I am currently supposed to be packing all my god awful amount of stuff since I have to be out of here on saturday. It is a daunting task and nearly complete...for now.

Here's how it is. I am moving in with my lady, to a sweet loft apartment with a spiral staircase and fireplace, at the of July. I will repeat I have to be out of here by Saturday...for those among you who are chronologically chellanged, that's 2 months gap. So I am moving in with my lady to her current house...but the stupid annoying drunk roommate is coming with us because she couldn't find a place because she didn't specify to our landord that staying until AUGUST was the plan...whatever though. whatever...

in other news...How can anybody in america because under the age of 50 and not know how to use a computer? I'll be more specific...how can anyone under the age of 50 who has had a job in the last 30 years not know how to use a computer? I mean, seriously...I suppose if you have worked only shitty retail jobs for the past 30 years you might not, but many employers switched to computerized schedules ages ago...WTF?

Looking for an apartment is hard! We've been to a dozen places probably and they fall into two categories 1. Beautiful but slightly (or entirely) out of our price range or 2. Complete dumps that we wouldn't live in if they were free.

Okay that's not entirely true, a couple were dumps that were way over priced ($950 for a two bedroom with appliances that could be easily outstripped by something from a thrift store and cheap doors and carpet) and there was a semi nice place that was an okay price but the floor plan was rubbish.

Most likely we will just take the slightly out of range one, get second jobs and live off ramen and frozen burritos.

Dude what is the deal with Penny Arcade?

Nothing like coming home to a lady demanding that we bang in the basement!

I'm convinced my roommate lives in backwards land...In a normal world this is how things would be done...

1. put away clean dishes
2.wash dirty dishes
3. get drunk.

in backwards land this is how thing so

1. get drunk
2. wash dishes
3. pile new clean dishes on top of old dishes and act surprised when you are left with a perilous tower of dishs pots and knives.

another example.

1. Wash clothes
2. Empty dryer lint
3. put wet clothes in dryer
4. run dryer.
5. remove clothes and fold them

backwards land

1. wash clothes.
2. Leave clothes in washer until they smell like mold
3. Put clothes in dryer, run long enough for your cute going out top to dry.
4. leave clothes in dryer
5. start dry, leave partial full beer bottle next to the laundry
6. Empty lint tray onto clothes, counter where beer was left
7. find some clothes for work, leave the rest on the folding table for three weeks.
8. repeat until all of your clothing is on the table next 6 beers of various stages of moldering
9. swear you'll clean it all up over the weekend
10. take four ritalins and clean the entire basement on a tuesday night.


okay not exactly backwards, maybe bizarro world?
2. leave wet clothes in

DAMN YOU DISNEY! No Country for old men is a Miramax film, and Miramax is apparrently now owned by Buena Vista? Which as many of you know it a Disney sub. ergo I cannot buy No Country for Old Men on columbia house, which sucks balls because it's about the only movie I want to buy right now...

Un-scented dryer sheets smell like urine

Arthur C. Clarke died...

Cleaned out the fridge today...<shudder> abandon all hope ye who enter here.

But now I can fit the 50 bucks worth of groceries I splurged on...I mean, it's not the seventy I spent last time and I got more this time becasue I actually looked at the prices.

So if anybody has really paid attention to my profile my big grin is for the fact that I lost my virginity...fucking finally. I mean, I wouldn't say I was in a huge hurry because I felt like I hadn't really found the girl that made me feel like I wanted to rip her clothes off so when I finally DID meet that girl it was totally awesome! Not to mention she had two orgasms! Thank you internet for teaching me those lovely tricks, particularly Babeland!

She has a real hatred for valentines day and thinks that anything done on a holiday of obligatory affection is likely to feel cheapened so we aren't getting together, although she's also got class so that makes things tough. Poor girl has to do couples massages all night. Poor thing.

Lili and I are playing hookey from work and school today...I can't say how nice it is considering we stayed up until 4am...

I got called by three creditors today saying I need to pay my bills...I'm like, "Yeah, I know, i get paid tomorrow. I promise to pay them then...until then you'll just have to wait" One of them even offered to do a phone payment free of charge and I'm like "No, that money in my account is for RENT"

So it turns out that I'm an idiots who doesn't know how taxes work...I was getting all bent out of chape because my federal tax refund is only 12 bucks but then I realized Oh right, I made more than 20000 dollars this years, that's got to mean I'm in a different tax bracket..I'm smart.

Anyway, because I'm getting less back than I thought I will not be able to go to Vegas, nor will I be able to make the short film I had intended to make there. Which sucks...at least I have other ideas though.


Edit:

Okay so I for got to mention something AWESOME...I got to make out with The Cure playing the other night, which is a major milestone for me because, well, they were the first CD I had ever bought and I realized as it was happening that it was something that I'd never done and that I'm glad I have now/

Also, I got mail from the IRS today saying that I now OWE 200 bucks because I suck at life and claimed independent for 2006 even though I was dependent...shit.

Getting close to a month here with my lady and it's pretty sweet...the both of us are no nonsense kind of people, at least as far as relationships go, so we get along pretty dandily.

We went and saw Sweeney Todd last night and had a devilishly fn tie making fun of it. I like to think that's what was intended because it really does make fun of itself and the entire musical genre as a whole...but then what else is Sondheim known for?

The best part was the Emo song "I'm in the dark beside you"

and the fake blood was beyond stagey...it was cartoony...GREAT!
