:: Music: She's My Man by Scissor Sisters

I love the Scissor Sisters
The two best lines in any song ever in the history of songs:
She's my man
And we got all the balls we need

I also like:
May the best queen hold the crown
For the most bush sold on the levee

This song also wins the award for best music video ever. Not even kidding.

I love you all.

Hey guess what kids I got fired cause my (former) boss is a fucking idiot. See they give us these time cards to punch in and out and the other day she was asking me where I got mine from and I was like "what are you talking about thats the one you gave me" and she was all "well, when you punch in someone else's name comes up" and I was all "well I don't know why that would be but it's not my fault cause you gave me that card." And then got all pissy and was like "Well I wouldn't give you someone else's card and blah blah blah" And we went back and forth like that for awhile. So then I went to work yesterday. And after standing around for 1/2 hour cause I hadn't been assigned a job anywhere yet my boss tells me I'm fired cause of the time card thing. Yeah. Sooooo pretty much I got treated like shit for a week and chewed up and spit back out for something that I had NOTHING TO DO WITH. I called my temp service and told them what happened but I pretty much have no rights and no recourse cause I'm a temp. Don't you tell me capitalism doesn't suck.

So I just applied to go live on a bus and plant trees and teach kids about loving the earth. It's going down next spring. Here's the site: www.commonvision.org

I am crossing my fingers really really hard.

[edit]
You know, if my stupid job is gonna make me stay up all night, they need to actually provide work so I can get paid. I'm sure as hell not doing this for my health. Cause that's starting to go down the tubes on account of I can't hang with these hours very well.

So I went to sleep at 10 last night and only meant to sleep for a few hours, cause thats how I sleep on this fucked up schedule. But I just woke up a couple minutes ago. Which means I fucked up my already fucked schedule. Dammit! I hate working 3rd shift.

Mom was apparently going to put McHenry to sleep last Wednesday but she didn't want to do it without telling us.

He falls down the stairs and cries now. Poor kitty. He's not even old enough to die...

So I started a new job yesterday and it sucks GIANT DONKEY NARDS!!!! Man what I wouldn't do for a job that doesn't blow. Or to not need to have a job. And yes, it does suck and blow simultaneously. I work in a factory packing boxes all day. Or all night I should say. It's 3rd shift which makes it even suckier. So now my sleep pattern's all fucked up. I'm going on 2 hours of sleep today because I passed out as soon as I got home but then I had to get up and try and find a job that sucks less. And then after that I couldn't go back to sleep. So hopefully I can before I have to go back to work.

However, it won't be too much longer before I can get the hell out of here.

I got published. Sort of. It's a paper I wrote for an english class and some other people liked it apparently. Here's the link if anyone's interested.

I overslept and missed my first class so I shall use this opportunity to do what I always do, talk about my classes.

I had 17 credits this semester but I just dropped a class so now I'm down to 14. This semester is pretty much just catching up on requirements.

On Mondays and Thursdays, I have Earth Environments at 10:50. This class seems exactly like my 9th grade science class. The professor is married to my fourth grade teacher. It's like a timewarp. That's the one I missed this morning.

I also have Intro to Communication at 12:15. This is a requirement so I don't really care. I'm trying to see if I can avoid buying the book at all. It's going well so far. I just wrote a min 2 page paper last night that turned into 4 pages.

After that I had a French class. I dropped it. Gasster taught it, not Pichot and her idea of contemporary Francophone literature was African colonization books from the fifties to the eighties. It was horrible. Plus the books were very difficult.

Then tonight I have Image Editing. It's my only fun class. It is way too easy. During the first class, we changed a picture to grayscale! And that was our assignment.

Tuesdays, I have Humanities at 8am. I have it with McMillan who is pretty much the easiest prof at AQ. This is another required class. It's actually a sophomore required class that I didn't take last year because of stupid France.

Then I have my lab at 1:40. He says we'll watch movies and walk along streams. That's as hard as that class gets really. The walking.

Tuesday nights I have my first quad. It's Theology of Christian Marriage and it is with the hardest theo prof. Yay for me. It runs from 6:30-10:30. My first paper, due tomorrow, is supposed to be 5 pages of what I expect marriage to be like. It is going to be a lot of blabbing.

Wednesdays I don't have any classes. I just work.

Thursdays are just like Mondays except I don't have Theology.

And on Friday, all I have is Humanities and then I work.

I work on Tuesdays and Thursdays too.

So yeah. This semester sucks. I have to give two TAPED speeches eventually in my communication class. It shouldn't be too bad. It is a required course so most people should be able to get As.

I'm going to go try to find clothes now. I love you all.

P.S. Nick's grandmother isn't doing very well. Please think happy thoughts for her. Thanks.

I can't wait until I'm 21. Then I'll be a real adult and get to go to any concert. I'll be past all stupid age limits. Ha ha, world, I scoff at your attempts to foil my plans!

I should go to bed now. It's actually almost 3. Not 7.

Man, I really don't know if I can do this whole knife selling thing. I'm supposed to set up at least 6 appointments tonight and that alone seems insurmountable. Being that I've already called 4 people and no one picked up. Let alone actually selling anything. I'm really tempted to just say fuck it but I need the money real bad. Fuck! I should just start hanging out downtown and busking.

What is the worst thing that I could ever see?

A beaver.

It was on the corner of E Beltline and Burton. It looked exactly like those stupid pictures and videos except its tail was brown and not cross-hatched. He was hanging out in a ditch on the side of the road by some marshy area.

Hannah says the government discovered that I was on to them and sent a robot to convince me.

I think she's right.

P.S. Changed my background. It's a picture I took in Venice. Sigh. I miss Europe.

We lost our power yesterday. But obviously, its back on now. Had my first day of knife-selling training today. It was quite dull (pun intended). Also, if any of y'alls parents want to buy some high quality knives (or are at least willing to sit thru my spiel) please let me know. It would make me very happy.

A STORY!
I took my first ride from a stranger. It was like inadvertent hitchhiking.

I was on the bus and it started sprinkling a little bit and then, out of nowhere, POURED. I got off the bus and the driver suggested I take a schedule to use as a makeshift umbrella. I did. I walked five steps and my pants were soaked. I don't even know what my backpack is like, I should probably go air it out.

I got to E Beltline and the light just turned red so I had to wait. I was standing in the rain for maybe 15 seconds when a car pulled up and the driver started talking to me. It was a kind of old car and there were two kids in the back. He asked me how far I had to go, I said only down E Beltline. He offered me a ride and I accepted.

Maybe only Kelly will understand why I did this. It was raining, I was soaked, wearing a very light tank top and jeans, the light was red, I still had 479 yards to walk (1,437 feet) and I did not get any apprehensive/creepy feelings at all. Which is unusual for me because I worry about everything. He had two kids in the backseat, I had my cell phone and plenty of heavy books with which to whack him.

I got home fine and was filled with warm fuzzies about very kind people. People rock, the world is good, the end.

Now I have to wait until Nick gets home to get lectured.

I love you all.

P.S. I also have been overpaying for my bus rides and the bus driver was kind enough to point it out. She said that AQ students only pay 40 cents and the 10-ride card is basically 80 cents a ride. I only had a ten dollar bill so she said I can just pay twice tomorrow instead of overpaying. People are awesome!

:: Music: Nobody's Loss- Widespread Panic

So. Not much is new here. Still looking for yet another job. Well I sort of have one, but it is TOTALLY LAME (selling knives, I shit you not). But I am hoping to find another one so I can quit it before I have to subject myself to 3 days of unpaid training. In business casual attire. Gah, I can't wait till I have enough to get that stupid car fixed so I can get out of here. I am so incredibley bored. And yeah I know you're only bored if you're boring but I am getting a seriously bad case of cabin fever. I'm actually sort of somewhat jealous of all y'alls going back to school, as fucked up as that is. But pretty soon you all will be jealous of me. Probably. I mean as much as you can be jealous of someone who sleeps in a tent most of the time and works on farms for free. But that's not the point. I'm actually not sure what the point is, but anyway.....

So are there any menfolk out there who would like to visit Kyle with me? Cause apparently I can't go by myself. Pretty please? Anyway let me know.

[edit 8:06]
FUCK! The Hidden Hand broke up. They were only one of the best bands ever. I will say it again. FUCK!

I think Zelda:Twilight Princess is the most satisfying game, both ending and playwise. There's nothing at the end about resetting time like nothing happened. And you still get to deflect magic balls with your sword! (note to me: try bottle) And Midna's smokin' hot.

I half expected Ganon to be up there conducting an orchestra the way that music was. It was awesome. (he'd turn around and be all Uh... ... what? then a concussion blast turns them to dust. (the orchestra))

Time to collect 30 or so poes and more heart pieces.

I love you all.

P.S. Typed this all on the Wii. It was a major pain.
P.P.S. Want to be WiiFriends? I have Voldemort. And Jesus. And Buddha. And Mr. T. And Christina Ricci. And Hitler.
