First off, to quote Parliament: "They still call it the White House, but that's a temporary condition too, can you dig it?" Seriously, do we have to wait to January to get rid of this incompetant chimpanzee?

Yeah, so I totally haven't been using this thing like I was hoping too. Most days I'm stuck in front of a computer all day at work, so by the ( Read more... )

What? I have a blog? I don't know who, if anybody, still uses this thing, but what with having graduated (What? I graduated?) and all, maybe it will be a good way to keep in touch with some old friends (provided any of them still use this).

So I've graduated and moved to Johnstown, PA which for those of you who don't know is a small Western ( Read more... )

My friend Jorge had the great idea that we should do a book where everone writes 5 or so anecdotes and we pass it along. I took the liberty of starting it. These are a bit long, but I think, pretty amusing. Most of you have probably heard a couple of these, but I don't know that anyone's heard them all.

The other day I was walking, and I ran into a friend of mine ( Read more... )

I told myself I wasn't going to fool around with this thing anymore, but lately I've been feeling the need to have an artistic outlet again. I've set up a nice practice space in the basement, and it looks like a band might potetially take off if we can ever get all of us in there at the same time. School schedules make things rough, and this ( Read more... )

I've recently rediscovered the novel I've been working on here and there for the past few years. I've decided I want to make some serious progress with that over this summer. Also, I think I've had enough of Livejournal for a while. I plan to use my novel for when I need to write, or a creative outlet. If anyone is dying to know what's going on in ( Read more... )

And in other news, I'm a drunken ass...

New screenname, Retardafunking. There's kind of a weird story behind it. I dunno, I just wanted a name without a string of numbers after it, so I just came up with odder and odder things until something worked ( Read more... )
