A year ago last week I moved into my new apartment. I've spent 1 year now at 239B Maple Ave., and I have loved every minute of it. Well, everything aside from the massive heating bills (ouch!). But in the year I've been here, I've had gatherings, parties, great conversations with friends over glasses of wine. I've entertained friends, ( Read more... )

I was checkin' myself out in the bathroom mirror today, and I accidentally bumped my head on the way-too-short door doorway that leads out to my hallway. I hit my head very very hard. Later today, I almost passed out at an interesting moment, and now I have this headache that is like all over my head, and down the front of my face. I am afraid I ( Read more... )

A night in mid July, and I just got pulled away from a rousing game of football with my best friends in the neighborhood to go to my grandparents for a family dinner ( Read more... )

I rarely write in here about negative feelings, but today I would like to make an exception if you don't mind. I apologize if this upsets people, I really do, but for once, I have to be weak for a moment. It's just a bad time. I think I am gonna crawl under a rock somewhere.

...Racing along the bank, standing up while cranking away at the pedals as I looked down the 75 foot embankment that was but 10 inches to my left. I squeezed around a tree to my right, shifing my bike to the left but keeping my balance upright. I threw my weight into the next downhill, kicking my bike sideways to make the sharp turn at the bottom ( Read more... )

Old Navy has to stop letting me in the door. They should have a picture in the back rooms or whatever for all the employees to see... "don't let this man in the door! (insert Arian's picture)." I just love 75 percent off. Nothing like buying cheap-ass clothes to bring one's spirits up. That and a trip to Burger King for the first time in ages ( Read more... )

I slept for like 12 hours last night, which I really needed. I feel like Landschoot saying "so I woke up this afternoon..." naw really, I woke up at like 11:30. But anyway, in my lazy morning, I was thinking about the dumbest, most random stuff. One of which was how few people have ever actually called me by my name. When I was really little, ( Read more... )

Yet another Element update. Over the weekend, my car reached the 60,000 mile mark. This leads me to one conclusion... you all have to fucking move closer to me! I'm sick of this scattered across the universe bullshit. LOL. Just for kicks, I did the math and found out that I've likely spent around $7,000 on gas during The Black Box of Love's ( Read more... )
