one lonely success

so i found out a few minutes ago that i got denied fan club tickets to BOTH of the Dave Matthews Band shows at the Hollywood Bowl.

how can this be?

i’ve been a warehouse member for a long time and a fan for even longer. when the band finds out about this fuck up they are going to be pissed.

it appears now that i will either have to *cough* up cash to the ebay crowd or skip both shows? this blows.

also here is a story about something funny that i said:

the coffee at the hotel was questionable so i walked across the street to starbucks for a fix. the nice barista greeted me at the counter and when i tried to order a tall coffee it came out *bow-wha-wha-wow-kerplunk*. on my second attempt i was much more successful and actually got out the words, “doing great, may i have a tall drip?”

after she set my coffee on the counter she asked what i swear sounded like, “would you like a picture of a coconut?”

“excuse me. i’m sorry did you ask me if i’d like a picture of a coconut?”

she replied giggling, “no i asked if you’d like a pastry or a coconut bar?”

quite convinced that she thought i was drunk, i decided to keep talking:

“no thank you, but do you have pictures of any other fruits?”

i delivered this line in my best mitch hedberg tone and everyone was laughing b/c i am hilarious or b/c they thought a drunk man had stumbled into their shoppe on a thursday afternoon.

i’m going with the funny.
