working at barriques. with quinn. collecting up some dishes to wash. tracy and jill, who worked before us, did as much of the closing duties as is humanly possible. there was a barriques social at the melting pot starting at 8:15, and they wanted to ensure quinn and me being able to make it. they were successful; i arrived at 8:22.

'but where are those good old fashoined values...'

watching tv with the roommates. nick on the floor, ryan and erin on the couch. trying to watch 'family guy', but it cut away to an inappropriately long clip of a ridiculous old country music performance. typical 'FG' lately. i'm not sure if it ever ended. perhaps you know what episode i'm referring to and can let me know if it ever ended. because we changed the channel.

i left the ladies in la crosse saturday morning to make it back for the 1-8 shift at barriques. i missed the 'talking heads' (tribute band). but, it's alright cuz last time i went to lax to see them, i didn't even see them anyways. so, it all worked out. cleaning off the panini (how do you spell that?) grill. using some soda water to soak the grill, and then scrape it off a few minutes later. better than the show, really.

really.

'how come i end up where i started...'

marissa and nina joined alli and i in lax. we spent the afternoon on the patio (sidewalk) at jules. just like we had never left, the familiar faces paraded by; sometimes to join for a bit, sometimes to just be a reminder of the memories lax holds. by the time we got around to unloading the car, we had already enjoyed two martinis at starlight happy hour, and visited nina and my old place of employment - erberts & gerberts. getting ready to settle in front of 'twilight' at alli and dave's with some beers c/o aaron rasch.

thursday 04.02.09

just finishing my drive madison to la crosse. headed into my college town to see alli for her bday. i made it in alright time. enough for alli and i to down a pitcher of strawberry margarita (blended) and some food. she had her senior show photo shoot 9-11pm on campus. people came from all walks of lax with crap they're not sure why they own to have their photo taken for the 'materialism' themed shoot. it's rare you see so many sunglasses, shoes, necklaces, and tights in one spot.

wednesday 04.01.09

just finished glazing some pots leftover from my last pottery session. there were some already glazed and fired cups, vases, and shot glasses ready to come home with me. sitting shotgun in DAS AUTO. you may recognize the biggest one as my 'coffee mug turned pencil holder'. it did indeed make it through from beginning to end and now serves its intended purpose in my house.

'þú hatta fjúka lætur í loft...'

drinking beers with ben at his place. talking about 'sigar ros' and their impromptu concerts in iceland. how neat would it be to stumble across a sigur ros concert? just them hanging out in the mountains, on a stage, playing some tunes. that raises the question, though, if they're as big in iceland as they are in the states. we never came to a conclusion on whether or not finding a sigar ros concert in iceland would be comparable to finding a nickleback (shudder) concert in the states. i think the conversation was cut short when i started vomiting about nickleback.
