Whoops

So I've totally forgot about the whole posting about my life and stuff. I guess that I didn't feel the need to explain trivial stuff that much in the past few weeks. I finished Christmas with little to no injury at all and am looking forward to the new year. What is my New Year's resolution you might be asking? I'm going to eat a sandwich. I hope to fulfill this goal more than once. That's about all I think I'm going to chill out in bed for a while.

Sadistically yours

I saw the squirrels and they were married...

Sorry about not really updating this thing in a while, I've been very busy. As most of you are probably aware Christmas is only a week away, and I, for one, am not completely done with the stuff that I need to do. I still need to buy something for my parents, although they haven't told me anything about what they want. I also need to find a present of Shanna's that I either lost or threw away (DOH!). But all in all I'm very much in the Christmas mood. I have pretty lights draped over my entire livingroom. My tree (which until recently looked like the leaning tower of Pisa) is standing nice and cozy in the corner with some present underneath. I've been very fortunate this year and wish that everyone have a wonderful holiday season and be merry toward one another. After all, 'tis the season to be jolly, no fa la la la la's needed. So deck the hall, dash through the snow (if any), and go for a sleigh ride. Merry Christmas to all.

How is everybody doing today? Fantastic. So anyways, sorry I haven't been updating very much lately I've been extremely busy with some stuff, but that stuff is over now finally. Hurray! So last night was the big concert which we were completely unprepared for. We sucked a whole bunch. I've had some bad concerts in my life, but that one was terrible. We were rushing, off on timing, and overall it was just a grim fiasco. Luckily, the only person I knew in the audience was Shanna. She was our page turner for one of the songs. I was completely exhausted after the concert seeming as how I was there at 3 p.m. and only had gotten about 3 hours of sleep. But I still had to go into work no matter how tired I was. I've been trying to get a co-worker of mines computer to support this sound card I bought for her but it has been a failed effort. Christmas is soon approaching and I'm overjoyed with the fact that I have off Christmas Eve and Christmas Day! It will be a nice change for once. Well anywho, I think I'm off to do some errands so I will update later and have a wonderful holiday season.

My phone is no more

So yesterday when I went to see "The Incredibles", I dropped my phone on the hard cement floor. Since then I can't talk to people on it. I can hear them talking, but they hear nothing I say. So I'm going to go to Cingular and see if they can either fix it, or get a new one. I kind of want a new phone anyways because mine is just weird. There is no antenna on my phone and everytime somebody calls me a weird buzzing sound goes through any electronics I have near it. That's about all for right now, it's very very cold in my pad and I don't want to spend money on heat so I'm just going to freeze instead.

Mission Accomplished

After a very long time of procrastonation, I have finally finished my x-mas shopping (oh yeah and shanna, I'm still not telling). I only slept for about 3 hours today because we had another miniature concert tonight. It went very well though I might add. I don't think that we are ready yet for the big concert on the 14th 7:30 U-ROCK BE THERE! Sorry had to promote again. I have practice yet again tommorrow at 11:30. I think I will have turned into a zombie by then. My voice has become astoundingly higher than what it used to be. I don't know if it's that I'm getting better or my voice is maturing (I'd like to think it's a little of both). The women in our group are super quiet so the guys are forced to sing extremely pianissimo. But none the less it still is fun (except for Mike's occasional groping of me... pervert). I've been playing GTA San Andreas for about 3 or more hours a day. I just can't stop myself. I'm at the DMV right now improving my driving skills. I don't think that the DMV wants people to do donuts though. But anyways that's all I've got for now. I hope to post again sometime soon.
Merry X-mas

Being lazy at all costs

Well it's been about two weeks or so since I last did dishes or cleaned my house. I am a true bachelor. I've started eating off of my tupperware dishes so that won't have to clean any off. I think that I'm going to eat off of styrofoam plates, bowls and cups from now on. I despise cleaning dishes. It's the one thing I hate about cleaning. Everything else I have no problem with. But those damn dishes are pure evil. I also thought of yet another alternative to my dish crisis. I will stop eating and drinking (at least in my house). Then there won't be anything to wash. But anyways I must go to bed right now otherwise I will be a very cranky wildebeast.

My real tree is more lopsided and has actual pine needles. Posted by Hello

Oh Christmas Tree

How is everyone doing on this wonderful Sunday morn'? Me I'm feeling quite well. I had an action packed Saturday full of danger and wonder (well more driving and sawing but you know, dramatics). Me and Shanna were scheduled to meet with my mother to go and hack a poor innocent tree down at 11a.m. in Rockton, Illinois (I guess those are the best trees ever). So me and Shanna decided to stay at her brother's house because we were there until like 3a.m. and too lazy to drive back to Janesville only to come back to Beloit again. So we slept there with their 3 cats running around all night. Of course I forgot that I am kind of allergic to cats and they cause me to wheeze in the morning when I wake up. So I awoke in at 7:30 and started to sound like that dying kid in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom™. So I drank a whole bunch of soda and took a hot shower and felt better. Nobody in the household was awake yet so I started playing GTA San Andreas and complete my firefighter mission (Oh yeah you know it, 100% flame retardant baby). I woke a very sleepy Shanna up at 10:30 and we got ready to go to my mom's house. We followed her down to Rockton and picked out a tree that looked very nice (I think we were very tired at the time). So we got the tree home first off only to find that the trunk was too thick to fit into the tree stand, and secondly that the bottom was extremely uneven and the only way the tree stands up is to prop it up against the wall. DOH! Other than that not a whole lot of stuff happening. I have made a drawing of what my new tree looks like enjoy.

I smooshed my face against my scanner. It looks very scary... except my nose got flattened. Posted by Hello

Master slacker

So last night I was at work and was playing my PS2 for about 3 hours... It gets incredibly boring and there really isn't anything for me to do. My job is basically to make sure that nothing horrible happens, which 95 percent of the time does. So that's about all take a look at the cool pic :)

I'm not quite dead yet.

I've been very late in posting due to the fact that I've become addicted to yet another Grand Theft Auto™ game, San Andreas. In my personal opinion it is about 5 times as addictive as cocaine. So many cool things to do on this game like, spray paint graffitti, ride on BMX bikes and do cool tricks, and same as always, kill lots of people. There are so many new features in this edition that I just can't describe all of them without taking up about 4 pages of untamed joy. Our little performance last night went pretty well. We only sang 4 songs, and they weren't our best. Our real concert is on DECEMBER 14, @ 7:30 P.M. U-ROCK DENMARK THEATRE, BE THERE. Sorry for that plug, I always feel the need to promote. Well anywho I must be off to do more stuff.
