This morning, on my way to the bathroom, I slipped on a "mystery fluid", which led me to slide at a rapid speed along my bathroom floor, which led to my knee landing in a puddle of someone else's vomit and my arm smashing into the window and knocking the fan out of it.
It was really a startling wake up. Luckily, there was a fan in the window because otherwise I would have slammed my hand through the window pane. As it is I have some scrapes. Also lucky is my knee, which happened to be wearing jeans. Otherwise I would have a pukey knee, not just pukey jeans.
Yesterday, Guyana Punch Line played at UMD. The building the show was suppossed to be in was locked, so we just held it in front of it. Hank brought his BBQ grill so we were able to have a Memorial Day cookout! GPL, Crestfallen, Economist, and Tradition Dies Here all played and it was a good time. GPL's new material is really good. Intricate and interesting songs. After, I picked up this guy Eddie from New Orleans who was in town for the last Page 99 shows and we took GPL to Town Hall, a local bar/liquor store. Much debauchery ensued, which resulted (I assume) in the mystery fluids in my bathroom.

ed [email] said at 7:27 PM 05-27-2003: I'm sorry. It's not funny, almost killing yourself. But I laughed.... oh, how I laughed. I've almost killed myself twice in the last three weeks. Once was a trip and fall (I took my shoes off in the bathroom, which I never do, then tripped over them a few hours later in the dark) and the other was a slip and fall (slipping on a mystery fluid that turned out to be cat puke, which I identified after managing to stand back up and turn on the kitchen light - I earned a near-concussion and a split lip from that one, and the lip's almost healed now).
People falling is funny. Unless it's you. Even then, it's funny after you've determined nothing's broken.
