Be careful what you wish for....
The interview went well. So well, in fact, that the day after I got back I got the job.
But I am not 100% happy and it's easy to figure out why.
This is exactly what I wanted in a job. It's exactly in the field I want to be in, it is exactly the type of environment I...

Where are you going on Wedsenday? and what time? And can i bring my knitting?
If I were Dr. Octopus I could do more because I'd have two extra sets of arms. Well, him or Siva. If I were Siva I'd also have a cool, firey sword to smite my enemies.

So, you're on to my game. Tis true, I've been doing photo-journal entries for months now because:
a. my life is boring
b. all I do is take photos
Well, after all this sounds like you could really use that vacation

see... when you've been packing and moving for a week and your washer and dryer don't work because they got flooded, your apartment tends to take on the ass-tastic stench of your sweaty clothing from days gone by. that, and i could probably use a shower myself. 
let me know if you're about on sunday and up for doing something cheap. you know where i'll be.
and i should probably wish you luck on your interview, but the selfish side of me would prefer you didn't move all the way the fuck out there for most of the year. oh the inner conflict.

Okay, okay, I apologize. I haven't kept up my journal much this past week. Sloth and Gluttony reared their ugly heads making any sort of written inspiration nearly impossible. They set up residence in my house and held me captive, forcing me to do their bidding. I was, however able to distract them (with an Xbox and a plate of...

thanks for moving help. yer boat took on th' cargo just fine. take good care of the Duck Wagon, sir. 
Uggg.....now I know how William S. Burroughs' liver felt. I've consumed enough alchohol this weekend to be banned from standing near any open flames for at least three days.
Ever have a "Gin and Vodka?" No? Ask grimjack about it. He cooks up a mean cocktail when he's behind the bar.

Thank you all for your kind words to eviltwin. He is now indebted to me for ever. I'm so happy I could just cry.
Today was a good day, even though I did nothing but do chores for my family members. Every Friday I take Nani (my grandfather) out grocery shopping. He's one of those old-school North Philly Italians who never learned to drive...

Thanks, I downloaded pixia! My tattooist Sarah designed the new work, she knows what I like so I trust her judgement & style.

Glad to have you out and about this weekend, Mr. Lufy. I definitely had a blast. Good times, bud...good times. And in my opinion, that's what its all about. Friends, food, and booze. Floozys too....
Rob and Reg had some kind words to say about you, as did my roomie Ben and ole Delbert. Remind me to tell you the Drunken Ben stories when we go out again...the guy pulled some classic shit. It involved head trauma, pain, and a wasted Sunday afternoon. I actually went BACK to Robs today and finished off the food as well as a few beers. We killed the keg last night as well as half of the booze....nice.
CANBERRA, you TWIT......are you SURE there's tonic water in this drink. 'SHADDAP AND DRINK IT'...mmmm, Gin and Vodka......
LOOK AT THE PURPLE

I want to ask a favor of you. Eviltwin is new here and he's a really cool guy and he needs some lovin'. Take 3 seconds of your SG time to drop him a line, say "hi" in his journal, and/or ruthlessly crush his burgeoning cyber-spirit.

you must not have received the call yet about roof deck party at waxy's on saturday night. you ARE free saturday night, aren't you? if not, ya'll best make yerself available.
m and i may be a tad bit late to it ~ have to help people move out of place we're moving in to, but i think they only have a few heavy items they need help with, so not too long.
ugh. fucking left lights on in car last night. had to walk to pep boys to get car starter thing and it didn't work first time, so now that thing is charging. what a friggin pain in the ass. all because i was too lazy to go to pep boys in the first place to get a replacement for the fuze that blew that controlled my dash lights, rear lights and "you left your fucking headlights on, dumbass" warning bell.

Sweet... I will *definitely* be on the lookout for that one.
To the SG community, I want to thank you for the birthday wishes you gave me. That was a really unexpected gesture, and maybe I'm being a bit sentimental - but I truly appreciated the thought. You've helped make this one of my bestest birthdays, ever!
I miss the balloon next to my name.
Okay, enough mushy stuff....

But shotglass cozy....hmm...gives me an idea...

Gonna be a short one today. "So little to do, so much time.....wait. Strike that, reverse it."
Regarding people's tastes:
Common questions in this vein are usually along the lines of: do you prefer Betty or Veronica, Mary-Ann or Ginger, Elvis or the Beatles, etc.
So, which would you say you prefer:
Christopher Walken or Alan Rickman?

I'm staying in Shinjuku.. in a hotel. I don't really know much about the area so I just booked it anyway.
anything you can tell me about what's up in Tokyo or around there.. would be really cool.

I don't exactly recall your comment but I agree with you about the nature of internet writing. I just find some very reactional comments are made that just don't seem valid to me. I also sometimes forget that not everyone has had the opportunity to learn how to think critically & rationally. Oh well!
Whooo-hoooo! I finally got my hands on a photo editor! Now that I can shrink these enormous files down to less than 100K, I've been able to put pics in my pics section.
Come see, come see!
In other news, I have to leave for Boston, tonight. I won't be back until Monday evening. I wish I could say it was for pleasure - I...

Hey, carpetbagger and scalawag. If you really want to see them, my comments on F 9/11 are in a2_stud's journal. The more I think about the film, the more "seamless" it seems in terms of linking causalities and outcomes. Is this a type of overdetermination? I'm not sure. Let's discuss!

Hey, thanks for the kind words. Sometimes I think SG was sent down from heaven just for me
I was looking at your pics. I just got done remodeling my place and a total rehab of my sister's place. I do decent work but I'm really slooooow.
Looks like you're south of city hall; south philly?
By the way, I also understood there would be no math. I should have listened to mom...

Highlights from a July 4th roof-top party (as I remember them):
First and foremost - spending time w/ a horribly depressed friend and being able to make her laugh and forget about the tough times she's been going through - even if only for a little while.
Second - Chimay and smores
Third - Fireworks every which direction we looked
Fourth - Getting so pissed...

The lingering on the MJ scene was there so that the collective gasps and squeals of nerds across America didn't drown out any further words.

So am I the only one without a roof top in view of the Art Museum? Actually...I can't really get to my roof, unless I want to frighten my neighbors, which could be funny.
I'm glad you had a good 4th. Besides driving alot I ate really good vegan food, walked in the ocean, and saw the Michael Moore movie.
