    Egads. I have spent about three hours now on the menu of the new layout. Just the menu. It’s dynamic HTML, and I am suddenly much closer to it. You guys better appreciate this. Wait… no… I’m not doing this for you. I’m doing it for me, right? Well, I appreciate me then.

    I have pictures!! But I’m not even going to attempt putting them up tonight. I’m going to veg out and watch Princess Mononoke, which I have never seen before. I’m sure I’ll hate it because it’s an anime in English. Yeah, yeah, celebrity voices. Who cares? I’m putting subtitles on it anyway. I think I just like subtitles.

    Now that I have the menu down, it shouldn’t be long. I hope. The new layout is simple but nice, and it’s a tribute to a website I used to love which has been gone for quite a while. It had a very similar layout, and she had lots of lovely pictures.

    Oh, yes. Also I got a Siberian Dwarf Hamster. His name is Cosmo and he’s the cutest thing EVER. Let’s hope I have better luck with hamsters than with turtles.

    Hello everybody!! I like the layout okay, but just warning you it will change again when I get my digital camera. So like… two days. And I need to actually put some links up on the links page. I really did have a lot on there…. and then I accidentally saved over it, so I had to redo it, and I was tired. And I think the Absorb page is really dumb. I don’t know what I was thinking when I made it. I’m thinking of taking it off. But anyhoo… that’s about it. Tyler loaned me Evangelion, so I’m gonna watch that. Alesha and I watched Adaptation and Frida last night and they were both excellent movies. Adaptation especially had a lot of good quotes.

    My mom was showing me how much George Harrison’s son looked like him when they inducted him into the Hall of Fame on VH1. I think that him, Sean Lennon, Paul McCartney’s son (who plays the guitar) should all get together and play. I wonder if Ringo has a son that plays drums? It’d be a really neat idea. Somehow I see them as being a punk band though. Huh.

    Blech. I am feeling so yucky. Blech.

    And I hate this layout. Blech.

    I am supposed to be at Carmike right now, working. From 9:30 to 5. But I woke up sick, and I still feel sickly, and they never answer the phone, so they probably think I am a no-call/no-show, which stresses me out and makes me feel sicker. I hate it.

    Blech.

    Sorry you couldn’t find me Eric. My phone was off because it wasn’t charged, but I did check my messages, and you went to Carmike but I was working at Blockbuster last night, so poo. And today I am sick and can’t hang out. But I can talk to you through my journal entry because it doesn’t take a lot of effort to move fingers.

    And Tony, I’m glad you’re updating again. I liked your entries! Especially the part about counter-strike equals bedtime… except that i’ve never played counter-strike… but I still understand.

    I wish I could play a video game right now. I just scooted my computer chair up and my heart’s beating all hard now. Argh.

    I watched Happenstance this morning, which is a french film and it was really good. I still need to watch Shaolin: Wheel of Life and Evangelion Vol. 1 which I rented. I really really want to redesign my website but I don’t want to expend the energy. I’ll just wait. I’m very close to getting my digital camera anyway. I’m talking like a week from now. It would be pointless to make another design now.

    So bye.

    Okay, so I changed the layout anyway. At least I like it better.

    Okay, I really like Blockbuster. It is awesome. Yay!

    I’m really tired. Last night was dancing and spending time at Andy and Jessica’s with a big ole’ group of people. I loved seeing Andy and Jessica again. In the short time I’ve known them and as little as I get to see them, they’ve still become some of my favorite people. I hardly even talk to Jessica that much and I’d call her a close friend. I love that.

    This morning at 5 was driving back to Muskogee, Alesha and I. There was a thick layer of fog all over the place, and it made everything surreal and beautiful, like looking straight at the dim sun just barely above a green field. Just purple haze everywhere. All these beautiful and poetic moments keep happening before I can get my camera. Argh. But I can still keep them.

    Today after I woke up was cleaning. Lots of cleaning. I’m ready to sleep some more now, and looking around you can’t really tell I did anything. sigh At least I can look forward to work now instead of dreading it.

    Oh my gosh I found the best website –> http://www.realjapan.net. Go! I love the toilets.

    Speaking of Japan, I was in Shayna’s mom’s store (which is closing… tear but everything’s half off so go buy something) and the twins, Misty and Melody, came in. I asked them if they had applied for the Kyoto trip and they said they didn’t. They take Japanese at TCC and they said they were sure that the people in class 4 or more advanced would have a better chance. This makes me kind of nervous because I only know basic conversational Japanese. But it doesn’t hurt to apply, I guess. And regardless, I’m getting to Japan someday.

    I’m just so dang excited about going to school for it!!! Ack!! hyperventilates

    Bryan’s 21st birthday was Saturday, so the legal drinkers went to the Wild Cowboy (which completely sucks, don’t go there). Alesha got tipsy, I had a yummy Sprite, although I did have a few drinks of Alesha’s Sea Breeze’s, they are absolutely yummy. We got hit on quite a bit, there was one guy that sat down with us after the boys went home (party poopers) who basically told us several times that he was in the army and that 5 of his friends were killed in Iraq. Then when we left he acted really hurt because I wouldn’t spend the night with him. “But I ship out in 3 days!” I’m… sorry?

    Bars are retarded. Funny, but retarded. Hanging out at Bryan’s after was… quite interesting, though.

    This is such a lazy day. Last one for me in a while. Tomorrow I start my job at Blockbuster, and from there straight to Carmike. And it’s going to be like that for the rest of the week and probably forever after. But I figure it’s the best plan: make lots of money and don’t have any time to spend it needlessly.

    I’m downloading Red vs. Blue episodes, FINALLY. It’s taking forever though. Crappy DSL. Ja ne.

    I just realized, as I finish off a package of Pocky with a pooched out belly from slouching, that right now is the perfect opportunity to go to the gym. When someone doesn’t remind me, I totally forget. Egads. I wonder if I can even still run.

    A crowded room of unobservant people. Limp Bizkit’s bonus track after Behind Blue Eyes playing. He’s sitting down, and I walk in. He sees me, and time slows to a glorious crawl. A glance towards him of inexplicable slowness and complete knowing. A stare at me that is filled to the brim with thought. The air is electrified with the thick static of desire, and the whole world exists in that very speck of time.

    This is the moment I want to relive forever and ever.

    It took Dell 5 hours via phone to discover what I have known for two months now.

    I need a new power supply fan.

    Fortunately, Dell has redeemed themselves by sending me a whole new power supply box and a replacement processor fan because they couldn’t eliminate that as a possibility despite my scratching my hand to bits as I tried to unplug the CD-ROM drive. They’re even throwing in the installation guy.
