An older, slightly deprecated blog. "Blog." What an uncomfortable word.

Holy fucking shit

I have more than one post with this title, I am sure of this.


The weather outside is crazier than it's been as long as I can remember, and I did something crazy in it:
I ran the mile and a half or so back to my car, from Smith hall where I had my Chemistry exam, in the pouring rain. It was good fun. The drive back home was a terrible bitch, however.

Useff posted this on an internet forum and I must say, I've never laughed harder from one mostly innocent picture.

Good God

I'm getting back into my bad habits. This is just one day though, I can spring back.




Also, this sandwich is delicious.

Today, I listened to Hope in the car and Coral Fang while I was on my feet.

Hope - Non Prophets (Sage Francis on the mic and Joe Beats on Production)



Coral Fang - The Distillers




I have a discrete math exam tomorrow morning and



Actually that's all I have to say. It's quite self-explanatory in my opinion.

I am a big fan of blogs, however

Some people really must learn to distinguish when the color of their text and their background conflict badly.

I found those links just now, in a couple minutes of clicking on the Blogger navbar.

People are really something else.
I listened to this while walking around campus today:



Highlights:
  • Who the hell knows? This was really strange to listen to. Jamie Stewart is a very angry man who seems to have a lot of terrible relationships with other men and bad things build up inside of him. But I'm listening to it again right now, so I guess you could say I enjoyed it. If I had to pick a song, I would have to pick Fabulous Muscles. One really must hear it to appreciate it.
Then came Antics by Interpol:



Highlights:
  • I thought the entire album was fantastic. One track of note is track #2, titled Evil. But the whole thing is fantastic and not about homosexual relationships or child abuse, which makes it somewhat different from Fabulous Muscles.

Shlimazl - Yiddish for a chronically unlucky person.

A wealth of fun information
Words hardest to translate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Today, while walking to class I listened to this:



Highlights:
  • Hitchin' A Ride
  • The Grouch
  • Last Ride In
  • Suffocate
Then, I listened to this:



Highlights:
  • Abra Cadaver
  • Two-Timing Touch and Broken Bones
  • Walk, Idiot Walk
That's the last of the highlights though, notice it's only the first three songs. That is because I was at my car at that time. Also, I found the car keys in the glove compartment. What the hell?! How did I leave them there? How was I able to walk to the car with them yesterday morning, put them in the glove compartment, and then immediately forget I put them there? I'm becoming senile in my old age. Damn.

Observations for Monday, September 13th 2004:

  • Internet Explorer is a wack piece of shit. Webpages look and run better in other browsers, like the one I'm using. If you're using IE, do yourself a favor and click on the "Get Firefox" button at the bottom of this page.
  • It would seem that there is some sort of mystical balance in the universe that keeps things from being too good or too shitty. I was having one of the best streaks of good stuff in my life, and it had been going on for a while. Today, on this rotten Monday, my luck turned around

    and punched me in the forehead

    and then peed on me. My keychain with my car key and house key seems to have disappeared into thin air. The irony of it, is that it must be somewhere in the house, or around the perimeter of the house. I've done a very thorough search to no avail. How do you lose - not misplace, but lose your keys in your own house? I don't know, but I have accomplished this most excellent feat. School is getting "weird" too, I guess. That's the only way to describe it right now. Weird.
  • I need to post on here more, for me. Writing is good, and getting thoughts out onto paper, or in this case, onto the internet can be helpful. I'm a fairly creative person and not such an awful writer, so it's not too far fetched for me to post something with substance here every day.
  • I still have to finish bringing the stuff from my UD page here, so that it can be seen by more. It wasn't that good anyway, but I just want it here. Blogger is powerful and easy.
  • I ought to get a job. I was talking to Pooja at the Gallery (mall) in Philadelphia (city) the other day (24 hour period according to most) and we were talking about the kiosks that people set up in the mall. She said that those things are probably losing money, because no one really goes to them and buys things. Then I agreed, then I disagreed because I remembered this time in my life when I had money. Money changes things. Money enables one to walk up to a kiosk, notice something that catches your eye, and buy that product without thinking twice about it. Think about it: if you're one of those people lucky enough to have money, haven't you bought things spontaneously? If you had money in the past, didn't you do this too? Yeah, thought so.
  • I'm all out of observations. Useff tells me that The Sims 2 was "released" last weekend.
  • The Black Table: highly entertaining and informative website with all kinds of good things. I've linked to here before.
