No wonder people think Americans are jackasses. By the time Europeans are waking up, Americans are just getting home from a night of drinking. Needless to say the resulting conversations aren't pretty.

Anyway... I have mod points! Post here and be modded up (mod points expire in 12 hours or so).

waking up to slowly to find it has been a dream, a lifetime past.
and now I realize I will have to do it all again.
can I mourn the death of a nonexistent self?

Perfection in a bottle. Could there be a greater beer? It's been on sale for three weeks now, $4.99 for a six pack. Good for me, bad for my grades.

I'd like to shake the hand of the genius that came up with that idea. I've never really had good tacos, but I tried making them last night... wow! I could probably eat 20 of em.

Ground beef, cheese, tomato, lettuce and some other stuff. Cook it or something then mix together and eat.

Hm.. it seems I have mod points... come here for all your abusive moderating needs!

Am I forgetting anything? Does it matter?
I'm leaving for Las Vegas in 9 hours for a few days.

I give the award to Ken Park. It's painful to watch.

Before I saw it, I would have given the award to Irréversible, but this movie is at least ten times more disturbing.

I'd write more, but I hate spoiling movies for people.

Definitely the strangest movie I've ever seen- The Doom Generation

I watch a lot of movies, so that's definitely saying something. The copy I saw was the unrated version, so I assume it was more graphic than the R-rated theatrical release. I'm still trying to decide whether I liked it or not (maybe I saw more than there really was?) But any movie that still has me thinking about it the next day can't be all bad.

There are 21,701 roses on the wallpaper of the north side of my kitchen.

And my kitchen has a sliding door! I've been living here for a year, why did I never notice that?

I feel kinda funny (strange-funny, not climbing-rope in-gym-class-funny).

It's dead, Jim!

I can see the sun! I think this is the first non-foggy day since the beginning of June.

Mixed emotions, but overall I think this will be
a good day.

More stuff about the broken window I discovered last night-

I really wish the heating vents were not directly beneath the window. It's going to be a pain to open them up and clean out all the glass shards.

So am I supposed to knock out the rest of the window or just leave it the way it is until I find a window guy?

I'm really glad this is San Diego and I would probably just have the window open anyway.

I came home after being away for a while to find the upstairs sliding glass door shattered.

I don't know what broke it, maybe a bird or something, but I don't think it could have survived the impact and I didn't find a body.

None of my stuff is missing, and if someone wanted to break into my place the 1st floor would have been easier... though a burglar would make for a better story.
