1 +believe in me [18 Jun 2005|02:25am] [ mood | optimistic ] [ music | Blink 182 - Story of a Lonely Guy ] this weekend is gonna be fun shit. today was a good start to it, i bought a guitar off a friend for 60 bucks. its a tom delonge singature stratocaster... reatils for like 450.. the pickup didnt work on it, but i took it apart and all i had to do was fix up one wire and its working great now :) so yay for that slickass deal. shes purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrdy. saturday is gonna be good shit too, i'm spending the day with jess and we're gonna go to aly's graduation party amongst other things. so i'm really lookin forward to that. then sunday is the warped tour, that'll be fun too. all in all things are going well for me :)

5 +believe in me [05 Jun 2005|12:03pm] [ mood | groggy ] [ music | Blink 182 - Anthesia ] i decided i should give this thing an update... its probably been about a month. lots of stuff is new/different. i'm single again (me and gretch broke up like a week ago). kinda shitty but i'm doing fine. i'm also living in a new house. the past week has been quite busy, i had a lot of shit to move. first i had to move all my shit from my dads house, then bring it out here. then, i had to take everything i had upstairs in my room here and move it into the basement (i decided to move into the basement because its roomy, its always a nice temperature, and i dont have to listen to my brother and his fiance argue when im down there) then finally set it all up. all in all, the whole process took about 5 days from the time i started boxing shit at my dads to when i had everything set up down there. and its not even completely finished, i still gotta move my nice desk down there. it's pretty badass down there though, i invite you all to check it out some day. on thursday my car decided to mock me and be a piece of shit and have things break down. it started when i was on my way to work that day, i heard a clicking noise under my hood. so once i finally got to work i popped the hood to take a look and my alternator belt was wobbling around as it spun. 'no big deal' i figured, that id just have my brother take a look when i got home. well, i went to take my lunch break, and i was pulling back into the parking lot that clicking noise stopped. so i take a look, and the belt is all snapped and shredded. so after much swearing i go back inside and go back to work. i made mention of what happened to them and they sent me home an hour early, so i could get home while it was still light. that way i wouldnt need to turn on my headlights, and with my alternator belt out i surely wouldve killed my battery. so i get that scrapheap i call a car home, and then theres fucking smoke pouring out from under my hood. just fucking wonderful. i pop the hood and then it turns out theres a crack in my radiator. so i had to get a new radiator, new belts, and a bunch of jugs of coolant and transmission fluid so my brother and i could fix it. net cost to me = 190 bucks. fuck i hate cars. and what else is lame, is this is the same week that my desktop computer decided to take a shit. so i had to order a new motherboard for that. so i havent had the best luck, hah. i'm really bored right now. i'm waiting for the cable company to get here to install our cable internet. they're a bunch of nutsacks, we made the call may 24th to get it done, they call us back a week later, to tell us theyll be out there in 5 days. and they want us to wait for them between 10 and 3. jerks. i'm bored here, someone come visit meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

8 +believe in me [06 May 2005|01:33am] [ mood | sleepy ] [ music | 2Pac - All Bout U ] i'm 19 today.

1 +believe in me [21 Apr 2005|12:54am] [ mood | nerdy ] [ music | Blink 182 - All of This ] the weather has been pretty nice lately, and nicer weather = happier me. today was a bit cooler than what we'd been getting, but still an alright day. worked 1:30 to 9 today.. and it seemed like it lasted forever. probably because my legs (my left in particular) was killing me all day. not too sure why, normally its fine through my shifts, but today after about 3 hours it was hurtin. then we had to stage freight, kind of a pain in the ass but also kinda nice cuz it helps pass the time faster. i work late again tomorrow.. somethin like 2:30 to 9. then a short shift friday, and then saturday and sunday = all mine. and payday is friday, yayyyyyyy. i might pick up a new subwoofer to replace my broken one once i get paid, but not sure yet. hopefully i can find a good deal on one. and i gotta find a mothers day gift for my mom, no idea what to get. its down to just over a month before i gotta get outta here and get to my moms house.. jeez, that date seems to be approaching so fast. and its pretty obvious now that my brother is gonna be there still at that point. thats gonna suck, theres gonna be a lot of missed sleep. between the fact im not even gonna have a bed to sleep in (he has the one i used to use, the room i live in has no room for for a bed, the room i used to sleep in was given away to my neice) and the fact he has little respect for me so him and liz come into my room whenever they feel like it to use my computer. and liz doesnt know the meaning of being quiet. hopefully we'll figure a way to get me some sleep around there, hah.

3 +believe in me [17 Apr 2005|05:40pm] [ mood | relaxed ] [ music | Chicago Bears - Super Bowl Shuffle (ahahahaha) ] i came home from work today after gettin let out early (yay) which was nice because that meant i didnt get stuck moving heavy shit again on account of the cleaning crew needing to do more of the floor. when i got home my room looked really different. i knew we had an open house today but my dad was out in fond du lac so i sorta figured that it was that mean old lady selling the house that just started cleaning shit. and stuff looked like it was missing.. so i went outside into the garage and saw the garbage can overflowing and assume my stuff is residing there. so i start diggin through garbage, and sure enough, tons of my stuff is in it. including expensive items that most definitely shouldnt be throw out. i tried callin my dad but he wasnt around so i left an angry message (again i figured it was the realtor) but later he calls back and it was his doing. which makes me less mad about it. but, i still smell like shit from pawing through garbage haha. though i have tomorrow off, which is very nice. i get to relax and i get to see gretch. and we might go see sin city again because that movie was so badass.

believe in me [04 Apr 2005|01:13am] [ mood | artistic ] [ music | Foo Fighters - Baker Street ] hmm, i havent updated in awhile. as is my current habit, hah. what to write.. i guess i could start with this weekend. friday i didnt really really do anything of interest. saturday gretch came here and spent the night. :) she had to leave early on sunday though on account of me having to work. that sucked. at least work wasnt so bad today. even though i worked 9 to 6, it didnt seem like it was that long of a shift. felt more like maybe 5. which is a good thing. i'm not quite as pissed off with my job lately either, which is a good thing as well. probably partially stemming from the fact dan hasn't been there for a few days, haha. this coming paycheck will be nice, ive been putting in like 30+ hours in a week. some of that has to go to pay off various debts, but i know for sure i'm ordering my tickets to the warped tour. yes, you heard me, the warped tour. i'm pretty much going just to see the offspring. and even though a lot of the music there is bound to suck, i'm sure it'll be a fun ass time. because big music shows like that are just fun in general. speaking of music, theres a lot of good concerts that id really like to check out over spring/summer. end of april (actually in like a 4 day time frame at the end of the month) we got garbage at the rave, jimmy chamberlin complex at the rave, and nile at the house of blues. i'd love to go to all 3, but chances are ill get to one if im lucky. cuz my dad is bastardly about where i take the car cuz its still technically his for another month or so. grrr. anyways back to shows, we got nine inch nails touring in may if im not mistaken? id definitely like to see that if i could. and the warped tour which ill be attending june 18th. and billy corgan is supposed to be touring in july ive read, so im by all means seeing that. i've heard the foo fighters might go too, which id also love to see. the weather has been getting really nice lately, which is great, i was so damn sick of winter. its nice to be able to go outside without a jacket. and its nice to roll back my sunroof as i drive. (and let neighboring vehicles hear that im playing barbie girl) ach, crap, 1:15am, and i gotta be up at around 7:30am to get ready for work. off to sleep i go.

9 +believe in me [13 Mar 2005|01:22am] [ mood | hyper ] [ music | Smashing Pumpkins - Starla ] alright today was inventory at work. that sucked baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalls. dan is always a complete dickhead, and today was no different. cept, the way he was acting today makes the normal dan seem like a complete saint. he was swearing left and right and just being a huge fucking prick. i was so unbelivably happy to leave today. so after that i just sorta sat around the house bein lazy.. didnt do much beyond just sittin around on the net talkin to people until like 10ish when i went out for a bit. came back around 12ish, and here i am now not at all tired but having to work at 9 am. gaaaay. but the fun part was i told stories about poop at webb's. the best of which i'll share with you all. so anyways, we're at mammoth cave, and we have a hotel room there. and i use the toilet, nothing major just an average poop. then my dad takes this MASSIVE shit and he clogged the toilet hardcore. the water started backing up, and his shit was floating upwards with the water.. so he took this plastic cup, and scooped up this giant turd with it. but the thing is, this turd was too big for the cup. so he put a plastic bag over his hand and snapped the turd in half then he put this whole mess inside one bag. and then he didnt wanna throw it away in our room cuz it smelled so he goes outside with this thing of shit in his hands and finds the closest garbage can and tosses it away in there. it was the highlight of my 2004, haha.

believe in me wow, i've updated more in the past 4 days than i did all of february [06 Mar 2005|04:15am] [ mood | giddy ] [ music | Smashing Pumpkins - Here's to the Atom Bomb (alt) ] 4 in the damn morning, and i'm not even that tired. damn you, sleeping in late coupled with large amounts of caffeine. oh well. at least i did something somewhat productive and messed with my journal layout a bit... check it out zerosoma oooooooh pretty. i'm not too sure what my plans for tomorrow are, i might go out to cedarburg for a bit. i need to grab my earphones anyways, cuz the ones i got for my mp3 player right now are garbage, and the ones i have out there are very very nice. but at this rate who knows when i'll even be awake. haha. probably not that late though, my dad bitches at me when i sleep past like noon or so.

believe in me [05 Mar 2005|01:32pm] [ mood | blah ] [ music | Blink 182 - I'm Lost Without You ] a few days ago my laptop's harddrive died out on me, so that sucked some ass. especially because that nice 40 gig harddrive i ordered.. yeah, those fucks cancelled the order because they ran out of em and weren't gonna be getting anymore back in. luckily i had an extra 10 gig one layin around at my moms house, but having just 10 gigs in here sucks. but its a million times better than nothing at all. my mp3 player came too, that thing is really really nice. i'm listenin to it right now. it probably won't leave my side at all the whole weekend, haha. speaking of weekends, i have a 3 day weekend goin on, yaaaaaaaay. no work today, tomorrow, or monday :) i slept in for about 10 hours today, and that felt really really nice. most of last week id been sleeping about 6 hours a night. so it was nice to make up all that sleep i was missing out on. i don't even know what i'm doing with all these days off (cept for monday :D) but i don't really care, i get to relax and thats very very nice :)

believe in me [02 Mar 2005|05:44pm] [ mood | aggravated ] [ music | Living Color - Cult of Personality ] my job is really pissing me off. i've been there 6 months now, yet they still wont bump me up to full time. i've asked them a few times about it and let them know i need it because i'm hoping to move out at the end of summer and i need to start saving money, but they'll always give one of those indecsivie yet promising answers and it never ends up happening. and dan's being a jerk as usual. i'll request off one day of the week, and in return he'll give me hardly any hours. i.e. next week monday i requested off, and i got it, but he's only scheduling me for 22 hours. thats hardly anymore than what half the fucking high schoolers there are getting. i'm really tempted to leave that place in a few months. by that time i'll have been there 8-9 months so i'd at least be able to use it as a pretty good reference. i ordered my new mp3 player the other day.. creative nomad jukebox zen xtra 40gig.. should be here on friday. that'll rock. and i ordered a 40 gig harddrive for my laptop cuz some site had them for like 30 bucks. good deal. not sure when thats arriving though. oh well im not in as much of a rush to get that as i am the mp3 player. and i see gretch monday, that will be nice.

3 +believe in me [14 Feb 2005|09:23pm] [ mood | cheerful ] [ music | Smashing Pumpkins - Slunk ] today was so amazingly great. that's really all that needs to be said.

1 +believe in me [07 Feb 2005|05:38pm] [ mood | thankful ] [ music | Nine Inch Nails - Ringfinger ] this morning i was woke up by my dad holding the phone.. dan (the jerkass manager) called and wanted me to work at 5 to 9.. and in my barely awake confused state i agreed. so i figured 'there goes my day off' ..but then just as i was in my work clothes ready to get to work jon (the cool manager) called and told me to stay home cuz the store is dead. so yay, i got to relax allllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll day today. :) i needed it. i was workin like crazy, i worked like 6 days straight. and a good number of those shifts were around 9 hours. it was so nice to finally sleep in! and i cant wait for wednesday :)

4 +believe in me [30 Jan 2005|01:21am] [ mood | grumpy ] [ music | Radiohead - Motion Picture Soundtrack ] fuck work. well, sort of. sometimes its alright sometimes it sucks major balls. and working an 8.5 hour shifts all the days of the weekend gets to ya. and it sucks when theres someone you really wanna see but all the days i have off they dont. not to mention i'm just sick of people. rude motherfuckers that act like its all my fault that we dont have a certain item in stock, or a certain item to the exact specifications they want. cuz ya know, as what equates to a low-level grunt there, i really have 100% say in everything. not. some of my coworkers are pissing me the fuck off too. theres jeremy who is the type who gets endless amusement by hitting people/things. basically think the most stupid, typical, college kid you imagine, and thats him. and im sick of coworkers who try to boss me around. i'm not taking orders from some fucking cashier, or somones whos been there half as long as me and is still in high school. if youre not a manager, i dont fucking care what you want me to do, i'll do it if i want to i have zero obligation to do as you say. bastards. and i still have tomorrow and monday to go before i even see a day off. a tuesday... a mildly useless day that most of my friends would be occupied on with school and what not. and then its thursday, more of the same. yes its nice not working on those days, but still, id like to actually go out and have fun with friends. but on a plus side, i (should) have the 9th and the 14th off, so i get to see gretch both those days. provided that dan gives me those days off, but i cant picture him not doing it. i asked far in advance, and neither are days that we'd be particularily busy. not to mention i hardly ever ask off, and i see other people asking 4 days off in one week no problem. if he gives me any issues about it i'll just chew him out. i have to be at work in 7.5 hours, how lame. i sorta wanna call in sick but i wont cuz i can always use the hours and the money it provides.

5 +believe in me [18 Jan 2005|04:17pm] [ mood | infuriated ] [ music | Pantera - 13 Steps to Nowhere ] i finally gave in, i finally registered for the fucking selective service. i got a notice in the mail saying i got 10 days, or else i could face 250,000 in fines or 5 years in prison, or both. i think its bullshit that its just *guys* who are required by law to register for it. you get all these feminists talking about wanting equal rights, but in reality its just selective equal rights. i doubt they'd be too happy if the government decided that they need to register too. but hey, whatever. if there is a draft, i'll be writing all of you letters from canada or mexico.

4 +believe in me [11 Jan 2005|10:31pm] [ mood | good ] [ music | Blink 182 - Always ] i had a really fun day today. gretch came over around 12ish and we hung around and watched jerry springer.. talk about classy. then we did uh.. other 'stuff' and played some ps2 before she had to leave around 5ish. wish she couldve stayed longer, but hopefully she'll be out again soon. like 7ish i went over to andy's to watch DA practice... and man, that tanya girl who hangs out there is dumber and dumber everytime i see her. makes me glad i'm not there often.

4 +believe in me [10 Jan 2005|05:13pm] [ mood | uncomfortable ] [ music | body count - body count's in the house ] getting talked to by my dad about sex is odd, and uncomfortable. and him giving me a box of condoms is moreso uncomfortable.. but kinda cool at the same time. but WEIRD!! my mom had this kind of conversation with me once and it wasnt weird cuz my mom is laid back and cool... but my dad is really uptight and is the type that anytime he sees a girl over here is reminding me to 'keep my dick in my pants' even if its a girl i have no attraction to/involement in. but on a plus side, at least they werent lifestyles.

2 +believe in me [07 Jan 2005|09:50pm] [ mood | contemplative ] [ music | Nile - In Their Darkened Shrines: IV. Ruins ] well i brought up the possibility of full time to one of my managers, and he said it's possible.. since one of the guys is quitting and just put in his 2 weeks notice. so he said maybe i would end up taking his place. which would be fine and dandy, if not for the fact his place means me being at work at 5 IN THE MORNING. i dunno if i could handle that shit, thats waaaaay early. but i really want the hours and the money so i can hopefully get a place with someone come summer's end. gah this is gay. but at least i have the weekend off to spend thinking about it..
