i need more room for favorite SGs.
and i also need to stop enjoying the christian bands. because, as i have said many a time, i don't need metal kids talking to me about jesus. underoath and i would get along swimmingly if they'd stop that. and i really have a problem with the format going on tour with switchfoot (who, by the way, gets played every five minutes at work... boooh!). i don't care what your beliefs are and i completely respect your right to use your creativity to express them, but i'd really like to enjoy your music without the preachy stuff.
in other news (though also religion-related)... the weekend was interesting. my aunt's memorial service turned into a self-centered priest giving us a salvation lesson. the bright side was that he talked about how he taught catholic school for 11 years. 3 of them were teaching girls and 8 were teaching boys... and he liked teaching the boys better... what do YOU think of when i say that?
you're not the only one.
but it was good to see everyone, despite the circumstances. i got to have a long talk with one of my uncles who i haven't seen in YEARS. that was nice. we talked about my aunt and about my cousin (who has also talked about suicide) and his ex-wife and my sister marrying the Asshole and... it was good.
in reality, the whole weekend was just like a really fucked up family reunion. so it was fun, but the fun felt weird and wrong and kind of empty... i don't know how to explain it. maybe there'll be words later.
currently, i'm trying to rearrange my class schedule to better fit my work schedule... is this working? not really.
but erin's on the phone and i need a cigarette. more school whining later.

you know man-boy relationships were common back in the renaissance. in fact it was viewed as a rite-of-passage. da vinci never had a relationship with a women buyt he had his boys. thats modern euro actually being useful...wow.
rearranging the schedule is often a pain and doesnt get far. but try.
and family reunions are good even if they are like that.
