It's a good thing I'm in a good mood today because I just realized that I hate my outfit today and my hair looks like crap.

Feelin' Alright

By Len

It’s early in the morning and I’m feeling kind of dumb,
I’m tryin real hard but I’m having no fun,
I’m looking all around and everything looks the same,
It’s like being the smartest kid in class and having no brain.
Sharon’s right beside me,
[Sharon] yeah I feel it too. And if you weren’t my little brother i’d take it out on you,
And D-rock and Moves just lost their fat-man flow,
It’s just a matter of time before my brains all blow.
My brain's all broken, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I feel like I’m chokin’, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I’m goin’ down fast, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I’m not gonna last, but I’m feelin’ alright,
Feelin’ alright.

Bad days are givin’ me the creeps,
And when I have them all I wanna do is freak,
And sometimes I don’t feel really strong
Enough to deal with bad days cause they last too long.

We’ve been thinking hard and figuring out what to make
Of all this stupid shit that makes you not think straight,
So should we just quit?
[Sharon] No, its not cool to run,
Well you know, i think she’s right,
Let’s show em how it’s done.

‘Cause it’s not just a matter of straight up holding your ground,
It’s all about your crew and the vibe you put down,
So if we’re all here, what’s this about a bad day?
We’re not going to take it sitting down, no way!

My brain's all broken, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I feel like I’m chokin’, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I’m goin’ down fast, but I’m feelin’ alright,
I’m not gonna last, but I’m feelin’ alright,
Feelin’ alright.

Bad days are givin’ me the creeps,
And when I have them all I wanna do is freak,
And sometimes I don’t feel really strong
Enough to deal with bad days cause they last too long.

I don't know any songs that people are supposed to sing in the pub, but I've recently discovered one I think I'd like to learn. It's sung by Cowboy Mouth and the title is "Irish Boy."

Here is my transciption of the lyrics:

Irish Boy
by Cowboy Mouth

Well, I had a drink with a friend of mine a week ago today
Who was celebratin' a month and a half too late Saint Patty's Day
Well, I bought him a round and he bought me a round and a bouncer bought us another
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?

Well, we looked at each other and hand to laugh as we lay there in our stink
Well I woulda cried if I woulda thought that every time I thought I'd drink
And if this poor, old, grey-haired ma hadda seen us there she woulda shuddered
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?

Well, my Irish friend, he liked to surf but me I couldn't swim
And he said that he could teach me how and I said I trusted him.
He swore he'd never let me drown he loved me like a brother.
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?

Well, sure enough I drowned and I wound up at the pearly gate
Where Saint Peter said, "You're drunk as hell! Son, you shoulda ate!"
So, he sent me back down to get a bite but instead a bought another
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?
What's an average boy from a good family doin' in the gutter?

Holy cow, y'all! I had such a nice date last night with a really sweet and really hot guy!

I know it's really too early to say anything about the direction of all of this, but it was such a nice time that I had to come tell you about it.

We just went out for drinks and it was a school night, so it was a short date, but the conversation was relaxed, fun, and dynamic. I definitely wished that we had had more time.

We're going for lunch today. Woohoo!

He's 6'1" with red hair and pretty blue eyes. He's a classical musician who is on tour with a Broadway production. As odd as it may seem, I'm kind of glad he's on tour because it means he travels a bit, which means we can't go out every single night, which is always the temptation when you meet someone new and fun. It's better when there's a lot of anticipation and excitement about your next meeting. You get to think about what was said last time and get hyped up about what might happen the next time.

Anyway, I'm very excited. I have to go to work now.

Update: Lunch with "Red" as we shall call him here was nice. I'm still a little awkward about being seen in public on a gay date and there we were out in broad daylight. Of course, no one could probably tell we were on a date, but the paranoid mind knows no reason on that.

All that aside, it was really great to see him and chat some more. Again, our time was cut short by the fact that I had to get back to work.
