The "doctor" is in. - Mood:Good |
|
Friday November 20 20095:56:03 PM |
| | This guy... we'll call him "douchey." (He makes MyNameIsMike look positively non-douchey, really!) Well, Douchey told me one of his professors has been reading some of my journals and said that "my days vary very little" and that I need to seek help for my "computer addiction." I'm sure she did say those things, mostly because Douchey told her I am on here 24/7. And my days do vary, but because of the public nature of forums, and the constant stream of stalkers I have on this blog, I can't talk about everything that happens to me. Sometimes I regret telling anyone about YT in the first place. Lushuspigeon one day decided to read my journals from 2003 and 2004 and flipped out when I had used his first name on some entries... his VERY common first name. And now some douchebag's professor is reading this too. Hi Professor. I suggest you teach your "student" to be a little more moral.

Zero is a percent. - Mood:Good |
|
Wednesday November 18 200912:55:03 AM |
| A percentage of something could mean zero percent. I learned that from some sleazy person that works at the Springfield Shopper.  And in other news, I am hungry, but I am not eating at this second... will be soon, hopefully. I borrowed my stepdad's tie for my interview tomorrow. I'm pretty excited about the interview, and I know it will go well, especially the grammar/spelling/testing portion. I've always had excellent grammar and spelling, so that should not be too hard. The pay is good... not as good as I delusionally thought I would get after I first started my master's program, but well more than I've ever made from any job before by a long shot. My dad and I worked out the hourly wage to be $20... hopefully that improves someday. And I'm hungry.

I wanna grow my money, Tink! Not spend it on cheese gouging! - Mood:Good |
|
Monday November 16 20095:49:39 PM |
| Codex: Why is there a pack of cheese on the table? Vork: Thank you for asking, Codex. The price difference here between a cheeseburger and a hamburger is one dollar. Now if you divide twelve into $2.95, the cost of a pack of Kraft Deli Deluxe in mild cheddar cheese slices, the slice costs 24.5 cents. If you bring your own cheese that's a savings of 75.5 cents per burger. Anybody requiring cheese may pay me so accordingly. Go ahead and round it up. Tinkerballa: ...what the f*ck? Anyway, the most awesome thing happened to me today. That's right; more awesome than getting that Facebook message yesterday afternoon, which as I suspected, didn't lead anywhere.  But yes... something really good happened today. I got a call from a job I applied to... one of the real ones. The one that also wanted to interview me in June. They will interview me on Wednesday at noon. I am excited.

"The Crow is In Flight" - Mood:Good |
|
Monday November 16 20092:34:24 AM |
| | I made a song using "Noteworthy Composer" a compositon program. It features lead guitar, rhythm guitar, bass (no pick please), and a drum. And I think for the second part I'll be added some sort of wind instrument, maybe a tuba or trumpet.

This has gone from weird... to weirder. - Mood:Good |
|
Sunday November 15 20098:05:32 PM |
| | 20 minutes ago, I received a Facebook message from someone. Of course, I couldn't even click on the profile or see any pictures or anything, but I know who it is. And I know who is responsible for this happening. I'm a little weirded out that I even got a message. If anyone were to message me on anything or anywhere, this is the last person I'd ever expect to hear from. I don't expect any good to come of this though. I did reply and explain what happened the best I could. I thought that it was the work of the AWP, but it's much simpler than that. I really need to more careful about what I say in general. Anyway... gotta eat

Skipping rocks into the Puget Sound. - Mood:Good |
|
Sunday November 15 20092:32:09 AM |
| | If by skip, you mean throw and they splash into the water, flying sideways instead of skipping like I've seen others do. I did manage to get a few skips in... only two skips on a rock most of the time, and three one time I think. It was satisfying. I had a pretty fun day today. I woke up around 11-11:30 and had to be out of the hotel by 12, but I managed to shave and shower and brush my teeth in time... We all went to Tacoma... well me and my dad in the rental car, and my stepmom and aunt in my aunt's car, so my aunt could drive back to Seattle later. So my dad and I went to this beach where he dropped me off. I met NinjaKitten and her kids there, those kids (well the older two) have tons of energy! I played tag with them and climbed up a pretty steep hill 3 or 4 times. They seemed to have just as much energy as they did when they got there, perhaps more. Cont, feel free to not read |

Burgers up my butt. - Mood:Good |
|
Saturday November 14 20093:33:25 AM |
| | This one guy that hasn't even met me seems to have made it his goal to insist I have autism/asperger's syndrome. He just shows me the DSM-IV and insists that I have it, and because I was tested under the DSM III-R, that test was outdated and that means I have it. Of course, I don't trust this kid at all. For example, with: "2. Persistent preoccupation with parts of objects (for example, sniffing or smelling objects, repetitive feeling of texture of materials, spinning wheels of toy cars) or attachment to unusual objects (for example, insists on carrying around a piece of string);" He insisted that I was obsessed with YT as an "unusual object" and therefore I had that qualification. I guess it wouldn't really make a difference if I had it or not, except Trav and THH and others would like even more of a douche for saying I lied about having it, except I never lied (cont) |

I`m high. - Mood:Good |
|
Thursday November 12 20092:53:55 PM |
| | As in flying high. Literally. Meaning I am 35,000 feet in the air. Google is offering free wireless on this plane somehow, so I am using my dad's laptop to "grace" you all with my presence. Since I was woken up before 8 am and went to bed late... I am tired. I will be in Seattle shortly... right now we're going 519 MPH, the temperature is -60F. outside. Fortunately I'm in the plane.  Anyway... TricOut

The deed is done. - Mood:Good |
|
Wednesday November 11 20097:00:27 PM |
| | The (hopefully) last words of the most pathetic person to ever live. He keeps trying to talk to me on WoW and invite me to various raids as if we were friends. And he'd say if I ever /ignore him on WoW, he's going to call/email Hannah. Hannah of course being LedZepGrl (or perhaps LedZepGrl's sister, still not 100% sure on what all went down in that clusterf*ck of an internet "relationship.) So I decided f*ck it, and put him on my ignore list. So of course, he immediately signs of f his main account and gets on one of his other characters and says: "The deed is done." I'm assuming this means Hannah has been emailed about "all my crazy ramblings about her" or some such. I figure she probably knows about it anyway. I mean I did email her in June after 5 years of not talking at all, so I'm sure that she looked this crap up back then. And if not, I am sure someone she knows has seen this.

"Meigh." - Mood:Good |
|
Monday November 09 20095:25:40 AM |
| | I received one word in an IM from my friend's dad this afternoon. All it said was "Meigh." Nothing else. Despite the fact that (I believe/was told) he ordered his son not to waste any "Gas or electricity" on me, which is what his son told me when we last talked a month ago. He said that, as though nothing were wrong and he hadn't done all that. Yet that's all he said, he never replied, and logged off minutes later. Of course, he never logs on. He's either offline or invisible, and then he'll randomly IM, and the only indication of his logging off is when AIM says the message failed to go through. I find it frustrating when people go invisible yet talk to me all the time anyway, also sucks to be blocked for no reason, or when people hide their idle time (kind of confusing, though I know one reason is not to let people know how late you stay up ) Anyway, date went well.

The way you`re bathed in light, reminds me of that night... - Mood:Good |
|
Sunday November 08 20092:56:46 AM |
| | God let me down into your rooooooooosegarden of trust... Well in other news, things are occurring. By things, I mean a date. My annual tradition of one date with someone I haven't met before that I've done for the past 3 years running. Hopefully this year can break that mold and be more than one date than the last 3 adventures. But I don't know if I'll like her or want to see her again yet. I'm pretty excited now as the moment is 12 hours 5 minutes away.  I wasn't as excited before but it's really beginning to hit me now. I'm also a little nervous, and I wasn't nervous at all until a few hours ago. I'm getting at 9 AM tomorrow though because I meet her at 12. I want to get there early enough... better to be early than late. Unlike the Kate-incident in 2006, I will have a GPS so I will not get lost for an hour in the Land of No Left Turns. (Cont-in-you-did)

Weaselfckery. - Mood:Good |
|
Friday November 06 20098:02:50 PM |
| | I got really pissed off a few hours ago. I saw Weaselfck had emailed my dad a couple days ago. This really gets to me, because the kid has now been ignoring me for no valid reason for the past month. I really wish he'd grow up, but I know that he won't. First of all, he doesn't like being posted about on here, well tough sh*t. If he wasn't a weasefck and would talk to me, I'd have no need to vent about him on here. It just bothers me more than he emails my dad like nothing is wrong. I know his dad is "Watching over" me and will email him or tell him about this journal, fck that sht, doesn't matter what I do, people always act like I'm doing something wrong, so fck it.  In other news, D&D in an hour. Chet is FINALLY coming to a game

STOP MAKING FUN OF ME!!!!!!!!!! - Mood:Good |
|
Thursday November 05 20095:37:17 PM |
| | I've had it with yo f*ckers. Sh*t is gonna go down, yo. Bridges will be burned. Stones will be turned. And you... will see a very angry nerdy white guy screaming "BARRY GOLDWATER!!!!" at the top of his lungs. F*ck all ya'll, man. I'm done with this sh*t. I'm mad as hell and I'm not gonna take it anymore. You think I'm here for your entertainment.... Well, you're probably right. I do accept my status as an entertainer. It may seem like I am unaware/unwilling of this assignment, but I enjoy amusing others. However, I prefer it would be in the laugh-with way, rather than laugh-at. Which it has been recently... And more good news. We have a time and a place for the date. I'm pretty excited, yet not at all nervous. I've had a couple of bad dates so I know it can't be worse than those. And at least she doesn't know about NDF so she can't post about me on there. Or here.

Gmail is buggy as fck. - Mood:Good |
|
Thursday November 05 200912:24:01 AM |
| | It's always had a bunch of issues, and it seems to happen at the worst of times. The worst the "features" it offers to its victims is randomly "trashing" a conversation. I recently found one in my Trash folder while looking for something else. This of course is good news, and I have an interesting story to tell. I randomly replied to a Craigslist personal because the girl said she was "looking for a nerd." So I went for it, she replied that night, I replied later that night... then she didn't reply. Or so I thought. But actually, she sent me another message Sunday afternoon, kind of sucks that I didn't reply until today. Anyway, I might meet this person Sunday, if all works out.  I expect it'll suck less than some of my dates.

I don`t think I am going to vote tomorrow. - Mood:Good |
|
Monday November 02 200911:53:20 PM |
| | I am registered, and at home, but I don't feel like I know enough about local politicians or whatever initatives are going up this year. There's nothing about repealing Prop 8... if there were, I'd be voting and even volunteering. But I feel like it's worse to vote irresponsibly than to not vote at all, though I know that's hypocritical, because two years ago I voted without knowing anything. Or maybe I should do some last minute research and make a semi-educated guess on who is right for the job of Sunnyvale Boredom Preservation.

Staring at a blank screen, blank screen. - Mood:Good |
|
Sunday November 01 20093:40:30 AM |
| | Can be scary if you don't know what's going to happen. Paranormal activity just has a blank screen at its end with a scary sound... no credits for the actors. Then pops up the R Rating notification. I wish something happened at the end Paranormal Activity was a really good movie, though I didn't get scared much at all, and most of the people in the theater did. Or maybe they all just screamed to fit in with each other. I mean it was exciting, and damn good... but it wasn't scary, not much at least. And I've eaten too much candy. Time to call it quits on that for tonight... we had very few trick or treaters. Maybe 10-15 total. Chet actually handed out some candy which surprised me. He's one of the three friends that still talks to me (and one of the three that doesn't read my entries daily.) (cont) |

Saturday October 31 20092:21:38 AM |
| | Yes, Mr. Sherman, everything stinks... I used to enjoying critiquing movies as a kid... I had a website with dozens of movie reviews that were all very short and not very well-written. Halloween is coming in 40 minutes, and as of yet, I have no plans of which to speak. Just sitting here... well I'm seeing my mom for a halloween lunch tomorrow, then perhaps handing out candy. I don't know what else I will be doing, but sadly, it won't be very exciting. I hope my one friend wises up and starts talking to me again. I like to believe that life has some sort of balancing naturally, so if he doesn't talk to me, something else good will make up for it... |

Tic tacs. - Mood:Good |
|
Friday October 30 20096:11:45 AM |
| | I cough a lot... more than I should. So when I got upstairs to my room after several Simpsons episodes... I found... a box... of TIC TACS. My dad has this delusion that they help with coughing, so he keeps giving them to me, instead of cough drops. He ran out of cough drops/can't find the rest of them or something. I looked this up online, and there seems to be nothing about tic tacs helping coughing, so I assume this is all in his head based on one expereince... oh well they do taste okay, i guess

There`s something I want to do... even though it goes against my beliefs and what I understand is the right choice to make. - Mood:Good |
|
Thursday October 29 20095:57:47 PM |
| | Jose loves to make me feel paranoid, especially about these two girls. He keeps having random people we both know tell me that he's called them or is going to call them. This kind of worries me. A few weeks ago he informed me that he did call her and that she said I was creepy and needed to get over the past. I find that hard to believe (Not that she'd think that... she probably does, or at least would if she knew everything that went down in my journals.) But I don't think some girl would accept a call from a random retarded sounding guy going "UHHHHHHHHHHH Jesse talks about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!" (which given his mental condition and general dumbassery, is how we would sound. So part of me wants to email her to know if he really did call her, but I know that's a bad idea. There's also some other guy I don't even know on WoW who claims he knows her. He's probably a liar. (cont) |

I ain`t afraid of no ghost. - Mood:Good |
|
Wednesday October 28 20099:49:13 PM |
| | Only because I don't believe in ghosts. I never have either... I've never really believed in anything supernatural. When I was five I believed in heaven because other kids in kindergarten told me about it, and my parents were shocked/a little disturbed that I had believed in that. I assumed, back then, that it was something like a fairy tale that parents didn't believe in and kids did. I didn't know that most Americans believed in it. But anyway, today I had armadillo willy's and didn't finish my burger. I ate most of it though, ate a large mound of fries, and lots of coca-cola. and now... I'm doing another one of my traditions, WoW.

My life would be funnier with a musical score and a laugh track. - Mood:Good |
|
Tuesday October 27 20097:19:35 PM |
| | And an anally-clean roommate that flips out at the level of mess in my room. Well... that wouldn't be fun for me, but it'd be funny for a potential audience... and the room would need to be bigger than it is right now. I don't like shows with laugh tracks usually. I mean... I did enjoy Friends and King of Queens, but I don't think a laugh track added much. It just made it seem less realistic, but maybe that's what they are going for. I don't appreciate being told when I should be laughing or applauding or whatever. But in other news, I'll probably be eating soon... perhaps fresh armadillo...from armadillo willy's. |

Answer me everything. - Mood:Good |

Tuesday October 27 20091:25:05 AM |
| | I'm going to be asking the questions around here! For anyone and everyone. 1. What is the biggest mistake you've made in your life... and do you still regret it? 2. Is there any food that you dislike/hate that most people like? 3. Do you ever play with tape and waste it, instead of using it to tape things? 4. Have you ever had a hamburger from In-N-Out burger? 5. Should I go to bed before 2 am tonight? 6. Who shot who in the what now? 7. Have you ever been in a fight? Tell us about that... ? 8. Tell me about yourself. 9. Why do you want to work for this company? 10. Do you feel nervous because of question 8 and 9?

Making up melodies. - Mood:Good |
|
Monday October 26 200912:49:11 AM |
| | I've made up a few melodies in my day. Sometimes they just remain in my head, though a few of them are written out, or at least I've memorized them. One of them is somewhat similar to the Beach Boys wipeout... same chord progression (though not the same chords.) Sometimes when I listen to wipeout, I hear my own song mixed in. Anyway... today I redorkulated... well, played dungeons and dragons. Chet "couldn't make it." He told me he might be able to when I called on Friday and I talked to his dad and mom today and his mom said he never told them about it. I wonder if he just doesn't like playing... or maybe his dad doesn't really approve of it and wants him to see his mom, because she only comes up once every two weeks, flying in from Salt Lake City. And my other friend continues to ignore me. I suspect he *might* have blocked my number because I tried calling him today (cont) |

I`m standing here until you make me move. - Mood:Good |
|
Thursday October 22 20099:46:28 PM |
| | Because I am an inanimate object. Or perhaps I am a video game character that you control... or perhaps I'm just running, and not quite sure where to go... I got up "early" meaning around noon instead of 1 or 2.  I went to my doctor at 2:00 (psychologist, though I usually call him a doctor because I'm a bit embarrassed about it.) We talked, and unlike most sessions, I had something to say throughout the whole meeting instead of long awkward pauses. I think talking to him has really changed my life. I was a nervous wreck when I first went in there in October of 2007, and within days I started sleeping again, and within a month I had a job. But now I am sleeping, but still no job. I got another rejection notice, but this one only took a week, which isn't too bad. I also got a notice about a new job opening up in my field from a job that had rejected me before, so I applied.
