What the hell is this?

A Day In The Life
Woke up today at about 1:30pm or so and didn't get out of bed till about 2:00pm. I mainly sat on my mom's bed, laptop blasting out Queens of the Stone Age and me, with my trusty guitar, playing along to the kick ass tunes that filled the room.
It was about an hour after this that my mom asked if we wanted to go, of all things, a monster truck show, with Christopher, Nini and our respective fathers.
I was quite ambivialent on the subject. I really could care less about a bunch of hicks, hootin' and hollerin' about some whacked out red neck driving a equally whacked out truck. But, my brother wanted to go so I said 'fuck it'. We've never been to one before and I'm one for trying new things.
I feel dizy right now.
My mom, dad, Vince and myself eat some cheeseburgers at Texaco and my mom drops us off at Centenial Garden. I took my iPod with me when went to eat and when my mom droped us off, I had left my headphones in the car (more on that later).
Timmy and Tweety said they'd meet us there at 7:30pm, we got there fifeteen minutes earlier. Fortunatley for me, the local rock radio station, Krab, was there covering the event. Being early gave me time to lodge my complaints with their shitty playlists. The D.J. was in total agreement with me, but he said he 'has about as much control of the music as does the janitor'. Note to self never work in radio.
So, we get inside. Watch the truck jump and make noise. Watch some kids do some motocross and ATV stuff. Oh yeah, I was bored off my fuckin ass.
Cut to 12:30am. I go out to the car to get my Grado SR-60 headphones (THEE best headphones, EVER!) and my mom is like 'lookin' for your headphone' to which I say, yup.
Here's where it gets sad, aparently when I left on the floorboard of the car, the cord fell out of the car, thus causing the jack to scrape against the road for an undetermined ammount of time. She said the jack is pretty worn down, so it must've draged for a few miles atleast. My headphones are at my grandparents' house, I've gotta go and see if they still work tomorrow (or later since it's 5am right now).
Anyone wanna buy me some headphones?
Also, Lila and her cousin Tiffany called me and left a bunch of bizare messages on my voice mail. Tiffany is a weird chick.
But then, what woman isn't?

Thank you…
I love, love, love this woman. There's no force, no ammount of material goods, no combination of words and phrases to describe what I feel for her.
I anticipate the day we're married, and I can parade her around, proudly. Braging to people about how wonderful she is, how much I care for her. Shooting off my mouth at what a great catch she is, how they missed out on having the most awesome person to walk the planet.
I probably don't say it enough to her, but she knows I love her.
On a more lighter note. I went toSharon's 16th birthday party I had loads o' fun. Got to see all my cousins/freinds. No major incidents went down, no fights or anything that's worth writing about. All in all, a pretty un-eventful, but fun, party.
Sharon looked so happy, I just had to laugh at how happy she was. She got pretty drunk, so by the end of the party she was hanging all over me and we were playing hand slap games that six-year old girls play in school.
I suck at those games.
My cousin Jenny and I did a lovely rendition of 'Hey Jude' as we left, she sang and I played piano. We got applauded, which shocked me 'cuz I was doing it as a joke. Jenny and her family are well versed in music, there not just all about top 40 shit. They know good music. Her dad (my first cousin) had quite a long conversation about jazz, our love of Elvis Costello. Quite a cool guy.
Speaking of music, I bought the Queens of the Stone Age's Songs for the Deaf, fucking brilliant album. I haven't stoped listening to it since I got it on Saturday. Every song is genius. A dark, yet catchy and some-what poppy rock album. Something that's been needed for a long time.
I also picked up Sing-Sing's The Joy of Sing-Sing. Also a kick ass album, very different from The Queen's album, but equally good. A very sample-oriented album with amazingly dreamy vocals and beats. Command is a damn sexy song. But the album people.

Not a day for consumerism.
Today was a shit day for me buying things. I went to the mall to get my Limited Edition Spider-Man DVD boxed set, they didn't have it. Of course I was supposed to pick it up back in November. Atleast they game me my $10 bucks back for my reservation.
Then, I went to get a ear-piece for my cell phone. All they had was a box set which included and car-charger, ear-piece and fake leather case. So the salesman sold me just ear piece for $10 bucks.
Cut to ten minutes later I'm at Dewars getting Ice Cream, and decide to test my ear-piece. Plug it in, making noise. Speaker works, great. Make a call, no one can hear me. The fucking microphone is broken. Now I gotta go back and get my money back.
Thing is he didn't give me a reciept, he most likely pocketed the $10 bucks for him self, slimy bastard. Now I gotta go when he's there and it'll end up more trouble than what it's worth.
One steady flow of thought.
I'm watching The Screen Savers right now and my brother, Vince, is playing Mortal Kombat II on the PC. Leo is doing an interview with Simson Garfinkel and Abhi Shelat about hard drive data still being on the disk. Even though most people think they're safe.
Vince just knocked Shang Tsung off the pit.
I went to Target yesterday and applied for a Target Visa card. I got aproved! $6000 credit limit, K-Rad (what does K-rad mean, I've been saying it for years, yet I don't know what it means).
I spent alot of time trying to set up the images folder on the site yesterday. I was trying to get Apache to list the contents with icons and stuff. I did it. Check it out here
Crystal called me yesterday. She was bored and she did one of her couple with me. She thought I was Paul, how gross?
I've been eating a lot of potato chips, in paticular Ruffles Cheddar and Sour Cream and straigh up plain Lays. I guess I should cut down, but, they're so good. And I get bored at night, and when I get bored, I eat.
I want a Junghans Atomic Watch they're so cool. You never have to set the time, they use the atomic clock that's in Colorado (I think).
I miss my woman... she's cool. She's my other half if you will.
