Last night I saw Islands, Magic, and Street Carnage with David Blair, Hadley, Bill, and Clare. The show was most excellent although we had to leave early. However, there were some interesting events leading up to the show. At about 3 I got a call from Mike F who wanted to drop by because his house was full of relatives. We ended up discussing ( Read more... )

I cannot get an image out of my head. Well there are several I cannot get out of my head, but several are not for general discussion and the rest are unrelated. Specifically, I have my tattoo stuck in my head (this is the metaphysical tattoo that I have wanted for awhile). For those of you that read this/haven't seen it, the tattoo is taken from ( Read more... )

So I didn't sleep last night/this morning and in the course of doing my work stumbled onto a strange conclusion:
EARTH CRISIS is the Metalest band of all time ( Read more... )

If anyone reading this (does anyone) hasn't purchased The Adolescents 1981 S/T CD/EP they seriously need to consider ( Read more... )

At the risk of seeming derivative, here are my thoughts on the Mountain Goats show.

I'm back from break and writing a review for a book that I am probably (actually definitely) not qualified to write about.  The book is intended for graduate or post graduate students and addresses philosophers and philosophical topics that I am not really equipped to handle.  Hence why I am ignoring my essay to write about my life ( Read more... )

I promised that I'd sleep, but I can't seem to... so what the hell ( Read more... )

I haven't written in this thing since I activated it, and since I really have become a Pariah (as expected) I figure this should be where I write all of my stupid little thoughts.  I still feel burned from all the drama in my life, but as a "bonus" since I have very few people that I am responsible for these days I have more time to do my work.  Of ( Read more... )

I received my first customer compliment for actually doing my job yesterday.  This is several months into assuming my position as a corporate book seller, and a week after receiving training to do the information services job I have done the last month and a half.  This follows a string of complaints about my lacking professionalism from a variety ( Read more... )

    I am 20.  This is a startling revelation for me, because I spent most of my life waiting for a particular date (July 2nd, 2005) when I would turn 18 and haven't really had a date to look forward to since.  I lack direction and wants, so I feel like I'm drifting most of the time.  My drifting has recently lead to my employ at a corporate ( Read more... )
