First day of school done and gone, holy shit. Botany seems interesting, and I think I'll learn a whole hell of a lot. Wish I could take the lab, because apparently you get to grow and play with a variety of plants, but my schedule is full as it is, just something to think about for next semester. Spanish will be cake beyond all cake, the teacher is ( Read more... )

I'm about to go to school. Hooray! I'm not so sure about the people I meet, they might be dicks, but I'm excited to have something marginally worthwhile to do today. Here's a song about college, it's by the Pixies ( Read more... )

And now I can laugh, because Mother Nature has the most fucked up sense of the humor. The strangest things go on for the strangest reasons.

I'd like to go surfing, but can't thanks to painful emergency surgery, and I'd like to eat actual food but can't thanks to the same procedure. Gas is expensive and I feel ( Read more... )

In Sacramento. Red Hooks and Fat Tires, drunkeness galore. Garrett is here, he's my favorite of them all. Episode 2, what a miserable movie, such convenient plot. I don't know what to do, what can I do? Things are too coincidental, maybe it's one of those times when my mom is communing with me. I think when I get back I'll go commune with her, run ( Read more... )

It's turning out good, long but good. Maybe wrap it up tomorrow? Or a day later. We'll see.

Went surfing today. It's amazing, but just when you get to thinking life actually matters, along comes a wave to demonstrate just how insignificant you are. There it is, big glassy monster looming out of the kelp beds. Point westward? Ride over the top? No, remember the last set, this ones headed right for you. You're on the launch pad and it's 10 ( Read more... )

Fuck it, not even going to bother any more. It's the one thing that riles me up, makes me crazy. I think I'll become a recluse, solitude sounds mighty nice this time of year ( Read more... )
