An academic update
"Hi Gill I didnt go to work today because I started to feel really sick and was puking and crying at the same time.I think that i havent felt this shitty since I went to the emergency room with kidney stones."
"yeah ok so you want to come over and help me move more stuff ?"
"Hi Mat im not feeling so good today. think im going to try and take it easy tonight my body is malfunctioning."
Lady Gaga comes on he procedes to grab me, pick me up and ram me into a wall head first and drop my limp body.and keeps dancing.
"Hey Nikki. Im not feeling well maybe we should go so i could get some more medication at home."
(blank stare)
"give me the pepper".
30 minutes later...
"did yo say something about wanting to leave?"
------
Its really good to know that your friends care about you and will be there for you when you need their help.
really cant stay mad when i reflect on my pool of asshole moments though.
im working on it!
----------
Something feels like it is changing. it is not stabilizing though. not getting enough hours at the jobs. this monetary instability might have something to do with it. I am gaining stimulation through classes though which hasnt happened in a while Im turning my brain back on finally. Last quarter there was a zombie-like approach to what i was filtering through the processor. It takes me out of the social realm and allows me to bask in ideas, detach from reality.
existing in academic reality. i really prefer it to the prior.

Winter Brake
Forecast:
fucking cold all the fucking time w. a chance of snow at any moment.
I am thankful for the invention of the electric fireplace.
I really, really dont like winter. Being cool all the time is really straining.
My plan is to do some reading but i cannot access the library until I pay the 43.00 fine on my card and then get a new card as mine was stolen/lost.
Winter destinations:
SLC
Las Vegas
Little Ceasers w. James

Geoduck (gooeyduck) vs. Jellycat
Interview with the Vampire is the both the start and end of anything concerning vampires being cool or entertaining.
Addendum: Blade
At owijimaya today:

touched geoduck and couldnt stop
Jakob bought an industrial 20lb. bag of imperial jasmine rice.

To shadow another is to give him, in fact, a double life, a parallel existence. Any commonplace existence can be transfigured (without one's knowledge), any exceptional existence can be made commonplace. It is this effect of doubling that makes the object surreal in its banality and weaves around it the strange (eventually dangerous?) web of seduction

HARVEST
It is Friday night- which means im working @ the hostel.
Which means im bored surfing the net
which means its time to blog
which means----....
Thanksgiving
Just me and Jakob @ the house this weekend.
Jakob looked up Thanksgiving on WIKI- as it is a holiday foreign to him. I dont really know anything about thanksgiving either. I learned it is a harvest celebration. Which makes sense becuse the natives love to give thanks to nature for shit like a good harvest or a fat turkey or not having venerial disease.
Which means we got supppper drunk on Wednesday
Shuffleboard @ the cantebury which was preceded by the drinking of a variety of beverages.
Me and Will are a really great team except when we have to play other people who are actually good at the game so then things get serious and its hard to be serious about bar sports. One guy wouldnt let the 4 of us play only if we challenged him and won. I dont think that is fair because if i am going to spend my 2QAURTERs then I want to play WHO I WANT TO PLAY WITH not play someonw who I know will win no matter what. if he wants people to challenge him he really should be putting the quarters in. Or maybe this isnt how it works. What do I know about aracade etiquette. Surely there is a forum for it somewhere on the WWW.
wokeup thursday hungover. went for a walk in the rain to madrona. napped then
FOOD TIME!
Thank you Jackie for the delicious and labourious meal you prepared for me.
I drank lots of sangria. I felt a bit drunk I asked christina how many glasses before I should expect to be drunk- her reply
"3 wine bongs will usually do the job"
Ah how I miss dorm life with christina. I really dont think my binge drinking is up to the same level as it was back then.
Then went over to see DE-BOIZ
Hayden was pretty much in a coma
Cael was eating handfull's of turkey
Will eating some kind of biscuit sandwich with cranberry sauce and cheese
Matt obviously the most drunk out of everyone disapearing every 10 minutes and returning increasingly intoxicated each time
And things were only getting better when rob took the remainder of the cranberry sauce (can shape still visible) and proceded to eat it without using utensils and mostly just mouth.
This also led to a whip cream fight between me rob and will.
This was fun times minus- smelling like cream the rest of the night which seems delicious- but really isnt after a few hours. and I also got cream in my phone and now it does not work nearly as well.
Need a new phone soon anyways so ill just pee on it sometime soon or something.

DAD + INTERNET = <3
Due to the steep decline of our economy my dad has been on unemployment on and off a couple times over the past year. For the first time in perhaps 15 years my dad has had the opportunity to do what every lazy asshole in the US has been doing for the past 15 years- and that is learning the ins and out + & - of the computer world. Dad had some catching up to do. Up to now he was wholly disconnected with the cyber realm and basically from reality in general. but alas YOUTUBE GOOGLE! DAD has entered a new world. information is now readily available. so now he needs (real) human interaction perhaps even less than before which is saying a lot.
First he was telling me links of youtube videos I should watch ie- Eric Bourdon, rolling stones, Eric Clapton etc etc.
Now we enter into the second quarter of unemployment- moms bringing home the bacon and dad is musing over the wonders of websites that detail politics in the worst way: MICHAEL MOORE documentaries. even better than real information!
Last night at like 11 pm my mom calls. She really picks the best times to call so I have to sober up and talk to her.
-Hi mom I got off work early- just making food. blah blah.
-oh okay today we had the neighbors over for dinner and your dad talked to them about his thoughts on the michael moore documentaries he found on youtube.
i dont know how this works out given my dads lean towards the republican party. now he is drunk and watching youtube videos. I hear him yell something from the other room and my mom hands him the phone.
We talked about London and art and that transitioned to my dad talking about a contemporary pop- dance performance that he found online. apparently its really interesting new thing (probably happened 50 years ago) but the point is that London has great things going on like this performance art. Thanks dad i could not have imagined that given this I spent six months there this year.
I am trying to tell my dad that perhaps we can compare our ten top fav websites another time- when im not climbing into the crossfade. minus the latter section of that clause. and then my mom comes back takes the phone, luckily and says his time is up.
blows my mind how people can live together for so long and have a functional relationship. Is it about sacrifices or just giving in and realizing that you love someone whose favorite pastime is getting drunk and watching propaganda on the WWW ? further- I am a product of their co-existence. at work blogging. exactly.
PAVEMENT AT SASQUATCH !@@##$$%% STEPHEN MALKMUS IS MY INDIE DAD ive decided. HYPOTHETICALLY If i had a dad in the music world it would be MALKMUS FO SHO.
