So I must say I ended 2006 the same way that ruined 2006. I partied my face off for 3 days, spent entirely too much money, and can't recall a hell of a lot.
Wednesday night I went to regular old zaphods w/ amelia. Did the whole mingle mangle, drink your face off, and I guess wound up passing out at her house (again). Woke up in the morning and drove to home depot to buy some paint w/ A. Ended up lost in a St Laurent shopping mall, then finally acquired the Stardust paint I've been pining over for weeks.
Passed out early that night, missing the pizza party, to rest myself for a full day of painting.
Friday I woke up, drove to Argyle, painted all day (primer took the longest) and it looks fantastic. I took a break half way through to watch my big fat greek wedding with stephanie, and left for home later that evening.
Jorge came over after work, and we polished off a 12 of pbr, and laughed our asses off like i havent heard in forever. Putting the two of us together always creates the best nights. Amelia stopped by afterwards, and we all went to the dirty oak to polish off a pitcher. Afterwards we wound up going to my boy Pat's house to meet his boy who was in from town, and then to sunny's to play poker till the wee hours of the night. I didn't win that night, and i felt myself feeling pretty shitty, i guess. I don't know why I yearn for companionship so much, but it's impossible to stop thinking about. Last night seeing Cens and Chelsea snuggle on the couch, or when i was watching the movie elezabethtown today, it's like life is slapping me in the face.
I might try.
Saturday night....ha, saturday night I went out of my way to try and see my ex barbara on her birthday. I bought her a card and cried all day thinking about how its the first one in 6 years im not apart of. I manned up and went looking for her, because she didnt answer my calls. I ended up at babylon by myself, mingling with whoever I could. I ended up spending the night talking to natalie and brad, and i crashed at their place that night with little frankie who is quite adorable. I had a fantastic talk with natalie before i went to bed, and i think my nose bled in my sleep.
In the morning we all went out for breakfast at the lieutenants pump. It was only 4.50, and the waitress was smitten by me and brad. We sat in this dark back corner, which was weird because it was afternoon, and afterwards I enjoyed the company of Natalie and her sisters house in the glebe, watching cold case files, eating crackers, petting the 3 cats, and taking a 3 hour nap. How can you get any better than that??
Bill showed up at around 8, and we decided to kick it back to natalies house. Bill and I continued to drink, talk and sit in a dark room until new years had already passed. We high tailed it to babylon, where i had several drinks, danced a little, and continued to head across the street to jo's loft party.
It was pretty bumpin by the time i got there, and it was lovely to see so many friendly faces. I made my rounds, said hello, held some conversations, made some new friends, hid my alcohol in the microwave, told a girl she was pretty, made an ass of myself by telling amelia i liked her (WTF BRENT. BTW I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO DO ABOUT THAT SITUATION) and ended up passing out at CENS house till 6pm monday night, and watching tv with some cats till 1am. Oh and my parents yelled at my because they thought i was dead (???) and tracked me around the city.
Today, bar yelled at me because she forgot her phone charger at jo's (like its my fault) and i basically sat on the couch all day and watched movies. I think i am about to head off to my new home to see a house show, and im so excited they thought enough about me to invite, because ive been feeling like shit all day.
Can't anything be simple for once. I think i need to start smoking more pot..things seemed to work better then.
SO TILL NEXT POST. damn brent your life is bananas
