For the 2nd night in a row, I was awoken by loud ass storms. It
storming again. I think this is a new late night trend. It took me at
least an hour to fall back to sleep. It sucked!Got to work. Danel was very quiet for some reason. Usually, she is very
peppy and excited to see me. Her desk was completely clean, which was
weird to see because she has a ton of shit on it. I cleaned my desk and
got very sad about the whole impending closing. I’m really gonna miss
this place, the money, and the people. Among other things.
I…………..it just really sucks. Anywho, Danel and I had to put a
recording on her phone……….its classic, of a call taker arguing
with a drunken member. I will put it on my computer someday and people
can hear it. We also had free pizza today. Damn, that shit was so
good…………….I love their pepperoni. I don’t know what they do
to it to make it so tasty. Maybe they marinate it. Or sneeze on it.
Roll it around on the floor……….whatever it is, its good.
After a while, I started playing speed and cards and shit with John and
Cara. I got my ass kicked, again. Oh well, only 2 1/2 more days of ass
kickings.
Mark had mentioned going to a bar to see a friend of his sing and play.
Mark gave me directions to the bar, which was in Lemont and called
“Stonecutters”. We both thought of the episode of the Simpsons with the
Stonecutters. After I hung up the phone, I tore off another day of my
Simpsons Triva Calender, and there was a question about the Stonecuters
episode……….how ironic.
I left work and drove to Lemont. It was actually easy to find. The guy
playing was older, like 51! He played mostly classic rock and blues. He
had a decent voice and was a very good guitar player. We had a good
time, but it wasn’t like when we used to watch Dae play. This guy
didn’t take requests, and he played an electric guitar. He looked a
little like Pete Townshend from the Who. We stood until about midnight,
when I left and came home. 94.7, the Zone is playing 24 hours of
Metallica!!! KICK ASS!!!
