Well, its been nearly two years and I think its time to throw in my towel. I'm going to keep this journal as more or less of a quote book now from nights with the guys or anything I hear and/or say that isn't tooo horribly context sensitive and humorous. I think all my writing will be in my offline journal that I've been keeping from here on, so I have something to look back on that isn't online. Thanks to everyone who's been a friend over the past few years, those new and old. It's been an honor being friends with most of you. I hate long good byes, so Goodbye. Keep in touch. |

| Well, seems that Production I.G. thought the public liked Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex enough (in japan) that instead of 24 episodes, they're putting out 52 (or is it 54.. something like that) and they've apparently got a deal with Bandi entertainment to bring the nice shiny series to DVD here in north america. *drool* so... good... must...find..more... | ||||

Don't be aroused By my confession Unless you don't give a good godamn about redemption I know Christ is coming and so am I You would too if the sexy devil caught your eye She'll suck you dry Soon you'll cry to be back in her bosom To do it again She'll make you weep And moan and cry to be back in her bosom To do it again Pray, should I oblige? Pray, cause nobody ever survives Praying to stay in your arms Just until I can die a little longer Saviors and saints Devils and demons alike She'll eat you alive Jesus is risen, it's no surprise Even he would, martyr his momma To ride to hell between those thighs The pressure is building, at the base of my spine If I gotta sin to see her again Then I'm gonna lie and lie and lie She'll make you cry I'll sell my soul to be back in your bosom And gladly help, please suck me dry And still you'll cry, to be back in her bosom Do it again Pray, should I oblige? Pray, cause nobody ever survives And I'm praying to stay in her arms just until I can die a little longer Saviors and saints Devils and demons alike She'll eat you alive My pulse been rising My temples are burning The pressure is so overwhelming and building So steady and heavy, I'm ready to blow She waits, what is she waiting for? Pray, should I oblige? Pray, cause nobody ever survives Praying to stay in your arms Just until I can die a little longer Saviors and saints Devils and demons alike She'll eat you alive |

Mmm.. just picked up Trillian 2.0, and boy this baby looks slick like butter. Those who dont have it, really should (if you use more then one messaging thing... it works wonders.. I've got ICQ, MSN, Yahoo and AOL messenger all running at once, so dude, that's a lot of separate programs that you dont have to download. and if you get the nice pro version (legally and stuff *cough* you can get some really neat plugins like winamp control and stuff. In other news: Mindy, if you ever read this, why dont you try coming to ME instead of to Richard to ask if I'm still pissed off at you. Because to be honest, he knows very little about you and I, aside from the stuff on the surface. The only thing I'm pissed off about, and its not pissed off in a way.. more slightly peeved.. was that you didn't come to ask me, you decided to go to him, who no offence to him, is as dense as a block of lead. If I was pissed off at you, You would know it. Jenn is who I'm pissed off at right now, and you haven't done anything nearly on the same scale as that cock hunting bitch. |

| Yeah, that's right. I cant sleep again. I dont know what the hell's going on with me. I've not slept properly in the past three days, two out of the three I've had to take a sleeping pill to actually get to sleep and that's starting to get not good. I called dad and asked if he could set up a doctors appointment with Dr. Bishop on a Monday, so I dont have to miss class/too much class for it. But something needs to be done. I'm not sure why I'm having all this trouble sleeping.. I get (more or less) enough exercise, I eat kinda healthy (for a bachelor) and I'm not terribly stressed out about classes, as right now I'm breezing through everything with rarely a bump.. There's nothing on the 'romance-o-meter' worth noting, so any stress/sleepless nights shouldn't be coming from that, as I'm probably on the whole, better (or about the same) as I was before I met Lex and began my dating life. I just want some sleep! Is that so much to ask? I mean really | ||||||||

You know... I never realized how much of an impact that the man in black had on the music industry, and me in particular. I know I said I hate country music with a passion, but the one artist I could consistently listen to and actually enjoy was Johnny. He made a big contribution to the world with his music. We may not have him, but we have his music, which is as much a vessel for his soul as his body was. Rest In Peace Johnny Cash. Rest in peace. There'll always be memories of times spent with friends spontaneously breaking out into burnin' ring of fire. I'm glad he got to rejoin his wife. Now he can rest easy. Johnny Cash (Feb. 26, 1932--Sept. 12, 2003) |

Yes, the RIAA is at it again. And again, it sounds like another nail in the coffin. Except when I say nail, I mean rivet, and when I say coffin, I mean safe headed towards the bottom of the ocean. The control they had over music is slowly eroding away, and I personally cant be happier. I'm super gratified that they (and by they, I mean the recording companies, not RIAA) dropped the price of CD's. Hell, I went out and picked up two CD's today, and was actually pleasantly surprised by the price. I've always supported bands I liked. I pick up a couple songs, and if I dont like the band, that's all I get. If I love the band, I get the CD's. But with the RIAA launching the lawsuits on average, every-day Joe shmoe they just pissed off the one area of the community they should never piss off. The consumers. Do you THINK that they'll stand for it? Ok, sure, some did, some sucked it up and went out of their way to kiss the RIAA's ass, but some... oh I can see the battle now. Are they going to come for me? They can try. The funny thing is I own about 80% of my songs, and considering the amount of music I have, that's quite a bit. even with that 20% of unowned stuff. Instead of doing its own thing and saying 'hey, why dont we go with the flow and supply the users of the most popular (ugh) operating system an easy way to pick up songs off the internet legally, like Mac did' they went 'Money money money money FUCK YOU money money.' I personally wouldn't have a problem if they offered sample tracks from everyone, so you could see songs you wanted and so forth, then go and pick up albums off the net. Easy, quick, painless on everyones part. One day, they are going to be replaced by the very consumers that they're fucking up.. the kids. And what happens if Mr. Joe Muckity muck from back east who works for the RIAA has a daughter/son, and this offspring happily downloads music on their personal computer. What then? Is he going to stand there and laugh like an asshole while his offspring gets sued for listening to music? I'm almost willing to bet yes. No offence Jer, but I have to say this. Fucking stupid American business people. I cant say the Canadians are much better, but at least we(well, some of us at least) have a sense of honor, and support the bands we really enjoy, and would like to hear more of. If not, it goes the same way that all bands do, they disappear, or break up and form a new band, or what have you. There. One big rant out of the way, two to go. I hate insomnia. Night everyone. I'm going to go try to sleep, and failing that, take a sleeping pill. P.S. RIP Johnny Cash. We'll miss you. |

Yeah, that's right. the people at SGI in general are a bunch of assholes. I mean, ok, so I'm not the greatest driver in the world, so be it, shit happens la de fucking dah. The interview went down hill faster then a cheap whore on Tuesdays. I wouldn't have had a problem with the guy if he kept himself neutral, and passive as government employees in that situation are required to do. No. Let me type out a bit of the conversation for you. Italics are just there to show the type of sarcastic 'I'm better then you' attitude he was laying on me. Me: "So, how long would this driver Improvement course be? And would it interfere with my classes which are during the week?" Him: "I wouldn't know. I'm a good driver, and so I've never had to take a course like that. I'm not trying to judge, but this is your decision. Bite my shiny metal ass you bloody knobgoblin. I really hate people like him. Makes me want to start taking them out one at a time with some sort of poison or something. I'm kind of surprised I didn't shove his black pen so far down his throat that he'd be pissing black ink for a month. But I digress. I'm calm now. Relaxed. Not feeling like I want to destroy the province. Nope nope nope, not me, not at all. Anyway, back to the grind. Tomorrow's another day. Parents are coming in today, which'll be nice. Haven't seen them for a while. Peace. For you at least. For me, I'll take Raging hatred. |

| Oh, I have a few more rants to get out of my system, but depending on how tired I am, they may or may not be up today. So sleepy. Need caffine.. | ||

| Ok, this is really starting to piss me off. I mean really. It seems at least once a week I dont get any sleep whatsoever. None. Zero. Zilch. I've tried everything that I can think of with little avail. I may have caught a grand total of an hour of sleep last night from the time of 10:30 till now (approximately 7:00) and I'm fucking tired. I've got a quiz coming up in the next few hours (even that part of my brain is down.) and I'm kind of surprised that I'm even typing coherently. If it wasn't for that stupid SGI thing at 4:15 today, I would go to class, come home at lunch and sleep till tomorrow. but nooooooo, I dont get that option. fuckers. I think I'm going to have to make a stop at the pharmacy to get some sleeping pills. ugh. | ||||||

Seems they've pushed Shaolin Soccer's North american release back to who knows when. It was supposed to be out as of yesterday, but noooooooooo bastards. Ah well. Went and picked up about 200 bucks worth of groceries today, so I should be set for a while now. at least until October. possibly longer. Anyway, peace. |

So Mindy finally 'decided' that we would go nowhere if we started dating again, so I'm dealing with it the easiest way I know. She is no longer a part of my life. Civil I can do. Friends, I cannot. So as of this moment, I've just finished pulling her off my ICQ list, and removing her from my e-mail address book and deleting her number from my caller id, and last but not least, removing her from my friends list right here on Deadjournal. Mindy, I dont care if you read what I have to say. But remember this. This is my journal, and my rants. you have a problem with it, too bad. Good day, I think I'm going to go out and get a case of mach 7s. mmm... vodka and vanilla.. |

Well, I used the most efficient way of budgeting I know how.... I froze my debit card in a glass of water. yes, that's right, I put my card in a zip lock bag, and sank it in a huge glass of water. Most effective way to control any spending that I know. That way I dont have to keep track of all the little expenditures, as I've made a monthly 'entertainment/eating out/blah' budget, so I'll unfreeze it once a month, take out that cash, and that's it. Eh so I know it's not a good way of doing it, but it is quick, painless and allows me to worry about other more important things like homework. and if my card gets damaged, no problem. Have to get it replaced sometime anyway, as the magnetic strip is wearing off, so if this makes it bite the dust, big deal, I'll get another card later on. Anyway, I'm out. later |
