| I don't feel so good. |
[Aug. 4th, 2010|01:22 am] |
I have a tummy ache, and I have a head ache.
Also, I tried waxing today, and the wax didn't come off very well, and it got everywhere.
My parents come back on Thursday (probably) so I'm going to spend all day tomorrow cleaning house.
I never update this. I feel apathetic. I have three blogs now for Pete's sake. I should at least update one of them.
Also, remember when mullets were funny? |

The well is fucked up so now the house doesn't have running water. I'm pretty worn out from doing shit all day (and I'd love to be able to take a shower) so I'm not too keen on doing a lengthy blog post, but man, this blows ass. |

I just found these at the dollar tree. I ordered the kit off Amazon.com. I'm stoked. It looks awesome.
Also, I totally have some of these:

So, you know what I hate? I hate how the majority of people, when they hear the words 'super hero' think of movies and not comic books.
It's especially upsetting because in order to make a super hero movie, they need to have a ton of money and special effects and stuff, and let's face it, nine times out of ten, when Hollywood throws money at a comic book in order to make a movie, it turns out really bad.
Comic book super hero movies that I liked: The Adam West Batman, Howard The Duck, Mystery Men. That's all I can think of right now. |

I've been job hunting for a long time now, and it's been getting really depressing, and to see someone get snippy like that sort of cheesed me off, so I went ahead and emailed them:
Your post on craigslist makes you sound like a dickhead.
And I got an email back saying:
Thanks Pecker!
I think that's just hilarious. If I could, I would hug the person who sent it. |

| Cookies. |
[May. 12th, 2010|12:31 pm] |

I just bought a package of Western Family duplex sandwich creme cookies,and I noticed the package says in big exciting letters '2 pounds!' Is it just me, or does that make the cookies less appealing. I mean, I wanted about four cookies, and now I have two pounds of total crap food that isn't even that good. I'll probably get cancer and die a week earlier because I ate two fucking pounds of shitty cookies. I would have been happier if they put 'You won't die any earlier' on the package instead of 'two pounds.' |

My father and grandparents are in Santa Cruz visiting my brother right now. I figure, if Mashall is so busy that he can't even return my phone calls most of the time then I'm not going to bother visiting him.
So now I'm at my grandparents' house all by myself. My plan was to figure out where to go to teach English with Daves ESL Cafe, but their website is down for some reason. It's a Sunday, I spent all week job hunting here, and I have nothing to show for it.
I kind of want to start drinking, but at the same time, it seems like a bad idea. I ran out of antidepressants on Thursday and only was able to get the prescription renewed yesterday afternoon, so getting tore up for the second time this week seems a little like bad news.
I've talked a lot, but the fact of the matter is I'm still not completely sure why I went straight or why I stopped. It's just an action. It's like jumping off a bridge. If you stop thinking about it, you do it, and then it's done and there's no turning back.
At any rate, I just feel very done with this whole state of things. Like I don't even know why I bother. |

So I'm sick of waiting around for some stupid employer to give me a break. I'm doin' all I can to get a stupid job waiting tables or washing cars, and here I could be in another country teaching English as a second language and making a pretty penny doing it. Fuck America. Fuck wasting my time on this whole stupid system. What do I want a shitty job for? A few bucks every two weeks isn't going to make me feel any less lousy about wasting time doing something worthless. I've pretty much made up my mind. |

| Big Decisions |
[Mar. 4th, 2010|05:28 pm] |
So last night, or maybe it was this morning, I sorta made a sorta big decisions. I've been up here in Etna for a month, trying to find a job in the bay area so that I can move down there, and it hasn't been going real well. I mean, it's been going okay, but so far I haven't found a job.
Last night, or maybe this morning, I had the thought, why don't I just take a job at Astrocamp, do that for a while, then maybe bounce around or something. The answer is of course that I love the bay area and I want to get to do all the wicked awesome stuff that's going on there, and I've kind of tried to set up my life so that the bay area provides a foundation for my life, and I don't like feeling like I lack foundation. I can feel unstable very easily. But heck, I can do phone sessions with my therapist, and maybe that's good enough. At any rate, I'm not getting what I need out of life by striving to get back to the bay. |
