Ah, 7/11. Big day big day. Not ONLY do I have work at the music store from 9:30 - 3:30, and then work at Target 4:30 - 10:00, BUT ALSO it’s free slurpee day @ 7-11! awesome! During our lunch break, my buddy and I will be sure to grab our free small slurpee, and I definitely think you all should, too.

What else is happening this Friday… Oh! The iPhone 2 is making its debut. Featuring a 3G network and GPS, this guy is going to be making quite an entrance I think… especially considering the new price cut. Never again will one be able to use the “lost” excuse when owning an iPhone for being late to something… sucks, but I think it’s worth it…

Also there are some interesting applications coming out, too for the iPhone… one of them being a mad stalkerish application which allows you to see where any one of your friends are (in the application) and what they are doing (if they input it). So for example, I’d be able to open up the program, click on a friends name, and then it’ll open up google maps, put a location on where they are and what they’re doing (ie: a dot showing a friend “Chris” sitting in Subway eating food). Fucking creepy. Marauders map anyone?

This was delayed.
sorry!

The DungeonAs with any other day at my job at the music store down town, my friend and I strive for ways to make our job moderately enjoyable… this keeps us sane.

This is why we decided to compare the every day String Bass to the human body. We believe we have created an accurate list of the parts of a Bass and their counterpart to the human body. This is what we got:

  • End pin = Legs
  • F Hole’s = Mouth… this might sound a little dirty, but look up the parts of a bass and you’ll see.
  • Soundpost = Heart
  • Fingerboard = Voice box
  • Bass bar = Spine
  • Tuning Mechanism’s = Vocal Chords
  • Scroll = Skull
  • Bridge = Ribs

So, the way we did this pretty much is compared the function of the part of the bass to the function of the part of the human body… pretty accurate… if you don’t know what all of the parts of a bass are/what they do, and you’re actually interested, you can check that out here: Parts of a String Bass.

Otherwise things have been pretty good. Tonight, I’ve realized I have issue’s finding star constellations, I don’t know where the north star is, and the big dipper really isn’t that big from my point of view. It’s actually like a foot big if I extend my hands out and measure that way. I’m almost 6 feet tall. I’m like 6 big dippers. The big dipper isn’t big at all.

And… where the fuck is the little dipper? it can’t be that little…

So straight up, this blog is meant to be an attempt at a piece of writing that would be read like you were talking to me… hopefully somehow this would be moderately entertaining to read, and to even write at that… writing’s usually fun for some, right? Maybe it’ll be for me… maybe.

Today was the last day of my summer class (in case no one knew, I’ve been taking public speaking over @ Suffolk for the past four weeks at an attempt to get credits out of the way) and I think I did pretty well, hoping for an A minus, that would be pretty sweet… especially considering I need the grades, too.

See? that entire sentence was very LJ-esque.
Fail.
No, actually, I know you don’t care. I barley care. The only significant thing that sentence carries is the fact that I finished, which to me means I can finally start making money.

money… Seriously, it’s the point when you buy lunch every day at work, and then go to put gas in your car at the end of the week when you realize you’re making shit (in regards to pay, not the actual stuff [while that happened's, too])

That wasn’t even funny. SEE? That was borderline gross… and obvious… and gross.

We’ll work on this.
