink your milk, take your vitamins, do your homework and say your prayers....
