Song: Cowboy Bebop - Rain

A few things to note, mostly just because. FedEx is AWESOME, they really are. I can be such a nerd. I still suck are RTS games. I'm a coward. Why couldn't I have done more. I'm not a complete waste. My new keyboard is really nice. I want the Ayeron CD. I don't like spending money. Sleep is good, but I can't get any before 3 it seems. Prog is awesome too. There are several people I don't talk to like I used to... what happened?

Song: Porcupine Tree - The Sound of Muzak

*Yawn* a little while ago I woke from a good dream, it was really odd. Several people were in it, and someone really unexpected. It took place mostly in a fair-type setting. The first thing I remember is Brian (both legs being ok) pulling out a wooden sword being all fancy and stuff, jumping around, swinging, and scaring these 2 people that walked by. After he stopped his little show he almost accidentally stabbed himself. Then I also a sword, but I didn't get to do anything fancy with it, someone stopped me before I got the chance to. Then for some reason a lot of people I knew went to my Grandma's house to eat. She had ordered pizza, which is very unlike her. All in all, it was weird and refreshing.

Song: Kansas - Carry On Wayward Son (Live)

You must check out this link, it was in an e-mail I got from Paul. I couldn't resist sharing: (it opens in a new window)

Song: Pink Floyd - Bike

I don't know if this is a good or bad thing, but with certain songs it reminds me of certain things. This is one of those songs, as with other Pink Floyd songs I remembery other things. Syd Barrett is another artist that does that to me. I think just tend to associate these songs with stuff. I guess for now it's not bad, but in the future when I hear them, it could possibly be not the best thing. That's just been on my mind a while.

Something else I thought about a little: how people spend money. In NO way do mean this to condecending or anything, just my own personal thoughts and reactions. Now that that's out of the way, there are about 4 types of people and how they spend money: people who will spend any money that they come across, people that don't spend their own money but spend their parents', people who spend their own, and people who don't spend. I'm one of the people that don't spend much money, and when I do I usually spend my own. My mom is always asking if there is anything I want, and I say no, because then she'd pay for it, which kinda makes me feel guilty. She's already paying for so much, electric bill, internet, water, food, clothes, house, and I don't think she should have to pay for me to have things just because I want them. And when I do buy stuff, which isn't tooooo often, I make sure I'll get plenty of use from it. Like with my computer, I paid for it, I bought stuff that'd last me and not hurt me financially too much. Same with CDs, when I buy them online I buy them in groups to get cheaper shipping, andmake sure that I'll like them and get $13 worth out of them. Then there are people that spend their parents' money to get things that aren't that necessary (just as an example, there are other for other people) Chris got a new car stereo system. His dad paid over a thousand (I think) for it, and Chris is going to be going into the Navy, I don't think his car stereo is going to do much good there. Granted there may be a few perfectly good reasons that his dad bought it, but I don't think I'd have gone for a car stereo system. Then there are people that are like, "If I want it, I'll buy it, I pay the bill no big deal." Bad example I know... oh well, but since they are paying for it themselves and they have the moeny to, it's ok, even if they may not get much use out of it. Cheapskates, wheee, I don't think I need to go into that. /End Rant

Wow that ended up being a lot longer than I thought it would be. Took me aout 15 minutes to write all that up, but I'm close to finishing now. Time for a few quick notes. I got my hard drive Thursday, I love it. Ordered my keyboard (the one I have is 8 years old) should be here around Tuesday. Finally cleaned my room.

Song: Spock's Beard - The 39th Street Blues (I'm Sick)

Hmm, interesting things... I can't think of any. Here we go- the thumb is so important to human dexterity that a larger portion of the brain is devoted to controlling it than to controlling the whole chest and abdomen. Now don't you feel a little smarter now?

It's hard to believe it's only been a month since graduation. On second thought, that seems like both short and forever, weird. I didn't clean anything today except for a dish so I could eat. I should get my hard drive tomorrow (meaning Friday). No offense to anyone, but I need some new people to talk to. WarCraft 3 is indeed at my Dad's house. I'm a lazy person. I'm thinking about doing that looooong survey that Rachel (H) and Claire have done, only with pictures and try to be sarcastic. Tonight as I was reading through it I thought of several funny (to me anyway) comments and possible picture ideas.

That last part had a lot of random stuff thrown in, sorry. It's getting kinda late, outta get to bed soon, *sigh*.


6/23/04, 12:45AM
Song: Aerosmith - Livin' on the Edge

My hard drive is now in the hands of FedEx. That's about it for now. Microwavable Great Value noodles are pretty good, even if you add in an extra half-cup of milk. Eww, I just saw that commericial with old people going to a party trying to sell some sort of cell phone. I think I'll clean my room tomorrow and vacuum it up. Maybe even clean my computer a little, so it's nice and clean for the new HDD.

Goodbye, too bad it couldn't have been better.


6/22/04, 12:40AM
Song: Franz Ferdinand - Take Me Out

List style yet again:

I got a haircut
Father's Day was fun
I think I'm begining to suck at computers
Hard drive should be here this week
I remembered why people shouldn't come over (no offense meant)
About 2 months left
Down to one, but still nothing
I beat Half-Life for the 4th time
gflkjghkljflkjhdlkjgrelkjerk;lbv;lk
Right now I'm feeling like I did about 2 months ago (not a good thing)

Ok, that's a short update of what's been going on, sorta.


6/18/04, 7:20PM; Paul McCartney's Birthday
Song: Emerson, Lake, and Palmer - Black Moon

Last night was Payam's LAN party, it was fun. After being there and coming home I decided I need a new hard drive. I ordered a 160GB one, it should hold for a while. I was going to apply at ClientLogic, but I talked myself out of it; both good and bad. Today was mostly spent at Payam's or sleeping, but tonight should be entertaining. Calling people on the phone that you usually just talk to online is kinda odd, but it has to be done if they aren't online. Sooo, that's about it for now, maybe a little bit more later tonight.


6/17/04, 12:15AM
Song: Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here

Time for an update of "important" stuff, in list form, it's a lot easier that way, no need for complete sentences or anything.

Finally say Donnie Darko, and liked it
Got my meningitis shot
Tomorrow (today) should be fun
Need to buy a shorter CAT 5 cable
Might finally get to see Darkside of the Rainbow
Should be watching The Goonies sometime soon
Been helping people get computer parts
My legs are hurting
Far Cry seems like a good game
A few more Thank You cards left
Turned in an application at the movie place in Wal-Mart
Been waking up earlier
Bought new sunglasses
Playing Half-Life for the 4th time
Watching Trigun for the 3rd
Uh oh, MY FAN IS ON MEDIUM
Yum yum Chili's.


6/14/04, 1:20AM
Song: Jimmy Page and Robert Plant - Wonderful One

I'm typing this up as I'm downloading a demo of the game Far Cry, I've heard it's pretty good. The file is 531 MB, so it's taking a while to download. Let's see, what's been going on... been helping people put together computers, umm... been sitting around a lot to. I still have yet to watch The Goonies, but that should change before too long. Got a new poster for my room, one of those magic eye things. When you look at them you see 3D images, yeah. That's about it I think.


6/11/04, 11:45PM
Song: Transatlantic - All of the Above (Stolt Mix)

Well today I got a cell phone since my Mom and Bill wanted (and needed) to renew their plans. I now have a local number, and a decent looking phone. The number is 766-1948 incase you want to add the number to your list or if you feel like calling me. After getting phones I got new tires, as many of you know, I needed new tires.

I also finally found a copy of "The Goonies" now to get some people that have never seen it to see it. Also, tomorrow I'm going to my Grandma's so I won't be around for most of the day. Ok, I'm done here. I leave you with this *Seinfeld stomach voice* Helllloooo.

I tried to make the table fit pretty good for all viewers, and if you are wondering how I made that table, you don't want to know, it was hard, and I know what I'm doing in HTML.


6/9/04, 1:00AM
Song: Yes - Show Me

I love this song. I wish I could find the lyrics to it, but I can't. It seems like no one has a copy of the movie "The Goonies," if you have it, and are reading this please tell me if I can borrow it. Me not updating is because I stay up too late playing games now, I don't want to update this at 3 or 4 in the morning, so I don't. Umm... I think I'm going to learn to play Myxomatosis by Radiohead on my guitar. I ran today, yay. Not for very long, and it made me feel weird afterward. I've been sitting at home the past few days playing games like Serious Sam, StarCraft, Diablo 2, Quake 3: Arena, some good 'ol games from WEP, and even EXTREME PONG (yay). My eyes are starting to hurt, probably from the computer monitor. This is going to sound really nerdy, and I don't know why I'm saying it here, but I'm going to be buying (probably) this keyboard for my computer's birthday (July 3rd). Yeah... I'm lame like that. I'll even make comments for this, yay. Oh! today I also had my 3rd pretty big religion talk online, just thought I'd note that.

Song: Steve Vai - Whispering a Prayer

I can't sleep very well at night. I try to sleep, but my mind wanders too much. I wake up in the middle of the night, mind wandering still. And when I do finally wake up to get out of bed, my mind is still wandering. I'm not sure how to go about fixing this... Nothing much has been going on since I last posted, been playing some more StarCraft, watching more movies, and listening to more music while sitting here at my computer all day long. I really should get out.

I did get out a little yesterday. I went to Sunfest for about 10 minutes to get a Funnel Cake, yummmm.


6/4/04, 11:55PM
Song: Gentle Giant - Knots

I think this entry is just going to be a list of some thoughts.

In one month the second best holiday will be here, the 4th of July.
School is over, I need to forget about it.
I've got at most 2 weeks to decide.
I need my wisdom teeth out, but that won't happen for a while.
I need to write thank you notes.
The last few days have been boring.
There are some movies I want/need to see.
Running, hah.
I now have 512 MB of RAM, yay.
Going through old saved files can be fun, and re-enlightening.
I can't wait til college.


6/2/04, 11:00PM
Song: Neal Morse - It's All I Can Do

Yesterday was Karl's LAN party, it was fun, I've gotten better at a few of the games, but still not close to some of the other people.

Today was pretty boring, after I woke up I went and got my diploma. I got a hold for a book to be rebound, I have no idea which book. My books were all in pretty good condition, I think they just wanted to try and get some money from me, at least once out of the 4 years.

After that I went to help someone with computer problems just to find out the phone line itself was messed up. Oh well, I got some money out of it. Since then I've stayed in the house.

Tomorrow I have to go to the dentist, and after that I'll probalby head out to my dad's. I have more graduation cards out there to open. Going to bed before 1 tonight. Bye.

Song: Fates Warning - Life in Still Water

Today (yesterday) was fun; Movies and more movies, people and more people. This summer is going to be a little different than any other summer. People leaving and all. At Jayme's tonight it hit me, it's not too likely I'll be seeing her this summer. It's life.

Newegg.com is being annoying, they aren't letting me order 2 sticks of RAM, only 1, I tried for about an hour earlier today.

And the next few days are indeed going to be busy. LAN tomorrow (today), and Wednesday maybe mini-golf or something, and then to my Dad's.
