haven't posted anything in a couple weeks due to havin been running around the city like crazy. my uncle Raymond passed away a couple weeks ago. it hit the family pretty bad seeing that it was an unexpected death. he's had asthma for years and apparently died after a bad asthma attack triggered a heart attack. uncle Ray was the crazy uncle on my mother's side of the family. he was slightly unhinged and would say and do some whacky things. he never really fit in with the family but we all loved him. i always kinda related to that seeing that i'm the whitest puerto rican in the family... and prolly the entire world. i was in a weird place for a week not knowing how exactly how to feel after his death. thankfully booze and friends helped me thru it and helped me keep my mind off ot it. i know drowning grief and hurt in alcohol isn't the helathiest thing to do but it does help me to a point. i'm just one of those weirdo types when it comes to emotions and how to express them. it was nice to see and spend time with family who i haven't seen in years tho. hopefully we'll be able to stay in better contact now.
had a good time on the Erin Express severaal weeks ago. ended the night at Finighan's Wake a round the same time i blacked out. don't really like the place but some friends i haven't seen in awhile were there so i sucked it up. now from what i've heard from some people is that i ended up bein that obnixious drunk guy in the place, a role that i'm not proud of but have taken up on more than one occassion, and that i got kicked out 3 times. first time was due to me sneakin in thru a side door and not getting my hand stamped. so i get my hand stamped and go oback in. second times was due to me slippin. fallin on my ass and instead of gettin up right away and playin it off i just layed there and laughed at myself. the bouncers flagged me and kicked me out again. i got back in thru that side door again. i can't remember and no one else can recall y i was kicked out the last time. o well,i had fun.
this past saturday, for my friend hojo's b-day, a bunch of us rented a busand took it to mid-evil times in north jersey. it was my first time goin and i had a fuckin ball. people dressed up as kings, gueens, wenches and knights putting on a show for us as we eat food with our hands 'cause utensils weren't used back in mid-evil days. the place waas huge and people were seated in sections and each section had their own knight to root for. our knight was the black and white knight. in the final battles our knight was the first to die at the hands of the jerk-wad green knight. we were all hopin that if we clapped loud enough our knight would come back to life just like tinkerbell did in peter pan, but to no avail. so everytime the green knight or did something we got an "over-rated" chant goin. we got a couple chants goin. after my first 52oz mug of ale i got a "rufio" chant goin for no reason at all. great fuckin time.in the end the lost prince returned and killed the green knight so it was a happy ending. as soon as i get my camera back from my friend christine i'llpost some pics up.
in the next coming weeks i have a couple beef and beers to attend. haven't been to one in a long damn time. and hopefully i'll get a call back for an interview for sunoco corp. they're in need of experienced IT guys at their office downtown at one penn center.. gotta a friend of a friend who works there and was told mine was one of the better resumes. so here's hopin. papa needs a brand new job.
