Direction
Music today: "Good Luck", Basement Jaxx
Registered for school a couple mondays ago. Interesting. I even took my CPT. More interesting. I never thought I'd make it into English Comp I Honors. This is good as it's required for my degree in Computer Graphic Design and onward into Video game Design. Who knows, maybe one day I'll actually work on these MMORPGs. Then maybe I can design a tool to get rid of backstabbing online "friends" in these games. Wouldn't that be nice? Then again, there wouldn't be that many players after that. Ah well...I'll be pursuing japanese too. Certainly they're more entertaining on these games than most.
I'm excited about school and meeting real people. I've come to find that most people you meet online are liars in one way or another or require more than one monitor to accommodate each of their faces. A shout out now to those exceptions: Pete & Rita, love you guys!
Welcome a new blogger on the links menu, Miss Sarah. Now I can return the favor of pestering her about blogging. Also Miss S, congratulations to you on your upcoming wedding!

Please God, destroy Hollywood.
Okay, could The Chronicles of Riddick have been ANY worse? I think so, but only if fused with Van Helsing and featuring a gratuitous lesbian scene between Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. Crap. Go burn your cash or spend it on Garfield. Couldn't do any worse.

Happy Birthday To His Royal Badness
Merry Princemas everyone!
On this day in 1958 a little boy was born that was destined to blow the socks of millions of listeners with his escalating career. For the last 25 years Prince Rogers Nelson has made love to us over the microphone and caused many an eargasm with his sharp sound, creative style and ever-innovative musical endeavors. I've been lucky enough to have lived through every bit. Since the first time I heard his debut single "Soft & Wet" I've been hooked. His music has helped me through tough times, it's inspired my artistic side and it plays its part in making my feet move and my hips shake. If I couldn't have danced all these years while listening to his stuff I probably would have offed myself. He's infectious and I'm glad we got to take this ride through life at the same time. Thanks Prince! You've made my life colorful and I appreciate that. Happy Birthday!

You're an Etch-a-Sketch!! You're the creative,
artsy type who doesn't need to actually utilize
a single muscle group in order to have fun.
Doesn't matter though, you're still cool.
What childhood toy from the 80s are you?

Music at the moment: Janet Jackson "Sexhibition" (Didn't she perform this one at the superbowl?)
Wow..I came on once I got home to post today's not so great happenings and was taken aback by the new Blogger cinfiguration. *blinkity blink* Having to relearn my way around.
Went out this evening with our friend Jennifer to have some food, coffee and a necessary meshing of mindsets. Turns out today that she receives a collection notice from AOL saying she owes them $75. Shocked and bwildered she began her phone tag with the various parties (AOL, Collection Agency, etc.) Turns out that Adam, our "friend" having "successfully" gone through rehab and served his 1 year of house arrest for cocaine and crystal meth abuse, used her credit card number to secure his own AOL account. The account was cut-off for non-payment last november and Jennifer is just finding out about it. Wow. And here we thought he was doing so well. So, I checked the Clerk of the Court page this evening and lo and behold, his case is reopened. There before my eyes was text I'd expected/dreaded/wanted to see for a while.
4/14/2004 ALERT ISSUED
Violation of Probation Warrant Issued issued on: 04/14/2004
For: WELCH, ADAM ABRAHAM
Bond Amt:
Bond Type: PRE-TRIAL RELEASE BOND
This is his second VoP so from my understanding it's straight to prison this time. I hope it does him good. I doubt it will, but one can always hope. Our friendship had never reclaimed what it was before on our reconciliation and if nothing else it was good closure. I wish him the best and if the best is staying in prison so he's off drugs then I wish him a long sentence.
Song switch: Christina Milian "Dip It Low"
This event and the overall malaise that comes with it doesn't help this rut of depression I've been in for a while now. Nor does it help that dear friends of mine are going through the same thing. John, my heart, is getting depressed after 6 weeks on the boat. He's ready to come home. I think Bryan is in a slump from travelling so much lately. he's ready to stay home for a while. Jane is depressed over , well she isn't sure, but that was just like me so I totally understand. Heather's crapped out over school and this shitty class she's in. My mom's depressed over the court case she and Dad are going through with Bank One. I'm sure they will come out in the end owning their house outright as well as comfy from the punitive settlement. For now though, she's stressed and bleh. Maybe it's life in general and the state of the world that helps season everyone's routines here lately. I, for one, could use a trip off this rock to some super planet with neat things to see, plenty of entertainment, flying people and spaceships. Little green men are fine too. I like green okay and I'm partial to short men. They just have to be good looking little green men and none of that probing on the first date.
For what it's worth, all my love goes out to those people in a similar rut. Things will get better eventually. Have a glass of wine and a super dickmann on me.

Today was a nice day.
I got up and felt generally icky as I'd slept for too long. I went to bed at 11:30ish last night knowing full well I'd be up at 6 am for hitting the hay before midnight. It's my curse. But no, I woke up out of a dead sleep at 10:30 and though "Holy hell!" My body must have needed it.
Cleaned up and headed out to do the mother's day card roundup and mass mailing. The sun was bright, the air was clean, the humidity was thankfully absent and there was a slight breeze blowing. It was a perfect Florida day. (Though I still prefer overcast dark clouds, torrential rain and wind, but hey, that's me.)
I picked out my cards and meandered through the store just looking. After a bit I headed a few doors down to our UPS store where Stacey (The ultra cool store owner) was in and began to chat as she processed my mail. She updated me on some problems they’d had with a former employee and caught me up on how David and Bart were doing. After a bit she introduced me to their new employee Nichol. Nichol and I got to talking and somehow it came up that she was Greek and Stacey made jokes about how she’s related to or knows everyone that comes into the store. I asked if she knew an old school friend of mine named Anna Maria and low and behold, she goes to church with her! Then she asked if I knew a Casey Gill. I was floored! Casey and I used to pal around in the late 80’s early 90’s at the club and in general. Last I’d heard he’d gone into the military. Well sure enough it was the same Casey and he’s Nichol’s cousin. They talk regularly and she’s going to put us back in touch. He lives in San Diego now and comes back to visit every so often. (Beginning to look like California really is where I need to be.)
Stacey, Nichol and I talked for about 2 hours and then I finally loaded up and came back home. Not much happened in my time out, but it was all good and I laughed a lot. I guess that’s the important thing.
My tree is green and bushy again. They haven’t cut it down and I’m happy. I wish John was home.
