In fact, the beauty of living 2500 miles from "home" is that your sister can't sleep with your exes. Hah. No, she didn't sleep with the most recent, instead she slept with my very first boyfriend. Yes, the boy who I dated in 7th and 8th grade. So glad I was too young to have sex with him!

PS-- I'm originally from very (very!) rural Delaware. This kind of situation is a commonplace occurrence. We're all a bunch of hicks and rednecks afterall. Being from Iowa, I'm sure you understand.

*edit* I added some pictures of funness today, just in case you're curious.

We will begin your musical education today on a serious note: Reflections of the Vandals' Late 20th Century Esoteric Period Juxtaposed With Their Earlier Escalante Sessions Era.

Well, I wasn't quite sure if Justin was coming out of nowhere with the birthday thing so I decided not to be pre-emptive. And I guess I could have looked at your birthdate on your profile... but whatever.
Oh, and besides... it isn't your birthday here yet. Yeah. That makes me feel better.
*mwahahahhaa*
According to Arizona time, you are not yet old(er).
*smiles*
As for the breaking up thing-- some boy who is dumb decided that I am not a worthwhile companion because I won't agree to marry him after dating for a month. (Umm, I'm crazy but not that crazy!)

Okay, I can now officially (according to backward-ass Arizona time) wish you a birthday of happiness, cheese fries and snow shovels.
So yes, happy birthday or somesuch.

I forgot to tell you earlier since I was on edge with the demos. Thought it might put a little steam in your stride.

What in the world are you up to that leads to sleep dep? Don't tell me that you're staying up late trying to solve the problems of the world.

In other news, I had one exam... in my eyes, it has been completely rationalized. For it to be possible to get an A in this class, I had to get a 67 or higher. I'm pretty sure I accomplished that task.

Now I just have to decide if I'm going to be running away for spring break... since part of my fellowship money got dumped into my bank account the other day. If I had planned ahead I would have gone to the Grand Canyon and I'm sure as hell not going to Vegas. I guess driving up and down the Pacific Coast is still an option.

freddyg: Ames' most provocative camwhore!

BTW, Jessica wants to check out the studio. I told her to give you a call Friday afternoon. Schwing low, sweet freddyg!

BFC brought together a lot of things I already knew into a cohesive theory of America. I used to think the world was fucked in a chaotic sense. Now I think we're systematically fucked.

Either way, I take a grim pleasure in being alive and getting to watch it all going down, even if I have to go down with it.

Side note: I liked Charleton Heston better when he was Juda Ben-Hur. In chains. Whipped repeatedly. Sweaty.

With horses.

amen to both replies

Haha. The weather has been lovely in Iowa, huh? Strange because it is almost always lovely in Tucson... it has been rainy and "cold" (below 60) the past couple of days. Heh. I guess this is to get back at me for last week when it was sunny and 80.

(for JustinXL) The reason you can't lead a skinned cat to water is because cats will not be followers, only leaders.

For whatever reason this whole "add friend" feature is beyond me. I added you. You appeared on my list twice. I clicked one to remove you and now you're totally gone. Oh, I hate my life.

Hey, I was just wandering through your pics and I was wondering if all the artsy things were things you had done.
Additionally, Mythbusters is a hella cool TV show.

This shows my archaeological nerd-itude, but one of the things that I think can never be found archaeologically is the individual. Perhaps this concept applies to our present archaeologies? Meaning that, especially in the case of other people, all we can discover are material correlates of their behaviors. We cannot explicitly know motivation or pretense outside our own. And even then... we sometimes bury our desires so deeply that we "don't know" the exact cause of our doing something. I believe it is possible for us to know ourselves... but not others.

i have to agree with your analogy, we can not see the choices made by any individual, past or present, but only the results of those choices. perhaps the only difference is that with people alive today, we may be able to reach a more concrete understanding through deep explanation directly from the individual. but i still believe that we have so many things about ourselves that we dont understand, that in most cases, even the individual in question cannot completely convey the underlying cause of their choices.

i do agree that at some point (different for everyone) we should be able to reach an understanding of ourselves. part of the problem is that i think that it is just recently (in the human evolution) that people have really wanted to understand themselves, and we dont know how to figure that out yet (as a population)

to break it down, i agree with everything you said. its a matter of degree, i think i have less faith in the knowing of oneself, than you do.

that would be my friend justin, if the bitch ever starts a journal, stop by and say hi to him

Morgan = totally rockin hot.
*rawr*

If you attempted that line on me, I would probably go back to my friends and tell them what a tool you were... unless, of course, I were totally trashed. In such a case I would likely giggle and walk away.
