This is the beginning of not being constantly connected to the internet anymore for the whole summer.
It makes things harder than they ought to be.
It turns my computer into a useless hunk of tv. Something to look at.
I’m spoiled.
Most people don’t even have computers, much less sick T1 connections.
I have more errands to run.

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup
They slither wildly as they slip away across the universe
Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind
Possessing and caressing me
Jai Guru Deva OM

Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world

Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes
They call me on and on across the universe
Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box
They tumble blindly as they make their way across the universe
Jai Guru Deva OM

Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world

Sounds of laughter shades of life are ringing through my open ears
Inciting and inviting me
Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns
It calls me on and on
Across the universe
Jai Guru Deva OM

Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world
Nothing’s gonna change my world

Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva
Jai Guru Deva

Blogger has been updated. Interesting. The new interface looks pretty nice to me.
Here is what happened with housing (the short version).
I was supposed to live (like not move) in the PE house where I live now. No one else was staying for the summer except me. It’s a big house. They charge for the whole summer and it didn’t cost anymore for me to live here alone than with 3 other people.
They figured out this wasn’t very cost effective for them or something and told me I had to move to a dorm. This was during finals week. They are fuckers.
I said no. Then I was going to live in JKrohn’s old house with Bob.
Then I told Caryn I didn’t need a place to live even though she was trying to sublet her place.
Then someone rented JKrohn’s old place and Bob didn’t want to live with me anymore.
Then Molly wanted to live with me in the dorm thing but then she didn’t because living in a dorm would suck ass.
Then I told Caryn I needed a place to live still and she called the dude that was going to sublet and told him they found someone else (me).
Then Jeremiah needed a roommate but I already had a place.
So Molly is going to live there I think.
I still have to move.
My new address will be 2222 N. Kenmore. Whoa.

Yeah, I really don’t want to move all my stuff.
I’m also getting rather poor.
Buying food sucks.
I’m happy, don’t let this fool you.
Sometimes I’ve got nothing better to do than complain.

OK, housing is working out. Thanks. I just want to post that to make it not seem so pathetic. I’ll post my new address when it exists.
Lift has to be done this week or I won’t be able to print it. This week being the for real absolute last week for submissions, so do it.
My stomach hair is thicker than my pubes.
I got a dice ass, prewelded, many speed, tall man, possibly rare Nishiki road bike today. The bike shop dude thought it was cool. And a tight shirt. Both from Jonk. What a guy.
I am really into graduation parties. Especially super well hosted ones. I think the important fact about this party if you don’t know me or my friends is the painting hung outside with the chandelier above it. This is the first time in my life I’ve ever typed the word chandelier. It’s very french.
In conclusion, DON’T SETTLE.
And finally, my life dream has come true.

I am almost homeless. Please help me.
I don’t want to move back home.
Let me know if you know anyone who needs anyone to live with them.
If I’m bored I’ll write out the whole fucked up story later.

Week of hell is over. What happens when every class you’re in has a final project or paper AND a regular final? Stress. Anyway, a lot of stress is over, but I’m still trying to work out a place to live and a job, two things that I wasn’t anticipating needing to do.
I fucking HATE A-’s. It’s such bullshit, who decided that in college you can get an A- but not an A+. It just brings down my gpa for no fucking reason. I remember in highschool when just talking to teachers could get them to swing like an 88% on up to an A. The A- is bullshit.

I want to know everything!
I want to learn everything!
I want to understand it!
No!

Finally, Playboy thinks I’m cool.
From “How to Score with Hipster Chicks” (Hey I wanted to know.) (No I don’t subscribe to Playboy, it was just at my house. Lame.)
“Once the conversation heats up, try to be self-deprecating; hipster chicks may be the only female subculture on the planet that considers confidence an undesirable trait in a potential mate. Success is another turn off…casually refer to the size of your import only record collection. Hipsters are also repelled by Republicans-regardless of your politcal [sic -mike] leanings, identify yourself as a Democrat, a Marxist or, at the least, a libertarian if you want to score.”
Oh it goes on. The article also includes Hipster Chick Seduction Gear, some slang and all that. Hilarity ensues.
While I’m at it, I heard about this way of turning off girls. Being a fucking liar. Whatever.

Speaking of trying to score and since I’ve had to watch Rushmore over and over again:
“I should probably be trying harder to score chicks. That’s the only thing anybody really cares about. But it’s not my forte, unfortunately.
“It’ll happen, Max. It’s just. You’re like one of those clipper ship captains. You’re married to the sea.
“Yes, that’s true…But I’ve been out to sea for a long time.”

And those that don’t believe my theories of slow planet leaning let the weather be my evidence.
If you’re not familiar, yes, it takes 365 and a quarter days for Earth to fully rotate around the sun, that’s true. However, the axis leaning is on a slightly longer schedule. See: late winters, later winters, late summers, later summers, weather patterns for the past few years. It’s just a theory, and I’m not too big on categorical evidence.

I set up my computer (XP) so when I put in blank cds, it automatically opens Nero, and when I put in music cds, it automatically opens Exact Audio Copy and starts ripping that shit. Think of the time I’ll save! Now you can too! First, get the TweakUI XP Powertoy. Run it. Now go to My Computer, AutoPlay, Handlers. Hit create. Now you can add whatever application you want to an autoplay instance. If you’ve already chosen Do Nothing for adding the media type, you can right click on the drive under My Computer, click on Properties and choose AutoPlay. The new application should be in the list if you did everything correctly. Dig it.

I drank coffee this morning. I can’t sleep now.

I will produce output this summer, I swear to god. Right now I’m trying to write ten pages about Rushmore which is harder than you might think.
I have also come to the somewhat sad conclusion that the best way to contact me is via instant messenger message since my phone is either dead or not with me 90% of the time and I often forget to reply to emails and I hate talking on the phone. Or you could just come over.
