Me (Erik)

“Gambrinous with griffonage?” Gambrinous is an obscure word meaning “being full of beer.” Illegible handwriting is known as “griffonage.” My handwriting has always been horrible, and much more so when I am drunk. Neither of which has anything to do with why I blog. Actually, the alcohol might have something to do with that…. I do this because I thought I would share the wanderings on which my mind takes me. And because I feel like torturing others.

I want to thank everyone who commented on my last post. I definitely have a lot to think about on how to proceed.

I’ve not really got anything new to talk about, but thought in the sprit of Sorted I’d report about the weekend.

Halloween was a non-event, as always. It has never been a holiday that I’ve been a fan of, like ALL holidays. (I know, revoke my gay card!) I worked at the tattoo shop that night then went over to my Buddy’s for a drink and went home. Exciting.

Saturday night some friends invited me to see a band I had never heard before—Bonepony. Incredible. They’ve been around for a long time, but have never been in the spotlight that I could find. I’d have a hard time narrowing down their sound, but it’s a mix of rock, country, bluegrass and folk. I had a great time and ended up buying some of their CDs—probably one of the better music purchases I’ve made in a long time. Go find them on iTunes or in another venue and give them a listen. And a big thank you to Goose and Leah for inviting me to see them.

I’ve been ill since Sunday. Feels like the flu, but seems to have passed rather quickly. I’m feeling somewhat better at the moment. Not sure what it was, but it was rather unpleasant. Hopefully I’ll sleep through the night tonight and be able to go to work tomorrow.

Let’s hope this week doesn’t leave me feeling like this:

Actually, I’d like to feel like this every now and then.

Until next time…
Erik
