I couldn't take the folsom street fair. I could have done without the flabby geriatric butt cheeks hanging out of the chaps but that wasn't really the problem. At least that was kinda funny and I'm glad there's a place people can go and air out their flabby old butt if that's what they're into. What I couldn't take was the crowd. Too many people...

I'm gonna have an oxy-acetylene set up in my garage. I'm gonna burn some metal and do some gas welding. Hopefully, I won't burn my garage down. That would be bad, particularly for the people that live directly above it.
On an almost entirely unrelated note, I went diving last weekend and got to use my fancy-ass underwater camera. I got one roll of slides...

Hey Nice Bike! BTW I'm currently looking to sell my SUV and Get a motorcycle. Any advice on bike choice and info about it would be cool. I live in the Northeast .Can't find any complete info on winter riding relating to snow and the effects of what comes with it ( Salt & Sand). I killed a car bicycled for a year and now i miss it and wanted to merge the need for speed and the feel only a bike can give.

Sorry refresh is not the way to go.
I'm back. Actually, I've been back for awhile but my account expired while I was gone. Getting it back required effort (not very much, but I'm lazy) and it took me a while to decide that I should renew it. I did eventually come to the conclusion that I should renew.

Oh yeah, in the process of reclaiming my account, it looks like I've fallen off of people's friends lists. Can I still be your friend?

"Hi, I'm floppy." Jesus christ that's an embarassing thing to say to someone while meeting them face to face for the first time. Many months ago, when I entered my credit card information and chose the first random word that popped (or flopped) into my mind as a user name, I never could have imagined that I was going to be standing in a restaurant...

heh. i was just talking to zero today, whom i met in person for the first time, about some of the other people on the site, and it was wierd, like living in a futuristic scifi novel where everyone has fucked up names.

hmm. i can see how you would think i'm gay, because i usually think of myself that way as well, but i honestly get more action from the boys. i have yet to figure out why; its not for lack of effort. 
I'm leaving on August seventh. Flopette (that's my new name for my girlfriend) and I are going to meet an old guy (in his 70's) with a boat on Vacouver island. We're going to spend a month sailing. I need to get an ascot, a blue blazer, some white trousers, and a yachting hat (like mr. howel from giligan's island).

hi. your squid kicks much ass.
I have a plush monkey, a Steve McQueen wall tapestry, a sink full of dishes, a garage full of motorcycles, and an destructive urge to waste my time on making animated gifs.
I'm kinda sick too... I mean I'm ill. Like I have a cold or somethin'.

That's a picutre of me abusing a rental bike in Switzerland. It's not a very good picture but it's not my fault. I was on the bike.
When I see someone do a wheelie, I think to myself, "good job. I'm proud of you and I'd like to mentally thank you for entertaining me and brightening my day." It's taken me years to realize that...

a halo does not sound like fun. i'm glad for you that you didn't have to go through that.
before i had my surgery, i got to go through the hospital and meet a couple other kids who'd had the same surgery i was going to get. one girl had the same surgery as me and then had to lay in bed, without being able to sit up at all, for 6 months. the doctor's warned me "you may have to do that too." i told them "that's NOT going to happen." and thankfully, it didn't.
the full rods aren't so bad. i still slump in my own way. besides, i gained 2 and a half inches from it. instead of being 4'11", i'm 5'1". heh.
i'm curious, what kind of medications did they give you? i was on morphine at first, which gave me lovely dreams, but they took me off it cuz they said i was getting addicted and put me on demarol. the demarol sucked; exactly 5 seconds after i hit the button for a little more painkiller, i'd have to puke, and not having anything in my stomach made that an even more unpleasant experience. if i hadn't been so doped up, i would have been miserable.
i also got valium before surgery, since i'm afraid of needles, and tylenol 3 with codeine after i got out of hospital.

I've been all busy and shit. I had to finish a project for work. That's boring so that's all I'll say about that. Went camping / dirt biking several weeks ago as previously announced. I did, indeed, drink a bud from a can. I almost started laughing when the guy handed it too me. We were surrounded by mullets. Many deliverence jokes were made. People...

heh. that's funny, thinking the back brace was a bulletproof vest. 
i remember once, my mom was helping me change the shirt underneath, so i was laying on my back on the counter (this was before i taught myself how to do it on my own to spare myself the humiliation), and my little brother (who was about 2 or 3 at the time) asked "is mommy gonna change your diaper?"
i was supposed to wear the shell for a year. but i've always had a defiant streak, and i would often walk around with it off at my friends houses or when my parents weren't home. i lived in eastern washington at the time, where it often gets to 105 degrees in the summer, and it was torture to have to wear that thing. plus, i looked like a boobless blob, so everyone was always asking me if i was a boy or a girl.
my rods run the entire length of my back, from the base of my neck to my pelvic bone. my back is still crooked in spite of that, but nowhere near as bad as it was. i remember the physical therapy too, how they had to teach me all over again how to walk down stairs or get out of bed, but i didn't have to deal with paralysis like you did.

It's my birthday. Next year, I'll be officially old. I'm going camping / dirt biking this weekend. I am super white trash. I might even bring my gun.

whoa. you have rods too? mine was indeed for scoliosis, what about yours?
funny enough, my body doesn't seem to be able to handle any other metal; all of my piercings (except my tongue) refused to heal, bled daily, or grew out.
oh, and happy birthday, a little late.

Last week I was an elephant seal. This week I'm a mexican wrestler. As such, I like to spend time hangin upside down from the molding over doorways.
I can't wait 'til my girlfriend comes home so's I can put her in a headlock.

Actually, I decided on the camel clutch instead. I pinned her in like five moves. I'm pretty good against people that are smaller than me.
