Well here we go…

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

I have been meaning to write something up about the last couple of weeks in my new home.  The move went well, seemed like it was never going to happen but then finally the day came.  Had a nice going away party over at Chads, had a few drinks, and then a few more.  I will hopefully post the pictures on my flickr when I decide to stop being lazy.  The morning after the party we packed up and did the final run through of the place.  Then we hit the road, a few hours later than I had planned but whatever.  After getting into Vegas we unloaded the truck and then I unloaded the rest of my car.  I have now realized that I have a few too many clothes…  I should downgrade. 
Other than the move I have just been hanging out, enjoying this like a mini vacation.  I am liking Vegas more and more everyday, I mean there is a Jimmy Johns and a BW3’s nearby what more can you ask for? I have also discovered a love for Disc Golfing, kind of wish I had picked up on it sooner… but better now then never I guess.  I would be lying if I said I didn’t miss the ocean, but its only a few hours away.  I am still looking for a dive bar near by, one that is less about the video poker and more about the cheap drinks and good atmosphere.
The only downfall I have found thus far with this place is the fact that you can drink 24/7 … That could end up being a bad thing.  On the job front, well thats another story.  I had an interview the 2nd week I was here, but still have not gotten the job.  Its somewhat depressing when I start to look at bills and rent and know that I dont have the funds… But ohh well I figure everything else fell into place with moving here so maybe a job will land on my lap soon enough. 

Scotch and Diet

Saturday, November 17th, 2007

So Wednesday night I went out to the Arsenal and made it there for happy hour… well I was less than happy with the drink that was served.  Knowing that asking for Jack and Diet would cost me more since it is not clearly a part of the “Well” selection, so I asked for a Whiskey Diet…. I guess the waitress is not much of a drinker or a listener, as she brought me a Scotch and Diet.  I was wondering while drinking it why it tasted so horrible, after getting the tab I noticed it said Scotch.  So anyways never order a Scotch and Diet as it tastes pretty horrible.

Here we go…

So I thought I would give another post much like the one I wrote a long while back about the Detroit Trip. After work Friday, Darin and I went back to my place and predrank some of Jakes Vodka. Attempted to head to Fathers office in Santa Monica…. The line was too long so we went to Q’s. Ended up meeting some people there, Got really wasted there and met up with this girl I went to High school with. She ended up being just a cool as I remember her, and then some. Ended up conversing with Clark Kents brother, I still dont think he recalls who we were. Closed out the bar, went and grabbed more beer and we all drank at my place until like 6am. Woke up at like 10am and went to get some food, then made our way to a bar and I drank a couple of beers at like noon while schooling people at Darts. After that went to Paradise cove near Malibu and drank a lot more and ate way too too much deep fried calamari … Went back to the girls brothers place and helped with polishing off a bottle of wine. Then ended up at this bar in Santa Monica. Drank until close. Woke up in the morning not knowing where my car was and being super sore from sleeping two deep on a couch and later migrating to a tiled floor. Found my car on 11th st, had to walk all the way from 4th… drove home and ended up cracking a few beers open at 10am on Sunday … now I am at work.

1hr to go

And I am really tired.  I almost want to make some coffee… but then I will be up forever, unless I start drinking when I get home …. hmm ideas.  Anyways this is a temp theme until I get around to creating a new one myself.

Lack of Drinking

Monday, April 30th, 2007

So I have been in the process of looking for places to drink and have a good time at.  Looking online you think you would come across a site that provides a listing like that… and well there is.  The site call City Search, but its pretty biased and well just not that good.  You also have sites like Yelp.com, yet again it still lacks the whole focus on entertainment.  So I have been thinking what would need to be in place for a site to have it all, based around drinking that is.  What do you think it would need to be your one site stop that would let you know about drinks and places to kick it?

No Upgrade yet

So yeah as you can see I didn’t get around to updating Wordpress or creating a new theme.  I planned on taking care of that sat.  But after a few drinks at the clippers game during the afternoon I came home for a nap…. and didn’t wake up till it was too late.  I spent the rest of the night on good old Craigslist searching for a new apartment in the LA area. And seeing if there was any cool free stuff I could go pick up on Sunday.  Needless to say I didn’t acquire any free stuff.  Maybe next time.
