You know, my dad once told me that he never really worried about me standing in a dark alley selling drugs… he worried about me standing in a dark alley selling pirated software. Needless to say, I laughed my arse off this morning when I read this comic.

Tonight, I am going to Spiral, and the new GothScape. Here’s the info:

First off, there aren’t that many pretentious goths in the Lansing, MI area. There just aren’t. Secondly, the first and last DJ names are retarded. They’ve probably got ferrets on leashes and are German nihlists. And how in the WORLD can you take a night with a regular showing of FIVE TO TEN PEOPLE and request a certain type of clothing, when people are ALREADY showing up in that sort of stuff ANYWAY?!

Ok, now with the rant, done, I’m going to it to check it out. So far, I’ve wrangled a few Green Spiral peoples, as well as , , and some friends from back in the day. I’m hoping the music was as good as last Tuesday’s was, because the pretention level on the flyer is f’amazing.

Undecided as to my inebriation level tonight.

Addendum: is rumored to be attending as well. :)

Randomness for sure. The In Perpetual Motion show was a blast last night, I had a great time. I ended up crashing on the love seat (which didn’t earn many protests from my knee, surprisingly enough) while there were still like three or four people here, and was DJ’ing. Unbeknownst to me, Leah, the infamous sexy voice of IPM, shook her breasts about an inch and a half to two inches from my face. I always sleep through the best stuff. Not sure how happy I am about the inebriation level I was at, but I had a good time nonetheless.

Beh. Pining blows.

is back from Las Vegas, I really need to hang out with him, like the old days. We haven’t done that in a while… the trip from Lansing to drop him off in his hometown was the closest we’ve been to that kind of discussion, and that was pretty much me asking how things were going in his life.

Oh, and my car is dead, until I can get it into the shop. No coolant into the engine. But, luckily enough, my State tax return check came in yesterday, so I’m hoping for the Federal one on Monday. They were both tele-filed, so they should both be lickety-split.

Did I mention that pining sucks?

Hrm. Maybe I should be a teacher.

Much accomplished yesterday. Ok, let’s make a list for today:

• Vacuum room.
• Send out 3 more resumes.
• Pay rent.
• Begin scanning and uploading for online photo album.

So, I almost hit other cars twice last night in the snow. So very, very slippery. I’ve got the brake system of my current car figured out now… and the strangeness of front wheel drive in winter. Heh. I do have to say that it rocks… rear-wheel drive may have been cool, but I was able to get out of my parking lot without having to get a shovel this morning. Way cool. I left a pattern of rust and dirt on the snow behind me when I backed up and it rubbed against the underside of my car. Nifty! Also, while brushing off my car, my hair was still wet, so my ponytail froze solid. Hee hee.

45 minutes till my lunch break, and my stomach is growling. Thank goodness for the pseudo-food and nectar of the gods, Mountain Dew.

I dislike large corporations. That’s why I try to shop at independant stores if I can.

You’d not beleive how much it irks me that both TSR and Hasbro are sub-companies of Microsoft.

And now, AOL Time Warner is blocking Trillian users from using their network. They’re peeved because Trillian beat out their software on C|Net’s review. Trillian rated as the number one instant messaging client, period. So, two days later, Trillian can no longer connect to AIM’s network. There was a fix, and a new version. Whoops, fix doesn’t work any more. Open warfare? I wonder how long they’ll take to start doing similar things with ICQ, since they’re both AOL products. Oh, lookee, we don’t have to see your ads. And the software is free. They take donations, but they don’t require them. And guess what! Users can help program plug-ins for new messaging client software as it comes up!

Good god damn. People on the Trillian forums have started boycotting anything to do with AOL Time Warner altogether. Ranging even to TV shows and movies.

We appear to be quite the fiends for being connected. >:)
