The latch was a little rusted shut, like someone almost forgot this place was here. I picked it open with (oddly) one of the spikes on my aguillette, and immediately the smell of hot, dusty water came rushing out. Maybe with a little garbage in there, too. Yeah, that never changes. I flicked the light switch, and to my surprise, the bulbs were ( Read more... )

This week has been the most boring of the recent past. A lot of things were made apparent to me ( Read more... )

I've gotten some clarity on the past week, and the debacle that was my mental state. So, with some luck, and a little bit of being the coolest kid ever, I'll be able to rise to the challenge. Special thanks to my brother for listening to me. That's exactly what I needed ( Read more... )

Today, I woke up and was the crankiest I've ever been in QUITE some time. All day, I'd get pissed off at the smallest things, and getting worked up over filling out a form that may or may not mean I'm signed up for a credit card. In return, I received a free pita. It had chicken, feta cheese, and ranch dressing. And no, it wasn't worth it ( Read more... )

My dad has been watching NHL hockey since five o'clock this afternoon, and so help me God I'm becoming intimately aquainted with the NHL announcers' voices. When I dream tonight, it'll be in the voice of a middle-aged Canadian man who is VERY excited about Ed Balfour's gymnastic puck-halting save ( Read more... )

No matter what anyone says, life can be very painful. Whoever says otherwise is on drugs, insane, or selling something/is a liar.

Everyone else having a great fucking week?!

Today I never really woke up. I went to bed at 11:30 last night, woke up at seven, and was the most exhausted I've ever been IN MY LIFE. I fell asleep in the shower, at the table, and at the computer. Nearly doing a face-plant into my Frosted Mini-Wheats, it was at this time I decided there was something amiss in the land of Alex. So, deciding ( Read more... )

There have been good weeks in the history of the world, but this one does the best. I had my frustrations, but overall, life did pretty damn well ( Read more... )

What an incredible past couple of weeks. First off, I went to the Tucson and spent an amazing weekend with Tina A, the lady above the rest. I came home to find I had destroyed my computer, and so for the next two weeks was unable to do any assignments/amusing things on it. So, my drawing experience became my main entertainment, and let me say, I ( Read more... )

Another week begins anew, and I have to say, I'm rather impressed with the course of my life. College is cool, and I have classes that not only aren't all bullshit, but happen to be interesting. Now, I still think college is bullshit by itself, but being able the status of American democracy today with people who know their shit is wonderful. ( Read more... )
