I went to see Green Day yesterday, and it was Green AWESOME! (yes, I am working on that one). My only complaint: I was told there would be a naked lead singer. He offered. Follow through, dude. Follow through *g* I was so glad to see that concert. First tape I ever bought? Green Day. I had to explain to my parents that "Parental Advisory" ( Read more... )

Work school work school. It's all I do. Yesterday, today, and tomorrow I go to school, and from there I go directly to work until 12:30am. I then cram in 5 hours of sleep and repeat.

Hidey ho from the land of work and school! Sorry to be so very not around, but as soon as this course is over (essay Friday, Final the following Friday) I'll be able to once again enjoy the summery goodness, which tends to include me sitting on my couch watching TV, surfing the net, and doing a really good impression of a slug. And reading people' ( Read more... )

The day before yesterday I went out to a club . . . classy place [/sarcasm], and had one of those, "didn't go home before work" nights. So me, in my tired and mildly hungover state, at work, and who should show? CREEPY FRY GUY. GAH! Does he have a radar?

. . . cause, like, WTF.

So I spent a lot of the day watching the news (trust CNN to turn bombings in another country into an American issue . . "and now to Washington where nothing is happening").
