| I'm in a good mood, yet i'm annoyed... weird.
So whatever, I'll get drunk later and the annoyance will go away (i think) then i'll just be ina good mood :) | | |
| Well last night was a bunch of fun :) Shellie, Kate and Steve all came over to hang out... it was really good to see them all. I made them all dinner, alfredo with tomato and mushrooms over fettucine... it turned out fairly well considering I haven't made alfredo in oh... 6 years or so. And holy fuck... Shellie... got.... drunk... xP That was the best, except that she got sick after, but at least that's finally happened for her so she can feel her limit now. Although I have a feeling she's not gonna want to drink for a while, but ah well. And now they are gone and i'm bored and tired once again. I think I'm gonna go to Best Buy later and use my gift card that Shellie got me for christmas :)
I'm too tired to really type anything else... perhaps I'll write again soon, we'll see ^^ | | |
| And I'm back. My goodness I'm really bad at updating this thing. I mean I know I'm lazy but jesus, this is rather ridiculous! Ah well. So I was searching on the net a few minutes ago, looking at journals and whatnot and found this. It's an excerpt from a letter that J.R.R. Tolkien wrote to this son Michael Tolkien in 1941. Apparently there is an entire collection of these letters that Tokien wrote to various correspondents, all put together in a volume which is fairly rare. Anyways, on with the exceprt:
Anyway women are in general much less romantic and more practical [than men]. Don't be misled by the fact that they are more 'sentimental' in words - freer with 'darling', and all that. They do not want a guiding star. They may idealize a plain young man into a hero; but they don't really need any such glamour either to fall in love or to remain in it. If they have any delusion it is that they can 'reform' men. They will take a rotter open-eyed, and even when the delusion of reforming him fails, go on loving him. They are, of course, much more realistic about the sexual relation. Unless perverted by bad contemporary fashions they do not as a rule talk 'bawdy'; not because they are purer than men (they are not) but because they don't find it funny. I have known those who pretended to, but it is a pretence. It may be intriguing, interesting, absorbing (even a great deal too absorbing) to them: but it is just plumb natural, a serious, obvious interest; where is the joke?
I never really thought about that, and the obviousness of that statement is sort of like a kick to the ass. I have continually wondered why it was that girls didn't seem like they were REALLY interested in romance as I had always believed. Perhaps it was blindness that caused me to believe that... that I wanted merely to think that by being nice and affectionate to someone I could win their heart. And perhaps it is Hollywoods fault as well, for making countless movies about romance and how women crave it. Perhaps it is time to stop feeling bitter and jaded about the whole thing with relationships with women and perhaps it is time to wake up. Easier said than done of course. | | |
| Holy shit an update?! That's right bitches, stop your whining... it's only been a fucking month! (not that anyone is still reading this <.<...>.>)
So anyways, school is done, thank sweet white skinned blue eyed jesus. This semester sucked balls by the way... except for course for shellie and kate who made it a little more tolerable... oh yeah, and steve too ^.~
So speaking of our white skinned blue eyed friend, it's his birthday (even though it's not) tomorrow. Whiche means.... PRESENTS... cause thats what jesus did, he gave everyone presents... he kinda sucked at it though, i mean, fish, water, bread... kinda crappy gifts if you ask me... but it's alright, we'll give him a break seeing as he did spawn the holiday, things always get improved right?
I'm at work now and will be venturing home shortly, weeee... so i'm gonna leave now and actually do some work... so yeah....
Merry Christmas/X-Mas/Crimmus/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/whatever chipmunks, squirrels and ferets celebrate/New Years!!!
(only reason i talk about chipmunks etc is cause there is one very daring motherfucker who keeps leeping like a HUGE distance to the bird feeder, only to keep realizing there is no food in it... how cute) | | |
| Bah, so this entry really should be two entries, but I'm a lazy asshole who doesn't update his journal nearly enough. Which would normally be ok, except that I get mad when other people don't update theirs so that I have something to read XP... ah well... here we go.
So lets start with my birthday, like my actual birthday, November 17th. It was ok I guess, wasn't really that much fun though, cause I had to go to work, which turned out ok cause I actually didn't have any work to do, so I basically drove out there for nothing, BUT they had cake for me and Laurie, so it was worth it XP. BUT THEN i had to go to Chinese History and take a fucking quiz that sucked my ass. Plus I actually stayed for the class instead of getting up and leaving like Dan did, bleh. Then I got back home and wanted to hang out with someone, but nobody was around. Kate had left for a concert and Shellie CHOSE FENCING OVER ME!!!!111 like WTF... hehe, juuuust kidding shellie ^_~ I had a good time putting her a on guilt trip for that though, so it's all good. So my actual birthday day, was rather unexciting.
HOWEVER, the rest of the week was pretty fucking great. My birthday turned out to be more like an event than a BirthDAY. Tuesday night Shellie, Kate and I all went out to the Olive Garden, which is like my birthday dinner spot ALL the time. Yeah, we basically rolled out of there, it was great. Although I think Kate sorta hated me for making her buy a dessert, but it was well worth it, cause she left me the rest of the Pumpkin Cheesecake, bwahahaha.
The rest of the week was pretty much me just trying to get through classes so I could get to this weekend. I still hate school, biggety blah!
Which brings us to last night. The Party. I had a great time. There were definitely some bumps and bruises along the way, but all in all it was a really good birthday party. The only thing that kinda made me sad was that not everyone who I wanted to come came. Michelle wasn't there, Aileen couldn't make it, Allison and her roommates never showed up (which I'm hoping was because they decided to just not come and not because they got lost *crosses fingers*) and then of course Gabby, but I haven't heard from her in a while and I should really e-mail her sometime soon and stop being lazy about it.
LOL but ANYWAYS. We got a late start to the party, apparently Jamie thought it was a good idea to stop at the liquor store before the party, I guess I neglected to tell him that I had bought a bunch of alcohol, woops. So they got held up for like 30 minutes and then couldn't even buy anything cause Bethany was with him and she's under 21. So we got up to the lakehouse at around 8:30 or so. They had pizza and beer waiting for me... god I love my friends XP oooo and Jello shots, those were yummy. So we started drinking and hanging out and then Kate realized I didn't have a cake!!! So what happened then? The nicest thing anyone has done for me in a while, lol. Kate, Shellie and Steve MADE me a birthday cake FROM SCRATCH. And then Ben made this kick ass kahlua frosting, HOLY FUCK was it awesome. Girls. made. me. a. cake. AND i have pictures to prove it!!!! Speaking of pictures, I need to go through the disks and check out the pics I took.
So lets see, then there was the presents. I kinda knew what I was getting, but was still surprised and excited that I got them XP. Steve, Steve and Steph got me Viewtiful Joe which fucking kicks ass! And Nick and Casey got me Final Fantasy XI... I am SO not going to get any school work done, damn you guys!
ooooooo and then the karaoke. LOL I don't know why I suck so so much, but I do. Seriously, it takes SO muc coercing to get me to start singing, but once I start I don't stop. I think it's probably because while I love to sing I think my voice sucks ass, and therefore don't want to embarass myself by singing anymore. But ah well, there's an upside to that too, because since I think it sucks I do things like sing with hardcore voice. Nick and I were sitting together and sang Bennie and the Jets. We both didn't really know the song, it sounded vaguely familiar and I know the title so I'm sure I've heard it a few times, but without the lyrics to sing along with it's weird. It was a LOT of fun though XP. 'ba ba ba ba ba ba ba BENNIE AND THE JETS' But bah, I didn't get to sing Truly Madly Deeply, I mean I had the chance to do it, but I didn't cause I was a pussy and wasn't drunk enough. Ah well. And then of course there was Steve with his serenades, lol, what a pimp XP Those were fun to watch though, Shellie got so completely embarassed, it was great! plus I got pictures *snicker*.
OMG and the BEST part of the night. And this may sound weird to some people, but to my friends who know me this is perfectly normal. SHELLIE DRANK WITH ME! That really made me happy, which seems sort of odd I guess, cause it seems more like I'm happy because I was trying to get her drunk, but no, I have no yet come across a person, no matter how much they were against drinking who has had a few drinks and had a bad time. Drinking is fun and if you do it correctly you end up having a good time. And she was a good sport and toasted to my birthday and to our friendship (even though that was just me being evil) but still, it was awesome. Only thing that sucked was that Kate couldn't get ridiculously drunk with me, cause of fencing, but ah well, we all had a good time i think :)
And then the morning. mmmmmmmm the morning. Head hurt. Sun was bright. Ben made food. I felt alright. Haha wow, I didn't mean to turn that into a rhyme, it kinda just happened, haha.... oh boy, i think it's time for bed XP. I feel like I'm leaving certain things about the party out, but my brain is rather fried. Oh, haha, Nick and Patch jumped into the lake naked... that was. interesting. lol Luckily it was in the dark and we didn't have to SEE them do it, haha.
Ok, well I'm off to bed then, THANK YOU EVERYONE for giving me another great birthday, I really appreciate it ^^ | | |
