KARAOKE PART II

Well, I didn't win the $500 like I would have liked to. I did a good job, nailed the song but the girl who won was better than I was. She was also pretty hot. The contest was based on the audience and she had her posse with her. A lot of my friends had left already because it was about 1:00 a.m. in the morning. So, I'll be poor this Christmas.

MY CAR

The battery in my car took a dump today. I was able to get $40 for returning it and and extra $10 off for getting a Sears charge card. I figure I will pay for it in a month when work is kicking my ass and the money is good. The car works great again and the tail light problem I was having has gone away.

COOL TUNES TODAY

Jane Child - Don't Want To Fall In Love
Aphex Twin - Milkman

HAPPY TURKEY DAY!

Hey, Happy Thanksgiving!!! Hope you all have a great time with friends and family eating the perverbial bird and all. I'm cheating and letting Boston Market cook that bitch for me this year! I'm thankful for that. So gobble gobble it all up and don't binge to the point of no return. Oy, got to go. The kids are not so thankful and a fight ensued.

KARAOKE

Shit goes down Friday night! I'm in the finals of a karaoke contest and the prize is $500! I got quite a few friends going to back me up and maybe some other people I don't know that well. If your in Tucson and want to help cheer me on your invited. It's at Terry and Zeekes on Speedway and Swan. I'll be getting there around 10 p.m. to get a buzz going.

LIFE

So things are a little better. Josie isn't as depressed as she was. I think she will be changing jobs at the end of December. She will be working part time with me! She has done it in the past and she's fast. She will work a lot less, make more money than she is currently making, and be happier in the long run. Wish her luck, she's my bitch.

EVIL, FUCKING EVIL!

What is evil? I know, it's subjective. But the first bit of EVIL is this! Yes, they are remaking The Evil Dead! This time the budget will be huge and I"m sure Sam Rami will make sure they don't screw it up. I'm stoked! I love this movie.

EVIL II

The next bit of evil ties in with Josie's evil sister and the depression I was talking about in the last post. We got a call today from the school that her kids attend. They ask if we know Laverne's whereabouts because school has been out for over two hours and nobody came to pick up the kids. It took the kids two hours to remember where they lived, and when they remembered they called the apartment complex office which in turn called us because Josie's mom used us as a reference. The office doesn't know that Laverne and her kids are living in that one bedroom apartment with her mother and can't understand why the school would call them. Well, the sister and Josie's mom are nowhere to be found and the school has called the police. Lovely, this is the shit that is fucking my wife up. So we head over there because it's only about ten minutes away. We get there and the kids are already gone, picked up by their mother. So I get two stories:

SCHOOL MIX: Laverne was on the other side of town and her radiator blew up and burned her. She wasn't able to call because she has no money to pay to have her phone connected.

LAVERNE MIX: Laverne was cooking with lard. The pan "flew" and all the lard poured over her face and chest. Her ex-husband took her to the hospital where they gave her a shot and sent her on her way.

So what really happened? Who fucking knows. Laverne is a pathological liar and theif and I have a feeling she was over at the Casino spending her moms social security check and the piece of shit car she drives overheated. Seeing she is not very bright she probably lifted the hood and removed the cap from the radiator. Oh, and this ended in an argument on the way to the school. I said they will probably take the kids to foster care. Josie said she would take them in (adopt) before she let foster care take them. I said there is no way I'm taking on five fucked up kids into my house. Josie felt it was maybe better for her to leave me, get her own place and adopt Laverne's kids so that they don't end up in foster care. That was the wrong thing to say. I'm not too happy at the moment. Yes, I let her know it was the wrong thing to say.

WHAT HAPPENED?

So your probably wondering where I've been. Well, it's been a weird week and Josie has been severely depressed. She was crying a lot, wouldn't talk to me, and wouldn't answer my questions that I kept asking her. It took me almost three days to figuratively beat it out of her.

Well, sounds like the majority of it is her worrying about her mom. We got her mom her own apartment and she was doing fine. What happened is what I knew was going to happen, warned Josie and her family would happen, and told them not to be shocked when it did. Laverne, Josie's good for nothing, welfare riding, jobless, filthy, lying, cheating, stealing, evil sister moved back in with her mom along with her five kids, and is making her life miserable. They are talking about packing it all up and moving to Vegas. This has Josie nervous, but makes me happy. The farther that train wreck is from me the better. Josie's mom is an adult and can make decisions. She makes poor decisions but that's not our fault. Her mom loves being in dysfunctional scenarios and I predicted this would happen back when she was still living with us.

The other is me. She feels I'm ignoring her and not paying enough attention to her. I told her that when I do try to give her attention that she pushes me away and says stop, or not right now, or don't. By attention I mean just that, it's not a sex thing. So a lot of times I just give up and come in here to the computer and that makes her jealous. So I don't think that part is entirely my fault. The other part is my fault. I joke around at those moments when she is pushing me away and go into my mail order bride routine. Well, she doesn't find this humorous at all and I guess it hurts her feelings. Enough said, I'll no longer do that. So anyway, after a long talk and all she was pretty much back to normal yesterday. I think she needed a lot of rest and just to keep her mom off of her mind. I'll leave it at that, this is getting lengthy and I don't need to be writing any novels about it at present. Later...

KITTIE

Went to a concert last night with Miranda and her friend Kim. It was a small venue that I haven't been to in almost seventeen years but it looked exactly the same as it always does. The two main bands we went to see were KITTIE and OTEP. There was another band CRISIS that was on the bill as well as a local band who was forgettable. OTEP was really good, a bit on the pretentious side, but still good. KITTIE just all out fucking rocked! They plaid mainly songs off of their newest album. The mosh pit was out of control and I only saw two fights, one minor and the other one where about six people got thrown out. There were a lot of heavy metal chicks dressed in black, and quite a few little kids, two of which kept going into the mosh pit. I'm surprised they didn't get killed in there. It was a great show anyway!

DAY OFF

Oh, so nice to be off today! I slept 12 hours last night!!! I was pretty drawn out and tired. I'm going to be a sloth and do nothing other than pick up the house a little bit. I need to call Dennis. Haven't talked to him in a month and he's going to kill me.

TIRED

That's about all I can say! Another double shift today, I'm beat. I'm on my way to work. Help...

WHO FUCKING ROCKS?

I do, that's who fucking rocks! Okay, so I'm drunk and a bit belligerent, but I just won $50 in the second Karaoke contest I've ever entered. I've won both, but instead of a piece of shit plastic I won cash. On the 26th of Novermber is the next round and it's $500! I doubt I'll win but then again who knows. I did DETROIT ROCK CITY and CALLING DR. LOVE (I won with this song) by KISS and HIGHWAY TO HELL by AC/DC! They even applauded me when I left at the end of the night. Josie went out with me for the first time, and saw me do Karaoke for the first time. She thought she could keep up though as far as drinking goes, and is currently passed out on our bed. Rookie. I rock, it's a fact. Not being narcissistic, just keeping it real. I'm also drunk. Do I really go on and try to win that $500? I'd say fuck yeah! Sorry, off to bed. Sorry this post isn't more illustrious! DRUNK!!!!!!!!!!

SLEEP!

I just want to get some sleep! It's almost 3:00 a.m. and I have to work a double tomorrow but I can't fall asleep! Insomnia sucks.

NEWS

Arafat will be dead today or tomorrow. Call it a well educated guess. I hope your ready for a fascist society America. That is where we're headed. I'm totally disgusted, and that's an understatement! Get your fucking bullshit religion out of my life!

YOU MADE BABY JESUS CRY!

Now it's a sad day in America! The process of dumbing down America is a success and people have chosen an imperialistic leader and basically given him the opportunity to really sock it to us in the next four years. You can kiss more of your rights away, as well as more of your children's lives and your social security. When the shit hits the fan in the next four years and your down and out, don't come crying to me, take it to baby Jesus!

GO OUT AND VOTE!

And they're off......

Not that anybody here isn't going to do it, but there may by chance be that one person, that lost (not damned) soul out in the crowd, that sole wandering entity that just happend to wander across this page looking for inspiration or a cheap thrill today and had planned not to vote. Well, do it for him if any body:



BABY JESUS

Yes, do it for Baby Jesus! I don't want to see him cry, and I know you don't either! Do it, do it for JESUS!!!
