I ran into the craziest guy ever a few days ago. He look about 60-ish and was wearing a t-shirt with a wide variety of different types of weed, and over that was a Grateful Dead tye-dyed shirt with an orange bandanna.

So the summer is quickly coming to an end. My internship has only a couple more days before I am on my long drive home.

I've reached the point where i am so stressed that i am in an awesome mood. As in I am so insane that everything makes me laugh, especially if it is about me having to do way more work that I was expecting. I'm just accepting that i am in a pile of shit, but in two and a half weeks I will be on a plane to sunny Florida. So it goes.

Well, the results are in and there's not much good news ( Read more... )

I am slowly but surely screwing myself over. I promised myself that i would work on my piston today, and i am kinda now... but I did just waste 3 hours of prime working time to finish reading my book. It was so good, i never realized how much fun reading could be... I havent read a good book in over a year. The book i just finished is called, " ( Read more... )

Well, Reiki is gone. I dont even want to think about it, i miss him. I had a fun night though, watched Napoleon Dynamite for the billionth time, and I still laughed. I also watched Shaun of the Dead for the second time. I hope it doesnt give me nightmares, but man i laughed so hard. It really is a romantic comedy with Zombies ( Read more... )
