i once wrote that the astros were going to be good but clearly they are not. its a damn shame. the new general manager is a dip shit. whats his name. tim purpura. he needs to go. no playoffs. but a world series appearence last year was fun, no thanks to purpura.
i have been doing a lot of nothing. i dont really feel good about it. i think a lot about possiblities and other things like how to make some money and buy land. like truck driving. thats good money. i also would like to get into river boarding more. its like boogie boarding except not in the ocean. i like boogie boarding also. i had a dream where i got some major toobage and was totally stoked in my dream. i also tried to steal a very old dlamp in a bay area but dont remember if it was successful. in hindsight i needed a submarine or something. theres proabably a lot of cool shit at the bottom of the san francisco bay. they have a good underwater archaeology program at texas a and m of all places. i think about that sometimes but not often. i also am applying for jobs in the national park service but its rediculous. like 146 people apply for one job. wtf. its not even that sweet a job. well it sort of is. you get to wear a gun. and get people to respect the land.
old people are crochety. they say theres no culture. that is awesome. i totally get it. but seriously get over yourself.
has anybody played that table tennis game on xbox360. i think it looks pretty fun. i tried to play it at best buy once but it wasn't working.
i turned 24 last week. how did that happen?? i went to a bar called Sam's Boat with 13 dollars and got mildly drunk on miller lite. i talked to two pretty hot girls that were cool. one was had a degree in furniture making. i told her about a treasure chest i made in 8th grade woodshop that had a secret compartment and she said she was all about secret compartments. that was cool. she was moving to new york in a few weeks. the nursing student lived in austin. she was magically babelicious and had a really soft, quite voice. i couldnt really make out anything she said most of the time. there was a really bad band playing that night whose lead singer played an electric violin. lame.
i really like to watch movies before i go to sleep. i sort of alternate between reading and watching movies. i am into robert b. parker books. i can plow through a 300 pager in a night.
i miss college libraries though. or rather libraries in general. maybe i should move close to a good library. the library at ucdavis was good but not great. they didnt have any comfortable old 70s furniture to read in. i like the library at texas a and m better. i guess i just miss college all together.
i keep imagining that i can write books but i dont know if i can or not. I need to be more decisive.
ive been thinking about moving to las vegas. it seems pretty cheap and you can get substituting jobs that pay 90 a day. move into a furnished 1 bedroom. work on a book about duces wild poker. im considering moving to reno as well. close to skiing in the winter. rivers and lake in summer. a nice fireplace maybe. cook high quality meals. i guess i like the idea of living in nevada. i couldn't exactly pinpoint a reason why but it seems pretty laid back. centrally located in the west.
maybe i should just drive out west and see what happens. put some gas debt on the old credit card and hang out, visit some people, do some camping, go to the beach, eat good mexican, go to in and out. i think maybe i need to drive or get a new bike and ride around or whatever. it has been below 80 degrees at night for at least 3 months. i need to get over that shit. allright.
anyway. if you're still reading, cool. we should hang out or something, i'll buy you a beer.
