Hey, remember that time Greg was almost arrested for a domestic dispute?
Hey everyone...oh do i have a story for you.
So on Thursday, we decided to celebrate Easter weekend in style. We kicked it off with some pregaming in Katie's room. Katie, Ashley (her friend), Frantz, and I all hung out in Katie's room and had some fun before we head out to the bar. So we throw back a few and then jump on the RIPTA. At this point a 64 year old man hits on Ashley and Katie, and hilarity ensues. So we arrive at The Bean, have a few drinks and then dance the night away at Gillary's.
At Gillary's, we danced all over the place, including the stage type structure on the side and Frantz and I of course were wearing our Aviators. This promted people to notice us and i was called Elvis the rest of the night. :)
Well shortly after this, a fight broke out in Gillary's and it was forced to close. At this point Katie got a call from Bobby who informed her that he was waiting in her room. Well Katie wanted to walk home right then and there and i had to stop her, reminding her that we are taking the shuttle in 20 minutes instead of walking for 40+ minutes.
So we head up to the shuttle stop and at this moment i realize that Frantz isnt with me. So now i have to search for him. I look for the nearest kid in a leather jacket and yell "FRANTZ!!" Sure enough, he turns around....booya. So now we wait....hmmmm the shuttle is a little late......hmmmm the shuttle is 5 minutes late.....hmmm the shuttle is 10 minutes late. So it is now that a police cruiser pulls up and asks if we are ok. We tell them that we are simply waiting for the RIPTA. Well now he tells us that there are no more RIPTA buses on the schedule, dispite the fact that i have the official shuttle schedule in my pocket and the time and day was correct. So at this point Katie starts walking home. We follow suit and try to keep up with her, but she is walking with a purpose. So we are walking along, and i am extremely frustrated because Katie really wants to get home and she Bobby, but i can't help her. Further frustrating me is the fact that Katie allllllllways finds a way home for me. So we keep walking, and when we are about 15 minutes away, the RIPTA passes us by.....awesome. So i lose it and yell at the RIPTA bus and swear and stuff of that nature. So now Katie crosses the street and i have no idea were she is going. I try to get her to turn around and come back, but like i said, she is walking with a purpose. So Frantz heads back the normal way and i go after Katie, not wanting her to get hurt or lost. So we are arguing a little because i dont know where we are, but i trusted Katie, i just wanted to protect her. So it turns out Katie did in fact know where she was going. So now we are home free, 5 mintues from Bayside.
Oops...what is that? Is that a police cruiser pulling up next to us? Yup. Oh joy...there are the blue lights. So the cop gets out and askes us what is going on. Katie kinda snaps back "nothing, i just want to go to my room." So the police officer gets angry since Katie has dirt all over her knees and mascara running down her face. Suddenly i notice....i am in deep trouble. So inform the officer that i am just trying to get Katie home and that she fell a couple of times (true, she really did). I explained everything and then they sort of believed me. They were mad however because Katie was very frustrated and drunk (as was i) and she just wanted to get back to her room to see Bobby.
So it turns out that someone either heard me yelling, or us arguing in the street, and called in a domestic dispute to the Bristol PD. So now they call Public Safety and they pick us up, pick up Frantz who was stopped and treated very rudely because he couldn't tell the officers where Katie was, and then we all head home. But it was certainly a fairly close call, becuase it certainly looked like i had beat up Katie or something.
The highlight of the night though was this:
Police Officer: "I have a Gregory Walsh, 12-18-1985, and a Katie Blythe, 12-18-1985."
Dispatcher: "You gave me the same birthday for both. Is that correct?"
PO: "You guys have the same birthday?"
Katie: "Yea"
Greg: "Yup...we are Birthday Buddies."
Freakin sweeeeet. Hehe. So yea, other then that, the night was a lot of fun and something we will problably end up doing again this weekend. Hopefully with out the cops this time. :P
(Happy with this gossip Nick?)

Just for Nick
So Nick, being the great friend that he is, got on my case about not blogging anymore, so i will ty to get back into it.
For whatever reason, i have lost the drive/creative juices to write cool blogs. So i stopped. I also did create another blog to capture all my amazing autograph and memorabilia items...but i didn't even do that. So...i suck a little. But i have been busy, so let me fill you in.
1. This semester has been a "lonely" semester for me because a good chunk of my friends went to Italy to study abroad. But, i have used this semester as a exploration semester. I have gone outside my "comfort zone" and made new friends and tried new things.
2. I have enjoyed being 21, and i have had a lot of fun going to Gillary's, The Bean, and Topsides. Gillary's is a dance style bar, The Bean is a typical bar, and Topsides is a nice mix. Gillary's had an amazing AC/DC cover band a while back and they are playing next weekend so i am excited about that.
3. I have been getting trained for my WQRI position for next year. I am having a great time bonding with my fellow E-Board members and learning my role for next year. We have a lot of plans coming up in order to get everyone used to each other and i am extremely excited to take part in them.
4. I went to Italy for Spring Break to see my girlfriend and my wayward friends. It was great to see everyone again and i had a great time. We went to Venice and Florence and i saw some amazing sights and was blown away by the culture differences. All in all it was an amazing trip and i was totally not ready to leave.
Well that is about all i can think about writing right now. Maybe this will be a nice stepping stone into my creative juices starting to flow again. Stay tuned!!

Hello, my name is Greg Walsh, CEO.
Hey everyone, long time no see. It is entirely my fault but lets face it, my life has been somewhat boring since the last post. To catch you up, i saw Tenacious D in concert and it rocked, and thats about all i really did over this past semester. Although i haven't been updating this blog, im not so terrible, because i have updated Greg's Autograph Zone, so check that out if you feel like it.
Anyways, recently, my life has changed big time. I am enjoying my break and getting in some much needed rest. This of course is because my girlfriend, and few of my great friends have left for Italy for....gasp.....a whole semester. So i got my time in as much as possible with Ashley before she left and i sent her on her way to have an amazing amazing amazing semester. Needless to say, se is already
enjoying herself over there. Heh. So with Ashley gone for awhile i have some free time. I have been cleaning my room and getting things in order, and playing some video games. I have also been helping my dad out a lot with various tasks, so that keeps me busy. My brother moved out, so that is something really new. He has a great apartment and i am TOTALLY jealous and happy for him. I hope he has a lot of fun and really enjoys the newly accquired freedom.
So i was prepared to do absolutely nothing for the rest of the break when suddenly, my mom came home from work and dropped a job offer right in my lap. After learning about it, i agreed to take it and called Candita (my boss). She immediately offered me the job and i literally had to initiate the training which was hilarious. So i met her at her office....a booth at the Au Bon Pan and we went over the job....well it just so happens that it is one of the coolest jobs i have ever had. What it is, is an advertising job for her magazine, the healthy living guide, and i will be in charge of selling ad space for the quarterly issues. I was very excited about it and then it got better. I never have to leave my computer, so i can work in my pj's and never have to leave the house/dorm room. So obviously this is a job that i will continue throughout the year, and will only really have to do in my free time. There is a commitment to it, but because i work on a commission, i only get paid for what i sell, so that is my incentive. I am very excited about this and believe it or not, it even got better. Well i have to file for a 1099 form for my taxes because she isn't legally hiring me, i am just helping her out and she is paying me. Therefore i have to file out this form and basically act like i am starting my own company. Which means that i have to make up a name. Which means that i own a company now. Yup.....let that sink in for a second. I Gregory Gage Walsh have my own company. ..............I'll wait......take your time......Ok, now that you understand that, let me tell you the name.
GW Advertising and Communications. Yup thats my name so far. I might drop the advertising and just say GW Communications. I still have time to decide, but what i don't need to decide on is what my title is. And it is of course the CEO. Yup, i Gregory Walsh am the CEO of GW Communications. How jealous are you!!
Anyways that is the amazing news that i got today and i know that you are all at your maximum jealousy for the day, so i will stop there. So leave some feedback for any of you that actually still read this blog and let me know what you think my companies name should be, and if the board of trustees agrees, we might listen to your suggestion.

Wow...I suck.
So first off, i apologize to all my faithfully readers. I realize that i haven't updated in over two months. Unexcuseable. I hate it when others do that and i hate it when i do it. But in all honesty, it happens. Writers cramp, writers block, lack of motivation, or of course just a boring life. My excuse is a little of those but a lot of busy-ness. I have been on the go so much and add that to the work i have had to do/should have done and you get a month or two of no posts. But i apologize, and i will try to not do it again.
Having said that......What have i been up to you ask?
Well, i moved into Stonewall 1232 and it rocks. I love living with Ricky, it's great because since i live with him, i can see him even if he has work to do. I talked to steve and he seems to be having a blast/really happy at BU, so that rocks! I have been spending a lot of time with Ashley (obviously) but also because of her loss. She lost her Grandfather who was very close to her, more then normal grandparents are, so it has been tough on her. I have tried to be there as much as i could for her because i know what it is like to loose someone clase to you when you are far away from home at college. She is a trooper and will def get through this, cuz she rocks! I have also been working a lot, i am actually at work right now typing this, but i worked a couple of saturday mornings so that put a damper on the weekends. But we were blessed with a vist by Jimbo one weekend and Meg and Willams another weekend. So they def helped make the time fly by (cuz time flies when your having fun!). Then one weekend i went to Nick's kick ass apartment in Fitchburg and we had a blast that weekend. Then i had to go home for various reasons. And that led me to the decision that i am staying here all weekend, even though it is a holiday long weekend.
And that brings me to now. I am currently pumped up about Halloween. Me and Ricky are being Mario and Luigi respectively. Ashley is being the princess and Jena is being Yoshi. We are planning a costume party of some sort and it will surely be hilarious. I spent most of last weekend searching for Over-Alls for Mario, and i ordered a Red "Flex-Fit" Hat from eBay.
Well thats just about it. Wanted to let you all know how i was doing. I have a more elaborate post coming soon so don't worry, im not just turning this blog into a stupid "Dear Diary: I did this today" blog.

Greg's Autograph Zone!
Hey everyone! It's me again and now this isnt really another autograph/memorabilia post, but it kinda is. Seeing as i dont really think that you all want to read about my memorabilia collection, i decided to seperate my hobbie from my thoughts. So now "Sometimes you just need a cookie" will be soley about those little things in my life that i want to share with you all (and hopefully all the little things in my life that you want to read about.) And for all of you people out there that are as excited as i am about autographs and memorabilia, there is a brand new Bolg JUST FOR YOU!! This is a work in progress and will probably only have the first post on there until i get to school and i am excited to do an autograph timeline. But for the mean time, you can check it out here:
Greg's Autograph Zone (GAZ). So enjoy, and you can always get to it by click over
