Am I so tired because there's too much to do, or is there too much to do because I'm too tired to do any of it?
Blah.
Blah.

It didn't seem all that long ago that dating someone was tough. You had all these ups and downs and it was a big rollercoaster soap opera drama miniseries - worthy of an Emmy nomination.
This time around it seems too easy. We dig on the same stuff and her friends are great. Highly compatible music tastes. Similar vices. Complementary social agendas. Oh, it's all...

Thanks, I needed that smile.
I just had the most heinous encounter... the guy who is in charge of my funding happened to be leaving the anthro building at the same time as I was. He asked if I was going to go to the bar with him and my classmates. I said no. He asked if I had been to my community service lately. I said no. He walked away. My money is contingent on my community service.
Shitshitshit. Why can't I lie?
Now to clean up this fuck up.

Uggghhh...I can relate, my friend. It seems that we are often defined by labels, and it's easier for those around us to recognize our lives if they can put us into categories. Give them credit for having interest in your life...=)
If things burn too hot, they are likely to fizzle out, but too easy? Enjoy it! It doesn't come along very often...keep your eyes open and you'll be fine. Enjoy your happiness, it's nice to see you smiling!

I finally got all of my committee members to agree on a date for my thesis defense today. Just about a month from now. 
It's nice that there's a light at the end of this dark tunnel. Unfortunately, that light is coming from a big fucking freight train heading right towards me.

Booo! Happy Thursday! HA! 
More personal misery, fictional or otherwise, than anyone should subject themselves to in a 24-hour period.
First, I was in the mood for a movie. freddyg loaned me The Rules of Attraction, and it was one of the best movies I've seen lately. Another Bret Easton Ellis novel adaptation. But ultimately, its truth and familiarity crushed my spirit.

Hahahahaha... that picture is beyond priceless.
I did go on my trip alone but as expressed by a true Southern belle, "I've always depended on the kindness of strangers."
Additionally, I had intended to go to New Mexico... but realized that gas is fucking expensive and I hadn't really investigated my part of the state. So, I actually went to a couple places about an hour away. *shrug* It was still a very sexy trip.
I may be jealous of the orange chip/Mrs Dash concoction. As tasty as it may sound, eating cold peas out of a can is not particularly great.

You'd be surprised how much money can be made stalking!!
CDS is a magazine fulfillment bureau (communication data services) they are based in Des Moines but have facilities all over Iowa. I thought they had one in Ames, maybe not. I flew out to Des Moines 5 years or so ago for a seminar they were giving. I was working for a magazine at the time that used CDS. And that is the one and only time I've ever been in Iowa. While there, a group of us stumbled upon a dance club serving Miller Lite for 99 cents!!!! We shut the place down and tried to get back to the hotel through all those tunnels above the streets just to find that they are closed and locked in different places and we couldn't figure out how the hell to get back to the hotel. Thank goodness we didn't run into any nice Iowa police officers...can you say public intox!?!?

From my "honest face", you might think I'm a pretty straight-laced kind of guy.
Everyone who actually gets to know me is surprised that I've got a mouth full of fuck and a pocketful of cock jokes.

I have never heard the expression "christ on a crutch" where are you both from...the midwest or something?!?!
Glad you like Nellie McKay. I can't stop listening to her. And I find myself laughing out loud at some of her lyrics. Clever girl she is!

Today brings clarity to a cloudy situation, and it stands exactly as I imagined. But a resolution is still elusive.
I desperately need to get out to the desert and spend a few days solo. Just me, the rocks, the lizards, and some sparse vegetation. Soon...

Precision drilling...hmmm... interesting....What kind of stuff do you like to make, drill man...? There's something very appealing about a man who likes to use hand tools.
They have been calling for snow here all day, but so far, nothing. Weather people are right about 10 percent of the time, it seems. But measuring in the inches in March, I'll pass on that.
Strip clubs, huh? You know, it's not as rare as you think. I can't think of any girls I know that DON'T love to go. Maybe I should introduce my group of friends to yours...?

from you're perspective it may look like six inches, but from my experience, its way more than that

Whoo. Another week dead and gone in practically no time. One of these days, I'm going to wake up to the realization that it's October already.
I find myself wondering if I'm too tired to drink. Is such a thing possible?
Nah! >crack, shisssssh, glug<

Perhaps I would drink away this week's misfortune if I weren't too damn lazy to drive to the liquor store... or the grocery store... or even the freaking drug store. Oh well, I guess I'll have to survive by being intoxicated by SG beauty.

Happy Belated Birthday!!
I've been gritting my teeth trying not to think about it, and now the topic has come up in two separate phone conversations tonight. I'm borderline ragin'.
So I've got this paranoid delusional friend who's extremely bitter about this girl not digging him and he acts like everyone is conspiring to sabotage him. This has caused a serious rift in our friendship, culminating in his...

Yup, my air name is Zero Gravity, and I'm on after Phil Dirt. Thanks for listening! It's always good to know who's listening outside of the Bay Area

if you need anything from me man, just mention it.
Best. Birthday. Ever.
freddyg and I had a mutual party Friday night, since his birthday was Friday and mine was today. Almost everyone I know showed up, even those two who never go to the bar. D0ug was even up from the big KC.
It was one of those rare times where you can do a freeze frame, take a step back, get a good...

you rock, alas, i went back to work and proceded to sober up while fucking with our futures. luckilly i appear to have been successful, we shall see.
Have you ever had one of those extremely passionate relationships, where it's always either "Oh god I fucking love you so much I want to die." or "Did you already do the dishes? I want to stab you with a dirty fork."
Inevitably these polar opposite emotional states lead to violently angry sex, in which you're trying to fuck the other person into oblivion.
