Spent the day parting with our crew. Loads of junk food. Video games on a giant screen and big P.A. system.

 

Got pwned at everything I tried. (I officially suck at Rock Band, Modern Warfare, Halo 3...)

 

Note to self: Never play any electronic game against anyone born after the year you graduated high school.

 

Walked a bit after the party. Ran into my actress friend on the subway on the way home. Made for a nice ride, for a change. :)

 

We made plans to meet up on the way to the party she is throwing Friday night.

 

I might go out later tonight... but the later it gets the less I'm feeling it.

 

My mom had the chimney cleaned today. It cost a fortune. (MORE THAN 13-HUNDRED BUCKS!!!)

 

They had a whole song and dance about how they had to do a bunch of repair work... and that it was so bad that they would have had to shut off the furnace if she didn't have it done immediately.

 

I wish I could have been here. I can't help but think they might put the runaround on my 79-year old mom. Stinks of a scam...

 

I think I'll look up their business on the BBB website...

I just love the irony of being booed off the stage playing a video-game version of songs I have actually played on a real stage on a real guitar for real audiences. :dozey:

 

I'm actually getting OK at the guitar and bass. I can keep my accuracy over 90% on most songs at easy and medium.

 

That fell off a bit at higher settings... but I usually made it all the way to the end without getting failing completely.

 

Hitting all the rhythms are easy for me. Getting my fingers on the right buttons, especially on the chords, is where I get tripped up.

Aw, that's OK. I bet you are great at plugging in the controlers and adjusting the volume on the TV :joy:

 

bahahahahahahahahahahhaha nice.

 

yeah man...well it's either this or be depressed.

 

there are other options. You seem to worry alot about what others think of you while vehemetly stating that you dont care(which makes it easy to peg that you really really do). And thats OK, because, well, 90% of people ages 7-35 do.

 

 

<semiobligatory PSA>

Judging ones self worth based on artificial hootenany is why so many people in our society are depressed. Society needs to realize that not everyone can go to college, graduate, get a good above average paying job and get married and have kids. Cuz ya know, 50% of the population, is below average in SOME WAY, whether you just couldnt go to college or find it harder to meet a member of the opposite sex that you can stand and can stand you ETC ETC ETC.

 

</psa>

its pretty retarded. and its mostly the governmental industrial complexes fault, because, ya know, feeding that crap to us is what keeps them going :¬:

heh well i yelled at my mom on the phone today...just cause i have a little cold she is like 'you sound like you did when you were at basic' big ****ing deal. then she proceeded to say 'maybe you won't be able to pass the pt test etc' so i was like 'yeah, that's what you wish.' why can't people that are close to me just let me ****ing be instead of putting me down like that? and my she's insisting on coming over and putting up curtains today...after that comment earlier i'm pretty pissed off.

 

i wish everyone would realize i'm trying to join the army out of doing something for myself and i'm not running away or using it as a plan b or whatever, and i've thought long about it for a few years, so it's not just a rash decision. every time i've talked to them about it they gone and tried talking me out of it, for what reason? there's no reason to waste anymore time waiting for something that doesn't exist.

well, the run was pretty good. i'm not coughing my lungs out, so i'd say i'm just about over the cold. :D drinking water today...

 

I'm going to take a break from the alcohol and focus on improving my pt goals.

I think it's rained a little every day for the last couple of weeks. My lawn is at least 2 feet tall at this point. And gone to seed. Awesome.

 

Free "appreciation" lunch today. Did nothing else before or after that. Rough day.

glad things slowed up for you to enjoy the day. :p

 

it has been raining here, but i'm usually at work so i don't notice it. rain never really bothered me until i lived in jacksonville, florida...i definitely do not miss those electricity-killing thunderstorms.

 

I've been relaxing today, playing call of duty 4...getting rank. level 27, 2nd time going through.
