Possible Rain On Friday

so yesterday, right before the end of work, we each received an invitation to the company's annual Christmas banquet. i pondered and pondered upon it, knowing that while i would be eating free food (Todai), i would be eating alone because of the whole having-no-friends-at-work thing. i was already leaning towards not going when i finally noticed that the dinner is on December 7, the same night as the Spice Girls concert. did i somehow know, when i purchased the Spice Girls tickets, that i would be saving myself from a difficult decision 2 months later? anyway, i'm glad that i can't go. i prefer eating sushi with friends, not NOBODY.


tonight was supposed to be the Straylight Run show at the El Ray Theatre, except it got CANCELLED! i bet it's because there was an error with the free tickets deal and therefore the whole thing got kicked out the door. the SLR members have made it very clear that they're bummed about the cancelled show. howeverrrrr, i'm still going to see them tomorrow night at the Glasshouse with FRED MASCHERINO!! :D
i thought i was going to see them all twice, but i suppose i'm content with just once :)
my 2 favorite ex-guitarists of Taking Back Sunday in one night... i don't know man, that's too good.


for anyone who didn't already know this, the album "Tell All Your Friends" changed my LIFE. okay, maybe not life, but it was the gateway to the plethora of beautiful music that i love today. i'm sure everyone has a band like that in their lives, and TBS just happens to be mine. so yes, John Nolan means a lot to me. and i'm going to see him for the first time tomorrow night. i'm quite excited!
