Post a bit Late

So I know that this is a bit late but nothing happened next week, and i decided to wait because I knew that Oktoberfest was coming up. Oh Oktoberfest how La Crosse loves you. Well my friday began with me going to class and you could almost feel the anticipation in the air. Then i went to work at my game store and the electricity in the air was unreal. I sat at my computer dealing with my internet customers, hearing the screams of glee as the groups of people were walking by the store to the fest grounds. Well that boring day finally came to a close and this is where my story begins.

One might be thinking that I would go after work downtown to get my drink, but I would have to say oh but nay. I was walking my happy ass down to the bar to work. My night started around seven. The bar wasn't to packed yet and I was okay with that it gave me time to get the bar stocked with everything that we would need to start the night. Every thing was going pretty good having an alright time. Around ten the bar started to get pretty busy and I had to begin actually working. The process of me lugging cases of beer through a huge crowd had just begun. After eight hours of up and down stairs carrying cases of beer had really taken its toll on my bad knee. After work i went home and passed out for the next day.

Day two opens around eleven o'clock to the sun burning holes in my eyelids. I got up and stumbled my groggy self to bathroom. I had a whole day planned and the first stop on my trip was my buddies place to have a couple beers and hang out. About an hour into hanging out with my buddies I got a call that the bar was super packed and i needed to go in. The time was about four and I knew that i was going to have to work all night till bar time. The bar was packed most of the night and I couldn't get a break. Up and down, Up and down. I probably went up and down those stairs at least two hundred times. By the end of the night I could hardly walk and I went home and fell asleep so fast it was unreal.

So that was my fun Oktoberfest weekend. But its not all that bad I made out pretty decent in tips and my birthday was coming up. Those two night were a real solid time and I will detail them in my next post.

Can't sleep

So I spent the greater part of the day trying to figure out what i was going to write here. I went through the events of the week, what was in the news and all that other stuff that you can normally write a page and a half about. Nothing seemed to come to mind. So as I lay there in my bed staring at the ceiling I looked at the clock and realized it was almost four in the morning. I figured what better to write about than the pointless dribble that comes out of a over tired persons mind, the senseless babble that not even the best of people can make sense out of. So you may be asking yourself what exactly is this blog entry about, well to tell you the truth I have no idea because my mind is so shot it can't even make sense of what its thinking.

I've been putting up with this not sleeping thing for some time now and sometimes when your this tired the stuff that comes out of you is great. Other times its literary garbage that you can't even make a coherent sentence out of (i hope for the sake of my grade its the first of the two). I've tried everything from sleeping pills to meditation nothing seems to work. When I try the pills yes they knock me out but I feel no more rested than when i don't sleep, and when i try the "meditation" I might as well just lay down and pretend I'm sleeping to give off the effect.

I don't know what causes me to not sleep, be it stress or just the fact that my mind never shuts up, I have no idea. Either way it doesn't matter because life goes on and i need to keep trying to make the grade, that why we are all here. Anyway in closing I am sorry for this mindless rant and I do hope my later blogs are better than this.


Good night

Idiots in a Bar

Could someone please tell me why there are so many idiots that go downtown to the bars? I work downtown at a bar as a bouncer and I get to deal with these morons every weekend. How hard is it to go downtown, drink, have a good time and not become a complete belligerent dumb ass. Pardon my french but it amazes me that people go out and do this every weekend.

When I go downtown I drink, and I drink a lot, but i do not turn into a piece of drunken mush that i see week in week out. Yeah I might be running around hoopin' and hollerin' but I'm stumbling and causing to much of a ruckus. How hard is that? Now don't get me wrong I have become a drunken mess on a couple of occasions and I knew that it was my time to go home, but every weekend I get to deal with college kids who think that they can just keep on truckin' and end up falling all over the place so that I have to kick them out. To make matters worse when I do kick them out they feel as if they can barter thier way back into the bar. "C'mon man I'm not that drunk;" "Dude really? You such an asshole" are the typical reactions to doing my job. Sometimes it does end up in a fight because the alcohol is worth that ticket your going to get. Really? Is that what college students have become? A drunken group mob that doesn't know when enough is enough? Its quite sad.

Now I'm not saying that everyone should quit drinking because I drink and yes I think it is fun. I think we should all just realize that living you days hungover is not a good thing, or at least when you go out to party realize enough is enough.
