Cool night air and all, Mmmmm, Love it!!

EDIT: Matter of fact, I'll be back in a few mins. Goin outside for a few......

I did see The constellations, Orion, and the Little Dipper very clearly!
Also I think I saw Scorpio. I know it's very big, so I think I saw it.

Sorry I took off on you last night/early morning, Mark was watching a good alien movie in the other room and I had to see it. Then I went to bed.

Good day sir!

I have unfortunate news about Friday nights exploits. I went to celebrate a friends 40th Birthday, and hence was drinking heavily for the entire evening. Apparently, when the gathered throng repaired to the abode of another good friend of mine, I sat down entirely normally, started working through some shapes on my buddies bass guitar, and then, all of a sudden, I passed the bass off to another reveler, and made a bee line for the toilet.

For more than two hours, I was allegedly wrapped around the toilet bowl, occasionally chundering into it (some how managing not to get the ejected material all over the bathroom. Occasionally, my friends would come along and knock on the door to ensure that I was still capable of conscious response, and was not drowning in an ever growing puddle of stomach contents.

After a time, the sound of my violent regurgitation ceased, and when I had not returned to the living room, a delegation of two of the party goers (one of them a resident of the address at which this galling event played out, and the other the actual "birthday boy") was sent from the living room to ascertain my status, and to ensure that life signs were present. I am told that they found me, sat upon the toilet, trousers around my ankles as if I had been using the toilet in the traditional fashion, and fast asleep.

The lady of the house was actually the one who entered the bathroom first (since in my rush to get face to toilet bowl, I had not locked the door), and promptly left again, which allowed space for the individual whose birthday we were celebrating on the night in question, to enter the bathroom, whereupon he immediately took a photograph of the repellent scene within. So the tale goes, I was impossible to rouse from my slumber, probably exhausted by the hours of gut wrenching muscular spasms, and so they left me to it. The party wound up, folk went to bed or passed out on couches.

I knew nothing of this until I received a phone call from another friend of mine well after leaving the premises in question, just after nine this morning. I had awoken on the couch, in the living room, thinking nothing what so ever was untoward, aside from the fact that I was late for work. I hurried back to Shoeburyness quite utterly hung over, and having begun my day at work, received the phone call from my friend, alerting me to my utter uselessness, and describing the situation.

I am disgusted with myself. Absolutely disgusted. I also received a call from the residents of the household which I had so disrupted by way of my drunkenness. They both were very understanding of my plight, and had just called to congratulate me on being so tidy during the violent ejection of the contents of my stomach. Despite their understanding, I still feel very badly about the whole affair. That is NOT the way a gentleman comports himself!

I certainly will not be getting into the habit of being THAT drunk!

True Bud Hey! I know of your exploits as I have been there before as well! Not a fun Gig for sure. But do not be too disgusted with yourself My Friend. These things happen to the best of Us!!! I am Sorry however that You had to spend so much time with the Porcelain Goddess. I don't think my 'events' lasted as long as Yours, but I have blacked out a lot over the years. I know it makes us feel like losers, but even the ones who may give us a hard time about it, will endure the same events in their lifetime, at one point or another!
So Do Not Worry about Your recent drunken adventure True. We all get there sooner or later......

My recent Bad Night was Thursday/Friday morning. Parked very close to our residence, CC, My Son and I were arguing over some trivial matter and we pulled over in the van and got out. Cc got out in an unfashionable way and is recovering from the occurring injuries she received. She will be fine soon. I have been helping her get around . Bad Knee injury that required Stitches, and right arm in a temporary cast. Wrist fracture.
Our ravings drew the cops. Me and My Boy spent the night where most people do not want to go. Were released in the morning.CC spent the night in the hospital with an ass for a doctor to attend Her. He was very rude and obnoxiously idiotic, She told Me. Poor Woman...... Van was impounded, and is going to cost me my rent, and part of other bills, and I will have No rent this month, so we don't know what will happen about that. The other bills will be ok to sit for a month......
So True, That's My Comparison to a Bad Night Brother!!!

a reply to: SyxPak

Holy consequences Batman!

That night sounds like very little fun indeed

Oh Christ, my neck is aching! I was about to say I think I must have slept with my head at an odd angle, and then I remembered where I slept!

I think I am going to go off and try and get some untroubled sleep, or at least find a comfortable place to put my head. Pass on my greetings to ccbears, I will see you and the rest of the Shed tomorrow!

a reply to: TrueBrit

Ok True, You take Care Bud! See Ya on the flip side! Later, Syx.

OMG True, you cracked me up! Not that it was funny, but, well...it was funny!
Reminds me of many years ago where I missed an entire concert and my friend had to keep checking on me in the ladies room. LOL These days I have two drinks and that's it, if I drink at all.

Good Lord Syx, sounds like you, your son and CC had a bad day Thursday! Is CC feeling much better?

a reply to: Night Star

Night Star, if the only positive thing that comes out of that whole scenario, is that someone got a laugh out of it, then that is a plus, a bonus, a boon from the creator. My attitude to this is, as long as someone enjoys themselves out of it, then it balances out how much I do NOT enjoy having my dignity erased while in a state of alcoholic amnesia

The universe is at parity!

a reply to: TrueBrit

Oh we laugh like hell now, though I didn't find it all funny when it was happening. LOL

Happy Sunday Everyone!

a reply to: Night Star

Good Morning Night! Happy SunDay to You as Well!! Ummm, No, CC isn't doin real well right now. Her knee is worse than the fractured wrist! Hard to walk. I help her , but still hurts her. They gave her nothing for pain meds at the hospital. I'm out of em so.......She was supposed to go see some other doc the day after the incident, but they towed our van and I dont have the money to get it out yet. It will be until Friday that we have no ride. Our daughter usually helps with rides when we need em, but shes all upset about all this and wont help. Busses don't run in t his area. We would have to walk a couple miles to catch one. No way can she make that!! I tell ya My/Our life sucks Night! I am glad to have people that do care, here in this place. Keeps me from suckin a tail pipe, if ya catch the slang......

Thank You for the Smiles already as I have just wokin up and saw your comment above "Oh we laugh like hell now, though I didn't find it all funny when it was happening. LOL "

It gave me a Smile and a little laugh! Syx.


Good Morning EveryOne Else!!!

a reply to: Night Star

Yeah, Happy Sunday!!! - I liked today a heck of a lot later than yesterday.

Saturday was another one of those "I went into a rainbow of emotions" days. Basic rundown is that a friend casually admitted she had a crush on me in the morning - so I naturally did what usually comes next, and offered a date. She then immediately proceeds to tell me she was going on a blind date. Seriously??? I think I would have been better off claiming "ignorance is bliss" on the crush part.

At least today was decent - Got to leave the real-world for a bit playing in a concert, and showing off my incredible IPhone-Camera skills for a couple people, not to mention getting free cider & donuts afterward.

a reply to: fossilera

Apparently, I am in your secret club. The "No luck in love Club."

Meh...I can do without it based upon past experiences.

I'm just content to be happily bitter.

a reply to: fossilera

Dude,

The sound of your love life seems to be one of an out of tune piano, being dropped down an uneven staircase. I am sorry that your experience thus far has been so tiresomely similar to my own in that respect.

Hey guys and gals!!!!

Just a couple of random pictures from this past weekend.

Heading west along the Ohio River Subdivision towards Parkersburg, WV. CSX coal train T826 is seen along the street running trackage as it rolls right through the middle of Second Street in St. Marys, WV. This is one of few places east of the Mississippi River, and the only place in West Virginia, where a busy rail line runs right through the middle of town.



Standing at the former site of Fort Boreman on top of the hill overlooking the city. Looking down on the City of Parkersburg, WV on a cool, fall Saturday night at Fort Boreman Park. All is quiet in the city tonight as a tow of barges make their way along the Ohio River and a train arrives into town after making a run up from Huntington.
