So, that old guy comment was dead on. I was at my GF’s sorority formal and I made an allusion to Road House. No one laughed. Well, I figured I they didn’t get the allusion. Rather than be considered obscure, I decided I would try to explain the comment. Much to my dismay, when I said the title of the movie it came from, blank stares. I start explaining the movie, who’s in it, etc… Finally one guy was like “I think I saw a clip or something from that movie when I was a kid”. Holy FUCK I’m getting old.

However, I did get my retribution. Everyone was showing up in suits, tied up and apparently choking. I roll in with my usual style, untucked but nicely pressed shirt. Well put together, just a slight bit casual. All night, all the little guys were pleading with their dates, “Please, look. He’s doin it!” As if that wasn’t enough, I had to throw in a snide “This is only for big boys” here and there.

I have found a social life again, somehow. I have been going to happy hours, softball practice (first one today), volleyball, movies, bars, music venues, even family cooking occassionally. The key here is low cost. I actually was really concerned about my financial situation till my next check, but I was able to call in a portion of a loan and get me through till then. Novel concept.

I just had a hilarious revelation. I mentioned a while back that I was working on a side project, Knotty Dayz. Well, when you search for “Knotty Dayz” (with the quotes) on google, you get my post about it, not the site itself. That in itself needs to be fixed, and will be soon. However, for consistancies’ sake, I did a search on “Musings of an Idiot” and my page wasn’t till page 2 of the results. Irony…
