So, everyday at work I listen to the radio, and I'm always relatively pleased with the music at around 9 am. At some point, I'll think to myself, "Man, this is some good music." That's about when I'm reminded that it's 'The '90's at 9." Then, I remember I'm old. I like this music because it reminds me of a time when I was free. Couple this with me not having any gigs lately, and I'm having what Rochford calls an early mid-life crisis. I don't know. Maybe, I'm just pissed that I'm working when I used to be playing Mario 64 at this time, or sleeping, or in school day dreaming about my ideal job as a hardware design engineer. Now, I know I'm either too stupid for that or I didn't properly prepare myself.
My only consulation to this newfound despair is the fact that I wrote a new funk song. It's called "Cold Burn." I still feel the funk. The funk will never let me down. Everyone need a funk. Ah, funk.
So maybe I'm Fucked up Insane Neurotic and Emotional(to quote an Aerosmith song)-but I can still funk. So funk you very much. Funk you all. And funk me, too.

THE FUNK HAS RETURNED!!! Awesome, I will have to hear it. Also don't worry about the mid-life comment, just look at my last entry and you can see you're not the only one yearning for college days past (of course I always say it's not the college we miss it's the close proximity of friends and distance from the parents while still using their money). After that last post I have been trying to think of ways to make life more enjoyable like it was in college, all I can come up with is an attempt to a quote I saw somewhere: "Instead of watching other people live their lives on TV why not live your life as if people were watching you" and try to do something interesting daily. Or at least not sit at my computer and do nothing for 4 hours a day. Also in trying to recapture the college-esque days I believe that something must definitely be done in terms of the guys. The one thing that I can come up with is a week(end) at Myrtle Beach. We would rent out a house (or if we know someone with a house that would be better), play golf daily, hang on the beach, and go out nightly. Just the guys, a week away from the womens to revert to our "immature play N64 24/7, put your head through a wall, make your own bathroom, pass out in the woods" debauchery. Of course that costs money and the women folk probably would not like us spending our own money, but hell I already bought an extra week of vacation this year!
I always try to get a spring camping trip lined up for that reason. The one we went on was fun, but we need to get the guys there. Moving you (brad)in will be fun. Everyone will definatly have to come to Charleston over the summer. "Come to coast, we'll have some laughs."
You guys name the when and the where, and I'll probably show up. I usually do... I'm a lot like Britain and Australia whenever the US wants to go to war.
If you bastards would stop geting married this wouldn't be a problem. You are committing all your cash and mine damn it. My tally for this summer (May-July) is now to 4. Toss in my birthday and grad classes and I won't be able to play. Damn this shit! Damn it all to hell! Damn damn, wha, wha, wha wha wha, wha wha.....
Wha makes a pretty good point. At the end of this summer, thanks to all you fockers getting married, I'm going to be spending a hefty chunk of my diminuitive change.
So we at least better have some damn fun!
y'all minor leaguers can STFU as you don't know hefty chunks of change until you have gone to 9 weddings in 1 year, bought an engagement ring/wedding band, a honeymoon, a house and still have 4 more weddings to go to. Just look forward to the free liquor that will be served up at the weddings! Oh and you can always appreciate waiting to get married so that all the people you invite can't use the "poor college student" excuse when buying gifts! LOL
Yeah ok. I'll shut up.
I was just thinking now Ia mgoingto haev to leave my boat in TN in my mom's basement for the summer. I have already cut out half the weekends I would have used it. Oh well, by the time I get married everyone else will haev kids and not be able to make the trip. Of course the incapcity will be more because we are all confined to wheelchairs. Nevermind, I am only supposed to live to 57, guess I don't have to worry about it. I won't be old and lonely when I die.
Is there a website that can translate Wha-speak to English. "Ia mgoingto"....I thought he was trying to speak Spanish.
Nobrainer, how many times do we have to remind you not to make of Todd's "special" condition. I mean we are lucky that he can type and not shit his pants at the same time (or maybe he can't).
I certainly can't afford the cool car that screams "I'm old an confused . . " But no one who is born with a silver spoon can. I actually think the old guys driving cools cars have wanted one since they were 18, but had to wait until they were 45 before they could afford it. That's not a mid-life crisis-that's life. You couldn't have the cool car in high school when it could have served you well by getting you laid. So you have a sweet ride to take your kids to middle school in. Sure, they think you're a poser, but they'll learn when you buy them a nice clunker in high school. I don't know. If I have a son, I may hook him up with some of Dr. Mom's cash for a sports car. 'Porsche, you don't get laid in one, but you get laid the minute you get out.'
I agree with Will on the sports car thing. I would bust a nut anytime my dad let me take their Miata out when I was in HS, and even part way through college. I never got any lovin out of it, big surprise, but I did have girls say "Hey don't you drive a red Miata?" After I had it for a month while the Berretta of love was in the shop. Nobrainer, don't make fun, you drove 4.5 hrs to listen to be ramble and play golf last weekend. Check out 106.5 The End out of Charlotte online for some good music. They play nonstop for like 1hr 45min after 10 every morning and the music has a lot of 90's rock mixed in (I just heard Dave, Live, Seven Mary Three, and some other classic 90's stuff in the past 45 minutes). They shouldbe easy to find online.
When words are spoken, they're supposed to kinda slur together. You're not supposed to type like that.
Now go change your diaper.
I listen to music online. I'll get a call from the head of IT asking why the bandwidth in our office has dropped dramaticaly as has happened to a guy here. Thanks, though.
