Jumping ship
Yeah so I've sort of been won over by the whole myspace thing...so if anyone is over there give a shout. For the most part this space will remain empty, I just feel like I lack the time to blog really. So I'll still pop in now and again to see how you all are doing, and maybe once life changes some for me I'll begin posting again. That is all for now...you may resume your daily rountines... | | Monday, December 26th, 2005 | | 11:41 am |
Yay Christmas!
Well I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas day, and is now neck deep in the glory of the post holiday season. I'm personally happy I got out of work by being in another state. Though my oddessy getting here was interesting...lets just say when was the last time anyone associated JFK with fog. Despite that the Woolley clan gathered for a nice family Christmas (the first one with full attendance in about four years). Much food, dirnk, and merriment was had, and I feel ready to say NYC will be lucky if I don't decide to stay and never return. Fog...transit strikes...angry XBox customers, vs Sun...palm trees...and the fact I own land I could live in a little box on. It would be a grand box too...at least until I forage for supplies to build a hut, I mean they can build nice little luxury shelters out of airplane bits on lost, I could put together a nice little shack of my own with sand and driftwood. I'm sure the Ms will be down to collect me soon. I get to pick her up from the airport today, and not the good airport, the bad one, the one that makes people shudder when you say the name. The it's off to dinner in Delray, and back up to Juno and then planning the sand/wood shack of luxury. You think I'm kidding...I was ready to stay last time I visited...that was before walking to work, up hill, both ways, with snow, hail, and fire raining down, a cold, missing a leg, with woulves, tigers, and ferrets chasing me because there was no transit. Ok...I should go and face the..m..ma...m..mall...... Current Mood: bouncy | | Wednesday, November 30th, 2005 | | 11:55 am |
Like the sign says  My dellusions of having the free time and sanity to post or otherwise carry on beyond primative grunts and nods while eating, have for the moment been squashed. Donations of cookies and beer (particularly beer with Ralph Steadman artwork on it www.flyingdogales.com) are being accepted. Current Mood: exhausted | | Thursday, November 10th, 2005 | | 11:51 am |
Ouch...must learn sarcasm is not always good... Cold Hearted You're 0% human! | You don't really care about your fellow humans...and you DEFINATELY don't care a flying rat's behind about animals. I would say that something in your childhood probably caused you to be this way...but I'm not a shrink, so I let you figure out what went wrong. | | My test tracked 1 variable How you compared to other people your age and gender: | You scored higher than 0% on humanitypoints |
| I wasn't even trying to fail....umm go me?? I think I had the same problem in Knights of the Old Republic though...I'd try and be a nice good happy people loving Jedi...but then the sarcastic answer like "I wonder what soup they'll serve" comes up, and honestly I can't resist it, it's there, and ya know I do wonder what soup they'll serve. Doesn't mean I'm cold hearted, I'm just a really really bad test taker. Soooooo....uhhhhh....how bout those democrats? Looks like they get to go to the super bowl and win the stanley cup or something...yeah...that worked as a change of subject. Ya know I'm just going to get back in bed and pretend this quiz never happened......

Last quarter century
Well...it's finally happened. 25...wow...I can like rent cars and stuff...yay!? It's funny how 12 minutes in, I get reflective. Long past are the days of cupcakes in class, and parties at the bowling ally/roller rink. More then New Years, the annual marker of age seems like a constant reminder of many things, and more of a point to look back on things. How not to long ago I'm sure I had different perceptions about the way things were SO going to be. It's sort of like the old exhibits at Epcot, you know the ones, they said things like in 2010 we'll have 15 moon colonies. I mean of course, we essentially went there with a pocket calculator and a tin can, what's to stop us with super Pentium computers and the SUVs? I'm not sure I really had any preconceived notions on what 25 would be. It really is just a number. I suppose 6 months ago I figured I would be in some comfy little beachy house in Ft. Worth going back to classes in FL. That sort of kind of never happened. Which no offense to those of you down there, is kind of a dream I'll put off until God decides to stop taking pot shots at it. Then 6 months before that would have been the hangover to end all hangovers on my last B-Day after my election night party, when me and Bacardi 151 got better acquainted with each red state. Before that...I dunno...hmmmm I do remember being a kid though, NJ was great this time of year..I mean for NJ. First it was my dad's B-day on 10/24, then Halloween, then my B-Day, then all those other Nov holidays, Thanksgiving, then wham X-mas. It's no wonder I learned to disapprove of January and February. Such uneventful months. The leaves, the Norman Rockwell creepiness that was H-Field, the constant cakes, candies, pies, and other baked goods. Visits from my sister back from Duke. Good times. Yet somewhere that changed, and it wasn't about presents or getting my yellow cake with chocolate frosting, and it became reflective. Maybe it does for everyone. I miss being a kid though. I miss opening big boxes with some new G.I. Joe or Mirco Machines playset. I miss having 10 friends spend the night and sitting up all night playing Genesis or SNES. I miss the stressless joy, the excitement of sending out silly invitations. Of balloons. I miss being a kid. A crisis I find more and more people around me do, and yet it is the more grown up seeming ones that do more then the ones who still are kids. Just growing up I suppose, though I will always insist on yellow cake with chocolate frosting. Balloons are not necessary, and can now be replaced with beer. Sleep overs...well...not really enough beds and I'm sure if some of you curled up in my bed, ms. Z would not be too pleased. Mirco Machines, G.I. Joes, etc, I'll leave those to I Love the 80's, and take a new monitor and become a rockin doctor in Trauma Center on DS. Though I wouldn't mind some Norman Rockwellness in this big city, I was never really an urbanite anyways. Mostly I look forward to a day off, one where I can forget the seemingly endless array of problems that wait outside my doorstep, and goof off and indulge in the fun of browsing for cheap car rentals :D Perhaps I will even post my delayed review of Halloween '05...though I will just say, ladies...SLUT is not a costume...now that that is said, I am off to find me a 12:45 birthday cookie and maybe sleeps...maybe...

A WTF evening and more great moments in box art
So I'm sitting home last night, enjoying my bottle Otokoyama. I'm a pretty happy camper since I rarely if ever get a chance to just kick back and chat with people online anymore. What was once the staple of my life through much of HS has now become a rarity. So I'm sitting here, typity typing away, catching up with people who I haven't heard from in something in the ballpark of a million years. Things are groovy. Though the decision to contact an ex I haven't really spoken to sriously in a while, left me feeling a little spooked out since she pointed out it was 10 years to the day we first kissed. Sort of a WTF how does one do that and not know they are sort of thing...or perhaps it was my heightened sake powers of perception that told me to..anyway I digress. So here I am, happy as a bunny bent on world domination and out of the blue I get an IM from a total stranger. Now 3/4 the bottle gone I decide hey, what's the worst that can happen? I mean at least it didn't ask if I needed to refinace my home while watching girl on ferret sex. So we chat, nice person, we start talking about Poe, appropriate for the season I suppose, and then boom...they bolt. I mean seriously, was this some kind of ruse? Person A: Oh man lets go on AIM and talk about Poe with random people! Person B: Yeah, that's fucking awsome, and then when we are we'll run off and leave them wondering what person IMs you to talk about Poe at 2 am, then runs off mid conversation Person A: Yeah then we'll plant evidence on Woodchucks to keep the feds off our supreme lord and masters the Bunnies! Perhaps it's the fact I will spend the better part of my day hear why X-Box is the Roxxorz or that Socom 3 is the greatest game since ever and eternity, that I rather enjoy my brief litterary discussion, and though in soberness I prolly would have ignored it, I was pretty impressed at how I can BS through that shit with a bottle Sake down and it being late. I suppose some of those things you leard in high school do stick with you. Though I'm still not sure if spanish will...damn preterat tense....

Back on the old horse again
I feel like I should be dusting something off...like ridding the room of cyber cobwebs. Are there cyber cobwebs? Are there even cyber spiders?!? Though I suppose there is other option of tapping the mic and seeing who is out there...perhaps I've successfully frightened off my readership and I can prance about Yukari style singing "la la la la la la" Only I'm a guy...and not a Japanese HS teacher. Hmmm...perhaps we should remedy some of that... So where to start what to say...I don't think I've updated since before EpIII which is obviously yesterday's news, but I will say it wasn't worth being on line for 8 hours, progressively crushed by fatter and fatter people to see it at 12:01am. So that leaves what? May, June, July, August, September? What happened again? Oh I know I could write this like one of those "what I did for my summer vacation" essays you had in elementary school or college depending how hung over/lazy your professor was on the first day. Though honestly little happened. No exotic trips to far off places, unless you consider moving in with the misses an exotic trip. ( If the revelation of no exotic travel saddens you turn back now ) Current Mood: chipperCurrent Music: Beck OST | | Thursday, October 13th, 2005 | | 1:04 am |
