Wednesday, July 31, 2002 so i took this test in cultural ecology, or geog 421 for those who care, and it went pretty much great. i hadn't been so nervous before a test in a long time, but i was able to write my two four-page essays in a coherent and intelligent fashion. so, to celebrate, from the moment i walked out of the classroom until right about now, i haven't thought about a single thing for more than five minutes straight. sound boring? try it. it is super relaxing. posted by johnny | 7/31/2002 12:47:00 AM Tuesday, July 30, 2002 i really hate studying. i know everyone hates studying, but i think i hate it more than most, since i hardly ever do it, and therefore am really bad at it. ah, well, at least i can stop in 23 minutes. posted by johnny | 7/30/2002 01:37:00 PM Friday, July 26, 2002 ohhhhhshit. black hawk down is on pay-per-view. i think i need to change my pants. posted by johnny | 7/26/2002 10:28:00 AM Sunday, July 21, 2002 does anyone know how i can add a link for reader comments? posted by johnny | 7/21/2002 06:24:00 PM Friday, July 19, 2002 so, about a week ago, around 12:30, i guess, i fell asleep watching tv. around 2:30, a more entertaining show came on. about that time, my roommate eric knocked on my door and whispered, "hey johnny, i was outside smoking, and a cat accidentally got inside the house." i thought to myself, what the fuck, but got up anyways. i walked downstairs, but by the time i got down there, eric had already shooed the cat out. that was when the fun began. i walked outside to see the cat, and it promptly began rolling around like an idiot on our front porch. then we began to hear drunken arguing between a guy and a girl of which the gist was: guy: "get in the car", girl: "no." they walked/drove past the front of our house at which point the girl sat down on our curb and said, "fine, i'm just going to sit here in the grass with the bugs", which i found vaguely insulting - but our landlord hasn't really cut our lawn as frequently as i would like. they argued some more - which the cat was ignoring, by the way, rolling around - until the guy says, "fine, lie in the street with the rats", and sped off, at which point i thought my car was going to bit hit for the third time while parked on our street. so the girl yells, "i hope i get raped and killed," to the departing car and then starts yelling "rape me! raaaape meeee!" to no one in particular. she starts walking back the way she came, at which point, the cat freaks out. it crouches, and runs off towards the girl, past the girl, and up a tree. the girl starts calling to the cat in the tree, and at about this time, the cast of entertainers gets bigger. some guy on a bike - it's 2:30 in the morning, mind you - rides by, stops by the girl calling to the cat, and starts beckoning himself. A different girl turns the corner and walks by, in an early-walk-of-shame kind of way. two more wasted guys, 15 yards apart, walk up behind her. the lead guy starts talking to the walking girl. the trailing guy chastises the lead guy about harassing girls walking by themselves late at night, which reminds of the time jimmy and bridget got wasted the day before graduation and started yelling at people across the street, explaining at the top of their lungs, "i'm just trying to make them feel uncomfortable! aaaaahhhhhhhh!" anyways, as those three walk by, original drunk girl and bike guy coax the cat out of the tree. bike guy rides away, walking girl and guys walk away, and drunk girl picks up "our" cat and staggers down the street with the feline in her arms. Just like that, it was all over. at least we didn't see a drunk girl drop her pants and take a shit in the bushes across the street, like i did the week before. what the hell. posted by johnny | 7/19/2002 02:42:00 PM Monday, July 15, 2002 today i had my first class of summer II and it was ok, except i was assigned to write a 500 word essay on worldcom. sounds easy, but i didn't think i would have to write a paper on the first day. eh, junior english - i should have taken it a long time ago. i also finally found where i wrote down the funny story i promised to tell. it's coming - though i'm pretty sure no one is reading this anyways. robin williams is on tv right now, and he is ass-hilarious. posted by johnny | 7/15/2002 11:09:00 PM Saturday, July 13, 2002 what can i say...i'm bored... Dear Sir, I write this note to you to tell you of me plight And at the time of writing I am not a pretty sight Me body is all black and blue, me face a deathly gray And I write this note to say why Paddy's not at work today While working on the fourteenth floor some bricks I had to clear Now to throw them down from such a height it was not a good idea The foreman wasn't very pleased, he bein' an awkward sod He said I'd have to cart them down the ladders in me hod Now clearing all these bricks by hand it was so very slow So I hoisted up a barrel and secured the rope below But in me haste to do the job I was too blind to see That a barrel full of building bricks was heavier than me So when I untied the rope the barrel fell like lead And clinging tightly to the rope I started up instead Well, I shot up like a rocket 'til to my dismay I found That halfway up I met the bloody barrel coming down Well, the barrel broke me shoulder as to the ground it sped And when I reached the top I banged the pulley with me head While I clung on tight all numb with shock from this almighty blow And the barrel spilled out half the bricks fourteen floors below Now, when these bricks had fallen from the barrel to the floor I then outweighed the barrel and so started down once more Still clinging tightly to the rope I sped towards the ground And I landed on the broken bricks that were all scattered round Well, I laid there groaning on the ground I thought I'd passed the worst When the barrel hit the pulley wheel and then the bottom burst Well, a shower of bricks rained down on me, I hadn't got a hope As I lay there moaning on the ground, I let go the bloody rope The barrel then being heavier it started down once more And landed right across me as I lay upon the floor Well it broke three ribs and my left arm and I can only say That I hope you'll understand why Paddy's not at work today posted by johnny | 7/13/2002 07:46:00 PM i am, apparently, a big loser. so far my weekend has consisted of ripping my entire collection of cds to mp3, taping movies off pay-per-view, and cleaning my room. i got so bored i went out shopping with my roommates for no real reason, and came back with a wall clock, a nintendo controller which eric will pay me back for, and some kfc. you can start calling me names now. but i have a great story to tell, when i get a chance i'll write it all down. posted by johnny | 7/13/2002 04:50:00 PM Friday, July 12, 2002 so i finally broke down and decided i would post on blogspot instead of my own site, since i apparently know nothing about computers. so there's ads. boo. posted by johnny | 7/12/2002 11:54:00 PM |
