1) ctrl-enter is my favorite keyboard shortcut

2) an effigy of george bush was carted around town last night... it was an ad for www.pantsonfire.com "dont get burned again" this is yet another sign that the 2004 political circus has gotten way out of control... the repubs never carted effigys of clinton around... this means we are finally stooping lower (by us i mean liberal- tree- hugging- sensitive -progressive people everywhere)

3)pacifica is a tasty brand of mexican cervesa.

4) this week was weirder than the last... better but more weird.

5) frank zappa's biography is hilarious READ IT. what a crazy bastard.... after reading it i felt like a peice of americana I had been missing was filled in.

6) I was wondering how many times GG Allin has been arrested or sued. The guy must be fucked at this point. Too bad. He could have ruined more american minds. Further hastening the apocalypse.

recycling day mittvoch

skipped work today- awoke at 10 AM to a terrible hangover and a portland city trashbag full of puke on my bedroom floor
watched simpsons from 11-12
called the boss to break him the bullshit story of why I wasn't at work. He was very cordial about the whole ordeal. He didn't seem to mind. I suppose he is used to it though. Every few weeks I seem to need a midweek sick day/beach day.
discovered I had forgotten where I parked my car the previous night because of a severe whisky induced memory lapse
sunbathed, swam, and frolicked at Pine Point Beach until 4 PM
indulged in the gastronomic delights from Anthonys Italian Ristorante. I ate Chicken Tetrazini and pasta salad. The tetrazini was absolutely BLAH however, it was quite filling and the pasta salad was very good.
continued searching for car with Rebecca and Shamra. Discovered my car had not been towed or stolen (6PM)
Went to Cliff's for a few minutes, saw Shupa and B-Town
Continued search for car
Gave up searching for car for the moment and decided to move on to plan B------ which went something like: Making phone calls to every tow place in town and checking every street.
2 minutes later
Rebecca hollers from her car window :FOUND YOUR CAR:
I still felt shitty even after I found the car, i was quite tired and feeling the after effects of the sun and the hangover.
Listened to a new song B-town and Sydney Bourke were working on. very retro sounding female vocal driven pop electronica. Not half bad actually.
Ate leftover Chicken Larb Gai from the Vientianne Thai restaurant
purchased a 22 ounce Heineken from sketchy mobil on Park Ave and bought B-town a pack of Camel Wide Lights. I know what you're thinking... Camel Wides? The choice of suicidal types everywhere.
8:30 PM... rewrote the details of the day... edit 2 was better. The day got way better than when I had started writing it at 12:30. Sometimes you have to let a day mature before you start blogging it. Things can get better in a day.
