fiddler on the mountain

they are snorting us up to whistler tomorrow, for a 'team-building' work vacation.
and by they, i really mean me, as im on the committee that plans such rural exercises.
co-worker team building in free-whistler achieves major moral growth.

we are not 'buying' the staff liquor this time.
instead, 'bringing up' about 40 flats.
and by 40, i really mean 8 or so, not sure, i don't lift.

whistler is a good place for a day-drink.
im getting there early, to 'set-up' and such.
already in trouble on monday.

It was an easy purchase, made hastily on a watery Sunday morning. Tickets to see 2 of my favorite bands, play a show together, in Las Vegas, on New Year's Eve. No questioning the cost of flights, hotels, or non-punk-loving girlfriends. Hesitation never ends in glory. 'Next time' is only 7 or 8 letters different than 'Never again.' My previous 3 Vegas crusades were all relatively affordable, as Vegas is relatively affordable, if you keep an eye on the Exit and a bottle in your brain. Turns out that 'New Years in Vegas' is bloody expensive, and unfortunately most of my convincing was based on big words like 'fun' and 'clean sheets.' Fuck it, let's party. Gonna get a rad place, with a balcony. I want a balcony. High up, with a kitchen. I want a kitchen. And gonna have a little party in Vegas on New Years, and the 3 nights leading up to it. If you're in, let me know. Why the balls not? Did I mention that NOFX and LAGWAGON are playing in LAS VEGAS on NEW YEARS. As I said, it was an easy purchase.

Onward up upward, to the misty cliffs and dusty drifts.

Meg bought me a ukulele for my birthday.

I am a ukulele player.
