CLIC FOR PICS

Okay so I was booked for a portrait session at Crush on Thursday for the Mobsters Ball. And of course me being the responsible professional that I called about strobe rental on Wednesday! And like how my procrastination always works out for me, the lights were unavailable. Good work Twoey! So I called up my photog friend Matty from Forplay.com and he said I could use his strobe and of course he has to live in f*cking Kalamzoo!!! I am such an idiot! hahhaha.... okay, I had just got done putting together Music Revue Magazine (musicrevuemag.com) and had been up for like ONE MILLION hours and I was about ready to die, but I had to go get the lights, so I leave my office at like 12:30pm to go home and clean up, I grabbed some Wendy's because I hadn't eating like 12 hours, I get to my apartment and find some yellow piece of paper wedged in my door, I grab it and go in, I am thinking to myself that it was pretty cold in my place but I continued to scarf down my chicken nuggys. I grab the yellow paper and look at it, it was a nice note from Consumers Energy telling me that they had turned my power off that morning. Apparantly I didn't believe the letter they left me because I slowly turn around too look at the microwave and stove. No clocks! Dammit they really did turn that sh*t off! At this point I had already felt like f*ck, I hadn't bathed in like 2 days, I was exhausted and now I have no f*cking power! Geezuss!!! So I checked the water and there was still some hot stuff left. Thank f*cking poop for that. I got ready and put on some wrinkled ass jeans and called Ian. Ian picks me up and on the trip I called the Consumers Energy f*cks. I was on the phone with the for 39 f*cking minutes. 35 of those minutes were spent on hold. I was out for blood. So they are like... someone will come out within' the next 24 hours and someone has to be there. I am going... "Ummm... so I am suppose to wait there for the next 24 hours?" they would not and could not give my any other answer than 24 hours, they were like "Someone could how up in the next 20 minutes or not." I was on the verge of a killing spree. I felt like Michael Douglas in Falling Down. Anyway, I got off the phone finally and called Frederick and explained to him about my irresponsiblity and why we had no power. He wasn't very happy but what the F could I do. So we continute on our trip to K-zoo and pick up the strobe. I called Tbera so she could meet up with us for a cocktail. She is such a hottie. We are going to shoot soon. Wheee!!! I was tired a f*ck so a 22oz beer and shot of rum kicked my ass. I fell asleep on the way back to GR. Thank rice I wasn't driving. So... I was late as hell getting back to GR, Amber and I had dinner plans pre-Crush. She had on this cute ass Sharon Stone / Casion-esque outfit totally Gangsta ass cutie wifey look. No one knew her so we were telling everyone that she was my fiance'. Matt was like... "Okay, how do you put up with Twoey and all the girls? Are you going to make him stop taking pictues?" It was funny as f*ck. From 10p-12a I was in the lobby taking pictues, it was a lot of fun. A lot of people had sweet mobster outfits on. I broke the quipment down at around midnight and made my way into the club for some sweet debachury. Amber wanted to be my new myspace profile pic so we were taking scandalous pics all night. At one point, we had her friend Nate take a picture of me squeezing Ambers boobs. It sucked so I had him take another, he takes it and shoves the camera into my hand and storms away. I was like... "What's up with him?" Amber goes... "Well, we are friends, but he is my ex-boyfriend." I was like... "Ohhhhhh..." and then I laughed my ass off. After that we wandered around Crush looking for trouble to get into and believe me, trouble wasn't very far! Hehhehee... we slid over to the corner of the bar (the Fulton and Monroe side) and were playing with Anna, Killean, Stoophy and some friend of theirs. Anna was being so naughty. We kept making out, it was hot! So I am standing there and Caitlin comes running up to me and like leaps onto me. She is all wrapped around me so I do what comes natural and pretend to do her. haha... everyone is looking and I am just like... "And your point?" hahah... (I talked to Caitlin on Friday and she didn't even believe me when I told her what she did. I always have evidence so it was all good. haha... you know what is weird is when I go out on let's say Thursday, but i write the Diary on Saturday and then I refer to sh*t from Friday in Thursday's diary, it is like time traveling or something. Dork!) Ummm... oh yeah, so I saw my Russian friend who's name totally escapes me right now but it is something sexy and Russian. She was like... "You got me in trouble with your pictures! My daughter saw those!" and then she was like... "You get girls to do whatever you want them to in pictures, stuff that they would never do, how do you do it?" I was like... "Ummm... what did I do to get you to do what I wanted?" hahah... I don't really do anything. I just say let's take some pictures. I think I give people an excuse to let loose. Okay well, I admit, sometimes I do hypnotize girls to make them do my bidding, but it is not often. hhahaha... after the club Amber and I drove around looking for the Walking Wiener because they were not at the regular spot. So after we circled the city a couple of times, Amber says "Oh... are we looking for a cart with a funny yellow and red canopy on top?" I am like.... "Yeah!" she goes... "Oh I saw one down this street." I was like.. "Why didn't you say anything!" hahhaha... so we finally found them, they have this cool "Batcave" where they store the stand now. It is really cool. We hung out in the "Batcave" and had some weiners and then went home.
