the day after?

as you’re reading this, i’m waking up in new orleans…

…or maybe not. i did take my notebook (have to file for the unemployment tonight) but i don’t know how UP i am at the point of the day you’re reading this or where i am. could be passed out, could be propped up by a leggy, curvy blond or a really cool gay guy…or both. could be calling in a favor since i know people in the new orleans DA’s office.

the fun of spending my juneteenth weekend in crescent city.

okay, so everything above this bold shit and everything below this bold shit was written in advance to post while i was enjoying some drunken b-day revelry in new orleans – this bold shit is being written on my actual birthday (june 19th) at (checks time) 10:04am – i’ve been up for four hours, and in that four hours i’ve had the plug pulled on the new orleans trip (for a mixture of scheduling and financial reasons) and coffee and cigars with ME canceled, so i’m essentially alone and planless on my birthday, which is pretty well par for the course for the year. i did, however, confirm everything BELOW this bold shit with harold so, yeah – at least we have THAT working for us…

but come a week from now, i say we grill something. fuck it, it’ll be fun and even though i’m jobless it just doesn’t seem like summer without it, so shane, JAB, ME, josh, la tina, Ms T, and anybody else local – hit me on the mobile (or in the comments section) and let’s do a bbq next weekend. we’ll keep it small, and i don’t know if i’ll do fajitas or something else (based on price here) but it’ll be burgers or fajitas or something. might even do it in north austin at harold’s, depending…in which case it’ll be sunday. i always liked the sunday thing, but shane always bitched about having to go to work hungover the next day – not a problem this year for him…or me, for that matter.

let me know who to expect…

see – copper is ALL smiles thinking about all of you popping by!

(okay, so she’s REALLY all smiles ’cause as you read this i’ve been away from the house for twenty-four hours, and will be for another twenty-four, and after months of joblessness she’s just happy to have my ass gone for a while…)

(yeah, so ignore that last paragraph per other bold print above)

oh, and happy b-day to our sexy globe-trotting chilean contributor, leia…and thanks for not being pissed i stole this pic of you off your facebook page!

pretty fucking hot for being thirty-something, huh? hell, who am i kidding – pretty fucking hot, regardless of age…
