There is no one better ;)


Having a really good day at school, been watching King Arthur's Disaters in the art room with my Art teacher because we're cool like that. Now we're watching Harry Potter during my study and lunch because we're heckers.

Had a party for my Society and Culture teacher too, who is leaving to have her baby (she NEEDS to name it after me if its a girl) and we all played Disney Scene It.

And then its the long weekend!

Far out, could this week get any better? :)

Ugh… a long hot weekend for me. If I could spare the fuel I'd go to the beach and sketch the scenery on my sketchpad. No… not girl watching… I'd probably be torn apart by their husbands/boyfriends/girlfriends…

It's so hot outside I can't do anything. One of the problems with high blood pressure is that the heat can do strange things to you. One time I stayed out so long while cutting down a lot of vegetation that my vision started to white out and I was feeling very faint. >_<

So I'm pretty excited about me and moms birthday, despite being kind of a grouch about it before. We're planning to:
-Go to lego land
-go to china town (3rd trip hell yeah)
-Go to dutch town
-Eat at a restaurant off that food network guys tv show
-Go to a gay bar(i'm so nervous about this…)
-Go to comic shop
-Go to that hollywood place with all the stars on the sidewalks
-SHOPPING

———–

So I've been a little mean to one of the chickies…basically when I was a kid I used to chase chickens and ducks constantly whenever I saw them. I guess some things die hard because I sometimes have the urge to chase my own chickies around the yard.

I worry about them becoming afraid of me though, so I kind pick on the one who is not friendly. I'll chase her around and then scoop her up, then I carry her tucked under my arm like a fluffle butt football. Well basically tonight I put my hand in their house to collect the water bowl and she tried to peck me. >_< At first I thought it was outcast(my favorite chicken) and was horrified that outcast would ever peck me. Then I realized “oh wait it's the one i've been harassing…lololol”

I plan to offer her some worms tomorrow and hope she forgives me. (or at least forgets since her brain is the size of a raisin or something)

After my very good day, my History Teacher emailed me asking where I was.

Here is a detailed transcript of our email conversation:

Finn: “YOU SHOULD BE IN ANCIENT HISTORY!!!!!!!!!!!!”
Me: “I came up, there was no teacher, its all good, I'm still alive, I'm down at the art rooms helping, Ms. Mcpherson knows I'm here”
Finn: “I don't care if you're alive! You should be in Ancient History!”
Me: “…Do you want me to come up??”
Finn: “No no, the productivity level here is 0, you'll get more done there.”
Me: “By the way, I was totally watching Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince this entire time… Not working…. hehehehhe”
Finn: “WHAT?!”


Yep. I'm a troll.

I guess you'd know better than I.

Wow… spent the past 2 hours watching Stuart Ashen's videos on Youtube. I guess it's the fact that he's a British “amateur” comedian who's also a psychologist… or maybe it's the fact that he's slowly going insane from all the cheap knockoffs he's been reviewing over the years…

It's funny… that cheap imitation stuff he's reviewing would have entertained me long ago when I was a gullible idiotic 5th grader… Now not so gullible (but still an idiot). Though some of my coworkers who are also PS3 “fanboys” will tell me differently because I have an XBox 360… -_-

Oh… and why I hope geeks and idiots don't figure out the Source Code of our Universe…

Speaking of fanboys reminds me of Steve jobs…

Poor guy is a sad case- He has that trademark “look” he wears for all his silly promo events, his jeans and black turtle-neck skivvies, which is getting more than a little trite at this stage, but it'd still be passable if he actually got NEW stuff that fit his wasted body. -_-
Fair enough, the poor man has had a horrible illness and in spite of it he's still powering on for the sake of all the people that believe in his company… But he's a gazillionaire! Time to get clothes that fit man. You're not the big, buff, healthy guy you once were anymore and wearing that guy's clothes makes you look even more frail and sad.

——————
And that reminds me… Just got my new Android phone: HTC Sensation. Woot!
…Don't really know how it runs in practice yet because it's not charged up fully and I want to wait till it is before I try transferring all my old stuff from my HTC Desire. I've only tried it with my American AT&T sim card in it so far. I got a pleasant surprise when signing into my Google account that most of my contacts and apps are ported over automatically. I can't wait to test it out for real, but I'm apprehensive that it won't work as well as I'm used to on my older phone.

I'm definitely an Android fellow! But even so, I helped two of my co-workers get iphones yesterday.

HTC Sense (the user interface) is pretty much the same across all versions of android. so you shouldn't notice a large difference.

That's just the thing- the Desire still runs the 1.9 interface, while the Sensation runs Sense 3. …3 is all fancy and 3D, but apart from that there are so many little differences that it's basically as different from Sense on my Desire as TouchWiz on my Samsung Tab.
And I don't really like all the differences :/

Can't tell for sure till all my stuff is on there though.

…and none of that will make any Sense (haha) what so ever to non-Android people. :)

I hate going to the bank. Like, inside it. And waiting in line and junk. You think I could go through the drive-thru on my bike? Or would I get reprimanded and/or run over?

This sounds suspiciously like a lollipop-free bank. Is it?

Because I think there's some kind of FDIC policy regarding free candy at banks just so people WILL enter the building.

If you're not getting free candy, then you should check to see if Kids are getting free candy. Because if they are, and you aren't, THAT's age discrimination!

Collected the mail today and there was a letter for me. I was like “Oh, probably a birthday card from my granddad.” Instead it turned out to be a really nice graduation/thank you card from my history teacher(because I gave him an awesome book as an end-of-year gift). : )

Wait, that means my granddad hasn't sent me anything yet. >: (
But even nothing is probably better than the pop-up card my dad's parents got me…

Stayed up until 2 in the morning last night listening to the Quackcasts I had missed. I'm really tired now, but I regret nothing!

Oh Oz and Skool, you so Cra-zeee.

Long weekend starts today, and I'm going to go look at cars. I said that I didn't need a car and that when teleportation became mainstream the car would become obsolete, but apparently, until that day, I should have a car in order to drive around and do things and be indipendent and adultly.

If I do get a car, I want it to be like Brum. (Remember Brum? Yeah, goooood times)



see? That would be amazing too have. I'd have leather driving gloves, a helmet, some goggles and a really long scarf, as well as one of those car horns that goes ARRRUUUUGGAAAAH.

If you haven't notcied, I'm a little bit crazy today.

Lack of sleep and excess of Quackcasts makes Fools go something something…

I can get free candy. At will. IF I go inside, which I hate. So i went through the drive-thru on my bike, without incident.

Well, at least you aren't having one of your “punch in the face” zen moments. I kind of worry when you gage how good your mood is on a scale determined by how much a person could get away with physically abusing you. ):


—-

It was one of those rare mornings when I woke up before all of the kids. I snuck into their bedroom, opened the window and sang them awake. I even brought them pancakes and jam and we had breakfast on their floor together.

I know these mornings are few and far between, but I hope my kids remember them. I don't want all of their memories of mom waking them up to be of me storming into the bedroom screaming "FOR THE LAST TIME GET UP!!!"

As long as your audience understands what your character is trying to express, it's worth it in my opinion…


Heh… fixed my tire pump/mini power station/car starter. Well… the tire pump portion of it. Turned out the seal on the piston broke. Luckily I had other broken tire pumps laying around. Amazing that they're all built the same way, yet the one I fixed is one beast of a tire pump…. full 35 lbs pressure in 10 minutes. Of course I had to apply a bit of wheel bearing grease to make sure the piston doesn't overheat while pushing so much air. It's also nice to have when the power is out. It'll run a standard electric fan for about 16 hours before running out of power. Or better yet… a standard TV with a PS2. Of course I probably don't need it as I've got a 300 watt power inverter in my car (which I've had for years). :)

I'm watching this show on the Discovery channel about a couple of guys who buy storage space that the renter couldn't continue to pay for. And I just realized… they look awfully similar to the two guys hunting antiques on the History Channel. What's next? A show about family in the business of reposessing stuff? And this dysfunctional family would look somewhat similar to the family of a business that gives out loans on items customers give them?!?

Never thought I'd be so happy to see my keys sitting in a pile of vomit before.

And wolves are legal in the state of Louisiana, just not within most city limits. You have to have an exotic pet permit for them, though.

He's not a wolf however, he's a purebred Siberian Husky. Granted, for his particular breed he is a very large dog. Siberian Huskys usually run around 45-60 pounds (20½-27kg.) but my dog weighed in at nearly 75 pounds. He's taller than me when he stands on his hind legs. The kids have been caught taking turns riding around on his back like he's their own little horse.

And apparently, he really enjoys my keys. :-/

For a moment there I thought it was a small dog… the kind used in those sandwich commercials… Oh, well… at least your keys are safe. I recommend buying one of those keychain attachments that tastes really REALLY bad to dogs…

I made strawberry shortcake from scratch! I picked the strawberries myself, made the syrup mush and baked the (vegan) biscuits. : B The only thing missing was some kind of whipped topping but I couldn't get to the health food store today, lol. I'll do that after work tomorrow or something… but I'm super proud of myself. I've never made it before.

It was funny though… my dog's name is Biscuit and every time I said “biscuit” in reference to my strawberry shortcake, my dog Biscuit would come in the room and start tilting his head. He's such a derp. : B

Argh… Trying, but can't sleep. I guess the hot room isn't helping. I'd sleep tonight if I wasn't working… Maybe I should give in to my temptation and try to get a furry hen from my brother in law… Naw. I've got my hands full with Mr. Turtle already…
