Yes today is my birthday,  I normally take a vacation day, but since it fell on a wednesday, I felt it wasn't worth it, so I went to work. Of course I had alot of shit to do, and stayed late. I didn't get to enjoy my day, but that's what the weekend is for.  My sister did manage to make me birthday Wolf cupcakes, wish I took pics, but I ated them.

I've heard stories of guys using magic tricks to pick up girls, but tonight I actually got to witness it being done to this girl I know and her best friend from high school.

Tonight I went with a friend of mine to a bar that happened to be having a bartender competition and these 2 girls were there. Suddenly in the middle of a conversation with them, this guy butts in and whips out  a deck of cards. Then... positions himself  in front of me to them. Meanwhile I am amazed this is actually happening, so I let it go on and watch from a short distance. I'm kinda drunk right now, and I am pointing out whats going on to other people I know who are there. It's not only one guy doing it, but 3, and not only did they have a deck of cards, but they pulled out a piece of string and did the 2 piece into one piece trick! I was laughing at how sad this appeared to me. Now I'm getting a little loud and started busting balls about how douchey this shit was and also how gay they were, cause all 3 were practically wearing the same collared Hollister shirts. Now I don't wanna be a cock blocker, but if you pull this on someone I know, I'm gonna say something. So of course one shoots me a look, and I tell him if he wants to start a fight he's gonna need help. Maybe he could pull a few more friends out of his Fedora hat. What a bunch of Jerk-offs! 

Now to you ladies... does this shit work?

**Edit**

I'm sorry, I forgot to add that it didn't work... They were amused, but ended up walking away to drink with us.

As for me... if a girl comes up to me at a bar and does magic... she's in, and at the very least deserves oral.

Know what... forget the magic.

I'm just sayin.

So last night... The Masters Of Metal tour. Almost 4 hours of Motorhead, Heaven and Hell, and Judas Priest. It was amazing, I love heavy metal crowds, and Rob Halford's costume changes were fantastic. Hellbent for leather indeed. 

Then on Sept. 20, Motorhead and The Misfits at Roseland in NYC.

Earlier this week I lost a really good, and reliable friend. This is selfish for me to say, but I was not ready to let go. Unfortunately it's time was coming, and I knew it.

That friend was my Toyota Tacoma pick up truck. It was my first car which my dad bought and surprised me with. It was used, small, and I had to learn how to drive stick, but it was awesome.

It travelled from Jersey to Mass., the Carolinas, DC, Virginia, NYC, Long Island, Philly, and parts unknown. Thru all types of rain and snow, which wasn't easy, cause it was a 2wheel drive(rear), 4cylinders, and no weight in the back, which meant I was fish tailin like a motherfucker, and icy hills were a challenge...  It never failed me.  

Now... 10 years and 193,000 miles later... it's heart gave out on my way to work monday. The engine began to sputter, then overheat. I managed to let it cool and drive it to my uncle's auto garage. A piston head in the engine blew out. Bottom line, I could pay $3000 to re-build the engine, or buy a new car. I was gonna pay, and the new engine would have 0 miles, but the rest of the truck would still be almost 200,000miles, and only a matter of time before something else went.

I know this may sound silly, or a typical "guy thing", but the truck did mean alot, and since my father passed away a few years ago, it meant more. I just didn't realize it till now.  I'm not shedding tears, but i am sad to see it go, but it couldn't last forever.  

So now... I say goodbye, and Thank You... for everything!
