Everything Black is not Blue

Hi,

been a while, seems I might have blacked out for the last month and a half, but it is summer ehh? I have a cotributing editor, he never posts anything, I think I might fire him. Anyway, I had a good one the other night. I don't remeber much of it and any confirmation thus far has been, yeah you were wasted. Typical. I found myself in Columbus Ohio at the Audio Eagle Summer Showcase featuring gil mantera's party dream, beaten awake and houseguest. I think it all started with the cute bartender and reasonable drink prices. See this girl was pretty and kind of reminded me of a girl I once knew. She served great drinks, we chatted, I came to find she had the same name as the afore mentioned girl. Weird... I had a few drinks and a few rounds off the old pipe, and things got going. The bands were putting on a great show and I was drinking vodka like water. At some point during Beaten Awake's set I had the first inclination that I was drunk, but at that point there's no stopping it, and well I had to return to the bar and creep out that hottie bartender right?

anywho...

At this point I only remember shreds of what happened. I talked my friend Al's ear off for what in my mind was an hour, who knows what I said... sorry Al.

I also had one of what I think were several conversations with my friend Pat, and his girlfriend denise. wish I could remeber those tales for you but alas, I'll have to wait for them to relay the stories to me.

well I found myself in the van on the ride home, someone must have walked me there. It was a convienent place to pass out. When I awoke I foud myself at a "goasis" it was bright and I was still drunk but in my state i still realized this was my only chance for food tonight. I found the hot dog trolly, and prepared a lovely dog with ketchup and mustard, and promptly dropped it down my leg and onto the floor. hunger ravaged at my stomach so I just picked the damn thing up and put more catsup/mustard on it and added some chili to mask whatever funk I was about to eat off the floor. See the thing is I didn't even wipe the dog off man. the thought just never crossed my mind.
