I re-upped for a bit to do some lurking. Life's pretty fucking great these days, though. Thanks for checking in.

Hey, you wouldn't happen to have a cute sister who's single, would 'ya?

The offer is in on my (hopefully) soon to be new house, so it's looking like I'm going to be committed to being a southerner for the foreseeable future. I think I'm well on my way to becoming a domesticated old lady too because I got mildly excited that Kohls had 600tc sheets on super sale today. I'm not quite sure what that means, but it's something.

I feel like I had more to say in places like this when I was depressed about whatever the downer of the week was before. Now that I'm a generally cheery guy day in and day out, I just simply don't have much to rant and rave about. It may make me seem like a more boring person to people that I only have online contact with, but I think it's a trade that's for the better. (I guess I can rant and rave about have nothing to rant and rave about though at least)

So yeah, new bike, new house, new sheets, a smattering of good shows, and a new cute girl all add up to make Kevin one very happy, dull boy.

i think it's time i get back to being active on this site. a lot of things in life have changed for me in the last year (no worries, pretty much all of them are for the better), but the simple fact of the matter is that i've been living in the south for a year now and only really have a handfull of new friends. most of which are jesus loving homophobes. now that i don't have the little stumbling block of living with a girlfriend who frowns upon social networking sites that are based largely around naked women, i believe the time is nigh to make some new friends and see whats changed around here in the last 13 months. hello world!

this boy needs a job. the level to which my guitar hero skills have improved and the fact that i get blank stares from all of my friends when i bring up politics i'm beginning to think are really just different signs that i've got too much time on my hands these days. i had another interview this morning, so we'll see how that goes.


in other news: the murder city devils still rule and i've had a strange obsession lately with taco dip.

so, all signs are pointing to her having been fucking other guys behind my back....and for some odd reason i can't wipe the stupid smile off of my face.

i've never said this about anyone and meant it before, but: Fuck you, you fucking whore.

just kind of has a nice ring to it no?

do you ever have those times where you look at your music collection (which is entirely too big, but still somehow always missing something) and say, "i'm sick off all of this crap"? yeah, well that's where i'm at. the real drag is that i'm three songs into side B of what is, so far at least, a pretty killer mix tape and i'm pretty hopelessly stuck. i'm set on finishing this thing out though before i do anything else, which is why i'm still sitting here in my underwear shoving cookie dough down my throat at a rate that practically begs for heart disease and diabetes. i should probably ride my bicycle out to the lab later just to try and even the score. oh well... i'm getting caught up on reading a lot of old mitch clem comics if nothing else.

i've been in an exceptionally good mood as of late and i really can't put my finger on why. i'd been seeing this girl for about the last two months, but things were starting to get to a weird point. she was creating distance, i was getting bummed. last week though i swung by her place to pick up my ps2 and was, admittedly, a huge dick. i thanked her for letting me come by and for putting it in a bag for me, wished her luck (she was home sick from work and going to see the doctor the next day), and then left without saying goodbye. i'd hate to say that was it, but since that point i've been more cheery than i've been in quite some time. i know that was being meaner than i should have been, but i've been through this same situation too many times before and let myself get stepped on every single time. i'm sick of it and i sure as hell know my friends are sick of me whining about it. i still really like this girl, but i'm not going to play this game again.

end rant.

so...if you've read this far, thank you.

you know, you and i should get coffee together sometime.

so yeah....
things more blew away than blew over. whatever, life goes on and other potential situations are already turning up. which is comforting if nothing else. and besides, i've got too many other things i'd rather be (and should be for that matter) worrying about.


so tell me, how've you been?

what to do when great relationships take a sudden and unexpected turn? it's looking like i'm just going to be waiting to see where things go from here because i'm decidedly not the person to be calling the shots on this one, and i'm not in much of a position to help deal with the things going on inside of her head.

i'm really hoping that this all blows over in a day or two.

those sheets are dirty, and so are you.

so much for getting around to updating this more huh? i'm starting to feel kinda bad because i'm spending way too much time on myspace and not enough on here. when did this change? i'm supposed to be the guy that hates myspace. oh yeah, that's right....girls. i forget sometimes.

my check from the 8th Note finally came today, so at least i won't be on such a tight financial lockdown for the next week or so. i can finally pay my car insurance, buy my roomate that book of his that i lost, and repay ectasia for what turned into dinner and a movie last night. i was hoping to be able to get a new helmet (there's a crack in the mouth piece on mine), some new boots (coming apart at the seams amongst other places), and finally get those custom Top Gear Tattoo graphics that never materialized last year. i kind of owe it to those guys to start running something on there. that and the old graphics look like shit.

the few weeks have been too lazy for my taste. although who am i to complain about an existance that consists pretty much entirely of reading at coffeeshops, masturbation, and Gran Turismo 4? i haven't been able to do any real work seeing as how the head of every lab containing a furnace was apparently out of the coutry for all of break. oh well, i get paid either way so again, i can't bitch, but it gets boring after a while.

anyways...my pizza's done, it's saturday, and the new Piebald album is up on myscene in its entirity...i think it's going to be a good day.
