mood: blah music: Miley Cyrus - Party in the USA
|
Can't stop listening to this song by Miley Cyrus. It's disgusting how infectious it is.
Other than that, my past 6 months of music can be described as Coheed, Lady Gaga and Notorious BIG with random other stuff in between. Incredibly random I know.
I play Melee. I play Falcon. I love. It keeps me sane.
There is only so much job hunting to do before degenerating into food/retail positions. Starting to think I might have to do that, at least seasonally. I have got to have some more money.
Watching The Dark Knight again currently. So good. "It's about sending a message. Everything burns." So many memories of that Summer. Ugh
http://www.wbtv.com/global/story.asp?s=11553099 This article is hilarious and short. It's about cell phone lingo and it's pretty much wtf.
Started reading The Great Gatsby tonight. Probably going to finish it tomorrow or Friday. It's a book I've always wanted to read but just never gotten around to it.
Started playing FFVI a little. Oh nostalgia.
Starting to see workout progress finally. I'm still at 175 but I feel and look better.
Wine night last Thursday with Amber was the best night I've had in months. Otherwise, I've been struggling to keep my morale up. I hate it.
I think that's it for my weekly update. |

Yub Jub means "Devour the Weak": An Authoritative Study of Ewoks
http://mcsweeneys.net/2009/6/2mcardle.html
Mike/Irish sent me this the other day and I just around to reading it today and I laughed my ass off. Absolute necessity to read for anyone who has ever watched a Star Wars movie. It's reasonably short and totally worth 5 minutes. |

mood: adderall music: Lady Gaga - Alejandro
|
Of all the shows that I really wanted to get to go to I officially get to go to none of them. Glassjaw was canceled, As Tall As Lions was too far, and as of today, Minus the Bear tickets sold out 3 hours before I went to buy them. Way to fuck up my Friday with Amber. Ugh
This week will be busy:
Tuesday: Breakfast with Adolphus, Lunch with Danny, Psych appointment, DDR (first time in months)
Wednesday: Job interview, Lunch with Danny, Saw Lizzie, Panera with Parth, then tons of Amberrrr.
Thursday: Lunch with Parth and then hanging out with Adam.
Friday: EDIT: No idea what I'm doing Friday.
Saturday: Picnic and stuff with Katie.
Sunday: Possible Melee tournament in Chapel Hill. May or may not go.
Hopefully intermittently job hunting and reading during the week.
I love this song and other new Lady Gaga a lot.
Read 200 pages of Kurt Vonnegut's "Slaughterhouse Five" in BAM today. Probably go back and finish it in the next two days. I realized why I haven't read very much in the last year or two; it's because I never read Contemporary stuff; it's because the last three projects I've picked up have been Nietzsche's "Gay Science", Virgil's "Aeneid" and Melville's Moby Dick. After Moby Dick I'm gonna read a lot more stuff. Contemp stuff is SO much easier and faster.
Fun fact: After 9 years, I'm still awful at finishing lj posts. |

After having the discussion with some of the Virginia guys on the way back from Philly, I amazon'd a copy of the Ellimist Chronicles. I got it in the mail today and finished it tonight and it was wonderful, in all its glorious nostalgia.
I can now officially say that I have read every book related to the Animorph series. I feel good about that.
More to this post later. Bed now. |

As of two days ago, my livejournal is officially 9 years old.
I feel accomplished.

"And there is all the difference in the world between paying and being paid. The act of paying is perhaps the most uncomfortable infliction that the two orchard thieves entailed upon us. But BEING PAID,--what will compare with it? The urbane activity with which a man receives money is really marvellous, considering that we so earnestly believe money to be the root of all earthly ills, and that on no account can a monied man enter heaven. Ah! how cheerfully we consign ourselves to perdition!"

I love this picture so much. Saw it on AIJ and Chris Deluxe inspired me to post it.
Raleigh was awesome. I can't wait to live there. I'm excited about my job. I start training on Friday. I can't even lie; I think the number one thing that sold them was my management experience running tournaments and how I answered their questions using that experience. Awesome awesome awesome. Thank you dance games. |
