The Ouzo Diaries

fuckin hell. i can't...i can't even write. i've been trying to put together one of these little blogs for the past week or whatever and...shit. i just can't do it. let me see if i can try to explain why. ummmmmm. yeaaaaah. pericles. alright. there we go. i've got it. the reason that i can't write a blog, is because the past two weeks of my life have been a gigantic inside joke. it's come to a point where conversations barely happen anymore. all we do is continue on the long running joke. and it's been some sort of...heaven.
their names are el and ken. 1.2.3. hi el and ken. and i've spent nearly every waking hour of the past 11 days or so with them. we're a strange incestuous little family. there's leo (that's me.) paris (that's el) and our kid cyprus (that's ken). i feel i should introduce these friends of mine, who i wish you all could meet. but sadly, desperately sadly, they will remain halfway around the world. and most likely, we'll never see each other again. it's difficult to fall in love with two people in two weeks and then say goodbye forever. isn't it? of course, i exaggerate. but it's not too far off the mark. here. here is the song that i've heard probably over 30 times in the past week.

Oh she made us drinks, to drink
We drunk 'em, got drunk
And then I think she thinks I'm cool
She gave me a wink, I winked back
And then I think that, we hit it off something proper like...

[Chorus (T-Pain):]
I like the bartender
(Oh if you're lookin' for me)
I'm at the bar with her
(Uh-huh, OK)
I like the bartender
(Yeah if you're lookin' for me)
I'm at the bar with her
(Oh uh-huh, OK)

okay. you see, i was meant to leave this place 6 days ago, but el tried to play music in order to make me stay. to change my flight for the 2nd time. and when she played that song, and danced along to it, ken and i just could not stop laughing. not that we ever can. it was so perfect. it was such a perfect image of our lives.

sort of like my leaving athens, this post was merely because i felt like i have to. i do hope my brain recovers...but for now, i'm happy just laughing.

top songs
