Life around me is moving normally, but I don't feel normal. Like I'm at a standstill. What's with that?

wtf?

there is an international rock paper scissors competition. the grand prize for the world rps champion? $1200. woopty freakin doo.

i did something unusual last night. i watched a ballet on tv. it was based on othello, and i actually enjoyed some of it. iago's character was really cool. a lot of times everyone would be dancing on stage and he would just walk across completely stoic, totall badass. good times.

I made that bet with you as an incentive to break up with Ryan! I explained to you about "chick talk", which is a major breach of guy secrecy, and what would you have done without my Maxim as the final proof of Ryan's strategy? Not only that but I leave in a month and many people give people that are leaving GIFTS. And despite all this you want 20 dollars. I swear you try and you try to be good and help people out and do you ever get thanked ? Of course not. I really must question why I am supposed to be "nice." Its like inviting people to come screw you over anytime they want. From now on I share my knowledge with NO ONE! NO ONE! You're all on your own.

I just wrote 7 pages of stuff about the last week on my journal...and that is the public post. I'm writing a non public post so that I don't have to censor as much. Wow.

I broke it off with Ryan today, after work. While we were talking it out (for an hour), I suddenly understood what Jason and Mike meant by "chick talk." Not only that, but I read somewhere in Mike's Maxim about how guys should handle something what Ryan I were dealing with and it actually said for the guy to say the same things (as in, repeat) that the female says in the conversation. Ryan did. I thought that was kinda interesting.

Anyway, that, with my grandfather's death, and Jason being gone again has me all a mess.

Mike, stop bleeding. I can't visit you with so much blood around. And you owe me $20 bucks.

Yes. Good bye Jason I miss you already. I am fine with ambulance drivers provided they accept responsibility for rear ending two cars when it's their fault which he did. Id also like to know why the fuck I keep bleeding My nose on Friday, then scraping my knee and hand, then it bled two more times today. That's bullshit. But if someone got me a good tape recorder Id feel much better. Hint Hint Wink Wink

I'm SOOO excited. I'm half packed for the day. I know that sounds scary...packed. But if you think about it, I have a lot of stuff. Food, drinks, chair, wet suit, bogey board, towels/blankets, warm clothes, beach clothes, and other stuff. But I have a cool jeep to carry it all and I can't wait to see everyone. Hopefully I won't be completely burnt by the time other people show up.

So, if ANYONE would like to come to beach early with me (like, leave around 11am), call my house and leave a message. I won't be home for any real time until Saturday evening because I'll be working and today is my day off, so I'm going to take FULL advantage of it and do as much as I possibly can. If my step mom picks up, she'll leave the message for me. Thank you for all the help, Sarah and Mike. I've been swamped with everything since my grandfather's conditon worsened like it did. I've been kinda numb, tyring to figure everything out.

The way I see it is this: I'm gonna call Sarah to make sure I know where I'm going. I'm going to beg Elena to come early with me so I'm not bored all day and see if anyone has a copy of Fight Club so that I can read while I'm getting sun burned and bored at the beach. Then I'll leave at 9 or something to get there REALLY early (cause I drive kinda fast, but I've never been through 17) and hang out until people show up. Yay. I'll call around to find out who is bringing what food. I call the desert type snacks cause Brian and I have been planning that part for weeks. Other people bring toys and stuff. I'm bring my bogey board and a wet suit. Anything I'm forgetting??

Okay, I wasn't sure you recognized me. Its nice to know I'm not entirely forgetable.

I have work today, but I don't want to go.

My grandfather is going to die today or tomorrow they think. I found out last night. I just keep thinking that I can't handle more of this death thing. That will be three this year. I guess to make up for the 0 for last year. I should go visit him, but with work, I can't. Besides, I don't think I would be able to stay strong for him.

I thought it was JC Pennys. And you think I dont have better things to do than come and bug you....Hmmmm.

Couldn't blog last night or this morning so...

Wow. That was one of the most boring parties I've ever been to. Thank god for TV and DVDs. I think it was mainly because I didn't really know anyone there except 3 people. Sarah we need to make sure the beach party isn't a flop. Let's get cracking on that right away... I thought of something else to blog about but damned if I remember. Fuck, I need a tape recorder. (Shakes head) If the Da Vinci Code is really good maybe I can blog on that in a few days.

Also good news I remembered today what I was thinking of. The Carl's Jr. commercial that starts with in the Franco Prussian war the french surrendered, in WW II the french surrendered etc. then says....Dont be a chicken. Eat one. Carl's chicken whopper blah blah. Is that great or what~! Almost finished the Da Vinci Code. Great book so far. A bit short. Might offend you if you're an insanely devout Catholic. But hey the truth hurts. So yeah Sarah call me we need to figure out whos going, whos driving and whos bringing what. Its only a week away. And June 21st I get "The Order of the Phoenix." w00t.

hey, to give myself some credit i knew who you were once i realized someone was saying my name. and i'll keep the secret a secret. id like to go to the beach if i could find a ride because i have done like, nothing at all since I've been back besides work and read a lot. its fun.
posted by Anonymous 3:01 PM


 
I must say, that is a pretty good quote Sarah. As for scheduling, its impossible to say when I will and won't be available. The retail job has a weekly schedule which is posted two days before the week starts, making me put my life on hold until I know what is going on there. The box office job has a monthly schedule, which is extremely nice and I can do pretty much anything I want with it. So, I will have to tell you as the game dates show up.

Yesterday, much to my horror, but at the same time, amusement, Megan showed up the retail job, which I purposely left nameless so that you people (mostly Mike) can't show up and bug me. I was kinda surprised to see her and at first she wasn't sure who I was. I gave her info about the beach, so that is another possible person for the trip. :) It was nice to see someone I knew and didn't laugh or something.

Sarah you were crippled and I don't recall you having a set coming up. Only Brian did. Otherwise I would not have done it because I would have been stretched too thin to deal with 40 units. swarming in from Greenland, Kamchatka, and Central America. Anyways didn't you find my description thrilling? It wasn't a post about how I kicked your ass it was just supposed to be entertaining.
posted by Mikael, Shady, God 2:08 PM


 
Hey Sarah, are you having these game nights every week?? If so, let me know when and where and maybe I can find a way to show up. With work, its hard, but I can try.

Little dead in here? Maybe I need to rouse the troops?

Speaking of troops I have just returned from Sarah's where I participated in the most intense world domination scenario I've ever been in.

Picture this: My Asian Defensive Line consisting of nearly 7 cannon, 7 cavalry and scattered infantry holds Afghanistan the Middle East and the Urals securing all land routes to Europe and Africa. As the the territories of the Icelandic Imperial Forces sit safely behind this indomitable wall incapable of being attacked by the weakened armies of the Struggling Sarah based out of N. America and the Besieged Brian of Australia the rest of Asia has become a war torn battleground with territory constantly shifting as the two struggle for soldiers to rejuvenate their struggling empires. Sarah holds Kamchatka relatively securely with 7 infantry while Brian has created a massive fortress in Siam consisting of 2 cannons some cavalry and 3 infantry.


Hegemon Mikael's Spy network informs him Brian has gathered a massive amount of reinforcements from men conscripted throughout the war torn Asian continent. (He will soon have a set of territory cards) This army will number nearly thirty five battalions in addition to the regular reinforcements coming out of Australia. Mikael acts quickly with 15 added units to the Asian Defensive Line and a massed assault from the Middle East into India. India falls quickly and the bottom of the Asian Defensive Line quickly shifts to India. Ranalli secures her positions in Kamchatka and Alask as well as Greenland and Central America preventing an assault from S. America which the Icelandic Imperial army also controls. Brian amasses more units into the fortress state of Siam as well as gaining control of Irkutsk fulfilling his final number requirements for his conscription drive. Brian is now poised to be a serious threat and continue the Global War for years to come.


The Icelandic Imperial Army can allow the war to drag out. Their ranks are growing and soon they too will have a surge of nearly 40 units. Mikael however decides the bloodshed can no longer continue and devises a plan to end this here and now. The Asian Defensive Line mobilizes with lightning speed the top section pours into Siberia, Yakutsk and Irkutsk easily pushing out the scattered and overwhelmed forces of Sarah and Brian. Thus ensuring Sarah cannot push into Asia anytime soon and securing the almost undefended countries behind the line from an attack by Sarah. The middle section pushes into Mongolia and China with minimal losses and then speed onto Siam launching a series of cursory assaults and reconnaissance missions to weaken Siam. The bottom of the line filled with the most elite and battle hardened of the Icelandic troops launch a full out invasion on the heavily fortified Siam. Losses are high on both sides. When the dust settles Siam has fallen but at a high price. Only 1 cannon, 1 cavalry and some infantry remain. The fight is not over.


As long as the forces of Brian have a place to regroup and retaliate from those recruits can be used and with the heavy losses, sudden expansion and minimal protection of countries behind the now ragged line nearly a half to three quarters of the Icelandic Empire could fall. The forces of muster and rally from their victory at Siam and push into Indonesia quickly but by the time they've taken New Zealand only a cannon and an infantry remain against the cavalry and infantry of East Australia and the two infantry units stationed in western Australia. The fighting in East Australia is intense and bloody. Only 4 infantry remain to push into the heart of the evil Empire of Brian and finish what has been started.


One infantry unit battle weary and run ragged quickly falls to the fresh and well trained troops of Western Australia. Another falls before finally a W. Australian infantry unit is destroyed. What could quite possibly be the fate of the world hangs in the hands of one elite, battle hardened yet weary and weakened Icelandic infantry unit. Brian rolls a 2! Certainly all is lost for Australia. Mikael's dice flies from his cup! Not wanting to touch it now that its in flight Mikael lets it land...on his jeans and land at a slight slant at 5. Brian cries reroll and Sarah of course agrees angered at her earlier losses in Greenland and South America and to allow her to attack the forces of Brian which would stretch too thin in a retaliatory attack. Mikael curses.


He gathers the troops and delivers a rousing speech promising a lifetimes supply of Icelandic women and comforts to whoever kills the most Aussies in the coming battle. Brian's forces attack at a 5! All is lost. The Icelandic Empire has crumbled...or has it? The Icelandic Infantry Unit #314 defends with complete and total bloodlust counterattacking at....a 6! The Australian empire has crumbled and Brian has been hung. It is now only a matter of months before N. America crumbles and the world falls under the benevolent rule of Mikael. All Hail Mikael Hegemon!


Told you I would win Sarah. :-P

I constantly say to myself, "Mike. You need a tape recorder to record these little bursts of genius you have before you get distracted by shingy things and forget." And then I say, "Goddammit I am so right." This has been happening for over a year now. Why do I still not have the tape recorder? Is it because I forget? Is it because I hesitate to buy one without knowing what the best ones are out there on the market? Is it because Im too lazy to find out what the best ones on the market are? Well yes technically those are all reasons but mostly I think it's because none of you have bought me one for my birthday or christmas or my baptism etc. Let's get on it people. Luckily when Jason's here I can just say (since he'll be near me almost all the time) "Oh damn that was brilliant. Jason remember that." That's what I used to do and it worked well. Then the bastard moved.

i got to see lots of naked people today. its a tradition here that every year on the last day of classes (not including finals) people go streaking in the quad around noon. they had it choreographed (sp im sure) to music and stuff, very impressive. i was afraid that it would be all guys, but there were actually a lot of ladies out there too. good times were had by all.
posted by Jason 4:58 PM


 
No, I'm probably not driving you, because I have to get the beach early and you'll be waiting for Jason to get out of church (which is closer to my house, now that I think about it). Yes, it is the same Brian. You spelled Elena's name wrong. And Ryan gets to deal with Jason being around...he knows about the bonfire and the week that I won't be as available as usual. I've barely managed to convince him that Jason is not a threat to our relationship, but Wednesday of that week I have to give entirely to him...its our three month thingie. He wants to do something. Other than that, its fine. The only problem is, EVERYONE seems to be bugging me about that. Can Ryan handle Jason being in town? Oy. I guess it was pretty obvious how head over heels I was last year. Times change. Anyway, Ryan will not be going to bonfire. As mean as it sounds, I uninvited him. I thought it would be uncomortable for too many people, but mainly me. I don't want to have think about every word I say. I want to have fun. Ryan also has some issues with Brian...Brian and I got close right before Ryan started making moves again and he was convinced that Brian would get me first. *rolls her eyes* So, to make things easier, he will not be attending.

It's Inhuman by the way. So say you have respect for the job I've done for three plus years. Say it! :) Im pretty sure the bonfire is going to happen if thats what you mean by trip. Hopefully Im getting that Sunday and the following Monday with my personal days so Ill only have to work Thursday night out of the entire week you're here J. For better or for worse. ;) Oh how's Ryan feel about Jason being around?

posted by Jason 10:04 PM


 
Then you'll only be waiting for Jason, Mike. And I'm sorry about the name thing. And no, you didn't tell me about your truck...I thought that was why I was doing all the driving when we do stuff. Anyway, I saw Brian today and he mentioned that people got together last night and discussed the trip thing, so it sounds more and more like its going to happen. I've volunteered to get there early and get royaly sunburned to a crisp to ensure that we get a fire pit. I'm making sure that I have the day off tomorrow.

If things with retail don't get better fast, I'm quitting. The conditions are unhuman. I can get another job.

Why must you call me names? My truck has been working for ages. I can't believe you thought it wasn't. I told you it was fixed a long time ago. Anyways we'll have to wait and see how many there are going and whos got a car etc. to know the best seating arrangements. But I should be getting one of my personal days on Sunday so I should be off the whole day.

Wow. Just a few days and you already don't care about losing your job. I hope you have a newfound respect for my +3 years in retail. :)

Mike, am I supposed to be driving you to the beach, since your truck is not working?? I wanted to get there in the afternoon. (this is why I'm telling you about the date now so you can get it off, FREAK) I also figured that since Jason was going to be with you and you were probably going to come with me, that Jason was also going to be in my car...I don't know. For other invites, I or Sarah need some contact form...phone or email. Thanks.

I can't think. No funny stories for retail. Something weird though...I am in the cosmetics and acessories department. Me...who is the anti chick with the crappy make up and smelly stuff. And now I smell like men's cologne all the time and the assistant manager has a total power trip. I'm going to complain against her and if I get fired, I DON'T CARE...I have the other job still, I'll probably be getting more hours and I'm getting a *big* raise next month. But this retail crap is annoying as hell.

Retail is hell. But its money, which is what I keep reminding myself. However, because of the new job, all of my summer trip plans are canceled. Grr. I might have to rearrange some things so that I can still get some fun in. And yes Sarah, do another bonfire, but plan a couple weeks ahead so that people with jobs can request the day off and actually show up or something. :) Sorry the last one was such a flop. Anyhoo, time for bed since I have retail work tomorrow. I have to be extra pleasant.

For better or for worse I am now back on the internet. Yahwee! Gosh I love that. So was it hell Brat? You seemed to imply it but just for clarity Id like to know. And yes I have liked our arrangement so far. Finally you tell me the frigging dates J. Which Im sorry to say are just no good for me. You'll have to find somewhere else. HEHE But seriously how many times do I have to say you can stay here? I wouldnt turn you away even if you showed up out of the blue. As you yourself have said, and I quote, "I also have to say you've really been there for me when I need it. Doing nice things too, like that surprise breakfast at Dennys the morning I was leaving. Mike, youre the truest friend I've had, even though you're also the biggest jerk I know." As for you Munky hope youre enjoying Jackass and you definitely have to do the bonfire when Jason is here. I'll make sure to show up to that one. On an unrelated but interesting note Matt Pistana (sp?) is dating my sister. Why? I don't know. He can do better that's for sure. Maybe she's easy? There will also be a few changes to the site soon. Nothing Major. Just a name change pretty much but Im keeping you all updated.

For some reason, I thought the story would end with you saying "I punched him so hard my fist hurt" or something. Must be because I'm home from a 7 hour shift at my new retail job which Mike warned me would be hell. On the up hand, I get a discount, and since I was in the men's section a lot today, I saw lots of stuff that I thought all my male friends might like.
