easily the worst day of my life.
 

offline ambsace from canaDUH. on 2005-06-03 05:12 [#01621319]

so we start off by running 2 hours late for the day (after
certain plans got shot down).

then i have to meet my ex-girlfriend and chat it up over
coffee like everything's cool for like half an hour.

then recording completely falls apart. and sounds like
buttholes.

and, finally, i come home at 5 in the morning to find that
my car isn't where i left it. it doesn't drive. so, clearly,
it has been towed. and i have no fucking clue what to do
about that. so fucked.

all this in combination with two del taco burritos, too much
beer, too many cigarettes, two cups of coffee, and what
could be ulcers or appendicitis (i have no fucking clue
what's been going on in my stomach for the last week and a
half), i'm feeling particularly shitty. shitty enough to
post a "pity me" bulletin on fucking xltronic. jesus christ.
justin ladd: redefining pathetic on wholly different planes.
hold me.

At least you didn't accidentally fall hopelessly in love
with your cousin at work today.

oh. yeah. we recorded for about nine hours. and as we were
getting ready to go, our drummer started flipping switches
and unknowingly cut power to the computer. so we lost a bit
of what we were doing. that was kinda shitty.

but i'm totally wired. can't sleep. very frustrating.

terrible. I feel for ya but at least you weren't beaten up
on a public bus by chavs in a completely unprovoked and left
with a near broken nose on a highstreet where loads of
people were were passing but none tried to help you and one
even said "serves you right for getting in a fight you
fag".

that was a real low point, two weeks ago in London, argh.

do you really expect everyone to make something out of that
incredibly incoherent piece of rambling in your first post?

i hope bill hicks comes in here and sees that you started a
sentence with 'so'.

late for what? recording? chat it up?

your car got towed and this is the worst day of your life?
good fucking grief.

got 4 viruses in a row one day and had to reformat
everything, really pissed me off.

sorry.. I was just joking around. Sounds like your day
sucked real bad, but look on the bright side: now you don't
have to spend money on gasoline and drive around polluting
stuff...

oh, and just fuck the recording a bit more and become a
successful glitch artist!

There will be better times ahead! :)

at least you have the oppurtunity to record your music,
learn by mistakes and come back stronger, without wanting to
sound patronising you could be deaf or living in a warzone
or through a famine or some shit like that.

helps to think like that sometimes when things are shitty I
find.

no thank god. I used to be in a band but then I got into
Trance music and produce my own. I lost sounds really great
material and the only decent thing I'm left with now is an
official instumental remix of Groove Coverage's single '7
years and 50 Days' which was probably the worst thing I ever
did.

since losing all my own stuff I've sort of lost the creative
input I once had though. I can't bring myself to make music
anymore. It's really sad the way my creativity just
disappeared :(

that's pretty shitty. lots of people have been having shit
days recently - not the least of whom me, on tuesday i got
fined 45 euro for riding the luas (tram) free, failed my
maths exam for sure, found out a really really cool friend
of mine from high school a few years younger than me killed
himself (at age 16), and then that night got a call from my
best friend to say that the cops are after him for dealing
hash.

not good. :<

$220. that's what those motherfuckers want for my car. i
phoned 15 different wreckers and they all told me they could
give me anywhere between $35-$80. the last guy i talked to
asked what i was trying to get for it, so i explained the
situation and he laughed at me. yes, he laughed at me. told
me i was dreaming. thanks.

this is shitty. so completely fucking godawful shitty i
can't even believe it. sure, it's not like i was using it
anyways (the transmission got all fucked up a few weeks
ago), but now i'm fucked out of whatever money i could've
gotten for it. and i really kindof needed it. in a bad way.
my mother is going to fly down here from canada and beat the
shit out of me, too. and i'm really actually not kidding
about that, i don't think. the last few times we've spoken
she ended up screaming and hanging up on me. i'm
irresponsible, apparently. but this'll win her back over,
though, for sure.

i loved that car. sigh. a very unfitting end for our two
year relationship. but...i think i've come to find that
there's no such thing as a relationship that ends well.
whether it be with people or worldly posessions of
particular sentimental value. and that, too, is...well.
shitty. i think i have a new motto from all of this. "that's
shitty." that or "FUCK!" i haven't decided yet. i don't
know.

at least they'll let me get my shit out of it. in exchange
for the title, mind you, except for the cd player. of
course. fucking bastards. "the treasury is in charge of
impounding fees. they charge whatever the private company
charged for the towing plus an additional $150 dollars. and
then it's $15 for every additional day." i hope they shoot
their goddamn eyes out while masturbating all over
eachother. or something.

fuck. i'm so pissed off right now.

Here are the mp3's from my accident, they were recorded
because i forgot to turn off my minidisc player after a gig.
It was a fucking miracle that the cop didn't
breathalize me, I'm sure if the cops were white I'd still be
in jail now.

You go to yousendit.com or whatever, and email the file to

Also to clarify, I wasn't in jail, thanks to the awesome
cops.

my concern is more for your abdomen, go straight to the
doctors NOW!. If your appendix bursts or you do have an
ulcer you'll need immediate surgical and medical attention.
This is life or death here so once more GET OFF THE COMPUTER
AND GO TO THE DOCTOR'S NOW!!!!

if it's his appendix, hr would've already gone to the
doctors by now, it wouldv'e got so bad he would have no
choice

my car got towed about a year ago, it cost me £120 the
bastards. i wasn't really at fault, but i was parked in a
zone which is loading only from 4pm to 6pm. i bet hey get
someone there almost everyday.

they get motivated to give out fines, its illegal but most
companies have targets which must be reached. They are the
real crooks of our cities.
