Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow

CaptainResponsibility: hey
TwiceBitten: hello

CaptainResponsibility: how is everything with you; I never heard from you again after your bad afternoon last week

TwiceBitten: oh

ha

i went on a big bender

even got in a bar fight. my first one!

CaptainResponsibility: probably well deserved

NO WAY!

really?
TwiceBitten: yeah :)

CaptainResponsibility: you threw hands?

TwiceBitten: no

but he lunged at me

people grabbed him and threw him out

CaptainResponsibility: IT WAS A DUDE?

TwiceBitten: yeah

CaptainResponsibility: did you slap his mother or something?

TwiceBitten: he wouldn't stop yammering about the economy. having lost two jobs that day, i was not in the mood to hear it

(he was loudly blabbering all of this to the bar in general)

so i politely ask that he stop, saying that we're all out to have a good time and don't want to think about that stuff

so he got all riled up like, 'what do you know about the economy, you don't know shit, blah blah blah blah..."

like yelling and shit

and i kept asking him to chill and let the economy go. finally he was like, 'what do you know? WHAT DO YOU KNOW? what do yyyoooouuuuu do for a living?"

which was a pretty sensitive issue for me at the moment

and i kinda lost it, "WHAT DO I DO FOR A LIVING? I TELL GUYS LIKE YOU TO SHUT THE FUCK UP!"

fortunately people had been watching the whole thing, grabbed him, and showed him the door

CaptainResponsibility: God, that's awesome

I wish I'd been there

TwiceBitten: the funny thing is that he bartends somewhere else and now i can't go there anymore :)

unfair

CaptainResponsibility: you found that out after?

TwiceBitten: yeah

CaptainResponsibility: shitty
TwiceBitten: and then THAT bartender flagged him for the bar where it happened

i started an interbar war

CaptainResponsibility: hahahah - that's great
TwiceBitten: sorta

the guy really did need to shut the fuck up, though

so needless to say, there were a rough couple of days there, but things are better now

CaptainResponsibility: I believe it
TwiceBitten: how was the bachelor party?

CaptainResponsibility: I don't even think I'm prepared to discuss it yet

I have NEVER in my life felt as bad as I did on Monday...

it took until Thursday before I felt like I just had a really bad hangover

no voice for 3 days,

TwiceBitten: yeah, even your facebook status sounded unhealthy

CaptainResponsibility: it's was a catastrophic debacle

I'll fill you in more but I have to go get hated on/potentially fired in a staff meeting right now...

I'll be back in a hour or so;

TwiceBitten: have fun!
CaptainResponsibility is offline. Messages you send will be delivered when he comes online.
TwiceBitten: you still employed?

CaptainResponsibility: at the moment, yes

no telling what tomorrow will bring

let's just say careerbuilder and monster aren't far down my list of recently visited websites

TwiceBitten: smart man. beats my strategy of buying an ipod and bike, and signing a lease for a place i couldn't afford with my job

then again, you did just have a kid and purchase a Rolex. we might be too white for this economy.
