:: Mood: ill...

Today, I was so extremely tired...fell asleep in almost all of my classes...I'm not going to stay up that late tonight, I swear...Amanda was ill today, so that made french a bit less fun...no one else likes to argue with Kern in that class...Mrs. Kern took my book, pissing me off...Sara wasn't here either...I really hope she isn't still as angry with meas she was...I don't like it when any of the Triangle is angry with me...doesn't happen to often, but when it does, it is usually extensive...I should not be angering any of them, and I hate it when I do...it's usually with my words, and rarely with an action I've taken...*sigh* maybe I suck with girls?

Work was boring and lonely...I can't really joke around with Mrs. Kayser or Christina...James did stop by, however, but only for a few minutes...we made fun of a few things, and that was it...I later saw Megan copying her music for her auditions for college...talked with her for awhile...then I left...Carmen came over eventually, after visiting Esther...we watched some ebaum's world stuff, and had a good time...she ate the rest of my Beef Stroganough also...I've got bad gas and indigestion, so I'm going...

"Under your command I will obey
In my vision
You are the embodiment of pure freedom
But through my eyes you are made of stone"

*Sigh*

Today, I went to church, and then to James' Eagle Scout Coronation (well, not right after church, but pretty soon after it)...had a good time with that...then I came home and played Morrowind instead of working on anything at all...hmm...oh well...helped my mom fix dinner, my favorite meal, Beef Stroganough...after dinner, I accompanied Carmen up to St. V's to visit Esther, who had just had surgery today...she seemed good...not too many ill effects of surgery left over...just groggy and sore...

Yesterday, I worked in the morning, which was fun, because it was with my two favorite ladies...Jen and Kristin, both fun and exciting, and don't care if I don't work or not...good times...after that, I came home and played Morrowind until my sister got home from bowling, and she whined and bitched until I let her on...sheesh...I took a nap until my uncle arrived...my uncle brought me a pre-amp, to hook up to my computer, allowing me to record my vinyls to an audio file...we also bought me two Steely Dan vinyls, two I wanted but never have had...he also brought me 8 cds to listen to and to put onto my MP3 player...after that, I went to band...we played well...after that, I went to Spot's with a group of people, mainly Chris, Carmen, Coomes, and Ian...after that, we returned to Chris' for an hour or so of GTA:Vice City...quite fun...Ian left early, Chris went to Rocky, and Coomes had to be home by 12, so I just hung out with Carmen a bit longer, drove around and talked...

...And then I came home...and had a conversation with Sara...I found out that she was angry with me, for something I had said the night before, about how we acted at DQ...she ended up blocking me, and I believe she still has me blocked...it saddens me...

Quote of the day:
"Ladies of leisure,
with their eyes on the back roads.
All looking for strangers,
to whom they extend welcomes
With a smile and a glimpse of
pink knees and elbows;
Of satin and velvet
good ladies, good fortune.
Ladies.

They sing of their heroes:
of solitary soldiers
Invested in good health
and manner most charming.
Whose favors are numbered
(none the less well intended)
By hours in a minute;
by those ladies who bless them.
Ladies."

Well, today was fun...didn't fall asleep through anything important...French isn't important, y'see? And Mrs. Dever knew that I slept through the movie yesterday, saw that my head was up and down, but heh...I always thought she'd get pissed if I slept through class...I guess not...that's pretty cool, except I shouldn't really sleep through class...hmm...went to pep band tonight, Girls won, it was good...Carmen showed up late because she had to work...didn't miss "Hey Baby" though...I'm missing French tomorrow because of dumb band, so I don't have to do the homework...I'm pondering whether or not to skip 4th and go out to lunch with people...I kind of need to be in art...hmm...tonight, after band, went and kept Carmen company for awhile...and then I came home...

Morrowind isn't good...I've been late to work every day of the week...it isn't good...although, it'd be considerably worse if it were Diablo...I might have not even gone in at all...*sigh*...I'm going to stop putting this before my job and homework and health...and it hasn't even reached the weekend yet...Something wicked this way comes...

:: Mood: tired...

Hmm...well...I was tired again, up pretty late...woke up early, and took 4 people to school, in a car, that has the insides of the windows frosted over...I found out why it's done that, so I'm going to try and fix it...hmm, picked up Megan and Josh, took Dan and my sister...no longer taking Daniel, because he has his car back...Megan was just dumb...lost her car privelages...school was school...after school, I came home, and played more Morrowind...This is definitely going to consume me...not as much as Diablo did, mainly because I've got a car and friends to visit...but still, it's all I did tonight...no homework, just that...oh, and Carmen did stop by for a moment...picked up her color tile thingies...hmm...did my Resumé though...heh...

Hmm...the other day, my dad told me that we were going to have a talk, in the near future, about the opposite sex...I wonder what that entails...

And even after playing Diablo for less than an hour, I feel its hold upon me strengthening...and when Carmen reads this, she'll roll her eyes and mutter the word "Dork"...

I was tired today at school...I was up too late, having an old school chat with Carmen and then didn't get much sleep because my cat puked on me...I struggled through school, barely keeping awake...I came home, and played with my new addiction...unfortunately, it isn't Diablo, but it is Morrowind...and after talking with online friends, I know I'm going to be a hermit for awhile...if it weren't for work, school, and the Triangle, I'd never leave the house...hah...hung out with Carmen a bit tonight...made me happy...she makes me happy...as does Sonic 2...if it weren't for sleep, I'd go play that right now...

This morning...I went to church...when I got home, I talked to Carmen...and then took a nap...hung out with Joshie after that...then took apart the Christmas Tree...then ate dinner...then went over to Carmen's, and pretty much got a hug...a nice, long hug...I decided that I didn't feel like going to the store in this weather, so I went home and picked Joshie up...we screwed around in Morrowind for awhile, and then he left...and here I am, going to bed...

...And the reason for the cheerfulness...

Tonight, I went to Stevie's with Dan, along with the entire group...I was just chilling around, looking for a movie to watch, searching through drawers and cabinets...I find, bringing me to an enlightened state of glee, that she owns a Sega-CD, along with Sonic CD, the only Sonic game that I've not beaten...or played for that matter...wow, did that make me ever so happy, even though it shows how much of a dork I am...wow, boy o boy...great times...such as Sonic 2 gives me an unbelievable high, probably nothing natural or synthetic could top...so many good memories flood back, scenes engraved in my retina come back, to when my parents had a larger T.V. set in their room, and we had the Genesis hooked up to it...this was fairly soon after Christmas of either '92 or '93...my mother and I kept getting stuck on Act 2 of Chemical Plant zone (second level of the game) because of the rising water levels...now, I look back at that and laugh, because it is fairly easy for me, but those memories still exist...and they will never leave me...my mother and I used to play that game a ton, always having trouble on Oil Ocean zone...we called the hot-line for help on the boss of Sky Base and Death Egg...these are such good memories that they bring tears to my eyes...anyways...where was I? Well, I came home eventually, to find a cd that I had lost for about 5 years...wow...two dreams come true (hah, not really, but now I don't have to spend another $26 to get that cd)...you all should see the smile on my face right now...Sonic CD and Disc 2 of the Sounds of Science in one night! A Godsend!

Quote of the day:
"I lock the gates to hell
I toll the final bell
I am forever

I am the blinding light
Probing the endless night
There's no escaping me

Wake in your darkest dreams
Go ahead and try to scream
No one can hear you now"

The Dante's Inferno Test has banished you to the Fifth Level of Hell!
Here is how you matched up against all the levels:
LevelScore
Purgatory (Repenting Believers)Moderate
Level 1 - Limbo (Virtuous Non-Believers)Very Low
Level 2 (Lustful)High
Level 3 (Gluttonous)Very High
Level 4 (Prodigal and Avaricious)High
Level 5 (Wrathful and Gloomy)Very High
Level 6 - The City of Dis (Heretics)Very Low
Level 7 (Violent)Very High
Level 8- the Malebolge (Fraudulent, Malicious, Panderers)High
Level 9 - Cocytus (Treacherous)Moderate

Take the Dante's Inferno Hell Test

Fifth Level of Hell

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The river Styx runs through this level of Hell, and in it are punished the wrathful and the gloomy. The former are forever lashing out at each other in anger, furious and naked, tearing each other piecemeal with their teeth. The latter are gurgling in the black mud, slothful and sullen, withdrawn from the world. Their lamentations bubble to the surface as they try to repeat a doleful hymn, though with unbroken words they cannot say it. Because you lived a cruel, vindictive and hateful life, you meet your fate in the Styx.

Hail the return of the short temper...for it is coming back, whether I want it to or not...I practically snapped at Carmen earlier today on the phone, to which she said "don't get upset" and I replied, lamely "I'm not"...which was a lie...and I know she could tell...*sigh* I also snapped at Britt before I left for Myrtle Beach, also not good...

So maybe it isn't just the hotel room that makes me have those dreams...and even worse, I can't wake up when I want to, leaving me to endure these horrible dreams...I really hope that these do not become a regularity...

Today, I went to the river with Carmen, Esther, Doug, Emily, Kevin, and Dr. Underwood...I wish I could have gone in...granted that I've probably been in colder waters than the Maumee...cleaner also...The Au Sable, in late August, early September has a nice temperature of about 37 degrees...especially at the whirlpool...*sighs* I missed my Grayling trip this year...first year in a long time when I haven't gone up there...I've got so many good memories up there...maybe I'll move up there when I graduate from highschool/college...get out of this town...

Anyways...we went out to Bob Evans, had a fun time there...I went home, and then over to Dan's for dinner...good dinner, got full...went to visit Carmen, got scared by Chris and Justin so I left...came home and finished Better Luck Tomorrow...I went out to take the movie back, and ended up going to Meijer to get myself more deodorant...that evolved itself into an hour and half of just driving around, listening to a random assortment of music...

I'm back now, from my oh so wonderful vacation...we got there in record time, 12 hours and 10 minutes, partly due to me to driving 80 some miles per hour down the express way/toll road...so we got there in time for dinner, and we went to our traditional cafeteria...went and checked into the hotel and got set up...our hotel/resort wasn't anything fancy...in fact, it sucked, because on sunday we found out that we had ants...so we spent most of that day waiting to hear what the damned staff was going to do about it...they moved us to another room, which also sucked a lot because the sliding doors didn't work properly...*sigh*

Saturday, we went put-putting, walked on the beach, and that was it...

Sunday, after the room fiasco, we went to the Carolina Opry...it was country Christmas music, which is like a double no in my book...I didn't like it...and I'm not saying here that country sucks, it's just not my bag of corn (or cup of tea, Carmen)...it was a good show from a musical standpoint, but not one that attached itself to my tastes...after that, we went out for ice cream...

Monday, we went put-putting again, and I came home for a nap, because I was feeling rather fatigued...I do not sleep well in hotels...Why, I do not know...all I know is that for some reason, they seem to bring out dreams...very rarely it is that these dreams are good ones...they usually end up being the most gruesome, vivid, and terrible dreams I've ever had...I usually wake up from these dreams in a cold sweat, crying and sobbing, feeling really depressed and alone...and I'm usually up for an hour or so after that, and when I do fall back asleep, they come again...that can happen only so much before the night is gone...*sigh*

Tuesday, we drove home, took longer than I wanted, Carmen beat me home...I've seen that I can't stand my family...it didn't take long for them to get on my nerves...it upsets me...it's almost as if I hate my family...I wish I could stand to be around them and not fight or bicker within 30 minutes...Carmen believes it may have had to do with my lack of sleep...I hung out with her later in the night, after she visited some other people...it was much better than Thursday night, where I screwed up an infinitely amount...which I feel has happened before, but maybe it is only in my mind that I see these things...maybe I'm over reacting to the way I think...hmm...

I've also realized something...I've been extremely dumb these past few months of my life...heh...

Merry Christmas...it's funny, I'm not that excited about today, nor am I excited about our upcoming trip to Myrtle Beach...I could practically not care any less what goes on...this is bad...it feels almost that this isn't me...like all feelings are leaving me...is this what I've become? Emotionless?

Well, yesterday was alright...got my sweet boxers from Carmen for Christmas, and I gave her the radio adapter thingy for her car...she is really pleased with it, and it works, so I am glad...I went and visited her at work, got a hug there...came home, had a great dinner at James', got full, fell asleep, woke up, came home, felt sick, went and visited Carmen...I went to give her a hug, because she seemed pretty down...I ended up staying awhile, maybe longer than she entended me too, and if that's the case, I'm sorry...didn't mean to wear out my welcome...came home to my lonely house, my lonely room, my lonely bed...

We went up last night to the zoo, for the lights...it was kind of boring...I drove up with Britt, had a fun time with that...there isn't too much to see up there, took a look at Stevie's Graham Cracker house, saw the lights, the seals, the polar bears, the penguin(s), the walrus, the wolves, and then came home...actually, we went to Fazoli's, and had a good time at that...made a rucus, they were probably ready to kick us out...I felt kind of bad, if they were going to kick us out and we were being bad...anyways...before going up to the zoo, Britt came over and I gave her my present, she liked it...we had trouble opening the box and getting the thing to shut off...Amanda came over a bit after that, and she followed us out to Jackie's...I gave Sara her present there, and I believe she liked it...I couldn't tell though...I hope she did...anyways, after Fazoli's, Britt came home with me and we played a bit of Double Dash...had a fun time with that, and then she left...Carmen came over around 10:30, but had to leave around 11:30 to pick up Esther...Got partway through episode 4 of Excel Saga...she made me go to bed early...

This morning, I woke up, and laid around...took a shower and went to work...after that, I went out and bought Carmen's present, which I hope she likes...

My mp3 player is giving me some problems, which I don't like...well, it is my computer actually...doesn't like ripping some tracks off of my cds...So then I don't have the complete playist that I should have...

Carmen's got Esther staying with her, which has made it hard for me to talk to Carmen late at night about what is troubling me...and it's about that time when the problems have been thought out...

Hmm, I feel I keep on screwing up, making it seem like something is here that isn't...I hope I haven't, cause that's not what I want to do...maybe I should just stay away...

*Sigh*

Well yesterday, we delivered food to the needy for St. Tom's...it feels good to do such a thing...one of the families wasn't home though...I almost feel that the people who smoke should not get this aid, as odds are if they didn't smoke, they wouldn't be in this mess...*sigh* I went to work, took my Nomad and listened to some songs...Melody came in and I trained her a bit more...it is pretty nice having someone to work with...after work, I got together with Joshie, and we went to see Return of the King, with my father of course...it was amazing! After that, Joshie and I went down to visit Carmen, who apparently had a really horrible shitty day at work...I'm sorry that she had that bad of a day...after Carmen got off work, Joshie and I went over to her house to watch some anime, but first, we visited Esther with her...I got two Double Cheeseburgers for $3 bucks...actually $2.10!!! Yay for saving money! Well, we went back to Carmen's to watch a lot of Haunted Junction...we kind of made it through episode 11, but Carmen and I were too tired to stay awake through that one...I ended up dozing off, and woke up with a start...it was 11:28, and I need to be home in 2 minutes...I ended being up late, but nothing came of it...James and I played some Rockman Power Battles 2, and had a good time at that...brings back good, nostalgic memories...I was talking on the phone with Carmen during that time...I had to get ready for bed, so I told her I'd call her back...I guess I took a little too long as when I called she was practically dead...that was a good thing, though, as she had a particularily bad day, with plenty of stress involved...she needed her sleep, I know that, so I wasn't hurt...

I've been seeing things lately, and it worries me an extreme amount...sometimes, it even causes me to cry...cry a whole lot...I am disgraced with myself...

Well, it's Friday, beginning of break...here I am, 2 am, updating...I'm loading files onto my Nomad, which is sweet already...I love it, and as much as I love my music, it can only mean that this will be my essential material good...all of my music, in my pocket! Tonight, I spent some time with Carmen, getting an oil chage, almost finishing up my Christmas shopping...getting dinner at Bamboo Garden and then watching some Haunted Junction...Had a great time doing that, as always...Carmen went over to Rachel's for a movie, with Megan and Elise also...The girls came over here, I got my presents from Britt and Sara, which are lovely...And I didn't vomit...I've spent practically all night ripping songs onto my Hard drive, and then transfering them to my Nomad...I wasn't paying attention and got my space down to 100 mb, on my computer that is...I've still got 35 viable gigs left on my Nomad, after 323 songs...LOVELY! And now I must go get sleep, so I can help out the need tomorrow...

I've also been having some bothersome feelings lately...not because of what they are, just that I don't want them now...maybe if they were a few months ago, that'd have been fine...
