Motto: I should have gone to free credit report dot com, I could have seen this coming at me like an atom bomb.

 

 > I made a video yesterday. Some of the folks at the theater stumbled upon the Emo Kid video… it made me realize that I needed to actually work out those small ideas I had into “The stupid video of nothing 3”

 

 > I recently realized that Serj Tankian’s name is not pronounced with a long ‘a’ sound, but instead with an “aw” sound. Serj Tawnkian. The fact that I just NOW realized this proves that I’m white.

 > Speaking of Serj Tankian, I just got on Wikipedia to see if anybody wrote anything about System of a Down’s hiatus. I got distracted like I always do, and I ended up reading about their singles. I read that their song “Kill Rock’n’Roll” was inspired by a rabbit that guitarist/vocalist Daron Malakian hit with his car one night. When he stopped his car and went back to the rabbit, he decided to name the rabbit “rock n’ roll.” If you pay attention to the lyrics, makes the song make perfect sense. It takes the song from a serious song about Rock artists being overwhelmed by drugs and dying inside, to a rabbit dying at night. “Eat all the grass that you want, accidents happen in the dark.” That’s just weird.

 

 > I’ve been reading a LOT about Mac computers, iTunes, iPods, and most of all, the iPhone. Combine all of that with my PS3 and Flat Screen HDTV things, and I’m only 2800$ away! Horray!

 

Top 5: Things I’m looking forward to in the future…

 

5. July 27 “Scars on Broadway” – album by a band of the same name featuring ½ of System of a Down.

 

4. June 27 “Wall-E”

 

 

3. July 11^th “The new iPhone 3G” – I can’t get one that day, or probably at all, but I’m still interested

 

2. KU starting back up…

 

1. Putting Pizza in the Oven- and then Eating it.

 > I watched Kung Fu Panda with Christine on Saturday. (its where I got my motto for today) I would highly recommend it to anybody in need of something to turn a shitty day around. We both went into that movie fresh off of work and both a little stressed out. We came out of it pretty damned happy with life. We had one of the most important conversations of our entire relationship later that night. It was a good damned day all together. I’m still pretty jacked about the whole thing.

 

 > Facebook is crazy.

 > I am hungry.

 

 > I feel good. I’m not sure if it’s a residual effect from Saturday, if it’s cause I’ve had the day off so far, because I get the day off with Christine tomorrow… or possibly the pizza in the oven… or maybe from that dump I just took.

 > I said that last bit both because it was true, and also as a segway into my next point. We all know that I’m an advocate of Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader series. They make my trips to the non-porta-potty here in the house trips to a realm of enlightenment and entertainment. In the past two days alone, I got the material I will use in my Top 5: and my quotes….

 

Top 5: Amazing Anagrams (stolen from Uncle John’s Curiously Compelling Bathroom Reader)

2. “JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE” becomes “I’M A JERK, BUT LISTEN”

Inspirational Quotes: (also stole from uncle john)

“ Be what you are and say what you like because those to mind don’t matter, and those who matter, don’t mind “
         - Dr. Seuss -

” What would you attempt to do if you knew you would not fail? “
         - Dr. Robert Schuller –

 

Motto: Whack-a-Mole means two things… One PG and one NC-17

 

 > I haven’t thought this much about my life in a long time. When I don’t have to do anything else, I have the joy of being able to really relax and reflect on shit. Today I’ve had the past 5 hours to do just that. It’s pretty sweet. It is a good time to just… detoxify my self. Free stress and other shit from my psyche.

 

 > I’ve been watching a lot of “Scrubs” lately. That show is good. Really good.

 > Wendy’s is trying too hard. They haven’t found their niche yet. Hardee’s has the thick burger and the big stuff. Taco bell is cheap. McDonald’s is fast. Wendy’s doesn’t’ have SHIT. Wendy’s is only good for a large group of people who can’t necessarily agree on what they want to eat.

 

 > I started two videos last night, but I didn’t finish them today. I’d be willing to bet that neither of them ever gets finished. Don’t worry though, you aren’t missing much if that’s the case. Neither of them were very good. (Redneck Weather Report and How to Piss of Your Girlfriend Edition III)

 

 > Tyrel Reed met the president. I spooned with a Division I national Champion AND I lost a dunking competition to a guy who has met the President of the United States. Can you say that?

 > I just felt like writing a few things. I’ve pretty much covered them all. I like both my jobs. I don’t like my awesome minimum wages- but a least I can drive to work without that sinking “OH MY GOD I WANT TO KILL MYSELF” feeling that I always used to get… Always.

 

Maybe there’s something wrong with me.

 

Maybe not.
