drip, drip, drop… i won’t have to listen to the friggin’ leaky faucet no mo’. nor will i have to open the water-logged dishwasher ever again, by accident, forgetting it smells like swamp butt.

i left class early tonight, also by accident. i just packed up and walked out, realizing in the parking lot that maybe class was not over yet. it wasn’t really necessary for me to be there and i needed to get my taco on.

feeling like a grande quesadilla, i made my way to a taco bell. i really need to stop this, because i don’t like taco bell anymore. i may only eat there twice a year. as i was leaving, i wondered how many diseases i was acquiring from the unsanitary staff. it was an odd drive-thru experience going mostly in slow motion. i think the employees were not all there… in the head.

i guess what i’m trying to say is i need a beer and a woman.

it’s only a couple days away and we’ll be transferring into more space. i’ll be returning to my fancy computer. i’ll be able to make 64tacos the aesthetically pleasing site it needs to be. i’ll get back to selling my dvds for supplemental income. i’ll take an axe to my belongings and keep an “everything must go-ish” mentality.

we’ll finally be able to entertain guests with enough space for them to move around. i’m looking forward to getting a reasonably priced table for having a surface to eat off and play games on. it will be nice to have more fridge/freezer space and a bigger stove for setting off the smoke detector. burn that pizza good, i say.

but most of all, thursday is the day my cd, dvd, and two t-shirts will be shipping. hopefully, it will get here by saturday. i don’t know if i can wait until monday. everyone and their moms will be listening to this cd by monday. it’s gonna be that good.

it’s kinda weird when you’re looking through the obituaries (which is not something you normally do) and you come across a photo you copied for someone a few days ago. you think: “i know that. i made that!”

when i processed it, i thought nothing of it. just another photo, another face, another memory passed through my fingers. a celebration of life.

it’s like i had an impact on something bigger than a scrapbook or a picture frame. i made a photo for an obituary. the sad thing is that i don’t even know how the young pup died.

the time is drawing near to return to the world of high speed internets. i prefer dsl to cable, because i’ve had better luck with dsl overall. it was a tough decision, though. cable is only a few dollars more and it’s a tad faster. but it’s only faster when it’s not kicking you off or having an outage.

i went to circuit shitty, because i found a good deal on the modem i needed. the catch: mail-in rebates. the bane of my existence! none of the other deals even came close, and i am not renting a modem from qwest for $5-8/month. no way.

if everything goes as planned, the modem will only be $20 and i will have a $125 gift card to circuit shitty. too bad things never go as planned. i’ll just be happy if i get some high speed internets.

maybe i should try being optimistic. i have had rebates that went through. i’ve only really been burned once for $20. of course, i haven’t really jumped at the opportunity to be burned again.

i will consider this my final warning to myself.

12:13 PM me: you are

12:32 PM me: are you swimming again?
you must be.
alls of a sudden you get nice weather and a pool and you can’t stay out.

12:40 PM me: there’s so much stuff to do outside, you’ll never be in front of your computer again.
i knew this would happen.
