I tried to go to the CD/Game Exchange yesterday to get the new Matchbox Twenty CD. It was one minute to 8 and they closed at 8. I got the door opened about halfway and the guy came out, said they were closed, and shut it in my face. Grr ( Read more... )

I really need to thank nikhedonia for the choice advice he gave me tonight, and I need to thank the rest of you for being there for me all the time. You kick ass ( Read more... )

One more doc idea and then I promise I won't talk about my thesis until October 4, the day I present my idea (PS: after I present my school friends and I are going out drinking. We have already decided ( Read more... )
