Let’s Get Ready To Rumble!!

So I am normally a rather laid back person, and I think anyone who knows me can agree with that, as is Lisa my friend who got tickets for us to go to the Dave Matthews Show at Fenway tonight.
Well, we may be laid back but don’t fuck with Lisa when she is trying to enjoy a show.
Yes, we are talking to you mr fat ass sweaty man who decided to take off his shirt and swing it around. You were asked nicely to stop swinging it around because you kept hitting lisa with it and she did not appreciate getting smacked with your nasty T shirt while she is trying to dance and enjoy the show.
So yes, I did go inform security about you and they warned you, they should have tossed you right then and there, but they didn’t, and you hit her again a couple more times.
Then she turned around pissed off and took the t shirt from you, and then I took it from her. Yes, it all would have been find and you could have gotten your T shirt back at the end of the show, but no, you had to be the typical drunk asshole and threaten violence. No, leaning over and whispering to me that you wanted your shirt back or you were “Gonna open up house and clean up” wasn’t really anything that was bothering me, although I did put my glasses in my pocket to prevent them from getting broken when you did decide to be an idiot.
I really think you need to go take some lessons on how to fight someone, first of all, don’t be such a pussy and take a blind shot at someone, and if you are going to take a cheap shot at someone from behind, at least learn to actually hit them, you barely grazed me! I do have a lump, but you practically missed!
Luckily for you I didn’t throw a punch, even though I could have thrown many of them, simply because I wanted to continue to enjoy the show and not have to leave.
She really is not someone you want to be fucking with at this point, if you had not been nasty disgusting human being, chances are you probably would have literally had your balls ripped from your body. You actually looked scared(I would have bene if I were you) when she was standing on the chair and screaming at you after the cheap shots you took.
No wonder some people have such a negative attitude about people from boston and the drunk assholes that exist at concerts….
and I mean this in the nicest way possible, but if you are fat, chances are you know you are fat, and honestly – please do us all 2 favors – buy clothes that actually fit and keep them on while in public!!!
On another night, I liked the show a lot, and it was fun, they even learned Sweet Caroline for everyone to sing along with!
So Very Nice Out Here
Very nice out here, but it isn’t Boston…
I think the drivers out here are actually worse than in Boston, I know people say Boston is the worst, but LA area has them beat as far as I am concerned, especially when dealing with 6 lanes of traffic!
Now what would a blog spot from me be without a reference to a meal I ate somewhere right?
Well I had dinner tonight in the Hotel Sushi Bar, and it was fabulous! SO much better than the sushi around the Boston Area.
I had….
California Roll(fitting don’t you think?) which was crabmeat and avocado with sticky rice in a seaweed wrap
Maguro which is raw tuna on sticky rice with a spot of wasabi
Hamachi which is raw yellowtail on sticky rice with a spot of wasabi
Sake which is raw salmon on sticky rice with a spot of wasabi
Ebi which is cooked shrimp on sticky rice with a spot of wasabi
Hotate which is scallops in a spicy sauce, baked briefly and then put on top of sticky rice with a seaweed wrap
Albacore Tataki which is albacore tuna, lightly pan seared but raw on the inside on top of cucumber strips, with a sesame dressing
All as very tasty and filling while not being too much food either. I really liked the albacore, it melted in your mouth and was practically falling apart when picking it up with the chop stix, the tuna and yellowtail were great as well, and salmon was so so, just confirmed that I am not a huge fan of Salmon in general.
I am gonna head back there tomorrow to try out some other things, Uni(sea urchin) and Tako(octopus) looked very tasty so they may be on the menu for tomorrow night.
First Day on the Job!

ok, so not really.
Big corporation with paperwork and different levels, so I have not started yet, I technically am officially starting tomorrow, however my boss just told me to work from home and fill out the paper work that will be arriving by FedEx tomorrow.
When I asked him what he wanted me to do working from home, he told me to do whatever I wanted, fill out the paperwork, do some laundry, catch up on TV, not a big deal either way.
He has to order me a laptop, blackberry, cell phone, and a couple other things anyway for me to really do any work, which should all be ready for Wednesday when I will actually go into work.
Wow, rough huh?
So today I went down to Foxwoods, got up at 5am and drove down.
No, I am not a compulsive gambler, I went down for a Poker Tournament that starts at 8am, registration starts at 7, and there is a cutoff for number of people who can play, so I wanted to make sure I got in.
I got in no problem, but they cut it off at 220 people. I played pretty well for my first tournament down there, I would have gotten money had it been a 250 person tournament, but with only 220 I just missed out on it. I was somewhere in the mid 40’s for my place, which means about 170-180 people got the boot before me, and I successfully knocked out 4 people at my table before I got the boot. I was stupid on one hand when I had a 9/10 suited, and a 9/10 were on the board as high cards, so I played it with people. Only real problem was that I failed to realize there was also a 7/8 on the board, and the 2 other guys both had Jacks so they beat me and split the pot.
All in all it was fun, I went and learned how to play Pai Gow poker afterward, and made back $20, then went and played some Caribbean Stud and some Let It Ride to make back the other $40 of the $60 from the tournament, so I come home only down the cost of gas, and the $4 I spent on Papa Gino’s halfway home for lunch.
Not a bad trade off for 5 hours of entertainment!
