you should write them after you've gotten done writing, because it's either an idea or a summary of what you wrote. well, maybe if your posts are planned out then it'd be fine to write it first, but in my case, I ramble and then summarize. anyways...
So this morning I got a call from RnR Real Estate saying that I wasn't getting my security deposit back. I'm going to have to call and bitch. The place I lived at turned into a pig stye but it wasn't my doing and I'm not going to pay for it. After that call, the Sears Repair Guy stopped in and told us nothing was wrong with mum's treadmill. Yay for that. Played some Mario, but I always die in the 8th level (in the castle).
Living at home's given me a lot more free time for thought. I like that, a lot. I just like to be able to think, or go for a walk to get away from everybody. The City keeps you busy all the time, with no time to reflect. Because, when you finally do have time to yourself, it's already spoken for by someone or something that you have to do.
I'm really digging this music that I've been listening to since last night. It's industrial/techno/gothic. I don't think I could ever go goth. I tried it once, but it fell through. I'm just too bright looking I think -- blue eyes and blonde hair, and an olive complexion. Doesn't work for me. Maybe if I was dark haired and paler...
I don't know why the urge to go goth or punk or alt hits me at this time of year. Maybe it's because it fits the season more. You know? It's darker and more sedated. The world is coming down and I want to match? Maybe it's just that I wanna stick out more or be somebody different and that I think dressing the part will help. I'm not sure. I have a problem with identity crises. I wish I could be happy with who I am and not feel like I have to fit into a mold.
I just got done reading schober's blog. I can honestly say he has the best blog I've seen. His blog entries are thought-out and well-written. They're quality reading, unlike the drivel that spews forth from my hands at the keyboard. I dunno, he sets a higher standard.
Something that I read in his blog has made me think though... You don't like America? Then leave! If America pisses you off that much, then stop using the liberties it provides for you. Don't hate the system that gives you the very liberty that allows you to hate the system. (source)
Now I have to disagree with Schober on this. It would be unpatriotic to accept a government or system that isn't up to what America should be. If we were all drones and went along with whatever government America had, that would be the worst thing for us. America isn't a government. America is an ideal. Benjamin Franklin and some of the nations greatest patriots have said themselves that we should never settle for a sub-par government. Leaving won't help. Bitching won't help either though -- we can't just sit around and complain about America. You need to get out there and vote, and fight for whatever causes you believe are right.
That wasn't meant as a shot at Schober or his opinion (which I respect)... Just my thoughts on it.

Dial-up is pissing me off. I hate waiting for stuff. I haven't been on dial-up for over a year. It's bad.

Friday night we're doing D&D. Angela is probably coming. I'm not so sure this weekend will work out great though. Friday night is homecoming, bonfire, and D&D. Then Sat I work and we wanna do our own bonfire. *shrug* I'll talk to her about it and see if she wants to come up still.
I can't wait to play D&D. We haven't done it for so long! And it's one of my FAVORITE things in the world to do! I want to run a Ravenloft game though. Josh is going to run a regular game and I want to run a Ravenloft one. Maybe make a game night. It'll be cool once we get our place in Madison -- we can just play D&D any time we want. We could have friends crash there and just chill. It'll be fun
I guess that's it for now... It's a bit more like The Great American Novel than that last paltry post.
