Two weeks ago, about that, my brother complained of something really weird with his computer. Don't ask me why, because I don't remember now, but the first thing I did was borrow my PC-savvy friend's hard drive diagnostic and go to town. It turns out that it's perfectly ok...well, intact anyway. So, I decided that maybe I had better turn on the computer (supposedly it's...

With absolutely no thanks to the $70 battery backup/surge protector I own, yesterday's storm damaged my computer. Hurray for hour of diagnostics and expensive repairs!
Bloody hell that was an instense storm. One of my electrical outlets blew out, and the hail hasn't even melted everywhere yet.

the homepage thing is driving me nuts.
I wasn't in the cities when it started hailing; I was up at my parents' in Centerville and it rained a little but mostly just looked foreboding. then nothing really happened. those clouds were pretty awesome though.

Yeah, apparently I totally missed the hail. 
I am sad for my broken TV. It lived a full, long life of 14 years, even through that nasty fall when it tried to take my own life. (It was the TV or me. I won.)
There's a snobbish part of me that's disgusted for coveting a television, but fuck it. It played DVDs, the rare video game, and was a marvelous source of...

I'm an hour and a half late on the birthday wish, but
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
Sorry about your TV. I'd be sad too.

I hate group assignments.
Group paper for Interpersonal Communications: watch movie. Write 3 page paper discussing 3 problem areas of communication seen in the film. Include the overall theme of the film, the "right way to be communicatuhn,'" and lastly (this was actually in bold font on the assignment sheet), do not summarize the film!
So, I don't know how the rest...

Your lack of love for BK concerns me. But yes, Boy #2 has got more going for him than that.
Sorry to hear about your group work woes. Personally, I think group papers should be BANNED from the entire school system. "Oh, but some day you'll get into the real world and have to work with other people." Fuck other people. Fuck the real world too while we're at it. I'm working for myself as a contracted designer. I may have to kiss ass to clients, but in the real world I will never have to write a paper with other people.
I feel that if you end up being a neurosurgeon or whatev, you probably wont be writing a whole lot of group papers either. Then again, I've never been a neuro-anything, so I really wouldn't know. Maybe you kids have to get together and write about brains on a daily basis.

opinions, schmuschminions.
though in the end, I think I'd prefer to have to rewrite a 3-page "group" paper alone than to even attempt the 20-page one I have to write over the next few days.
ew. are you graduating this year? or next year? or anytime soon? as for me, today is my last fucking day of school ever until I decide I hate the real world and want to go back. what.. the hell.

My high school Japanese teacher won Minnesota's Teacher of the Year award last week. I'm so happy for him. I've been bragging about him for years; it's about time he was recognized. He really is an amazing teacher; I'm about bursting with pride.

teachers are so cool when they are.. uh.. cool. they make me want to rethink my whole "hating on all of humanity" thing I've got going.
also, we were at the Muddy Pig tonight and I saw the guy that I thought was you before! I'm glad it wasn't you because he seems like he might be some kind of elitist dick. I mean, what the fuck's his deal, not being you and whatever.
I hear you on the end-of-semester (or college career GASP!) shit. I gave a presentation tonight on a paper that's only about 20% done and it was pretty horrible, hence the need to visit the bar afterward. I also have to read an entire textbook, study for and take three finals, and write 80% of said paper by 12:00 on Wednesday, in addition to the fact that I have to work and I have a little bit of a life outside this shit.
nonetheless, there's always time for beer, so if you ever feel the need, you can always call on me and the Dr for a good angsty alcoholy time.

There's always art history if you can't get your art skillz down. What is your major then?
They're all conspiring against me.
Section 8 wants to do their annual inspection of my apartment during finals, and thinks that I should skip a day's classes for the privilege. Fuck them.
My parents see to it that I never approach or end a semester with a positive outlook. Without their support, I would not be the shadow of a man you [probably don't] know...

Smarty-pants? Eh, not really. I go to an art school, so rarely do you have to know facts and shiz, you just have to create crap that doesn't look like a 3 year old did it. You do, however, have to do mega participation.

so here's a creepy question I just now decided to ask...
do you hang out at the Muddy Pig? I haven't seen a picture of you in FOREVER but I could've sworn I saw you there.. uhh.. a month ago. if not, I have to apologize to some random dude for staring at him trying to figure out if it was you.
and if it WAS you, there is no excuse to walk in and out of the bar that many times and distract me with your DAMN COAT and your LOOKING LIKE YOU OR NOT YOU.
either way, uh, I like the Muddy Pig.

we usually go to the Happy Gnome on Mondays, by the way. little known secret, they've been showing history's greatest short-lived Fox sitcom (Arrested Development) on dvd for a couple months, and um, it's the best thing ever. don't tell your friends!
so uh yeah it might take a bit of convincing/booze/money/hookers to get us to go bowling instead of sitting on our fat asses watchin' the movin' screen.
