"Years before, when I was a kid, I owned a little Ford runabout, a Model T. And I took care of that car as a man takes care of his love--for I did love it. I was and remain a Model T guy, more comfortable with imperfection than its opposite, cherishing the ability to discern and shore up a latent weakness. I knew the car wasn't a Cadillac. Hell, what would a guy like me do with a Cad? It was a Model T, and I treated it good and it treated me good. When I sold it, after two years of trouble-free driving, it was actually in better shape than the day I bought it.
Two months later it was in the junk heap.
Less than two months after I split with Ellen, she was whoring."

This song invariably reminds me of a time when I didn't know who emo kids were, and I blissfully had no idea what instant messenger, livejournal or any other internet sites were at all. Ironically, I decided to put this crap memory here.
It reminds me of a time when I could just sit and be content. At the abandoned tracks, with Karen, above Lakeside, just listening to the drum in the background, huddled together on some weathered old bench that no one had sat on in years. Watching the lights from the roller coasters and the train shine off the lake. From here, we could make out anything we needed to. People running about the park were small. The train moved slowly around the lake that was full of reflecting lights. And the traffic on the highway was clearly audible. For some reason, Radiohead always reminds me of run down places. I can't readily think of a time when I was happier than here.

"You dyin', Simon?"
"That I am, Peter."
Lines from a movie we watched today. At least I have the Chem. Brothers/Portishead to get me through this......art.
edit: Me, Chris, Amanda and Greg just watched a great horned owl devour a small bird on the telephone pole right outside of Courtney's apartment. It took the guy like an hour.

"I think all our aim conversations offer crucial answers to life that can be explained simply by copying and pasting."
The bolt on my lower left side has begun the slow process of punching a hole in my lip, but fortunately there isn't any pain there anymore since it's all calloused and such. I can't wait to get these godforsaken things out in a week. And then shortly after, start chewing again. I'm also thoroughly impressed with the amount of attention/sympathy I got from my family and a few of my friends. Sure, it was a bad accident, but following the fact I was pretty ok. It was just incredibly annoying. A friend of mine from a ways off called me tonight on his late night/early morning walk, at the same time I was taking mine. It's odd that we both do that/procrastinate for the same reasons.
On that note, I need to stop studying for alien class. I can't learn anything more. I need to go somewhere soon too. Seattle, Anchorage, Anywhere out East. Or even just the mountains.

So I just discovered this afternoon that Souby flew down to south Mississippi last night to go forward with his idea of joining up with the relief efforts. So, yeah. Kudos to you, Andrew.
And today for the first time in 25 days I saw my tongue and ate some food. Some scrambled eggs. It was pretty awesome.

Jesse
Courtney
911
The last three calls made from my phone. These past three nights have been possibly the most ridiculous consecutive three, outside last thanksgiving break, that I've had so far. You should either feel really lucky that you didn't hang out with me, or be really mad at yourselves for missing out on all the mayhem. Goodnight to you all.

D-Link finally came through, so my internet is kind of working. I might be the only person at the school that's not at the football game. Courtney's gonna be 21 tonight, so I'm gonna be out late, against my better judgement. However, I still need to get to:
Estes, to check on the family. And the mountains.
Denver, to check on Monster and Puff-Puff.

I broke my jaw last night. So forgive me if I don't talk to/see any of you for a while. Because I have to be in Denver, recuperating, and after that my jaw's going to be wired shut. Anyways, the point is, it might be tough to get in touch with me, but that doesn't mean you should stop trying.

I talked to Drayna today. So now everyone is back. And school starts in 3 days. It has really crept up on me. Thankyou Kellen for putting me to bed last night. And if someone is feeling trashy enough I'd like to go to the Bloodhound Gang with you.

I have always had trouble recounting my dreams, but usually there are one or two that I can remember vividly. At the end of the one I had last night, me, Nick and Jesse were standing outside the Gothic tonight, waiting to go see Tegan and Sarah. Jesse starting puking in the gutter, and me and Nick laughed/tried to help him. Then Nick started puking. Then I woke up. Hopefully there won't be a correlation to this in reality, as if there hasn't already been.
The band is proving to be interesting. As are trips to the renaissance festival/samurai sword shopping. And I'm going to miss Tiff + the Denver people by the time school starts up again. [EDIT]: Party at the Cait's tonight = people/place and of course, a memory that I won't forget, ever. I'll miss the upper half of Abo's. For sure.

Quickly, Bhusan and Allison are certainly the best people at work. I am probabaly just biased to liking Nepalese people. But also, today a man of probably 60-65 came in and asked me about the At the Drive in live dvd. And it was not for his grandkid or anything, but for himself. So we talked about them and their offshoots for about 15 minutes. Anyway who cares, but it was pretty awesome.

How did we not think of watermelon masks sooner.
Unfortunately one night has three different things coinciding that I would normally always go to. Tuesday = Get Him Eat Him, Gravy Train and Head Automatica. And Val's birthday as well. July 26th has a lot of crap as well. It'll all come together, hopefully. And looking back. I should have gone to the Aquabats/Phenomonauts with probably the largest fraction of my brothers & cousins at one show, ever. There's always the future. And if I ever get bored with the amount of family I have around here, someone punch/spit water at me. Much as Tiff/Megan did last night. Denny's continues to own, we have the best crew to go there in the world. Few places will the waiters laugh along with you at 3 in the morning while Jesse snorts sugar packets, Tiff sprays mustard, Aaron yells incoherently, everyone recites pablo francisco, Val wears lemons in her teeth, and etc etc ETC.

Last night a girl made a not so flattering comment about me as I was walking by, but only because she thought my music was on. I gave her a great big smile and she made an awkwardly surprised face back at me. Turns out walking through large groups of people with your headphones in but not on can be quite amusing.
I take walks for various reasons and I took a really long one last night, and one that I've only taken once before. A good number of odd things happened along the way on it, namely a bat flying by my head. His sonar must have been broken or something because his right wing definitely slapped me in the face, and as a result I was quite surprised and yelled out FUCK at the top of my lungs.

Now all I have to look forward to are senior discounts.
I'll be at a show again, with different people at a different place and different bands. But it'll be good as always. Things are perhaps too busy. No. They definitely are. But something weird today, is that this song was playing on a commercial. That doesn't seem particularly right.
