Nice, Kevin. You'd better hit my challenge, you punk ass, so do it again, but this time, do it better. It'd be sweet if you threw a pigbeater in there, too.

Well, today wasn't so bad. I went to go get some Burger King and found out that they wanted someone to close Sunday thru Thursday, 4:00 pm to midnight, so I applied and got the job in less time than it took to eat my meal. And kids say they can't get jobs these days! Bah! So, I'm probably going to quit at Double Tree because they don't want to work me fulltime and the job is kinda shitty. Oh well. I'm going to see if I can pick up some other work here at campus at the Cunt or at the library.
Now I'm off to go make fun of Mike and Kate's soccer team for a bit and/or bug Kevin before or after the game. Probably before so I still have time to make fun of the soccer kids.

tokyo/my first keyboard solo
Albums: selling live water (sole), mansbestfriend (sole)
the coffee's too weak, and the city's too strong,
and the people don't dance like they do in the songs.
but then again, who needs songs when you're dancing for businessmen
who don't listen to the songs, and they sure can't dance.
never learned to dance 'cause i exercise
the right to write in the time to kill.
if you're looking for a husband, i'm "heart, heart, heart,"
like an egg on a sidewalk beginning to fry, begging not to die,
but who cares if the eggs can't hatch?
we'll be quietly doomed like an unborn fetus in the microwave.
wish we were real, wish we weren't real,
'cause you can't have cattle drowning in milk,
'cause the skin isn't skin, and the skin isn't silk,
so we transform dreams. people like strip clubs,
and my pen likes the pigs 'cause they're easy to write about.
skin's barely skin and the castle's barely built;
a whole world made of guilt. one more neck for my quill,
one more face for my quilt, one less apple in queens,
and if you think you can run, don't even show me how.
don't even make me laugh, i wanna make you cry, but you don't know how
to stop running in place (stop running in place, a sick, sick world),
i'm only trying to breathe, people shouldn't even breed.
people don't like me...like me shouldn't breed...
like me shouldn't read...like me shouldn't breathe.
i can't stop shaking like the meat that eats me,
like the meat that eats us, like the meat that eats meat.
i never ever lie, and i'm always right,
i've never seen a christian, but i'm sure they exist.
when they find me, they'll probably kill me
with hearts and rainbows and afterschool specials.
chorus:
it's a sick, sick life and a sick, sick book
and a sick, sick tongue to eat the world...
when they finally find you in a tunnel with no light you must be alive...
"run, rabbit, when they catch you they'll kill you."
whether frightened or hungry, the animal is delicate
and doesn't digest; or so he says.
he tastes like water and will give you cancer, so don't eat me,
before i die with one big gulp.
hold the world so tight, 'cause us leeches need love.
it's a sick, sick me and a pretty, pretty you,
and a pretty, pretty view. it's pretty easy to suffer,
why wallow in fear (why wallow in fear) when there's nothing to think about?
we already know that there's nowhere to go, and when the mind can't rest,
it's a sick, sick us. welcome to the coma, god's in a coma;
when he wakes up, you're gone.
gone like the free world, gone like the indians,
gone like the 8-bit alien gameshow,
and he don't care. it's either pray or be prey,
kill or be killed, gods gotta be gods.
i just gotta be here 'til the game's reset or i finally escape
someone else's nightmare. planets like dreams,
i dream like a planet, and i sleep like a tv with the tv on.
and immigrants selling sex: buy a beautiful girl, buy a dumb american...
when they finally find you in a tunnel with no light you must be alive...
"run, rabbit, when they catch you they'll kill you."
Oh...God...I'm tired. Went and had a river night last night and got pretty trashed with a German for the first time since the last time I was in Munich. It was pretty fun. I was up 'til about 5:30 a.m. or so with Clara and woke up at 11 something. Good thing I didn't work today...wait, I quit Double Tree yesterday, so I don't have to work there tomorrow! Drinking night! I'm supposed to go fill out crap at BK, though, at 4 tomorrow.
On a side note: NEEL AND KAILA ARE MOVING OUT!!!!! This is the best news I've heard since February and I'm really, really happy. On the 1st we won't have to watch them mack out 24/7. I hear they think that they're going to try to exploit me for my truck services, but, since I've grown tired of their ungratefulness, I'm charging them by the mile to move their crap if they want it moved. Payment up front. I know what happened last time Kaila said she'd pay me back for something and due to her selfishness, $14 cost me $100. If they don't like it, they can try to find someone they know who has a truck like mine to help them move, but they don't know anyone well enough to try to ask them, so methinks they're shit out of luck.
Oh, it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood...

MFA wasn't too bad. My strings sucked but later on they got better. Kevin was off the wall and had awesome guiltless strings. Jere is just ridiculous and Riley had a really long string today; I think it was the longest I've seen him do.
I did have a highlight of my day, though:
Latest hit: PS Mirage! Kevin bitched at me about it, though, but I'm still stoked I hit it when Riley, Jere, and Pete couldn't.
I'm really tired. If I don't find anything to do for the night I think I'm going to hit the hey early.

"Right Where It Belongs"
Nine Inch Nails - With Teeth
See the animal in it's cage that you built
Are you sure what side you're on
Better not look him too closely in the eye
Are you sure what side of the glass you are on
See the safety of the life you have built
Everything where it belongs
Feel the hollowness inside of your heart
And it's all
Right where it belongs
[Chorus]
What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems
What if all the world you think you know
Is an elaborate dream
And if you look at your reflection
Is it all you wanted to be?
What if you could look right through the cracks
Would you find yourself
Find yourself afriad to see?
What if all the world's inside of your heart
Just creations of your own
Your devils and your gods
All the living and the dead
And you really are alone
You can live in this illusion
You can choose to believe
You keep looking but you can't find the words
Are you hiding in the dreams?
Man, work sucked last night. I had to do a bunch of bitch work. I was only supposed to fry meat, buns, do orders, and I ended up having to do an endless supply of dishes, sweep and mop the front and bathrooms, clean the broiler, chicken holder, and fry holder. It was a bunch of bunkum that I have to go to in a little bit. BAH!

kicked yesterday with riley, evan, and jere. we all did pretty terribly. all of our strings were super short and had little to no difficulty. i gave up and started trying spins.
only a few hilights:
-clean dexes on double blender
-one touch with eggbeaters after the pdx mirage [six bsos eggbeaters(the most i've ever done in one string)]
-started a string with spinning osis>torque. same run had bsos spinning clippers, bsos spinning butters, and one gyro butter.
my downtime components still need work so I kept trying whirl>dlo>drifter>torque>rpt but can only make it half way through
Didn't do much this weekend. Had to work on Friday and on my first night I had to stay an 1 hour and 45 minutes after my shift got over at midnight to close because someone didn't come in; same thing on Saturday night except I wasn't even supposed to work! Last night wasn't too bad. I got out fifteen minutes early to my surprise. Cooper finally got into town after the idiot missed his connecting flight from Denver. I was on my way to the Mansfield Library when I ran into Evan having a mini-shred at the Oval, so I kicked it with him for a bit. Hopefully I get off of work at a decent time tonight so I can kick it with Brentifer and Cooper.
Oh yeah, Kevin, you're a bitch and you suck.
I'm going to put this code here for a bit. Don't ask, you'll see.
played about four hours of footbag yesterday. the first sess was with Riley and ben. suddenly I could hit blenders about 1/3 tries on both sides. I have no idea how because i always struggle with them. had some decent strings. mostly worked downtime components. hit pdx blender on the strong side second attempt and footed flip everytime but never hit it solidly. me and riley passed sole stalls to eachother from solstalls. i think that we got about five consecutive. hit ducking sole to start a string and pixie sole stall from heel.
session two was with seth and evan. I worked downtime components again. hit drifter>drifter which i've only done twice. drifters are the bane of my existence. kept trying blender>blender. got really close the majority of times but the second blender kept heeling the bag. i alternated sides to start from and the same result all the way through. did tons of eggbeaters ss and opp. hit janiwalker.
Last night was pretty cool. I got baked with everyone that I worked with and peddled some weed, got a free angus steak burger for lunch and it was DELICIOUS! Work kinda sucked because I was supposed to clean the full broiler and I only knew of a few parts to it beforehand, so when I thought I was done, I wasn't. Then I had to do a bunch of bitch work for one of the green shirts named Chris [in the BK food chain they've got red shirts for burger flippers like me, green shirts for people inbetween, and black shirts for supervisors] like squeegie the floor while his punk ass shat the shit with Stephanie. Other than that it wasn't too bad. I got to have another angus for breakfast...makes me want another one. Thankfully I've got today off. I could work if I wanted to and if it were any other day I probably would, but I feel like footbagging today and doing absolutely nothing.
Funny sidestory. One of the people who recently moved here was tripping sack on mushrooms the other night and had a really, really bad trip and tried to drive all the way back to Idaho while still on mushrooms and crashed his car at Lolo. Luckily nobody was hurt during his stupidious [is that even a word?] drive, but he had to spend the night in jail. This is why you don't drive on hallucinogens.
Hopefully MFA tonight will be eventful and I won't suck.

Best shred day of my life
Hit Bedwetter for the first time ever. Then hit it again next attempt.
Hit Blurry Torque two times also.
Controlled longer runs. I'm still not happy about the length of them, although they are improving, and it is awesome just being able to play.
Flipside drifter coming along well.
I can barely tell my flip stepping is my flip.
Flip pixie was happening too, which is nice. It can be soo hard...
Worked ducks a little towards the end of the extremely long session (4 hours, 20 minutes) when I was tired.
Blizzards a lot too...
Gyro clippers are hard....
Jere's really good at footbag. Got contact on Pheonix>Spin Duck Butterlfy. First fearless link.
We're all really looking forward to Seattle, it's going to be awesome...
