Just got off work and now just hanging out in the hotel room. Homelessness sucks but it does keep you on your toes. Everybody I know is asleep or just not interested in hanging out. Can't really blame them, the only thing to do this time of the morning is hang out at Denny's. Not really hungry and I don't want to sit around drinking mediocre coffee. So I wind up here in the room with my laptop and ipod for company. Sanctuary by Korn is currently playing, slightly ironic.
I've been hanging out at my mom's place while they've been out of town but they're all in town for my step-dads' fathers birthday. He turns 90. That's quite an accomplishment. I was invited but I have other plans. Besides, it's not like he remembers me anyway. A bunch of other relatives that I haven't seen for a while are all coming in. Basically it's all hands on deck for the whole famn damily. How many times would I get to tell my story about what I've been up to lately? "I separated from my girlfriend of two years, am now homeless and I'm working as a bouncer in an Irish pub. It's only part time but it's the first work I've had since August so I can't really complain. How about you, whens the last time we saw each other?" Yeah, good times.
I turn 43 next week and the only person to acknowledge anything is my boss who gave me the day off. I've never really been one to make a big deal out of another trip around the sun but when I look at the benefits of turning 90...ah, fuck it, no use in wanting what I'll never have. By the time I'm 90 those folks will be long gone and I'll have lost contact with the living ones. That's just the way of the world. It's times like these that make me realize I'll die broke and alone.
I think my neighbors might be getting it on. It's either that or somethings wrong with the pipes in the wall. They have a very strange rhythm if they are making the beast with two backs. Maybe it's some kind of Tantric thing. I guess it doesn' really matter, two (maybe three) consenting adults have found each other and that's difficult enough in this crazy little thing called life.
Have to go to bed at some point, the derby home opener is today and I gotta get some sleep for that. I also want to wake up in time for a breakfast menu somewhere. I'm a huge fan of the breakfast food. Right now I can't think of anything sexier that a woman could say than "Would you like some breakfast?". Kind of gets the juices flowing just thinking about it. Better stop before I awaken more than one appetite with no way to satisfy either. Suppose it's time to stare at the ceiling for a little while and try to drift off.
