Well, now I want a parrot

AND WHAT ELSE?!

I don’t know a thing but I really can fake it quite well.

I'm still kicking. Been very busy, I'll be back to this soon I think.

Tick



tock

Not a chance, fancy chance pants fancy pants chance pants fancy fancy

Wait in line
'Till your time
Ticking clock;
Everyone stop

Everyone's saying different things to me
Different things to me

Do you believe
In what you see
There doesn't seem to be anybody else who agrees with me

Do you believe
In what you see
Motionless wheel
Nothing is real
Wasting my time
In the waiting line

Someone up there was listening...

You may recall me whining about Paul Anderson and how he is going to ruin the Castlevania movie...well, check this:

"I guess fans of the seemingly immortal CASTLEVANIA videogame series can relax -- your side-scrolling hero will not be brought to screens under the direction of noted gamer and franchise destructor Paul WS Anderson after all."

Not that Sylvain White is much better, but I will take what I can get.

My full name anagrams into "a vile MinD dawnS chaos"

Everyone has a right to my opinion

I don't care how old you are or what generation you're from, if you don't think Sting/The Police made good music, you are wrong.

I am bored, and Heathcliff is a terrible comic strip

Heathcliff is trying to watch the news in order to gain a better understanding of the events that shape his world. His owner belittles him with an off-handed remark about the cat's obesity.





Heathcliff is an alcoholic as well as a glutton. A lifeguard mistakes his belligerent flask waving and hand motions for a desire for sunblock, while completely disregarding the fact that cats do not need sunblock.



Heathcliff is intoxicated at the county fair and has resorted to violence to express his displeasure with an accurate reading of his grotesque corpulence.

You had me at "Kool-aid"

The apartments are about what I expected. The studio unit was like a big dorm room with a kitchen (and is what I'm most likely going to end up with if I live here), and the one-bedroom was a little bigger, and, you know, had a bedroom... but it's about $50 more per month. And I'm cheap.

I didn't think to bring my camera in with me, but it's not that important. Allow me to take a moment to tell you what IS important about this tour.

Besides the basic information packet and application, the landlord handed me this little number:



Let me zoom in to make that a little clearer:





That's right. Along information such as the required criminal background check, monthly fees, and all of that "business-talk," there was a bastion of light. Forest Park Apartments... are KOOL PLACES TO LIVE

If that doesn't sell you, I don't know what will. That's a kool-aid packet with a pun that isn't really a pun stuck to it.

The landlord was also really big on telling me about how the window blinds are included in the room. Thanks for that. I was concerned about supplying my own window blinds, but you've thoughtfully alleviated the stress of that situation. I was also concerned about whether or not my living situation would be kool enough. Again, you have put my mind at ease.




ANYWAY, I need to get an actual part-time job set up in Peoria for this fall. I've socked enough money away to pay for 3-4 months of this place, but I need at least some steady income. Feel free to tell me if you know of any good, flexible places to work. Ideally, a job where I don't have to talk to customers. Or serve food. Although bartending might be interesting...hmm.

I'm meeting with an academic adviser on Monday morning, so with any luck I will be registered for classes next week. This is the first time I've been excited about taking classes since...uh...forever. Alright I'm starting to crash from my caffeine high, so I'm left with either slumping into a jittery pseudo-sleep or putting more into my system.

Ha ha, as if there were ever more than one option. Coffee time.

Imma devastatin' your placement test, ICC

99% overall, shoop da whoop.


I am taking a tour of the apartment at 2:00 today, so, more on that later.

I'm very seriously considering purchasing a hamster this fall. Need ideas for a name. Here's a picture of a hamster to help you come up with something:

I like turtles.

This is just my sense of humor. I don't expect you to understand.

Long lost relations

It really is a good show...

On the next episode of House...!

A patient showing multiple, seemingly unrelated symptoms is put under the care of House and his team. House comes up with a brilliant solution within 5 minutes which appears to work (at some point the phrase "House was right" will be said.) until the patient has a seizure ("House was wrong!"). Multiple tests are run. It's not Lupus. During clinic hours, House makes a connection between the mystery patient and a mostly unrelated clinic patient and decides to take drastic measures which go against every medical practice law in the book.

Cuddy tries to stop House by taking the case out of his hands. House does what he wants anyway, to the dismay of Foreman and Cameron. Chase doesn't give two shits.

House saves the day at the last second, and everyone learns a valuable lesson.

Also, Vicodin.
