Close Encounters
Guess who I met tonight?
YES!
Yes, from Road Rules. The embarrassing thing was that my friends told me he was from The Real World. I didn’t have cable growing up so I don’t know these things ok? I asked him if he was “Yes, from The Real World”…now I feel like an ass. Anyway, he lives up here in S.F. and he was standing outside this bar that my friends and I went to. Let me tell ya, he’s a looker.
I smell like smoke…ok that’s all.
Survival Movie Marathon
I went and saw Fahrenheit today.
When the soldiers were talking about that Drowning Pool song, Let the Bodies Hit the Floor, I was so disgusted. That moment as well as the images of the charred bodies of U.S. soldiers being beaten and strung up like pinatas really stood out in my mind.
I hope that people realize that this is a very one sided view of the story. Well, obviously….it’s Michael Moore’s view of the story. To me it was 80% of trying to make Bush and his buddies look like idiots, 10% gruesome war footage and brainwashed soldiers and the last 10% was uncovering information and links among the government and “the enemy”.
Then we went home and made pizza then went for a bike ride along the beach. Now I’m watching Flashdance and listening to fireworks.
RE: my last journal entry…I’ve decided I want to throw a Survival Movie Marathon. You know get s bunch of people together dressed up in tattered clothes and/or army fatigues, eat food out of cans, light candles, watch movies like
28 Days Later
Alien
Resident Evil
Jurassic Park
but do which if the Evil Dead movies? 1, 2, or Army?
and is Full Metal Jacket like that? I need a war survival movie.
Svefn-g-englar
Being home in bed right now makes me feel the same dead end, going nowhere, boring life nostalgia that made me leave this place. I don’t know if it’s because I’m listening to depressing music or what, but I feel it and it’s scaring me.
My dad was talking about selling my car. I think he very well should. I mean it’s just sitting around depreciating when it could be sold and the money could be sitting around earning intrest.
The back of my throat is still a bed of infection, which must make a certain someone really happy since he gets to kiss me while I’m here. Should I be concerned that it’s been like this for a week and is not getting better? Am I going to die?
Sid and Pip’s Big Day Out
yesterday was…long.
but fun! I spent a shitload of cash (well technically it was electric monetary value since no actual cash was handled).
Started the day off like this:
8:30AM -Â Â woke up late for my International Business final. Quick grooming to make sure I look as shitty as possible before I go to class and fail my test.
12:00PM – Hey, I wonder what Pip and Sid are doing…I’ll call and see.
12:30PM – Get on the M and get off at Powell to deposit a wad of cash from last night to my account (it’s not what you think. Although, if you’re thinking “You must have paid for dinner last night with your checkcard and are now depositing the money your friends gave you for their food” then I guess it is what you’re thinking.) Speed over to Walgreens to get film.
1:20PM – wait for the F which is slow as all hell because it’s a historical street car and runs slower than I walk. The fare machine is broken so everyone rides for free. This is a blessing and a curse because although I don’t have to hand over $1.25 I still have to wait while the driver explains the situation to senile tourists.
driver: “The machine is broken so just get on and you can ride for free.”
geezerette: “where do I put the money?”
geezer: “Just put the money in the machine.”
geezerette: “Oh but the machine is out of order”
geezer: “So where do we pay then?”
geezerette: “I don’t know, how do we pay you?”
GOOD LORD PEOPLE, PAY ATTENTION!!! get it? pay attention? heh.
1:40PM – meet Sid and Pip at the ticket thingie…guess what? the machine doesn’t recognize my card! Go to the ticket window…I bought tickets for TOMORROW! get the ticket validated for today’s boat. Some divine being likes me today! Did I mention we are going to Alcatraz?
2:30PM – walk around Alky, recreate some scenes from The Rock…I don’t really because I haven’t seen it in awhile…but I did say “Losers whine about their best. Winners go home and fuck the prom queen.” when talking about Alky the other day. BTW the “shower room” TOTALLY different from the one in the movie! booo.
4:15PM – Leave Alky. Decide to get FOOOOOD! We dock and dine at Bubba Gump. Pip, Sid, and I join forces and kick ass at Forrest Gump trivia, did you expect anything less?
7:40PM – Get back to the San Remo to use the potty. I passed up a piggy lighter because I didn’t have the cash…you people know what I’m talkin’ ’bout. I did however buy a Legolas bookmark. I haven’t paid for a bookmark since fourth grade but this one had Orly and a One Ring on the end of it’s tassel.
8:30PM – Take Sidular to the Apple Store. We ran amuck looking at Porm Pics untill they closed at 9.
9:25PM – Arrived at the Castro theater for the original, uncut, uncensored (as if there was anything to censor) GODZILLA!!! I laughed, I cried, I didn’t really cry. NOT THE OXYGEN DESTROYER!!!! AHH! DR. SIZAWA!!
11something – parted ways and went home…
