So I just got into work after another sleepless night. I only have myself to blame of course, but I think I like the night more than the day anyway.

As I open my deluxe breakfast from mcdonalds, I am greeted with fotune immediately.  No, there is not a human finger staring back at me which would guarantee a multi-million dollar settlement for yours truly, but perhaps even a better sign... they gave me TWO count them TWO hash browns this morning. Now there are few joyous things in my life at the moment, these McD hashbrowns probably occupying the 2nd and 3rd on my list.  They  did however forget my ketchups they specifically asked me if i wanted. Luckily, I have a few stashed in my desk for emergencies of this nature.

Now off to another 10 hours of looking at 16 year old girls and 13 year old boys

you know you want her

Everthing's comin' up Milhouse.

TreyQA<..timestamp> (1:42:44 PM): im calling now
lycanthropyforme<..timestamp> (1:42:52 PM): we're going there at 9 tonight
TreyQA<..timestamp> (1:43:36 PM): i just called, no more bikini girls
lycanthropyforme<..timestamp> (1:43:43 PM): WHAT?!?!?!?!
lycanthropyforme<..timestamp> (1:43:48 PM): what'd they say?!?!?!?!
TreyQA<..timestamp> (1:43:48 PM): yeah
TreyQA<..timestamp> (1:43:52 PM): stopped last week
lycanthropyforme<..timestamp> (1:44:01 PM): ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME?!?!?!
TreyQA<..timestamp> (1:45:15 PM): dude i just talked to the guy
lycanthropyforme<..timestamp> (1:45:25 PM): i'm suing

So, not that I don't trust my friend whom is usually a reputable source of  information,  I thought, "Perhaps they pizza guy was unclear as to the times the bikini clad pizza bearing godesses were in."  I took matters into my own hands and called.

Me: "Uhhh... this is the bikini pizza place right?"

Smarmy Turk: "Umm... Yeah, can i help you?"

Me: "You still have bikini waitresses?

Smarmy turk: "Oh no, they're not here tonight."

Me: "Is that a regular thing or like certain days weekends, (etc)?"

Smarmy Turk: "Actually.......they aren't going to be here anymore. We don't do that anymore."

Me:  --Click!--

So much to my dismay, my hopes and dreams for Tuesday were quashed in mere seconds by a reluctant foreigner.

Now I beg the question, were the girls fed up with being ogled by drunken pizza fans such as I and my friends, or did we just choose an off week, and they're between waitresses?

I guess it is not the illustrious job the girls signed up for?  Hooters constantly retains a staff of waitresses that must put up with the same shit? What is the difference here? Smarmy Turks?

Ughg..........maybe another day...........

L.A. Update:
So... I have realized certain things in my short time in L.A. Life changing things. Philosophical things. Boring things, exciting things.
Pro's of L.A.---
I have seen three of my favoritist bands in a short time. Bands that would never have come to New orleans. NoFx, Lagwagon, and Danzig.
The weather is always nice, except for the past few days (which rain does make me feel good- see 1st blog)
The people I have befriended out here are cool (most are NOT from L.A.)

Cons- I feel like i am wasting my life in traffic. I thought people drove bad in the rain at home, now I totally realize why there is more car-to-car shootings in L.A. than anywhere else in the world, and am glad I don't have a gun or even a bat in my car because I have NEVER had such road rage (think Samir, from "Office Space" X100)
Beer is expensive out here. At home, you'd drink PBR because it was the cheap $1 beer at the bar. In L.A. PBR is "cool", so the best you can hope for is a well shot with a PBR (a deal nonetheless)

I do miss home so much and want to go home but must remind myself that my "home" no longer exists, not in the metaphoric sense,but physically it's there, but totally unihabitable and will remain b/c we are a humble poor folk with no insurance, and FEMA is a fucking disaster in and of itself.
I could cop out and just go home and continue bartending and live with my dad in Kenner, but that's not "New Orleans" even though by LA terms it's "close".
Besides, if I do just pack up and go home, i have wasted my time here, right?
It's like dubya says, if i go home, "then the terrorists win." Right?

bum bum bum bum buuuuuuum!!!!
Current mood: numb

Ok and this set me off to write this. I was leaving work, in the parking garage, right? Press the elevator button...doors open, theres a bum in the elevator, sleeping!!! I was going to ddeal with it and not walk up 9 sets of stairs, but the stench of bummery was too much. Another co-worker of mine said he saw a bum with an ipod, now what the fuck is a bum doing with an ipod i ask you?!?!! only in LA!!
Bums really make me sorry for the state of the world today. in my optimistic view , many of them are mentally distracted and do not realize the meaninglessness of there own existence. It is the ones who are not deranged are the ones that really give me the stimulus to strive harder not just for my personal advancement, the good things in life, but to strive harder to ignore them and not ever give them anything. The ones back home (downtown at least) either tried to entertain you out of money or intimidate you out of money. Either way, they usually could smell a local from a mile away and would not bother me. from my experience in Vancouver i realize these tourist-hunting bums are very aggressive and obnoxious to the tourist.
I'm moving to a place with more draconian bumming laws. in front of the santa monica city hall there is like a hundred bums just chillin' i still haven't figured out what that was about.

I miss Broadway Joe, the noblest of drunken bums.

soo cooolldd
Current mood: indescribable

So the room i've been squatting in for the past month is a "solarium" which means it has an assload of windows. Great view of the hills and sunsets right? right. It also means that (when it was warmer) it gets ass-hot as soon as the sun rises. But not anymore, now i sleep with a jacket on and my pbr street-gang sock hat which is o so cozy, but you shouldn't have to sleep more than fully clothed.. iss aight though.. Only a few more days before i have my own room with own bathroom!!! And i regain custody of my wonderful baby boy Henry whom i miss oh so much!!

The fucking rapture must truly be upon us... Some restaraunt worker posted on craig's list that someone called them at their place of business(the restaraunt) and asked, "Are y'all gonna be open tonight, y'know... because of the rain?" What the hell kinda question is that?!?! actually they probably didn't say y'all either but... does the entire world matket stop because you might get wet going to get a meal. I don't understand?
