Alex's 21st birthday was yesterday, so we partied hardcore, and by we I mean they drank themselves stupid and I watched. I had to drive Joe and myself home that night, and I also had job related shit to do in the morning. We ate at Quaker Steak and Lube then went back to Alex's for Halo and beer pong. Joe is surprisingly good. Maybe that's because he wasn't drinking. heh We headed home around midnight, and that was about it. I met soom pretty cool people there like Trish and Inu (I hope I spelled it right), and Alex's sister's boyfriend (I'm sorry, but I can't remember either of their names right now. heh) This morning at 11 I was to go in to Wal-Mart for something job related. It was just to verify that I still wanted the position and that I could do all that was asked. I officially have the job now. That's the good news. The bad news os that for some reason or other they can't bring me in for orientation.to start until sometime in June. The begining of June is the best case scenario. I was hoping to have made some cash by then since I've been reluctantly using my tax checks for gas and food despite the fact that they were supposed to be exclusively for AC. Job money was to throw around not tax money. That means until I get my first paycheck I'm living off my AC fund since Mom refuses to help me out with anything except groceries. If I'm lucky I'll have 2 paychecks by the time AC rolls around. If that's the case then I'm definately not going to Otacon the week after AC. *growls* Gods damn Wal-Mart for being so slow. Then again, they were the only one to call me back, so they can't be all that bad. Either way, I have nothing to do now but sit on my ass, play video games, see Kyle, and make all-around lazy. I'd enjoy it more if I had cash to go along with my lazy. And How Does That Make You Feel?  frustrated |

Oh shit! I'm back (again). The semester is over, and I'm happy as a clam, or as a blue jay as the case may be. I just got out of a job interview at Wal-Mart this morning, and provided Old-Man Bob doesn't blackball me, I should get the job. I'd be working in the pet area, and making $0.80 more than my mom does at the elementary school. That's both funny and sad at the same time. I've been chilling out since getting home, seeing Kyle some more, and making lazy. It was Kyle's birthday yesterday, so we "celebrated" it all morning. heh Later on we met Nick and Dawn at Olive Garden before heading back to my house to watch Gone in 60 Seconds. There are plenty more things I could report on, but I figure I'll start fresh. No more, "I'll post about significant event later." crap. At least not with anything that has already happened. heh For now the tv calls me. Expect...well don't expect anything here. I'll update when I can be buggered to do it. See y'all eventually. *flys off* And How Does That Make You Feel?  pleased |

| Party's Over Already?! |

Well, I called it. The party was a wash. It was Josh, Tay, Danish, and myself. Kirsten and Scotty never showed up. We watched Repo then Tay and Danish left. So much for the musical marathon and blank white cards. BWC wouldn't have been much fun with only three or four people anyway, so it's not that big of a loss. We didn't have any of our heavy hitters, so there wouldnt've been many amazing and/or memorable cards. I'm kind of used to any partys that I plan bolwing up on me, so it's nothing new. I was thinking of having a Star Wars marathon, all six movies back to back, but with the way things usually go it's only be 3 people, and 2 of them wouldn't really like Star Wars. What do y'all think? Should I try to throw another party, or should I just say, "Fuck it." and not even bother? No matter what the future holds, right now I'm going to finish up the second Ender's Shadow and probably read some more of my book. See y'all eventually. And How Does That Make You Feel?  cynical |

The party hasn't even started, and it's already going downhill. Kyle couldn't come which makes me a sad birdy, Nick called and told me he couldn't come (30 minutes after I had left to go get him), and Constantine called to say he couldn't come. Josh and I are still coming (it is our room after all), Tay and Danish are still comming, and Kirsten and her boyfriend Scotty might be coming (she's still a bit put off by Tay, so she may not come). It's still a party, but (no offense to those who're still coming) it's not a par tay. We don't have crabman, I don't have my roo, and the greek charades champ isn't around. We still have our ravers and anime kids, so it's still cool. I just hope that all of this is just a little thing and not an omen signaling worse things to come tonight. I guess we'll find out soon enough, and y'all find out either later on tonight or tomorrow (depending how tired/busy I am). I also went to the comic shop nearby, and it was quite amazing. I picked up Deadpool #'s 1-3, The New Avengers #49, Dark Avengers #1, Ender's Game #3, and Ender's Shadow #'s 1&2. There are 4 more Deadpool comics I need before I'm caught up, but aside from that everything's cool. I also had a 15% off coupon for Barnes & Noble, so I picked up Young Avengers vol 1. Sidekicks. With the first 6 volumes of New Avengers (collecting #'s1-31) coming I'm doing pretty well getting caught up on new-ish comics (or at least the ones I like). I'm becoming more and more of a comic nerd, so I'm pretty happy. Heheh Either way this jay has to get ready for the party, so I'll report back eventually. See y'all. *flies off into the unknown* And How Does That Make You Feel?  calm |

So, how'd everyone spend their day off from classes? Me? I spent my day watching Doctor Who and poking around the interwebs. I did, however, accomplish some tasks. I did the dishes, and I ordered some movies online. When they arrive and when I pick up two from home I'm going to throw a musical party. We shall watch Sweeny Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, Doctor Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Repo! The Genetic Opera, Mamma Mia!, and Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It will be at least 5^n kinds of epic (where n>1)! We also had a floor meeting today that accomplished absolutely nothing. They never do, but we can hope that one day it will be eventful. Tomorrow is back to classes for most. I don't have any classes on Tuesdays, so I'm spending tomorrow sleeping and possibly at the mall. The new Reel Big Fish CD comes out tomorrow and I have to return the two movies I rented, so I may be travelling tomorrow. I hope the roads aren't all that bad. For now this little birdy is going to relax and get ready for bed. G'night everybody, and I'll see y'all eventually. And How Does That Make You Feel?  lazy |

Saturday began with a shower. Woo! Yeah, shower! Kyle got to the dorm at 1100, and we killed much time with stupid videos on YouTube. I dragged my mattress down off the bed and onto the floor for some cuddlespace, and we settled in to watch Burn After Reading. I don't even think we made it halfway through the movie when Tay and Chris showed up. We watched King Fu Panda then declared an ice cream run and went to Wal-Mart. We picked up some pop, snackages, pizza, but no ice cream, and no wiper blades...again. heheh The kitchen on my floor was locked, so we went up to Tay's floor to cook the pizza. While waiting for the pizza we started up a game of 1000 blank white cards. When the pizza was done we took it all back down to my room where shit got random ass-insane. Many articles of clothing were taken off from everybody and swapped around. We had quite a few cards that required people to go out into the lobby next door and do something with the lobby residents watching. Needless to say they think we're fucking retarded. Crab man debuted up at Eddinboro when I had to do the Crab man walk down the hall and back. The game eventually ended, and we all settled in to watch The Clone Wars. About half way through the movie Tay left, and Chris left when the movie ended. Much snuggling, cuddling, groping and such went on which ultimately resulted in dot dot dot. (Mamma Mia! reference ftw!) I couldn't have had a more wonderful night. Kyle had to leave today, and it made me a sad little jay bird. I can dig it though because of what he said in a text that's too true. It makes the times we see eachother all the more special when we don't see eachother as often. I couldn't agree more with that sentiment, but I'd still love to see him more. I love my roo so very much *sends much hugs and kisses to da roo* After Kyle left I lazed around the room until 1830 when the Steelers game came on. The rest of my night tonight will consist of Steelers, Doctor Who, and the interwebs. No classes tomorrow, so I'm probably going to play some Tales of Vesperia. Since I have no classes Tuedsay; I'm going to hit up the mall to pick Reel Big Fish's new CD and Repo! on DVD. For now it's back to football. G'night, and I'll see y'all eventually.

| Time Travel (part one) |
|
|
10:03am 11/01/2009 |
|

Let's take a trip. This isn't your usual trip to some random place, rather it is a trip to some random time. The date is December 31st, 2008...*cue wavy flashback scene* I was supposed to road trip down to Philly with one of an ever-changing list of people to party with Alex, Lexi, and Ross. Due to various complications, however, I stayed local instead of trucking it across state. I began by meeting Kyle at South Hills Village where we wandered around for a bit before catching the T into Pittsburgh. We got off at Station Square and nommed down some Subway while we waited for Devon. We poked around the shops, and I picked up the first issue of Dark Reign. The plan was, or so we thought, that Kyle and I would meet Devon down at the Wood Street T station where his bus lets him off. At the appropriate time Kyle and I trucked it across the bridge and into town. As we were about a block or two from Wood Street Devon informs us that he's going to meet us at Station Square, so we don't have to walk all the way into town. Grrr... Instead of walking back we take the T back, and Wait for Devon back at SS. When he gets there more Subway is had. We walked around for a bit, every so often passing the shitty band playing in the middle of the Square. Around midnight we headed over to the underside of the Ft. Pitt Bridge where we sat on a support and waited for the fireworks. We had an amazing view of the Point and thus an amazing view of the fireworks, or so we thought. At midnight Kyle asked me to be his boyfriend, and without any hesitation I said, "Yes." The fireworks began, but we only knew that by the reflections off of this one building. They were setting them off from the other side of town, and there were buildings in our way. That didn't stop us from enjoying the moment, and said moment was wonderful. We walked back to the SS T station to wait, with a metric fuck-ton of people, for the T back home. There were 4 cars total, as opposed to the usual 2, and they were all stuffed to capacity. The first stop took quite some time because of some drunk dudes. The driver was fucking amazing. People were complaining about the long wait and the full cars, and the driver just came on and said, "You don't have to yell at me from the back of the car. I'm up at the front, so if you want to say something say it to my face." It sounded so polite, but you know that if anyone went up there he'd kick their ass. Because there were so many people getting off at the last stop and because of the wait at the first stop, we got the ride for free. We trucked it from SHV to Cal where there was much snuggles and murr. We headed off to Denny's for breakfast, and then we parted ways. I took Dev back to my house for a bit before I took him home. Over all, it was an amazing time, and I wouldn't change a thing. I love Kyle very much, and hope we have many more times like this one. *end flashback scene* Wasn't that interesting? Next time we'll travel back to the 3rd of January 2009 for the report on Tay's party. For now I have to pack up the car and head off to The Boro. The semester starts tomorrow, and I have to get ready. For now I'll say, see y'all eventually.

I'm a bit late, but here's my Labour day Weekend post. After class on Friday Tay and I headed home to chillax, and hang out with our friends. As we were trucking it down 79 I had decided to stop at the Prime Outlets at Grove City. I had never been there before, and was wondering what all the hubub was about. We spent a good 2 and 1/2 hours there. Our trip ended with me getting some fudge, a collapseable collandar, and a spork. This wasn't a regular spork mind you. This one was a spoon on one end, a fork on the other, and one of the outer tines on the fork was serrrated. I got Tay some chocolate covered strawberries, and I picked right because she liked them. I feel accomplished! Anywho, after that we headed back to my house and spent the night. Saturday I got the new registration card for my card, and we went out to eat. I want to say that I did something else, but my brain doesn't want to remember right now. If anyone knows please tell me. Sunday myself, Tay, and Joe all hung out at Amy's to play some Rock Band, and to watch movies. We watched Rocky Horror Picture Show and Sin City. RHPS was pretty damned awesome! Sin City, on the other hand, was meh. It was ok, but it wasn't the greatest. It's not my thing. It all went pretty well except Amy's house was fucking Tay all up. Allergens coming out of every oriface in that house. I won't go into details, but needless to say it wasn't fun for her. Monday I decided to try to log onto FurryMUCK. It took a bit of trying, but I finally did it. Look for me sometime. I'm not on much, but when I am...I am. Look for Nebay. I haven't made any friends yet, but I'm trying. i'm still trying to figure everything out. After that I headed over to Joe's for Labour Day. I nommed some of his mom's amazing burgers, and just chilled. Around 7 I picked up Tay, and we headed back up to "The Boro." Nothing notable happened either today or yesterday except for the little gastrointestinal trouble I had on Tuesday. I was feeling queasy on and off all day. After classes were over I slept it off. There aren't going to be many posts coming up. I'm only going to post what I found interesting in any one day. If nothing remarkble happened then you don't have to hear about it. Hoorah for y'all. Well, this little bird is going to hit the nest, so I'll see y'all eventualy. G'night. And How Does That Make You Feel?  Chill Auditory Accompaniment Just Communication - Two Mix |

| Incredibly long post about some epic events. |

This should be a long post, but we'll see. Let's go back, way back to Saturday, Work was pretty weird. The two notable things were the shotgun shit and the gift card lady. The shotgun shit was when a little kid took an explosive shit all over a wall in the men's room. It was everywhere! But wait, it gets even nastier. Andy, the M.O.D, didn't clean it up. He just sprayed pine-sol everywhere. He was using cleaning it as leverage to make Adrian get one credit card application. If Adrian didn't get one, he'd have to rid the walls of the dookie. That was a bluff of course, but it was kinda funny at the time. The other weird thing was the gift card lady. She was walking around the store grabbing any used, empty gift cards to add to her collection. She claimed to have over 3200 cards in her collection. She asked for one each of our latest gift cards since she didn't have them yet. If you picture Professor Trelawney, but 3 times crazier, that's what she looked like. It was funny. Now we move on to Tay's birthday party. It was exciting as hell! We chilled, got stupid, ate pizza, checked out some videos on the intarwebs, and had some...interesting discussions. The most notable of which being that everyone is part of me, and that everyone is comprised of 7 Rachels. There's a long string of connections that make so little sense that they made perfect sense. I also met Pete there. Pete's pretty cool. I have no problems with him and totally approve of Pete x Tay. (Big brother moment) Around 2:30 we left Amy's for Eat 'N Park. We chilled there, then I drove Pete home. He lives in Midway, which is in the middle of butt-fuck nowhere. We managed to get home then back without Karen or any problems. Then I dropped off Joe and Tay. I got home around 5:15 in the morning. I had to work at noon Sunday, but with little sleep and a lot of activity before hand I called off. I woke up at 11:00 to call-off, and I never went back to sleep. I had to clean up the living room. I finally took down the Christmas tree, and placed all the boxes and shit in the Christmas cupboard. I then went over to my Grandma's house to put together a table for her living room. We also ate dinner there. Monday was the Macbeth field trip. We went to first period then off to Pitt for the performance. It was a condensed performance acted out by 3 people in Shakespearian style: limited props, bare stage, contemporary clothes worn by the actors, and actors playing multiple parts. It was really good. While we waited for the busses to arrive, a fight broke out between two students Jessie and Akheem. Jessie is white and Akheem black. That comes into play later. Apparently, they were arguing all day, and for some reason they decided to sit next o each other. While one of them was trying to get up, he bumped into the other, and a fight broke out. When it finally ended Jessie screwed himself over by yelling, "Fuck you nigger!" That really fucked him over because instead if it being a fight with a simple fine and suspension, it's a hate crime with steeper punishments. For lunch we went to the mall where I bought George Carlin's book trio An Orgy of George. It contains his three books Brain Drippings, Napalm and Silly Putty, and When Will Jesus Bring the Pork Chops?, plus some new stuff. The book is huge. After school I took a shower and got ready for the Celtic Woman concert. The concert was at 7:30, and before that I had to pick up Joe and hit the Post office to pick up my costume for Tekko. I left around 6:00, and the whole time I was rushing around. We hit the post office where there was a huge line. Luckily, one of the clerks asked if anyone was just picking stuff up. Only myself and one other guy were, so I got out of there pretty fast. We got down there and finally found the East Lot, where we were supposed to park. We got in; found our seats, which were pretty nice; and saw an awesome concert. They sang beautifully, and did a number of excellent songs. Around 9:30 they ended with a big song, and as we were prepared to leave, we heard the best announcement ever, "We will have a 20 minute intermission then continue the concert." We got some nachos then caught the rest of the show. It was amazing. We waited about 15 minutes in the parking lot waiting to get out then spent about 45 getting home. We got lost on the way home. We found the hotel we're staying at for AC, and made our way to the convention center. From there we headed to Station Square and then home. We got back around 11:30. I tried on my costume for Tekko, and aside from a little bit of snugness around the shoulders and ass, the costume fits fine. It's beautifully made, and pretty damn accurate. I was so tired from all those events the past few days that I slept through my obscenely loud alarm set to Shut Me Up by MSI. Since my mom can't drive because of her surgery; I missed school...again. I really didn't want to since today was the big CHS Chem test. I don't even know if it's possible to make it up. I'm fucked! I worked an un-eventful 4:30 to close. Tomorrow I have an Astronomy and Physics presentations to give. I also have work from 4:30 to close. I have a lot of missed work and tests to make up. Well, this birdy has to go to school tomorrow, so I'm gonna hit the nest. Good night y'all. See you eventually.

I wasn't in school again today. I've missed so much school lately it'll be a miracle if I get anything higher than a C on my report card this nine weeks. People must think I'm dead or something. Anyhow, this time it was because I had to run errands for my mom, since she can't drive anywhere. I had to do it during school hours because right after school I had to work until we closed, so I had no other time to do it. She needed groceries. She isn't allowed to eat various types of foods for a while, and all we had here she couldn't eat. Because of that I ran to the store for food for her and to also get some stuff for me.
Trent's car broke down, so I had to drive him to work today. It was a good thing we worked the same times or he's be S.O.L. Work was pretty un-eventful up until we closed. Remember how a few days ago we had to move all that shit off the floors because they were cleaning them? Well, they didn't show up, so we did it again tonight. If they don't show up tonight I'm gonna go Tonya Harding on them. ^.^
Tomorrow I work from 12:00 until 7:30 then I head straight for Amy's house for Tay's birthday party. Trent closes, so he'll be along later. The think that's pissing me off is that tomorrow will be my third straight day with Bob being M.O.D (Manager on Duty). I can't take it! grrr... It's creepy what he knows, and how he follows every little guideline like asking, "What can I help you find today?" instead of just asking, "Can I help you?" He also knows everything we have, are sold out of, don't carry, and other shit no matter how obscure. He's so happy! He even sings along to the shitty kids music over the speakers. That and he's a stickler for rules. What most M.O.Ds would let slide he yells at for. Oh well, he is the store manager after all. There's nothing higher than him in the store.
Well, this little birdy is gonna hit the nest pretty soon. I have quite the day tomorrow. Good night y'all. See you eventually. And How Does That Make You Feel?  calm |

| 10 Kinds of Epic! |
|
|
03:42pm 20/07/2007 |
|
| |
Yesterday, a bunch of us went to see the new Transformers movie up at the Mills. It was Myself, Joe, and Addison in my car; Rieber and Adam Gaydas in Rieber's car; and Kirsten ( peachonherlips) and Barbie (Tim) in Barbie's car. On the way we picked up Theresa, so my car gained a fourth. We got to the mall, found the theater, and bought out tickets. When we got to the theater there was no one there. We had the place to ourselves! Or we did until 3 others came in, but that didn't matter because we outnumbered them by almost 3 to 1. If you count Addison and Joe as 1.5 people each than we win. The movie was 10 kinds of epic all rolled into one giant nerd-gasm! I especially loved how the two most hard-ass characters were paired up in the end: the army guy with the baby and Ironhide. *spoiler warning* My only real complaint was with the fact that Jazz was killed. Jazz was awesome. *end spoiler warning* (not much of a spoiler, but I don't want to get bitched at) After that, we ate Chinese at the food court and did a little shopping. Kirsten bought Twilight Princess for the Lame Cube, Theresa bought a little purple plaid mini-skirt and a birthday present for Shelly, and I bought a Triforce pin and a birthday present for Shelly. Rieber and Adam Gaydas left arounf 1745 to head home, and we waited until 1830 when rush hour was over. Right before we left I bought a Lewis Black CD. I love Lewis Black. We trucked it to AJ's (Theresa's BF) to drop off Theresa then headed home. Today was pretty boring. Nothing to report, but tomorrow, however, is Shelly's birthday party. That's gonna be a blast! Anywho, this little bird has to go mow the lawn, so I'll talk to y'all at a later date and/or time. Peace! And How Does That Make You Feel?  working Auditory Accompaniment I am Gothic - Spray |

Good morning everyone! (It's morning somewhere) In the period of time since my last post not much has happened. On the 29th I went to a large multi-birthday party. The party was for Addison's two sisters, Midori and Hannah; one of Dori's friends; and somebody else. It was held at the local pool. Addison, Joe, and I just chilled talking about DnD most of the time. I ran into Dom at the party, and despite what Nick and Addison said, he did not move to Florida or go to college. We ate and swam (not at the same time) then I took Joe home. Fast-forward to Sunday when I went up to see Kirsten. We spend a chunk of time at her work (McDonald's) hanging out with various peoples and stuff. After a while we walked to the park and chilled there for a while. Then we went back to her house and ate dinner. It was really good! After that we picked up one of her friends and went to her house on the premise of swimming. Due to lack of parental supervision. (and the fact that her parents are waaayyy too over-protective) Around 8 I left for home. It turns out it's much easier to get home from her house then it is to get to her house. Today, I took mom up to gram's house and dropped her off then came home. Tomorrow, I have to pick up Meatbag Trent at his house then we all truck it over to Addison's mom's house for DnD at 1. It's gonna be a marathon session since Joe plans on going until 8pm, which is pretty long for us.We're going to finish up this labyrinth tomorrow, then we can integrate Trent in. Speaking of DnD, I have to create a one-shot for AnthroCon. AC is on Thursday, which means that I have 2 days to make one up. Well, technically 2 days but in reality I only have one day since I'm busy all day tomorrow. And How Does That Make You Feel?  rushed Auditory Accompaniment Information - Lewis Black |

Right now you should be reading about the awesome time I had at the zoo on Sunday. Well, you can't read about it because it didn't happen. The time was pushed back from 10:30am to 9:30am, and because of that I was unable to get a ride there. Ya see, my mom had a date that she was going to after she dropped me off at Kirsten's house. Since the time was moved back an hour, she claimed that she couldn't drive me up because she then wouldn't have enough time to shower. Normally, I would understand, but her date was to go walking with some guy. She would end up all sweaty and stanky anyway, so why bother cleaning yourself up just to get messy again? Because of that I am unable to tell you about the zoo, so instead I will tell you about Stang's Grad party which, I originally was unable to go to. At first, I was unable to go because my mom said that she would only drive me to the zoo or Stang's party, not both, so obviously, I chose the zoo so I could hang out with Kirsten. What seemed to slip my mind was that voco_letum was going, and he has a car. He also didn't know how to get there. Thus I then had a ride. We got there and hung out for a while. Shelly was there and I was glad to see her. I hadn't seen her in a while. There were a whole bunch of people there. There was Shelly, (who had to leave early because she had work in the morning) Stanley, Me, Voco, Chrissy, Chelsea, (who was only there for a little while) Paul, Ryan, Nick, and German. We spent most of the party playing Halo as usual.By the end of the party only Voco, myself, Nick, and Stan were left. We stayed up pretty late, (except for Voco) and did some co-op Gears of War/ Watch Sphere. After that we sacked out. The morning came and Stan, I, Nick, and Stang sat and bull-shitted about random things until we booted up Halo again. (Notice a theme here?) around 10:45 Nick and Stang left to go play airsoft leaving Stan, Voco, and I in Stang's house. Stan and I beat Gears of War then the 3 of us hung out down in the basement. We got hungry so we all went to Eat n' Park and grabbed some breakfast. When we arrived we found out it was Father's Day. We sat and ate, and Stanley paid. (I have to remember to pay him back) After that we parted ways and Voco and I headed back to my house. He played Oblivion while I went on the computer. At 10 that night the Star Wars Robot Chicken special came on, so we watched that. Afterwards, I got a hankering for some Guitar Hero II so I picked it up and began playing. Voco wanted to try so I gave him a crack at it. At first he sucked as hard as Kirsten did, but after a little while he got the hang of it. We went back and forth for a while then he played Oblivion and I went to sleep. (If you haven't figured it out already, he spent the night) I woke up to the sound of him playing Oblivion some more. He's been doing that all day and I've been off doing various things. I mowed the lawn, took out the trash, played some Star Wars Battlefront II, watched Smoking Aces, and took a nap. Tomorrow I have to mow Nick's gram's lawn, take a shower, and pick up some cash for Kennywood from my gram. And How Does That Make You Feel?  content Auditory Accompaniment Madness 6 - cheshyre |

| The Weekend of Epic-ness |
|
|
11:38pm 11/06/2007 |
|
| |
Well, I think this weekend qualifies as epic. What do y'all think? Let's begin with Friday. Around noon Graham, Addison, Joe, and I got together at my house for DnD. We did some more dungeon delving and fought an Umber Hulk. Nothing too epic, but that's just a small part of the weekend. After DnD ended, voco_letum came down and picked me up. We were heading up to his house. During the trip it was storming and I couldn't get enough. As I waited for him to arrive I just chilled out in the rain. It was great. I love storms. Anyhow, on the way to Voco's house we hit up Beaver Valley Mall and I picked up a copy of Pulp Fiction for $10 at FYE. Voco got the complete .hack//SIGN series on a 6 DVD set. We made it back to his house, ate some hot-dogs, and settled in to watch .hack. I believe we made it through disk 2 before we went to sleep. Saturday: we woke up, I made dippy eggs and toast, and we watched more .hack. Later on during the day some friends of his called and invited us to play DnD with them. By that time we were somewhere in disk 4. We headed over to Dave's house and I watched Travis, Nate and Dave play Magic: The Gathering. After that, we headed up to Nate's little lake-house-thingy and started DnD. It was a 13th level, Evil, gestalt campaign. I was Rogue/Duskblade. I kind of wish I had more time to prepare because I was shafted magical items wise. Everyone else had some insane shit and I was mediocre. (compared to them) We played until either Midnight or 1AM, then we dropped Dave off, and headed home. I was too damn tired so we just sacked out instead of watching some more .hack. Sunday came and I woke up before Voco, so I sat and read my book Mistress of the Catacombs by David Drake. I got him up around 10:50, he got dressed, and we left for my house. Arriving home, I found Nate (it's a different Nate) in my junk room. I didn't have much time to chat since I had to mow his Gram's lawn. I had to be fast since I had Issac's party to go to. I didn't even have enough time to shower. All I could do was change and leave. We used MapQuest to find Issac's house since I'd never been there before. It was horrible. It took us to the middle of Butt Fuck Nowhere, and eventually to a road that my mom knew. It turns out that there was an easier, and quicker, way to get to his house that my mom already knew. Fucking MapQuest! I arrived at Issac's house and we played video games until about, oh I'd say midnight. Then we broke out the swords and shields and had ourselves a brawl. His family is part of the SCA, so they had all kinds of foam weapons for us to beat each other senseless with. We traded blows and weapons for quite some time. My weapon of choice was the Heavy Mace. Around 1 or so, some of us sat down to watch a bootlegged 300 while the rest of us fought. We were relying on the light in the barn to see, and when it was turned off for the movie we used those little shitty glow bracelets to see. Pitch black fighting is truly epic! Even though none of us were wearing armor and we rarely used the 2 shields, only 2 injuries were sustained. The first injury was caused when the Judge's staff, a large staff padded at both ends that looks like a giant baton, was thrown javelin-style at my head. It caught me square on the chin and cut it open. It bled for quite a while. Despite that I kept fighting. The other injury occurred when Nietsae (I can't spell his name but it's pronounced like "Neat-say") was nailed in the balls. He just fell over and lied down for a while. After brawling for a while, Nietsae began dueling us one on one. Only swords were used and we essentially fenced by the rules. He's very good. I was the second-best there. By 4, I was ready to go sleep, but Issac was being a meatbag, and saying shit like who ever was the first asleep got fucked with. Even though Nietsae was first asleep I still didn't trust Issac's immature ass. They pranked, or tried to prank, everyone except me. Apparently, according to Steve and Marty, they were afraid to prank me because I was the biggest one there, and I could beat them up. Ha! That's funny! I couldn't beat up a middle schooler without some kind of unfair advantage. I'm pathetic. Either way, it saved me from pranking. I fell asleep around 6:30 or so and woke up at 10:00. I read some more and then headed into the house to see where everyone else was. They were all either still asleep or in the living room. We watched some T.V. while Issac made pancakes, then I packed up my shit and headed home. I was supposed to get picked up my my mom at noon at Issac's house. She called and said to meet her on the one street that she knew that was on the way to his house, so I walked from Issac's house, down his long ass driveway/private road, down the street, (which was quite long) then right onto another street, where I waited at the intersection for mom. It took me about 30 minutes to walk there which, normally wouldn't be too bad except for the fact that I was running on 4 hours of sleep and was a little sore from the brawling and sleeping on the floor for the past 3 nights. Mom arrived about 2-3 minutes after me, and we headed to A&W so she could use the bathroom and we could grab some lunch. The Bath Fitter guy came today and was installing the new tub, so the water was off and the bathroom off-limits until he was complete. We ate at A&W then went home. At 1, I headed over to Graham's house with Addison and Nick and we played DnD. I won't go into many details, so to keep it short, my character died, we did the impossible, and our Beguiler suicide-bombed the enemy twice and was quickly resurrected each time. (much to Joe's disdain) After that I went home, and nothing else interested happened. Tomorrow, I have to wake up at 8:30 so we can leave and pick up Kirsten at her house, She's spending the day here, and we're watching the original Star Wars trilogy. You know, the good ones, Episodes IV, V, and VI. After that we're just gonna chill and hang out. I can't wait. And How Does That Make You Feel?  tired Auditory Accompaniment Touch Me - Gunther feat.

It has been confirmed, I got a 92% B on my Anat/Phys final! Wooooo!!! One final down, six to go! Tomorrow is Regional Studies, Computers, and Chemistry. I'm worried about Chemistry, so I'll definitely be studying tonight. Regional Studies will be a breeze. Mr. Phillips even said this final will take no more then 15 minutes. Timmy's final in computers will be even easier. All I have to do is type a letter in word, create a one page newsletter in publisher, and make a chart in access. Speaking of Anatomy class, we had our party today. Unfortunately, I was unable to get to the store last night so we had no beverages. What we did have was cookie cake, cup cakes, and taquitos. No one really liked the taquitos. I brought in my Wii, but we only had one Wii-mote since I couldn't contact Courtney, the only other person that goes to my school and has a Wii, so she couldn't bring hers. I did however bring two Lame-Cube controllers and some of my games. I never even set up the Wii. We helped Mrs. Morris pack up her room, and anyway, her T.V. was busted. We still had fun. I found a little plastic medal during locker cleanup that said "Winner" on one side and had a star on the other side. It was on a ribbon. I gave it to Mrs. Morris since, in my opinion, she wins at school. I'm gonna miss her. I pretty much spent the rest of the day down in the G.A.T.E room. Addison and I finally beat Mrs. A in Trivial Pursuit. We're now tied with one win a piece. We're gonna break the tie tomorrow, for good or for ill. As of this moment, there are only two half-days left of school.I just have to last until Friday. Also, there are only 29 days left until AnthroCon! I'm so excited!

I got a B on my Anatomy/Physiology final! At least I think I did. I missed 4 on the back, giving me a 96% which is an A, and I know i missed at least 2 if not more on the front. Not much more though. If i miss 2 on the front I get a 94% A! If I miss between 3 and 8 on the front I still get a B. I'm pretty sure I didn't miss more than 4 on the front, but who knows. Based on what answers I remember and assumptions, I strongly believe that I got a B. I'm happy as fuck! Since the Anat/Phys final is over, the 75min tomorrow that we'd have to take it will be replaced with a party. Depending on whether or not we have a T.V., I may bring in my Wii. Either way I have to bring in pop and cups. Tomorrow is going to be insane! First period is the party, second is a blow off period where I'll either read my new book or sleep, third is a review for the computer final, I'm spending lunch down in the G.A.T.E room playing Trivial Pursuit with Addison and Mrs. Andrasko, five-six is another review as is seven-eight, ninth I'm going back down to the G.A.T.E room, and tenth I'm either staying in the G.A.T.E room or watching Star Wars in the cooking room. Tomorrow will truly be epic! I was watching the video for the Ekkosangen today, (again) and I was wondering why they changed the name from Cilit Bang to Easy Off Bam when they ported it to the U.S.A. What's wrong with Cilit Bang? Or are they two different products endorsed by the same man. The commercials are eerily similar, and they both end with the catchphrase, "Bam, and the dirt is gone!" Maybe I'm over-analyzing. Maybe I'm crazy. Maybe the rest of the world is fucked up and I'm the normal one...nah!

I'm back from practicing my parking. I have such a tiny back window, it's no fun. Despite that, I believe that I did pretty well. After that, we (my mom and I) went to get something to eat. Normally I'd be all happy, but while I was out I missed 3 calls. (I left my phone at home) 2 were from Kirsten and one was from Stang. All 3 of them said to come up because they were watching movies and having an impromptu party. I didn't find out about this until around 8:30pm and when I tried to call I got Kirsten's voice mail. It was to late to drive up to Wexford anyway. My mom wouldn't have done it. Now I'm pissed because if I hadn't dicked around after practice, I wouldn't have missed the calls, and I could've partied. God damn you Linda! It's all your fault! (For those of you confused, anytime something goes wrong we blame it on Linda Weaver, the English Teacher. She's a bitch, so it's all her fault when something goes wrong) So now, I have nothing to do but watch T.V. and study for my Anat/Phys final. I should be doing that anyway but hell, I could've been quizzed by someone at the party. Grrr... At least the food was good...

| The Weekend |
|

This weekend was great! I can't remember Friday, so I'll begin with Saturday. Saturday, Nick managed to get his mom to drive him down from New Ken which was surprising. She usually wants to meet in Wexford, but I couldn't because of all the driving I did last weekend. Anyway, Nick got driven down and we hung out for a while then voco_letum came down and we played SSBM. He's pretty good, but not as good as me. heh I'm just kidding. Him and nick are both better than me. So, as Voco was coming we were planing on going to see PotC3. We found the times and He, Nick, and I went to see the 10:00pm showing. The movie was real good. I didn't think I'd get what was going on since I still haven't seen the first or second ones yet, but I followed it pretty well. I loved all the Jacks in Davy Jones' Locker. They were great! We got back around 1:30am and just watched Mythbusters until we fell asleep. Sunday came and it was the day of Stang's Halo Party. We were told to arrive at 2:00pm. We got there around 2:05 or so, and his mom said he went out to lunch. We killed time by playing frisbee in his back yard with a demo CD for some on-line PS2 game. After about 10mins my girlfriend Kirsten got there and she joined out 3-way frisbee game. Horay for 4-ways! After a while Stang got home and the party began. It was supposed to be an Airsoft party so Stang brought out his gun and was showing it to us. We went out back since he had some really old bottles of Diet Mountain Dew so we shook them up and shot them. Unfortunately, we didn't have a gun strong enough to puncture the bottles so we just smashed them with bricks. It was fun! We then started to just battle out in Stang's yard and I grabbed Nick and used him as a meat-shield. He's pretty effective. After all that chaos we ate pizza and chilled out on the porch. Kirsten brought out her old, broken PS2 and we smashed that up real good. I like destroying things. We went back inside, shot each other some more, and played Halo. By that time here were quite a few people there: Stand, his girlfriend who's name escapes me, Me, Nick, Voco, Kirsten, Dom, Kiba, and Ryan. At 10:00pm, Kirsten had to leave and around 1:00 Stang's girl friend left. Ryan left short after. The night wound down as Kiba Played WoW, Nick, Dom, and I played the Halo 3 Beta, and Alex and Voco Slept. Monday rolls around, and we play more Halo until my mom picks us up at 1:00pm. We head home, Nick's mom picks him up, and Voco and I watch That 70's Show. He's got a flat so we go to use Fix-a-Flat but the nozzle cracks and it sprays everywhere, except for in the tire. Since the tire still has a hole we have to change it. We had everything but the jack, which was stuck in Voco's trunk. We couldn't get it out. So, I went into my trunk and got out that jack. I learned how to change a tire! We got the tire changed, but it only had 15psi in it so we had to get air for it. We went down to the BP and their air pump was broken. Not daunted from our task, we trucked it down to the Exxon down the way. We get there and, of course, their pump is broken as well. We drive up the road and pull into the Get Go where, unlike the BP, their air costs money. I went and got change, we filled up the tire and, since we were there, got gas as well. After that, at my suggestion, we stopped at Rita's for some ice cream. We sat and discussed science, anthros, and the like while we ate. Home again, we plopped in front of the TV to watch a special on the History Channel on the inspiration and pilosophical...dealies...of Star Wars. It was pretty good, what I saw of it. I kept falling asleep. It was close to 11:00pm after all, and I didn't get much sleep at Stang's. It ended and we started to watch a special on the technology of Star Wars and how close we were to attaining it. After a little bit Voco left and I sacked out. It was a great weekend!
