the driveas i mentioned already, we were late to leave on thursday night. suprise. i drove most of the time, so we listened to my cd's. when dad drove, we put on my beatles mp3, and it skipped. like hell. i need an mp3 player that doesn't suck. we only almost died two or three times. we stopped about lake city or so. the first hotel was kinda ( Read more... )

as some of you (alanna) may have noticed, i haven't been around much lately. shortly after christmas, my computer shorted out, pretty much for good this time. the power supply is basically toast. i might be able to scrounge a new(er) one off peppy at some point, but who knows how long that'll last. it's not the only thing wrong with my computer ( Read more... )

hurricane wilmawilma, a category 2 at the time, hit us with unexpected ferocity. we were without news access for a while, and asleep when it hit, so we didn't really know what was going to happen. in a strange turn of events, it took the incredibly improbably average projected path, and cut across this county diagonally from the southwest corner to ( Read more... )

one, two, possibly three new jobs.petra got me a job at her workplace, eAuction Cafe. it's an ebay store, and i'm the new photographer. i started today, trained a bit. figuring it out pretty quickly. i've found that the automatic control is photoshop are generally useless except under very specific conditions. with the white backdrop, it's simpler ( Read more... )

this is gonna take multiple headings, again.

waking and sleepingmy sleep schedule got really fucked for a while there. i was breifly on a rotating 36 hour schedule, since i had nothing better to do. then one night i fell asleep in my clothes, in my bed, and spent six to eight hours having nightmare after nightmare. the last one was the sleep ( Read more... )

today = frustrating.

i had to pry the car away from my mom, and get dad to drive her ass around so i could:

1. just barely make it precision to get REALLY fast film
   
2. miss phyllis at her place
   
3. go to wood shop and give up on my propject due tomorrow because it sucks.
   
4. talk to aforementioned girl in my wood class and get her number, with the idea we'd hang ( Read more... )

thirty-two hourstoday isn't really a day of its own, merely an extension of yesterday. lately, i've been waking up feeling like i picked a fight with a mack truck. i find this funny because i don't drink. ironic-funny, i mean, not haha-funny. i go to sleep feeling alright, and wake up sore with a headache. maybe i lead some crazy double life at ( Read more... )

a girl talked to me today. out of her own volition. always catches me off gaurd: i'm kind of used to being invisible to the opposite sex. high school sure did a number on me, didn't it ( Read more... )

for the record, spider-man 2 is a good movie, no matter what quinn says. the bruce campbell cameo was funny, as was the doc ock operation scene that was shot-for-shot evil dead 2. (why would an emergency room have a chainsaw, anyways?)

anywho. more on that later.
i had a strange dream the other night. well, two strange dreams. the first one, i was ( Read more... )

last night, something good happened. i had put away one of my cd's a few years back, with a little mental flag to not bother listening to it again, just the mp3's or the vinyl, because the cd had gotten scratched. now this cd, nin's the fragile, is possibly my favourite album, and it works wonders as far as getting me to sleep. usually i don't last ( Read more... )
