8:58 PM, on the computer

Well I'm back... I guess. I never really left, I just sort of took a break to get a life. It's been two months since I've updated my page, and it was so long that I forgot my name and password, having accumulated various more handles and passwords since then. My life has drastically changed since you last heard from yours truly, and here's a basic summary of what's going on in Ma vie de dement:

-- I met a girl, sorta. I've known her for two years now, but two weeks ago I had a chance to see her in person for the first time. I'm in love, to say the least. I think. Anywho.

-- I'm still working at Spencers, although I nearly got kicked out of my house because of it. My parents can't stand the fact that I work there, but hey... when God convicts me I'll quit. So far He hasn't.

-- The convention fell through big time, and I'm glad I didn't sign my name to anything because lack of people knowing it was off meant a lot of potential lawsuits... which would have really sucked. Jeff saved our butts badly.

-- Gone is my anime, star wars stuff, comic books, most of my cds, etc etc etc totalling a list of over $5000 of stuff I threw away. In short order my old life is gone... don't ask why, it's a story that still somewhat ticks me off, but I strangely feel good about it.

-- I found out from first-hand experience that God has a weird sense of humor. Don't ask...

-- I had my name smeared in the mud a lil by a group I won't mention. It didn't tick me off, but man it brought some serious hits to my website despite the fact half of the high school I graduated from thinks I'm gay. Screw 'em... oh wait, God bless... oops. ;)

-- I've discovered Five Iron Frenzy, probably one of the greatest bands I've ever heard of, and certainly the best Christian band on the planet... well, next to Honeylocust. I heard one song on a live CD then owned three of their CDs a week later. Amazing band.

-- I own a copy of Transformers the movie. Go me. *does the tootsie roll*

Well back to modern life, Y2K was a big flop, just as I predicted. Only three things happened that I know of:

The date on the information channel in Savannah, TN read "Jan 1, 1900" for a few days
A friend of mine was cut off from the internet, but she just got right back on.
I heard that someone's computer blew up, but it was made in 1980-something and probably had nothing to do with the fact that coke was spilled on the cpu...

School's going good actually, despite the fact I'm actually paying. I stepped down from the school's highest paid scholarship for the main reasons that I don't have time for band, I'm tired of the fear of losing my scholarships because of grades, and quite frankly I'm tired of some of the people in it... it really sucks walking in a place and having everyone look down on you at once. God may love them but I think they're jerks.

I'm talking to Kelsey right now, and the only thing that keeps going through my head is how much I love this girl... Lord, don't let me mess up with her, I think you owe me a favor for that Jessica fiasco... what do you mean that was my fault? Oh, you have a point... yeah yeah I know... grrr....
A little advice to you people out there, never argue with God... He'll always win because He not only knows everything you've done, but everything you could do.

I've had the urge to start a band... if I do I'm singing lead, cause I'm not getting stuck on sax as a no name. Good Lord, my socks are dirty... whew... stinky too.

I FINALLY shaved... Kelsey didn't get to see me clean shaven, but then again I don't think she cared. Y'know, I'm going to rant about her *grins* First of all any picture you see of the girl, no matter how nice, would NOT do her any justice... I love the girl, but she can't take a picture to save her life (she knows, I've told her). I came to this realization after seeing her in person and thinking "Wait, this can't be her... she is WAY more beautiful than in her pictures". She still doesn't believe me when I say she's beautiful, but hey who cares, she's my private fantasy and if I want to give the girl an ego boost I'm gonna give the girl an ego boost *grins* Get ready girl...

Anywho back to her, hoo boy I don't think her parents like me... which is strange, because I always make a good impression with parents. She says they liked me, but I dunno... I wouldn't be too keen if my 17 year old daughter was "seeing" a almost 20 year old she met on the internet of all places. Hey did I mention how cute the girl is?

If you're getting sick of hearing about her, tough crap *grins*

I wish more people could have met her though, I did end up seeing a lot of people I knew, and she thinks I know half the population of Tupelo now, but well it's not that hard and besides I work in a mall for crying out loud... I had the everloving crap embarassed out of me when I took her to where I worked, because my ass't manager said that my "lil buddy was trying to get out" and I thought he was talking about something else when in fact he was talking about Gary... which I don't see how Eric used Gary and little in the same sentence... I showed her the access hall I took going into work, she seemed to enjoy the tour. *grins*

I took her out to eat at a restaurant, and I would have taken her to meet Courtney, Molly, and mom, and taken her to the park but her parents said she couldn't leave the mall. Man I almost cried when she left... it was easily the best three hours of my life so far.

And man I miss her... God, I'm gonna be ticked off if I don't end up with her. Oh great... He said "no comment"... hmph.

Well so concludes my rant about Kelsey, at least for now. If you're lucky ;) ya feeling lucky... punk?

Is it just me or is it seeming that I've lost my edge? Oh well, I'll get it back, give me time... now that I have a life I'm not as bitter anymore... just wait til I get ticked off, I'll be back.

Well I'm reading Mick Foley's autobiography now, and man... it's pretty funny, the guy's got a great sense of humor but the worst part is he's really honest about a lot of things, especially his reaction to some women... yeesh. *shudders*

Well Courtney is my sister now, no kidding... Dad adopted her for tax purposes... really... speaking of redheads, I think I've finally gotten over my obsession for redheads, despite the fact Kelsey's one.

9:47 PM, still on the computer

Monkey.

9:48 PM, still on the computer

In case you didn't hear me the first time...

Monkey.

10:42 PM, still on the computer

Ooh, I just found a kick butt FIF shirt... I must have it. Hmmm... Kelsey... I must have her too. Wait. I already do *grins* heh heh heh...

11:04 PM, printing a FIF mail order form

Hey, does anyone remember Trapper Keepers? Those things rocked... I wonder whatever happened to them, and to the Mead corporation for that matter.

Kelsey just informed me that there's a woman that's going to be on Leno that paints with her breasts... I wonder if she's going to give a demonstration *L*
