my iPod is full.
I just had to go in and take a bunch of stuff off.
among the fallen were all the 2nd discs to my elvis costello albums :(
On the plus side I have enough room for something like 20 more albums... at least. |

thanks to muxtape.com I'm hearing a lot of indie music that I've been ignoring for years now because I've been so heavy into garage/punk/hardcore/metal/stoner/stuff-that-rules-way-better-than-indie.
So I just listened to the postal service.
oh dear, i'm happy to say i was justified in staying away from certain such bands.
the postal service is just awful.
it's really terrible stuff, guys.
on the other hand, the Coathangers have a song called "Nestle In My Boobies" and its fucking AWESOME!
thats all for now. |

I've been having dreams where I'm running.
Not to or from anything.
Just running.
This weekend was pretty good. Guests on the radio show. Nice weather.
Foggy. Not very much.
Not enough to make driving hazardous, but enough to make streetlights glow instead of shine. The air smelled wet and it smelled like spring was on its way.
Changed my oil.
Went out Saturday night, lost in a spelling bee in the 3rd round(out of 5).
I keep getting this awful feeling that the world is dying. |

a (somewhat) fixed computer and some records.
so i was finally able to access the files on my parents' computer this weekend, saved some documents and kinda reinstalled some stuff but now there's no sound. I don't know what's up. I'm 'bout ready to just wipe the whole thing and start over(at least I have their files on a portable HD, right?) Ugh. I hate computers.maybe i can just reinstall the sound card? i dunno. it's gonna suck... and on top of that i need to find the product registry key. blech.
so anyway in what little free time i was allowed this weekend i got some record shopping... yet i still don't have a working record player. hmm.
here's the score:
Violent Femmes - S/T
Saxon - Denim and Leather
The Rolling Stones - December's Children
The Rolling Stones - More Hot Rocks(Big Hits & Fazed Cookies)
Humble Pie - Smokin'
The Dave Clark Five - Greatest Hits
Neil Young w/ Crazy Horse - Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere
Total spent: $35
Good times, good times...
I also ate a Baba Falafel wrap at Aladdin's
It was delicious. |

So my parents called me over to fix their computer tonight.
I go over, have no clue what's going on. Apparently the mouse and keyboard aren't working and the desktop is all screwed up. The only screen I can get to is System Recovery and I start doing that but I realize System Recovery wipes everything out and they didn't want to do that, I try to abort and nothing responds so I have to unplug the computer because there's no off switch and when I turn it back on I get some dll error about files missing and shit and now all I can get to it get to are F8, F10 and Boot screen.
I think I royally fucked it up and they're going to have to take it to Geek Squad or Micro Center or some shit. Apparently they're too afraid to talk to tech support because they act like babies when it comes to computers.
I think the main problem is from this new printer they hooked up and installed last night because when Windows DID boot up(before I fucked things up) there was some weird Print Program on the screen that you couldn't close or adjust because the keyboard and mouse wouldn't work(tried hooking up different keyboards/mice and same problem.
They should've called the printer's tech support instead of having me come over and I'm pissed that I just thought of that now.
Anyone know how to fix computers and save my parents' documents?
No?
Shit. |

I've been having an awful lot of thoughts lately. Nothing big, nothing small.
Disjointed thoughts on things. Almost none of them related.
I want to put them down. I want to expand on what's going on in my brain.
Oddly enough, for the first time in ever I actually want to write something.
I mostly get visited by my muse while driving so 9 times out of 10 by the time I get someplace I can expand on whatever thought I had, it's too late.
I don't know why this seems "all of a sudden." Frankly speaking it's nothing new for me. My mind has always wandered to the strangest places at the most inconvenient of times. Now I want to start remembering them and writing them down.
I worry, quite often, that I'm not as smart as some of my friends think. I know I'm fairly cognizant of things that are going on. Though I can't help but feel daunted by the great wealth of information that I'm missing. Having a slight grasp on just how much I don't know scares me out of sharing ideas. What if they've been thought? What if there's a set of simple truths that currently elude because I haven't read about them or learned them. Learning them through experience would be fine, but what accomplishment I feel would be overshadowed by the commonality of such knowledge. Is this normal? Am I normal?
I could go on creative tears but to me they'd be nothing but recycled words even if I'm the one who thought of them. It all sounds the same in my head. It all sounds like repeated, played out, simple and common knowledge when I think about sharing it.
I'm afraid of being the last one in the room to get the joke. |

I think, most importanly, I need some foods that KEEP A REALLY LONG TIME
like 2-3 weeks if possible.
I can make soup and pasta and beans and rice and all that stuff, no problem. the problem is it's always terrible the next day. taking salad to work? won't really work. I guess my biggest problem is I don't really have food containers so the small meals I make I have to eat or else, well... I can't keep them.
I wish i had the option of being able to cook at work, that would be fun.
I think I'm going to start bringing instant oatmeal(the plain, not the sugar and preservative loaded packages) and having that for lunch. and maybe try hummus? except I don't have a blender... oops |

small successes!
September: I started regularly going to the Y. I'd go and just walk really, 2-3 times a week and I'd walk maybe 2-3 miles each time. My goal was to get myself accustomed to going. Goal accomplished. Late December/ealy January I began a normal workout routine to which I've been sticking. I go 3-4 times a week and work out for about 45 minutes to an hour. Through the month of January I packed on a good 15-20 pounds. I kept going... Today I'm down about ten pounds from that so it's starting to work I think. I'm trying harder to watch what I eat but that's getting to be the tougher of the two side to this "losing weight" thing. I eat garbage. Taco Bell, Burger King, Rally's, Chipotle, I have to stop. I have v8 and celery in the fridge now. Salad fixins and chicken breasts for my chicken/broccoli stir frying.
I think a lot about the things I eat during the week. Not only is it a drain on my bank account but it's counter-productive to my fitness regimen. I try to eat both healthily and eat cheaply but that is really tough to do.
I'm not sure what my next step is going to be but if I have to cut out lunch at work since it always boils down to fast food or buying lunch meat which is almost as bad then fuck it. I'll start eating breakfast and dinner only. Lunchtimes I'll spend reading. I can't remember the last time I read and finished a book.
it's been years to say the least. |
