some couple outside my apartment is screaming at each other. like, not just yelling, but screaming louder than i've ever heard people scream. i think they're a couple blocks away actually, which makes the whole scenario even more disconcerting.
riding home in the rain and the dark and getting lost turned out to be strangely exhilirating. i felt like a macho man, and in another burst of fixed gear pride, i was glad i just had to worry about my pedals instead of relying on wet brake pads. i'm making it a goal this year to get a lot more bike punk. my other goals for this year include getting really into faith no more and designing my own major. clearly, its going to be a big year.
i haven't updated this thing in months. basically, i travelled for a couple weeks, then i sat around my parents house for two weeks or so, and then i came back to charlottesville where i trained for two weeks to become a bus driver and now i'm going to school and driving a bus and feeling very glad to be back in this town. being back in school is somewhat disconcerting, but i suppose its where i should be right now. i really like this town, even with all its very obvious faults. once the bmx gang gets off the ground, it will be even better.
there was a picture the other day in the newspaper of arnold fans holding signs with terminator quotes on it, and i got really excited because i felt like the entire reason i don't get down with electoral politics could be summed up by this one picture, but now i can't find it anymore. i guess the idea is easy to grasp though.
i can't think of anything more to say about anything. a whole day of doing nothing seems to have exhausted me.
