i went to michigan with mally. it was enjoyable. now i'm back and depressed about everything.

i'd like to publically apologize to mally for being a fool.

anyway, i added a lot of stuff to this song that i recorded awhile back. i don't really have any instruments, so i used pens and counter tops and water bottles and pasta in a cup for percussion... and i added a lot of vocal harmonies also. it's not bad, i guess. download it now!

some crappy pictures i did way back in the summer of 2001... when we were all so innocent at heart - we kept on ridin' and never looked back oh yeah yeah yeah:

DOOM1.gif and spades.gif.

someone told me that i had a great haircut today and that it was a definite "do," not a "don't." i guess that made me feel nice, considering i cut my own hair.

also, i haphazardly made this fucking great mix CD. it was specifically designed to cheer me up on the long journey to and from work. all the songs were added sort of randomly, but somehow it turned out to be one of my favorite mixes. here it is:

beck - forcefield
cursive - after the movies
the curtain society - beautiful song
dinosaur jr. - green mind
little red rocket - star
pavement - cut yr hair
phantom planet - recently distressed
park ave - all boy band
rem - stand
i am the world trade center - look around you
sloan - i can feel it
self - wide awake at 7
death cab for cutie - president of what
new order - shell shock
the dears - heartless romantic
jonathan richman - i'm a little dinosaur

i'm so incredibly tired right now. i really really need a car.

i made a new friend at work... i think. she told me i had to be her friend, so i guess i am.

i think there's some sort of rivalry among some of the people at work... it's so... kind of boring. work is pretty boring, but i sort of make it that way, i think. whenever it comes time for a break or lunch, i always have a habit of running off and hiding by myself. but i like that, i guess.

when people i know come in, i get a five second rush of excitement or something. this guy from mally's dorm came in... his name is dave parry. this is of note because his name is really close to dave perry's - who is like... the president of shiny entertainment... or something. and they make video games.

also, this girl that lives with alice came in. i forget her name, but she's really cute and sweet and she cooks russian food and she never seems to mind when i'm over and i'm destroying their kitchen... i guess i should be grateful to everyone in that house for putting up with my crazy clumsy antics... and especially to alice for giving me food all the time.

anyway... mostly, i just spend the whole day at work dreading the long bike ride home in the dark.

i got a job at a supermarket. now i have to get up early and ride a bike 3 miles in the snow. i'm so fucking happy that i can finally say that.

it hasn't actually started snowing yet, but i'm pretty sure i'll die when it does. my frail body has only adapted to the warm climate of temperature controlled california, and i'm afraid i'm too old to adapt any further. i've used up all of my adapting powers.

i've been playing Black and White, which involves a lot of death and pooping.

remember when i used to be like all... you know? like when i would say things that were like... i don't know... you know? what happened?
