    Global Warming, Hmm?
    I didn't bitch about it at the time, but I reserve the right to bitch on my own schedule, and lack of bitching now is no indication of future performance. So...

    It snowed way too gat-damm much this year!!!

    In better news, my roommate got Rock Band 2 for our Xbox, and so I have a new alterna-life (as if I need yet more fantasy existences!) as a drummer. *throws the horns*

    I had forgotten about this. Been a while! They took down most of the old articles from Xbox.com, but some of them are still up on the Australian site.

    Article 2

    I need to play more games.

    What's Up Wit hThat?

    I should write a column. I'd call it "What's Up With That?" In it, I would mention something I find personally irritating, and then ask "What's Up With That?"

    This week's installment has to do with the bright side of me sucking so mightily at writing in my journal. The fact that I have only a handful of entries to show for years of investment in this thing is a testament to my incredible reserve of apathy, which in some circles is considered quite fashionable. But because I have so few entries, I am easily able to look back and notice this entry from February 2003, in which I note with some excitement:

    Coming Soon: The Borgias
    Starring: Ewan McGregor, Christina Ricci, Antonio Banderas, Jean Reno, John Malkovich.


    Hey. Three years is a long time. I want this movie.

    And here is where I utterly fail to deliver on my thesis statement, and prove my English teachers were totally right in giving me crap grades in High School, because I'm not going to say "What's Up With That?" At this point I instead must say, "WTF?" And cry.

    I weep for the death of this film. I want to bury a film canister in the park in effigy. Or maybe an Obi Wan doll.

    Where to start?

    Started classes again. Working part time at (never gonna believe this) UPS. I got the hookup through a friend of mine and applied in July. Went in for an interview the first week of August and started a week later. I had to do 20 hours of driver training (which I could do because it was still summer), which was not too boring, and some of it was actually cool. So now I got me an official pair of brown shorts and damn I make 'em look good ;-)

    I get 20 hours which includes one evening a week and BOTH weekend days, so that sucks, but I have my classes stacked on M-W-Fr, so I do have T-Th as "free" days. I have homework and stuff to do, but no schedule to stick to those days, which is the saving grace. It pays a lot better than other jobs I've had and it has some benefits too, which is awesome.

    In other news, if everything stays non-fucked-up for a little while I will actually get my AA at the end of Winter quarter. Imagine THAT.

    Freaky

    I just got a potentially cool or potentially freaky email. I've been playing the MAtrix MMO game off and on since late last year. I kinda stopped around October because I had a lot of school stuff to do and I didn't have any time, but I played over Christmas a little and I've been more into it lately because I got a new (for me) computer from my parents in January and because it's a lot better and more fun now than when things didn't work as well earlier in the beta.

    So, I got an email that basically said "I've been watching you in The Matrix. Meet me at such and so coordinates" and gives a time (tomorrow) and coordinates and it's signed "M". I sign my emails "M" sometimes so that was a little strange, but hey, it's not my personal private letter, so I guess I can't sue, but it made me look twice. The return address is from an address at Monolith (lith.com) but that sort of thing can be faked.

    So did everyone get an email like this, and it's a marketing thing for the game? And if so, what's going to happen? Or am I being stalked by a crazed virtual killer who wants to kidnap my avatar Bundy-style?

    WTF?

    I made this

    I made this new LJ icon, but I'm not sure I'm happy with her. I might have to remake her again. As most of you reading this know, I wear my hair a lot of different ways.



    And then there's the fact that I tried to make her look like me, but she looks really pissed off. Do I always look pissed off?

    Hmmm.

    Arg! Christmas Cheer!
    It's so hard to be a good goth at Christmastime.

    The folks who made The Nightmare Before Christmas should be sainted. It's like the one little piece of Christmas that's made for us :-)

    Holy crap, I didn't make an entry all spring or summer, and now it's raining again.

    Changes
    I'm taking classes now, which I think is a positive move. I still don't know what I really want to do "when I grow up" because all the things I really love to do and think are important to me spiritually don't pay anything. Honestly I like to have stuff. Consumer whore, that's me.

    I got a new place with another roommate, who I don't know real well yet but we get along pretty good. Nothing was wrong with the other place, but it was just temporary and I'm thankful for the fact I had a place to stay while I was looking for this place. I haven't been out much lately because I really don't want to fuck up my classes. I'm getting some student aid and it means I have to get non-shitty grades.

    Last time I made a journal entry it was snowing. Now it's raining, and just Seattle in Winter to an extreme. Cold, gloomy. Big boots. Leather coat.

    Dammit I just scratched my arm and I'm bleeding. It was just an itch! My skin is so fucking thin. I think I have a condition or something. Maybe I'll bleed on the keyboard. That'd be a conversation piece.

    Boot time
    That's snow on the ground out there.

    Time for the combat boots.

    Haven't written here in a while. A lot happened. I'm not living at home any more. I have a place in the District now. I have a roommate but she doesn't have a LJ and you don't know her. It's just temporary anyway.

    Yeah. That's all.

    Why my journal sucks
    I think part of the reason my journal sucks is because i don't get to it often enough. I just haven't connected with the lj community. So I think I'll try randomly adding some of the people from the last TrustFlow meme to my friends list to make it more interesting reading, in a oddly sick voyeuristic sort of way.

    My rationale is: What the Fuck.

    I suck
    I am the very worst livejournal user ever. SO much has happened since my last entry, I'm not gona bother trying to write it all down. Let's just ster fresh, okay?

    Glad you're good with that.

    Of course, if you have time to read, you should check out this fucking kick ass online comic instead of my stupid LJ.

    Tickle Me Moira
    This gives me a tickle in all the right places:

    Coming Soon: The Borgias
    Plot Summary: The historical drama, set in the 15th century, follows the corrupt Borgia family, which includes siblings Lucretia and Cesare and their father, Roderigo, who went on to become Pope Alexander VI and ran the 16th century Vatican as a crime syndicate.
    Starring: Ewan McGregor, Christina Ricci, Antonio Banderas, Jean Reno, John Malkovich.

    That's like the "Who's Who of Who Makes Me Hot." (except maybe Banderas, but he's pretty good with a sword and I'd love to see Zorro vs Obi-Wan ;)

    In other Anticipatory News, 3 months till The Matrix Reloaded. Forget Neo - Trinity Rocks.

    Where ya been?
    Forgive me Livejournal, for I have sinned. It's been three months since my last confession.

    First, I did not have a good Holiday Season. A few nice nights here and there with friends, but also a lot of fights with Them. Spade moved to Austin to take a job with a computer game company, which is cool for him, but i miss him a lot. Hardman and I broke up. Something to do with me being a psychotic bitch (I wasn't really listening). I don't miss him.
