Where to begin

everything happens for a reason, right? at least, some would like to think so - myself being one of them.

that being said, i'm still trying to divine the full significance of gunnie's bonfire, thursday night's conversation with heather, drunksitting tonight (as opposed to being with katie and lindsay), and the fact that i found a frog in my laundry this morning.

this is all adding up to something monumentally mediocre. i can feel it. i just hope it's me.

thinking hurts, girls are confusing.
work was interesting tonight.
i don't know what to think on some things right now.

i do know there is a party tomorrow
and that i'm going to the lumberjack breakfest.... lesbians...

sleep.

why does music always sound better like this?

my mouth is dry.

i wonder what the dog things.

hopefully things go well at the party tomorrow, i won't drink much, maybe play some flippy cup....

played quarters last night.
will swallowed my quarter.
will puked my quarter back up
i wiped it off and kept playing with it.
Its a 1982 quarter, blackish in color. It was bouced on the shelving unit that i was sitting in front of.

bonnie is dumb.
ugggh.

work is one of the few things keeping me sane. by the looks of it i'm going to get all the hours i need now.
hopefully buying a 4 runner next weekend.

my truck doesn't like me much.

i'm thirsty.
i want some ice cold water, out of a chilled glass bottle.

red flannel tomorrow, i've got to work. i hate working on red flannel.

andy, i'm sorry for not going to your bon fire, i just got out of work and i have to be there at 10 am tomorrow.

that fucking music boosters want pizza at 10:15 or some shit
they want tax exemption too. fuck them, they tip for shit, it takes forever to find a parking spot, they order a shit ton of pizza and give you like a dollar.

i'm glad i don't work inside.
maddie dog is dreaming, i wonder what about. i always think chasing squirrls.

i'm just writing random thoughts down.

i think i want to play drums.

anyways.

sweet dreams everyone.

nightly update.

things that are going good:
work, and lots of it.
Friends, they are good.
Tempo, because its sold

I might buy another toyota, an '86 4runner with the same motor as my truck, this thing is rusty but trusty. I'd swap the motors this spring, drive the runner through the winter, have my motor rebuilt over the spring with a port job on the head some bigger injectors and maybe some other mods.
Then part the 4runner out when i get the rebuilt motor in the truck.

the bad:
the brand new starter took a shit in my truck today at work, starter is locked up but the siliniod engages
still have some bills to pay.
justin moves in 11 days. wich would be nice if he was moving to GR, but his ass is moving to Florida. one of my best friends is just leaving. he's like a brother to me, i'm deeply sadded.

tomorrow i've got to swap a starter on the yota, then go bowling mmmm bowling, i love bowling.

my only day off is thursday, there are 2 people comeing to look at the tempo tomorrow, one guy said he is bringing a dolly and $250 in cash.

i'm excited. I need the money.

happy october everyone

so i saw benzer and robbie this weekend. that was crazy. and i got to hang out with kevin a little bit, which was also nice.

turns out i might be headed up to c-town this weekend. is it red flannel? or is that next weekend? i think it's this weekend. which would be freakin' insane. i don't know why i can't quite escape the place. and why i don't quite want to. there's nothing in that town, but i can't quite give it up. and then i remember all the people. or i'm painfully reminded. either way, i find myself there intermittently.

which has interesting ramifications for the post-graduate plan of attack.

anyway, happy october everyone.

I could spend all day trying to figure out why things are taking the course they are, but why? At the end of the day it isn't up to me. Things are the way they are because that's how they're supposed to be. Life isn't going to be easy every step of the way... I need to realize that.

I am going to face hard times and extremely difficult obstacles. There are going to be times when I feel as if nothing is going right and my heart is going to hurt. I need to embrace life for what it is, and what I have... instead of cursing it because it isn't what I want. I'm 19 years old, how do I even know what I want?

I don't, that's the thing. I don't know where I want my life to be tomorrow, or next week, or next year. I just don't know. What I do know is that I love him and I want him in my life. I need to realize that just because I want it, doesn't mean it's what is best for me and God will let me know if he is or not. Sooner or later God will let me know where I'm going and what I'm doing. I need to have faith in that, I need to let him show me the way instead of thinking I can do it by myself, because I can't.

lots of things have happened since i updated last.

i'm single again, jen and i decided the distance wasn't working between the two of us. we are still friends.

my laptop charger is gone, the hotel said they don't have it at all.
it dissapeared i guess.

the battery fell out of the 'yota on delivery last night, the positive terminal landed on the crank pully, killed the battery. I stand by the wal-mart "never start" batterys, if they go bad during the warranty, you get a brand new one. Lindsey took me to wal-mart last night.

I got home from ludington yesterday, Chelsea, chris and i went up there to fuck around. we saw some elk. it was good times.

jennie is giving me alot more hours and hungry hell. money is good.

thinking of donig the 63" chevy spring swap on the yota. MMM flex.

thats all for now i guess. eric's birthday saturday after werk. red flannel the next weekend, then sometime in october is my silverlake trip. then a mounds trip on thanksgiving i think.
