To know the future, return to the past..

Finally! the Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince teaser!!

Song of the moment

Well it kind of hurts when the kind of words you write

Kind of turn themselves into knives

And don't mind my nerve you can call it fiction

'Cause I like being submerged in your contradictions dear

'Cause here we are, here we are

Vegasssssssssssssssssssss

After taking a much needed day off and going to Vegas for the weekend, I feel like I need another day off.

On Friday, I spent way too much money at the Primm outlets, but that's ok cuz I won all the money I spent during a ridiculous streak of blackjacks and awesome Pai Gow hands. Then went to the Mix lounge over at Mandalay. I have decided that I am against paying for a cover to go to a place that is basically just a bar. We're already paying an arm and a leg for drinks...is it really necessary to gouge us just to get in to the damn place?

Saturday...lost almost everything I had won the day before in black jack and texas hold em. And then spent almost $100 on dinner. But that's ok because that was the best rib eye steak ever. Then went clubbing at the Bank at Bellagio. Surprisingly easy to get in and FREE! Then paid another $25 for the ghost bar.

Sunday...went home exhausted. I got probably a total of 6 hours of solid sleep the whole weekend. And now I am dragging at work even though I went to bed early. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.

For you, a thousand times over

So, I finished reading The Kite Runner today. That makes 5 books since I've started taking the metro! woohoo go me! I didn't know if the The Kite Runner would be my cup of tea. I tend to like fantasy books or stuff that's high in suspense, but I was looking for stuff to read and people kept recommending it to me, so I figured why the hell not. Man, am I glad I read it. It's a terrific book although highly depressing in certain parts. Although it wasn't action packed or anything, it still kept my attention which is hard to do since I've never been much of a reader. But anyway, if you haven't read it, I highly recommend it. The next book on my shelf is The Road by Cormac McCarthy.

It takes my pain away!!

This weekend I went to see Jimmy Eat World at the Avalon. I've been waiting all summer for this concert and it was awesome. There's nothing like watching them perform Pain live. And the Avalon is a nice venue.


And then on Sunday went to watch the Dark Knight. I think i would've enjoyed it more had i not only gotten 5 hours of sleep the night before. It was a good movie, but too long to hold my attention in sucha sleepy state. Although I did not fall asleep, i was dozing off at points. I might have to watch it again.

Feels like burning!

Weekends are never long enough. I normally like to spend my weekend just relaxing, but I didn't get to do much of that, but that's ok.

Friday night, I met up with Mr. Farouk, my college roommate. It's been at least three years since I've seen that guy so it was nice to catch up. If you're reading this Farouk, i WILL visit you in DC before the year ends.

Saturday was actually a pretty chill day. At night went with Scuz and Brian to the Arboretum and watched the Calphil perform Andrew Lloyd Webber and Puccini songs. Would've been a great concert if it weren't for the sudden thunderstorm.

Sunday, I woke up ass early to go kayaking in Malibu. It was really fun and really exhausting and I got massively sun burned on my legs. Now I hurt. Afterwards, went to see Hellboy 2, which....isn't really good. I wasn't really a fan of the first one, but the previews made the 2nd one look much better than it really was. Damn the marketing geniuses. It could've been that i was just too tired to care about what was happening in the movie. But yea...i wasn't impressed.

Now it's back to Monday and work blows.
