| so, yeah, this is gonna be a bitchy entry. You've been warned
So, I went to a party tonight. It was decent, until I lost my glasses, a friend's book, and just decided to come back early. lots of life has been pretty shitty lately. Like not getting housing next year. fucking spectacular. so, I sit here, feeling lonely. I've said it many times before, but I could really use a girlfriend right now. Or anyone to spoon with. I just feel so bad going to sleep, alone, so cold, even beneath my blankets. my choice of music probably doesn't help, but I'm too depressed to care. Gods, why do I have no luck? I mean, some things I have decent luck in, but a lot of important, serious things, I have no luck in at all. Thanks, whoever is in charge there. Way to make it all even. | comments: 2 comments or Leave a comment  |
| so yes, I now must be writing a short story for english. It will sadly come out trite and cliche, but oh well, I shan't care.
So, I may be going insane and tring to change majors again. Switch to comp sci. I suppose its really a matter of just bucking the fuck up and taking the two calc classes I need, and making an effort to find good comp sci teachers. I'm gonna talk to the relevant dean sometime soon, and pray I won't graduate late if I swap. | comments: Leave a comment  |

| ok, 3 mid-terms in 24 hours, ugh. I'm kinda crashing now, working on a poem for creative writing, gonna send it out tonight, but I'll post the current form here now, just for fun. Be harsh if necessary, I'll live. But I'll also cry. Like a little girl who just dropped her ice-cream on her dead mother's favorite dress.
I am called lazy But this is not the reflection As the mirror sees me Instead, that false watcher Spies the furtive nights Passed, lost in overpriced text Wanting of that stray light, That just-glimpsed flicker Which, having been found out May flee before me, dragging My interest, my overfull desire Toward obsession, unrelenting And likely irrelevant to any other One more object for late nights And quiet afternoons alone As it will be, until that flicker So alluring to my own eyes By turn of chance is the same Motion that my critics see Proper and prudent seeming So that, when I pass a mirror No more the bored-thin image Will say, alone, of me I have been called lazy | comments: 1 comment or Leave a comment  |

Damned decent. and no, I'm not having sex with beverly. sorry to disappoint the fans. anyway, off to anime club, peace.

| So JD and I are watching the first episode of stargate. There's a scene where they mention claymore mines, and I'm explaining them while watching.
'So its pretty much an assload of ball bearings propelled by an explosion and... um, and THOSE were titties.'
Yeah, random, full frontal nudity, in Stargate. I like stargate now. Thank you JD!

| so I seem to be, if not confused, at least basicly alone in my feelings about returning. Other thn hunting down a job (read call center most likely) I do not beleive I feel uneasy or regretful about returning. Now, everyone that does feel like that has good reasons, but it just makes for slight discomfort on my part. Anyway, its definately 9:30, and I've already gotten my books and have been working at cleaning the room. I've also come to a remarkable discovery. I'm going to get pneumonia from the AC unit unless I'm smart enough to turn it down when sleeping. Anyway, see everyone around, and I hope we all get together and cook tonight. Huzzah for groceries.

| so yeah, this is just a quicky post. In case you've all forgotten, which you may have, I'll be hosting whoever wants to coome to my house on saturday. Everyone's invited, so please don't make too many plans, as I don't want my first party to be a flop. anyway, I've got packing to do, I return to school tommorrow, so see most of you then.

| seriously, fuck 4:30 am. Honestly. that's the time right now, my dad woke me up, and I'm kinda sitting around waiting for 5:30 to drive to the airport to catch my 7am flight. This early morning shit feels like there are tiny hooks all over me, attached to lead fishing weights. I'm just being drug down by this not-quite-exactly-pain feeling in every muscle. but I can't lay down, or I'll sleep the the dead til 9. Shit. So yeah, today I begin my epic little voyage, one encompassing planes, trains, and automobiles. May the god that smites JD on a daily basis be slightly less angry at me during those stages of transportation, especially the air ones. When a train stops, it sits on the tracks. When a plane stops, well, it doesn't technically stop, and my life becomes a physics problem to learn where all my Dave-bits are.

| | Current Music: | Cake - sheep go to heaven | | Subject: | cop-out | | Time: | 10:15 pm | | Current Mood: | sick |
|
| okay, so last night was a cop-out. Apologies to one and all. I shall try to give a more full update now.
2 days left at Wendy's. That's excellent. But tommorrow is an 8 hour day. that's ass. sweaty stinky man-ass. and not the kind found on burgers either. But, somehow, I think I'll survive. It'll be the middle of the week, which isn't known for heavy traffic. and I just may get to leave early if there's a god. And then thursday is a mere 4 hours. Easy. The new girl is also making things a lot easier to get through, if she had some more meat on her bones (that's about all there is of her) she's be pretty cute. JD, I may have found a woman for you! except the fact that she's got a kid. heh, that dampens things. Still funny conversation though, so its all good.
Now, I have to talk about my foot for a minute. It's swollen like a motherfucking balloon. The same thing that bit me last time, with the hand, is now attacking my foot. But it got in like 7 bites this time, not just one or two. It's just really tight and very very slightly sore. But a severe inconvenience. and now I'm gonna be on it all day tommorrow. Shit.
So, 3 days til new york. Hot shit. very, very eager to get going. there seem to be events planned for a good portion of the time I'm there, so that's cool. That, and on the drive back we'll probably pass my house, so we can stop in and check out the boat (yay boat!).
Again, I'd like to remind everyone that the weekend of the 29th (I think) I'll be hosting any of the following people that wish to visit my home: JD, Jon, Mars, Rachel, Rissand Carly. I don't think that leaves anyone out, but if I've gone stupid from fire-ant bites and forgot your name, tell me.
Anyway, night all

| So shit, today was a crazy day. I had this insane dream, where I was being sued for downloading pictures from peoples sites, but I was like being sarcastic and pissing off all 15 lawyers the prosecution had. It was really great.
And then I locked myself out of my truck. So I had to wait til like 8 for my mom to finally realize something was wrong and come get me. Oh well. Then, to sleep. | comments: Leave a comment  |
| | Subject: | the titles | | Time: | 09:30 am | | Current Mood: | anxious |
|
| Why do I attract titles? I mean god damn people. at VF, I was swank the skank (funny stories for that, ask if you want), and at Tulane I am, of course, 'Crazy' Dave. Jeebus. Now the Wendy's crew has labeled me 'Super' Dave. Really, WTF people? I just don't get it. At all. But oh well. The good news of the week, Marissa's mom was kind enough to use the credit from Riss's ticket to finance my trip up. So my travel costs are virtually nil. I've got food and my share of hotels. Damn, that's gonna be NOTHING. I ends with me having a good chunk of change to go shopping for back to school. I'm gonna get a binary clock for sure now. Oh, that'll be fun.
So yeah guys, what the hell happened to the songs thing? I mean, you all know how much my music sucks, but you refrained from giving me advice? crazy children, crazy. But yeah, this trip is looking to be very, very sweet. I'm gonna be leaving on friday the 13th however, but for some reason that comforts rather than disquiets me. anything that seems to have negative luck on most people just seems to help me. Not sure why, but oh well. I'm going to a gun range with Tim to fire civil-war era weapons (he's a big civil buff, and he's having his re-enactment costume made as we speak). I haven't shot in SO long. like over a year for any real weapons. I'm gonna suck, but it'll be cool. They're civil war weapons, they're not accurate anyway.
The real challenge will be the vodka. I've got an assload of it here, but I need it to be THERE for when I'm at Tim's house. I will have to place it in a water bottle but I'm not sure whether taking it as carry-on or checked would be the better idea. I know my knife goes into checked baggage. That's obvious. But the vod, well, just not sure.
Ok, so about Wendy's. there's a girl there named brandi. She's moving to New Orleans with her girlfriend. She may be trying to get a job as a bartender there. If she does, oh hell yes free drinks. Hell yes. I don't think she'll be hard to find either, as she says she'll just meet me at the Pub or Oz if we ever go this year. seems she frequents them a lot. Huzzah for potential bartender-friends.
Yeah, so that's about it.
Wendy's days count: 8

| Today's lesson: DON'T take Devon canoeing.
Dear god. the girl is grossed out by ANYTHING. Ew, the water is nasty. Ew, there's a spider. Ew, the seat is wet. Ew, Dave smacked me in the face with a paddle and my brains is coming out my nose! god, she's so whiny! but optherwise, pretty decent trip. except the waking at 7:30 part. Fuck that. Seriously, FUCK THAT. just not workin for the Dave. At all.
So yeah, I just kinda realized that I've got exactly 2 weeks of Wendy's left. Shit. That's crazy. But great at the same time. I'm just getting tired of it. It's not working for me. I can't imagine EVER having to do something so ridiculous for any period of time longer than I have. I pray to whatever is out there that I never get stuck in a rut like those poor souls.
So, for the last few hours I've been in my rooms going through my music and hunting down the songs I don't like and chucking them. Not a HUGE number of them, but I'm noticing how limited my music is becoming through their exclusion. So, suggestions are welcome. Desired in fact. I humbly request that when you read this, you comment and leave the names of ten songs that I may like, preferrably ones you know I don't have, and that are fairly unknown, so as to avoid repeats. Have fun kiddies!

| its amazing that at 1 AM, there's NO ONE online. damn people, I thought we were college students. WTF.
Anyway, so little to tell here. My mom is back from taking the bar exam, and she's just plain crashed. I'm still getting through at Wendy's, its just getting boring now though. really boring. And I wish it was over and done with and I was doing something worthwhile. I'm supposed to go canoeing on sat with my dad and devon, which should be fun. I love canoeing, though I do it FAR less often than I should.
Now I'm mostly planning on what I need to get for going back to school. I'm thinking that I really wanna get cookware and make meals on weekends instead of bruffing. I dunno. I'm basicly in for intro to personality, I just need to give the teacher the over-load form and I'm good. Score for me. That makes my sched:
Japanese 1 abnormal psych intro to personality Prob Stat Comp Sci 2
Fun stuff here. though it does mean I will have classes after 2 now, which makes me a sad, sad panda. but its cool. I've convinced my mom of the trip to Ny, and surprisingly it seems she does not feel too harshly about the driving instead of flying. I'm....unsettled at the least. It makes me suspicious, but oh well. I'll take what I can get here.
Basicly, the next few weeks are gonna be just trying to get by here while waiting for school. I miss you guys.

| Ok, so we all saw my Highlander 2 rant. well, there's a comic I frequent online, called theatre hopper. Just comics about new releases. Well, I got bored this morning and decided to E-mail the comic's creator and just mention this atrocity. here's what I sent:
*** I know your comic is about current cinema, but I'd just like to share an anecdote. Last night I was channel surfing and came across 'Highlander: 2'. now, the first Highlander was if not spectacular, fairly well done. the swordplay needed work, but it had Sean connery. I saw the same actors for McCloud and Connery, and decided it would be an ok flick.
There is a point where so bad its good becomes just bad again. Something beyond. ADVANCED bad if you will. Now, I've seen 'shocker' and 'Gay Niggers From Outer Space', and both could be qualified as cult classics. No, this was beyond that.
In other news, Big fan of the comic, keep up the excellent work, I always try and catch the corresponding comic before seeing a movie in the theaters. ***
His response took only about 2 hours to receive, which, by webcomic standards, is freaking incredible. it was as follows:
=== Hey Dave,
I think 'Highlander: 2' is probably the gold standard of "so bad it's good" - except it's not. It's out and out terrible.
If ever a sequel DIDN'T need to be made, it was that one. Whatever happened to "there can be only one?!" Oh... and now the Highlander isn't an ancient Scottish immortal? He's part of a race of extraterrestrials?
Oh, goodness. ===
This right here? This is the good stuff.
