gr34 weekend

[ audio selection | soundgarden – the day i tried to live ]

you dont suppose im coming down with something, do you? my whole body feels a little achey. not so much in the overworked sense, but more in the old and tired way…eek. hopefully its just the weather.

it was rockin’ outside friday afternoon, and none of us at work could really stand to be indoors. so the crew grabbed two grimaldi’s pizzas and headed to the dumbo waterside for lunch. i was a bad boy and scarfed down four slices…bad bad bad. but damnit was the pizza excellent. after work, we grabbed a few drinks at superfine, and then i headed off to meet marisol and jess for din at oh! taisho. mentai chazuke, okonomiyaki, and…a donburi was it? it was all good. we headed down to verlaine after din to meet up with anna and sean and made the most of the happy hour drinks. and when i say “made the most of it“, i mean that i spilled drink after drink on jess and got her a new one each time. yea, that was super.

GR34
after liquoring up enough, we migrated over to the gr34 party at white rabbit. the party was pretty coo, tho the venue was smaller than the past couple gr parties held at luke+leroy. and even tho white rabbit was pretty swishy, i think im gonna miss the airline stylings of idlewild. betty joined in later…and as we were chilling outside, dj girl saw me and waved hi. i introduced betty and tried to chat, but that went nowhere. “well she wasnt very nice.” “yea, thats why i still havent gotten my mix cd…

MINEOLA
satty afternoon was sort of a client meeting out in long island. buns photography partner wanted me to take a look at their website, so i headed out to mineola along the lirr to talk with them. after talking shop for an hour or so and getting a yum lunch out of it, bun drove me back to the train station, except she didnt really know where it was. after driving around in circles (literally) for a while, we decided to hang at a mall that we passed by. we mallratted around, ate wendys, and then hopped back into her car and headed in the general direction of “west”…eventually dropping me off at a train station in queens. whew. by the time i got back to my apartment, i was feeling poo’d out, and missed a bday house party i was supposed to go to when i passed out on my bed by 11. goddamnit.

sunday was a bore, btw.
