Today's business has included the following (in order):
* Woke up at the lamentably early time of 9:30am.
* Got my car washed. Finally. After 6 years of ownership, this is the first time I've had it washed. Its colour has now gone from dusty, dusty red to bright, shiny red. Yay.
* Got the oil changed in said car.
* Cleaned the bathroom from...

Guh. Forgot to take my Lexapro before leaving for work. SSRI withdrawal isn't so good. 
I take it because if I don't, I'm maniacally depressed, and (of course) I go into withdrawal which makes me dizzy, kind of like how vertigo makes one dizzy, dry-mouthed, and extremely aware of how lonely I'd be every day if I didn't take it.

synnove:
the comment you left on my set made me laugh 
Those awful cult-of-personality-promoting bumper stickers which read "W The President" make me want to gag.
The stickers have, however, an antithesis, which now adorns the back of my car:
No W
Hopefully this one doesn't get ripped off by some do-gooding Metairian like all the rest of the anti-conservative/anti-Bush stickers that have been on my car at one time or another have been. (Strangely,...

Quote for today, courtesy of that other place I hang out:
Using proper spelling and grammar is the electronic equivalent to shaving your face or washing your hair. It is more image. If you don't care if people think you are illiterate, type however you like.
I've been sick for most of the past week, with SARS or the Mongolian death flu or some shit. I missed work Thursday and Friday and spent the weekend in a groggy stupor while I slowly recovered.
I'm feeling mostly better now except for the occasional juice-filled cough (
) and the need to blow my nose every couple minutes.
Still haven't seen SW:EP3. Waiting...

I'm going to see VNV Nation tomorrow night! And weeeeee!
This will be my third time seeing VNV live, and the first time since November 2001, when they were on tour to promote the release of Futureperfect.
I haven't got a stitch to wear!

Damn, someone already made a naked joke. Nine days ago. God, I'm slow.
Anti-panic meds and alcopop = a good remedy for insomnia.
I've been combining 16mg of Gabitril with a 12oz bottle of Smirnoff Twisted raspberry in the absense of my regular sleeping pills (Ambien). Quite a fortuitous combination; I was able to sleep for 17 hours (!) on Sunday this way. This is quite good because I normally have godawful, unrelenting insomnia, so whenever I don't...

Damn, I must've been really drunk when I wrote my last entry, more drunk than I thought. I'm a spelling/grammar pedant, and that previous entry is full of spelling and grammatical errors.
Anyway, I'm thinking of asking the SG Advice Column for some advice, because I can't seem to figure out how to stop being lonely and so disillusioned with going out for any reason....

sophie:
thank you for the good advice!
mmm. an activity to relieve boredom brought on by being jaded... my first question is, alone or with someone else?
alone, i recommend long walks. if you have to drive to a place that's solitary and somewhat beautiful, do it. i like to sometimes walk out over the river next to my town, and sometimes walk along the railroad tracks. specifically a good activity for late afternoon.
with someone else, i must recommend bowling. it's a hysterical thing if you don't do it often. guaranteed to make you giggle.
additionally, keeping a journal, like your own private one, does wonders in my experience. helps you crystallize feelings.

So, tonight, as it happened.
First, I met up with Kayna, Parikhan, monastrell, JasonDemon, junkllama and a non-SG member who seems to be very familiar with nearly everyone he encounters — I couldn't help but place his face and mannerisms as a DJ I used to know at Detroit's Leland City Club, which I haven't attended since late 2000.
After that,...

Ummm, just out of curiousity, even if you got me to the movie theater, which wouldn't have happened, how did you guys plan on getting me inside the theater?
Heheheheh, and it's not agoraphobia. It's movie theaters. It's the cost of movies. It's how fucking uncomfortable the seats are (in EVERY movie theater i've ever been), it's that i fucking hate the way they Digitally Master the audio and slam it so hard that the dynamics are completely nonexistant and it's so loud you can't really decipher what you're hearing. and then you have to hope other people in the theater don't piss you off. And then to go with a group of people? Yeah, i know, let's all hang out in a dark room ignoring each other for a few hours. That's really fun for a group of people to do. And i especially didn't want to see The Guide until after i read it. I can't read a book after i see the movie. I'll stick to watching the DVD in the comforts of my own home thank you.
All in all, i give you all credit for trying, but you guys definitely need a much more 'put together' plan if you wanna trick/kindap me.
In the end, glad you enjoyed the show

What preytell is a POP3 or IMAP account?
Just got back from the Angeli's/Snake & Jakes meetup, so I added a bunch of friend requests. If you don't recognize my username, check my pics, you'll probably recognize me there. (I was the guy wearing the "I♥BRAINS" shirt.)

well good to know you're getting to know the locals
junkllama:
goddamn! I'm never gone live down that night, am I??
so what'd I ramble to you about, anyway? i've heard some Kayna and ProphetNoise's complaints already!
I swear, it was that Miracle Tonic Kayna stole from the circus!!

I'm sorry to jump the gun on you like that. As I started to mention, I just recently tried to persuade a local shop to take down the Kanji flash they are using due to massive inaccuracies, so maybe I was hyper sensitive. I have edited the public post.
Thank you
