That's my favorite line from yesterday's song, which coincidentally, I heard live tonight. Brandon, Robert, Becca (my cousin, she's a junior who lives out in Bainbridge, bear with me in reverse order here) and I went to go see John Vanderslice and Pedro the Lion live at the Grog Shop, which was surprisingly packed. John Vanderslice was cool ( Read more... )

All you people who don't care to read about the only pure sport can go read their other friends' Livejournals, heh, but you might learn a thing or two here ( Read more... )

Well, I broke down and went to Chuck E Cheese's, and worked out an arrangement so that I work weekends in July and then will pull longer hours come August. Not exactly optimal, since A) weekends are pure pandemonium at Chuck's and B) my dad wanted me to get more hours, since this will pull in next to no money, but at least I won't be standing in ( Read more... )

Let me run down the checklist of things I was supposed to do today:
1. Apply for Chuck E Cheese Job...FAILED!
2. Clean out room...FAILED! (Like this surprises anyone)
3. Call people to see if I can get a ride to camp...FAILED! (They weren't home, I swear!)
4. Write thank-you cards...FAILED! (Almost done, really ( Read more... )

At the rate my job search is going, I'm going to be begging for more porridge just like Oliver Twist. EB Games said "hey, you're knowledgeable, but you're only going to be here 60 days and the minimum is 90 days." Grumble. I may resort to trying Chuck E Cheese tomorrow. I'm also supposed to be writing thank you notes for graduation gifts ( Read more... )

But I feel a curiously strong need to post about what I've been doing the past few days. For easy summary, here is a bulleted list ( Read more... )

Reference here. After much struggling with faulty power cords and missing CD's, I finally got DDR to work on the old Playstation we have upstairs. The pad is all busted and rarely responds, in addition to the fact that it only has the age-old games with songs that no one has heard of...but I still had a blast dancing for a sold out crowd of 0.

Ah, words of wisdom from Andrew (middle brother).

Two days, lots of business. Been working on applications to various places (of course, this is still not enough to satisfy my parents) and several of them actually look promising. Yesterday was Carmen's graduation party, which was a hoot and a half to attend. People seemed to clear out kind of ( Read more... )

Despite only having gone to one party, namely, Rose's. Good fun, all the happening people were there, including the sublime Niila. Ate tons of dessert, sang karaoke badly (I wasn't as impressed by it as I imagined I'd be, actually). On the way home I almost ran out of gas, then missed my exit and ended up in Summit County. Must have been ( Read more... )

I just got back from a whole lotta golf -driving range and then putt-putt. In the driving department, I hit the ball-collecting-kart squarely and solidly in the windshield on my very first shot, the driver was none too pleased but it was hilarious. Turns out that if I ignore all the advice I've been given over the years about how to grip a driver ( Read more... )
