Yes
I don't drink for the flavor. I drink the cheapest shit available because I want to be fucking destroyed. I don't care about $200 bottles of scotch with vanilla notes and shoe leather or what ever bullshit. Now I will spend money on a nicer beer now and then but my goal is to get drunk. I'm trying to scale way back on my drinking anyways. I appreciate the offer but no thanks.

I did a gig at the end of last year and I forgot to invoice the client right away so i didn't do it for a little over a month. And after sending the invoice I heard from a colleague that the production company closed or went out of business or something (and not in a shady way) and basically didn't exist anymore so i figured I wasn't going to get paid. I didn't really pursue it because I didn't have a lot of recourse and figured whats the point in trying to contact a company that doesn't exist anymore. Fast forward to today and I get home and my wife mentioned that I got a check in the mail from (client name) for the right amount of money. Pretty stoked and I got a life lesson out of it: send invoices fast.

I accidentally found out I can stack a danelectro fabtone and boss metal zone through a clean amp for a crushing distortion. I'd never think pedals that high gain would play nice together

continued the last gasp socal food tour with a stop at the kogi bbq truck tonight... holy shit. you know how sometimes you fall asleep and quickly start dreaming, and your brain accepts as established facts any number of out-of-the-ordinary variables? that's how this food felt to me, like a primal yearning from my taste buds that always knew what they wanted without ever having tasted it until now

:tup: Not sure if it's still around but I went to a death metal fest there and met a bunch of board people years back. Also saw Gwar there.

Be glad it isn't Peoria!

He basically deflected blame onto me, and I'm not happy about it, considering I had nothing to do with it. I'd been keeping an eye on openings at other opportunities for a while, but now this is just pushing me to the point where I have to actually send out resumes. My commute already sucks ass, the company is on the verge of being sold, I can see the writing on the wall already.
