Oh huzzah our troops are saved!
Armenia has announced they will send troops to Iraq. I guess it's a better Christmas present than a visit by Rumsfeld.

Downtown was crazy today. I didn't expect so many people to be out shopping so late. And I kept getting distracted by all the pretty girls (where are they when I'm on campus?), but eventually I managed to...

Argh... I sat down to write the last last last paper for my Soc class last night and while re-reading the assignment realized that it was due on Thursday, by 4PM, in hardcopy.

I'm too used to the school of engineering where things are due either Friday or Sunday, at midnight in electronic form only.

Fuck me. I guess I'll write something... and instead of...

I'm no good at school either. I signed up to read books and write stories, not write 12 page papers on feminist theory.

he feeds them with a lot of help from his wife's family, his stepson's fathers' child support checks, (all those assholes are good for, but that's another topic) and the government, which subsidizes their rent and i think gives them some WIC money.

She apologized...
I didn't think it would happen, ever. But I was wrong and she's more intelligent and much nicer than I have previously given her credit for.

Long story short, an ex-g/f was suddenly interested in going out again about a year ago. "Cool" says me, but wait, turns out she's going through a break-up and needs an external lever to force her current...

gay ass cops.

i should clarify, failing creative writing would cause me to have to spend an additional quarter, on top of next winter and spring. so hopefully i will only have 2 more quarters, but if i fail, i will have 3.

Hey, I replaced my crank. We should ride sometime.

School is heavy. It weighs down and makes me constantly assess the marginal cost of leaving vs. the marginal benefit of staying.

In my stupid soc class everyone gets together to bash on the World Bank for giving loans to 3rd world countries so they can develop their infrastructure. Apparently these countries tend to blow the money on coke and hookers, then get trapped in...

I feel similarly about everything you posted about. School absolutely crushes me.

I would love to ride my bike to school but I'm so out of shape that I'm scared to start. Whereabouts do you bike from? Maybe we could bike together sometimes.

Hey Mang,

I'm totally spent and can't do anything at all today. I won an alleycat race yesterday, though. It was super fun. Also my cranks are fucked up and they don't hold my pedals in them any more. I'll probably get them fixed this week. You should call me and we'll get together. My number is 818-3025.

Grrr... I can't go this weekend. I'm going to SLO to visit my mom. Some other time, eh?

My mom drove all the way up from SLO county to deliver a homemade chocolate cheese cake for me.

Then we went downtown and walked around... she commented that it was too bad we didn't have a chilly overcast day because we could have gotten hot chocolate next to Bookstore Santa Cruz.

Apparently I inherited my love of grey days. Soon enough we should have...

I'm ok with them lying through their teeth, hehe smile

When politicians tell the unabated truth, that's when you know we REALLY are all in trouble!

How are you sir? I finally found a table of econ terms useful for people like you, KtKate and TFOK, but also useful for econ newbies too. Unfortunately there are a couple hundred terms and none of it is online...I guess I will start this weekend and see where I end up. biggrin

Santa Cruz is a cesspool.

On the walk from the bus to my car I saw:
1 dead homeless man.
2 guys breaking into a VW van
3 junkies sitting on a bench nodding
In like two blocks. Bleh.

When I was in Basel, there was one homeless guy that I saw in the 3 months I was there. I saw him a couple times,...

w00t for the new weather. It's finally nice and grey the way a beach town should be.
You know that scene in Angelheart where Johnny meets the fat man sitting on the beach with a piece of cardboard on his nose, a "sun shield"?
They're the only ones on this windswept east coast beach on a Fall morning. It's fuckin' gorgeous and always makes me...

yeah frat hazings don't work too good in a town where nothing's so unusual as to be embarassing.
