Although I had originally told myself to hold out on buying Star Trek on Blu-ray, I found myself heading to Best Buy after work last Tuesday.  I could not resist owning and watching this summer’s biggest action blockbuster on my PS3/Blu-ray player with HDMI cable connected to my Toshiba LCD TV!  B’dis good!

Friday night after work I went to go pick up Moon, a friend of mine from Columbia who was in town visiting his dad, and went out to Ground Zero for a benefit show with EVERY MANS ENEMY.  Neither of us were feeling great as both of us were having ‘digestive issues’ so we stopped and picked up anti-diarrhea medicine which seemed to settle us both.

We got to the show a little after nine and PARALLEL THEORY was already on stage followed by CHIVALRY featuring former members of EVERY MANS ENEMY.  Next was OBC (ORDER BY CORRUPTION) and then FROM TOMORROW featuring Epps, formerly of HEADSNAP.  EVERY MANS ENEMY went on last to close out the night and help with some of the prize drawings for the benefit.

It was great getting to see some people I haven’t seen in a while since I haven’t been to GZ in quite some time.  Moon spent most of the night getting hammered since I was the good ol’ DD and ended the evening talking to ‘Ralph’ in the GZ bathroom.  I had to go in and guide him out to the car where his empty Walgreens plastic bag awaited him so he blow more chunks on our way back to his dad’s house.  To his credit, he managed not to get a single drop of vomit in my car.  Kudos!

I didn’t get home and in my bed until around 4 a.m. so, needless to say, I was a little less-than-perky getting up five hours later to come in and do an on-air shift.  Quite a few people told me I sounded hungover even though I had only had a shot of Jager(meister) and a Captain (Morgan’s) and Coke earlier the night before.  I was just exhausted and I was hoarse from having to scream in everyone’s ear every time I tried to talk to someone during the show.

When I got off at 2, I went home and ordered some pizza from Wedgy’s and had P1 All Day Toker deliver.  I don’t think I opened my door once the rest of the weekend….
