A Week & A Census

This week is at long last past.
On Monday I was diligent to track down a job via word of mouth. I went to the place that was uspposed to be hiring, some sort of auto parts factory. While hardly a coveted place to work, i made the effort to apply. there was a vesitbule with blank application forms and a metal box to put them in once completed.
I was having none of that. I needed to speak with someone and so i crashed a private office door.
A very grumpy older woman arrived, clearly disturbed from doing the doing nothing revelry she was engaged in.
Upon questioning, she could not answer a single question i asked and so i requested to meet with someone that could answer questions.
she called for someone and a short, fat, troll like, miserably unhappy woman appeared.
i questioned her at length about the application procedure.
she could not have been less pleasant if she were paid.
so that concluded that portion of my day where i considered being a seven dollar an hour, blue collar, auto parts factory worker.
the rest of the week consisted of sleeping late, being up for a couple of hours then taking a 2-4 hour nap each day.
Save one night durning the week when the new, next door neighbor knocked on my door.
he is 31 and between him and his wife they have 6 children from the ages of 4-16. he arrived at my house to ask if he could just get away from the fighting with his wife and all of the screaming children and in return, he arrived with a pint of whiskey for us both.
and so we drank the whiskey while watching an old james bond movie on tv as my phone rang off the hook.
at some point, he raised the long sleeve t-shirt on his right arm to reveal a tatoo from his elbow to this wrist that said 'WHITE'
and then proceeded to raise the long sleeve t on his other arm to reveal a tatoo that said 'POWER'.
huh.
ok. whatever.
he's got tatoos.
then i realized what he was telling me.
he is into "WHITE POWER"/neo nazi/white supremecism.
while i was freaking out in my head about this, i i smiled and nodded and acted non chalantly wondering where this was going.
He made a point to tell me that he got into this whole white power thing while being imprisoned for five years for being drunk and beating up a guy in a bar fight and then smashing out the windows of that guys car.
GREAT.
out of no where, i have a this guy that was imprisoned for being violent and destructive while drunk, getting drunk in my living room.
what to do?
i let him talk and learned that he was thrilled to move into a neighbrohood where the next door neighbor (ME) was of aryan blood and of german, aristocratic extraction.
The ironic thing is that upon his prison release, he married a mexican girl with 5 five kids. He expressed unhappiness with that decision.
i don't know what to make of this whole thing. i thought it was odd that he mentioned that i should have a kid with his hot, blonde cousin. i highly doubt that his 'hot, blonde cousin' could navigate the intracacies of new york and boston society.
In other news, i did receive an e-mail confirming an interview for next week re. me managing a new gym (owners are friend of my parents) so i will see what comes of that. It would be great to be able to work out for free and flirt my ass off with the hot women, and network my ass off with everyone else and then be able to retreat to my cottage when not working there.
i ahppened to catch up with my friend's wife this evening via im and she wondered why i had not attended the mid-winter yacht club party.
i replied that no one had told me of it.
she went on to say that she and her husband were there and the woman in charge of telling me about it carried on and on about how she had told me of it.
She had not done anything of the kind.
The host and hostess on whose yacht i go out on were insulted that i had not attended.
The woman in charge of telling me is 22 years older than me, and was a cougar when i was a boy just out of college. i have seen her though her latest two marriages and conducted business with her lates husband.
when her husband turned out to be a piece of shit excuse for a man, they were both dismissed. she even had the audacity to ring me and leave a threatening voice mail.
no worries. i have more on her and her pos husband to bury them both. all they ned to do is keep running their mouths and they will sink themselves.
That aside, friends wife asked if i would be at aother annual party in February. Of course i will attend that party and was happy she reminded me of it.
Please know i am not being arrogant when i say this - but when i attend a party that is held once a year, i am a welcome party guest and the hosts of the party are happy i attend and always wonder why i did not make it when i don't.
So, this was a week of an ex trying to smear my name and a week in which i took a test and scored very high, and learned about my new neighbor.
All in a week's work i suppose.

Beware of Aryans bearing whiskey! :cool:

Why if I may ask is your ancestry of common knowledge to the rest of the neighborhood. I have many white neighbors and have no idea what their ethnic make up is nor do I care. :confused:
 
Hahaha. That sounds awful. I once talked a friend into asking a group of people into helping us jumpstart his car. They ended up getting us beers and while we were talking a girl said I looked like Matisyahu..At some point the lead guy showed me his ABG tattoo...Aryan Brotherhood gang. Between that and some other shit I ended up with bad anxiety that night that took months to get over.
 
NJ - neighbor asked if i was german. i replied that my mother is. so that takes care of him. other neighbors have seen my mother when she has visited and ascertained from her appearance that she is german.
 
Hey dude I just joined and was surfing blogs, I know exactly what you mean by ny/ boston society's social intricacies; I have some social goals you might be able to advise me on, but I wanted to drop a note first before trying to send a friend request
