Back again...

All right... back again and no time to lose. Should have a quick post to captue the week I was away and recap of the beginning of the semester. Bit excited... and a bit of the 'ugh.. again' 
Later

Ok... Shitty day. Shitty car rental. And as you can see, shitty room in georgia. As tiring as camp was, i miss my kids already. Seriously though. They made me laugh all the time. Here's hoping for a better tomorrow.

Ok so every once in a while, camp week will have one of those days where it's cloudy and everyone campers and counselors feel relatively crappy. Today is one of those days. I mean yesterday was one of the best days of my life. We had a monster waterslide. It was beyond awesome. But then the following day came. It's like coming of a tremendous high. It

Here is the banner that was made and finished in one night. We are the the fresh princes and we won the banner contest! More pictures to come later for the luau.

The buddy board incident. Today, some campers didn't adhere to the buddy board rules. The lifeguards didn't take to nicely to that. Neither did the campers who were punished because of that. Then later in the night we had the boat ceremony which is always very emotionally charged. I have the night off. I think we are headed to wal-mart. Oh the joys of hope new jersey!

I have arrived at camp! As you can see it is a beautiful day. The kids are having fun and now it is time to eat. A beautiful pic of lake hope! More later.

Last Minute Details

So out of all the things I had to do today, my iPod decides to start acting up. Two week vacation and no music can make me lose my breath. So I got a brand new one free of charge. Gotta love extended warranty! Also visited my brother and aunt for the first time in ages. So now... I should be ready.

Freeezing!!!!!*

Explain how we've had heat waves for three days in a ROW, and now its 49 degrees? Somehow, I'm not sick... not yet.
Moving along... parents decided to take a mini vacation before their vacation. It's nice. They deserve it. They should really do it more often and relax more.
J9's block party is today and Camp is this Sunday. I should really get to crackin' but alas when that inspirational muse clobbers you in the head, you have no choice but to hit the ground running. 
My plans are to have a volume completed and ready to print within a year. Mark my blog words.
Gotta catch some sleep... eventhough the drowsiness hasn't really settled in yet

The Razor

So there it is, the new phone. I'm not necessarily sure if I'm happy with it, I mean it has all these features and I love technology but it maybe a bit too thin. Easier to break. Easier to lose. Much cheaper than I thought, but with cost efficiency comes an upgrade. Always a catch.

So one more week left. Hopefully I'll be able to do all that I had to do before I leave. Still waiting for my case from online. Still waiting for my car to be fixed. It's all about the waiting. Well work just started.
So I wait. Hopefully I'll be able to get some reading and writing done. Hopefully. Maybe a dance lesson, but I don't know.

Singles Auction*

Justin's fundraiser last Saturday was fantastic. It was a Singles Auction which was hosted by the lovely Michelle. Not all went as planned but then again what doesn't. As promised... pictures!!!

It's a nice place in Brooklyn I like going to. And we raised nearly $3000! Ah the things we do for kids, and this is the person responsible.

He looks thrilled.

Long night. Rough night. Back still hurts. Thanks Doob. Weekend complete. Here comes work tomorrow. Huzzah!

Apparently i'm back with a new phone, so mobile blogging should be back and kicking

Webmaster*

Late night posting here.

Earlier today, I attended the Serpentine Magazine meeting and was elected the webmaster for the Serpentine Blog page that is currently in the works. I'm very excited, this gives me an oppurtunity to put good use to perhaps many hours sitting in front of a computer screen. I met a lot of cool people, some very artistic... and some VERY loud. Some both.

All in all, I must say I look forward to seeing the progress of the magazine working with a a group of very talented people.

With that, I leave you with a parody of a popular quote:

"Have you ever been around the web?"
"Psh... don't you be tellin' me about the web. I'm the web-fu*kin'-master."
"You surf alot?"
"Shyt yeah! Got my technique down and everythin'. I don't be messin' around or nothin'"
".... Would you ever watch porn with a guy?"
".... Fu*k you."

Waiting

People have a funny way of showing that they'll be there for you. People also have a funny way of twisting things when you not there for them. The bottom line is I'm pick of waiting on people. Period. I hate waiting on people. I hate waiting for food. I hate making people wait. I guess I would've never made a good waiter...

Lies

Horoscopes lie people, just thought I'd let you all know that.

Complicated Design

There are some people in your life who makes you feel as though they are a hinderance. Whether they intentionally mean to do so or not, it would seem as nothing more than an intricate obstacle inter woven in life's seemingly beautiful yet complicated design. Thought i would share that with you today.

Technical Difficulties

There seems to be an issue as of late with my mobile account with Blogger. Pictures won't post and messages won't reach it's destination. A tech problem or mystery that has to be solved. (Or perhaps my phone just plain sucks ass!)

Moving right along. Trivia was late Sunday night. Lots of food, drinks and ridiculously hard questions that go unsolved until the round's very end. Trivia, trivia... by definition means insignificant or inessential matters; trifles. But see these questions are all that matters. Each question no matter how inane and insignificant they might be must be answered correctly in order to get full points and win respect and the prize money. Trivia, by definition means insignificant but by definition we got slaughtered.

How to End a Conversation*

George Carlin was here tonight. He was old, unrehearsed, and not funny. He read off 3 jokes that he found on the internet, one of which i had heard the night before from my friend Courtney the Cab Driver (see previous post). It would seem that the life of a comic seems to trade off laughs for common sense or leveling with the audience that their lives aren't interesting anymore (i.e. Dave Chappelle's last stand up routine).
All Carlin seemed to really talk about was some sense and sensibility. For example, when a conversation is over. When you hang around for a tad too long and spill way too much information. I suppose I learned this tonight the hard way, then again there is only the hard way as Buffy would say. Tonight I saw many people from my past and it seemed to be a series of humps on an emotional rollercoaster for me. I don't get people and people don't get me and that's fine I guess. The more time passes the less i seem to care. I don't think this can be stopped.
Night.... or morning...

COURTNEY!!!!

OMG, I just had the best ride home ever. I got the famous Courtney the Cab Driver! Fuck yeah! For those who don't know, this story dates back a bit. I went to see a late night movie with an acquaintance and soon after, called for car service. Here comes this guy... big, bald, goatee and loud. We got in most unwillingly. We tried to ignore the over-bearing aura of his bad-ass-ness but then the driver spoke.

"What do you guys wanna listen to!? .... and don't say 'whatever' 'cause I don't wanna hear that! So pick one!"

We were both pretty nervous that we might get beaten if we didn't pick a radio station, so we picked Z100 and he puts on KTU, not because he didn't hear us say Z100, but because Z100 sucks Furthermore, what the driver didn't know was that KTU sucks even worse on the night weekends when they 'mix' all the songs up. Frustrated, the driver decided to break the ice (WTF) by telling a joke.

Wanna hear a joke," the angry driver says.
Yes," we reply, afraid of getting eaten.
"What's the difference between the cop car and an elephant?"
"What," we ask nervously.
One's got an asshole in front and an asshole.... wait.... I fucked up!" He fucked up. We are crapping ourselves.
As he's telling the joke, he's driving down these sidestreets and getting severley lost and again, we are afraid we are going to get hacked up into pieces. Telling jokes and driving is hard for the driver. Not able to multitask very well and he couldn't comprehend a simple request we tried to make.

A few weeks later, a friend of mine was telling me a story of a cab driver who got lost because he was telling a joke he kept screwing up. It was the same driver, but I did not know his name. The way the guy behaved, I wouldn't find it the least bit surprising if he had an embarassing name.... like Courtney. Not that there's anything wrong with the name Courtney, but could you imagine a six foot angry gruff man answer to a name like... Courtney. Thus the driver was dubbed Courtney!

Courtney the Cab Driver

Present Day...

I get in the car and I hear a familar voice shout...
"What do you wanna listen to!? .... and don't say 'whatever' 'cause I don't wanna hear that! So pick one!"

I knew it was him!

I picked Z100 cause I honestly forgot he hated that station with all his might. He asked me if I liked the Stones, to which I replied positively, I wish I knew more of their songs though. So this put him at ease. He was a bit hesitant to tell me his name. (LOL, playing with death) but I gave him mine in return. He told another joke.
"Wanna hear a joke?!!?" I don't want to fight this one, I actually want to hear it. "Two boys playing in a schoolyard. One says to the other, you're a cu*t! The boy goes home and asks his dad, what's a cu*t? Dad pulls out an encyclopedia and points below a woman's bellybutton. Dad says, See this... that's a vagina. Everything else surrounding it is a cu*t! Wanna hear another joke?!?! Two Italian brothers are talking to each other. One guy says, my anniversary is today. THe other guy goes, Oh, what did you get her? The man replies, slippers and a dildo. The man asks, why did you get her those two things? The man answers, because if she doesn't like the slippers, she can go fu*k herself."

I can't lie. I laughed. For real. The guy kept screwing up the joke, getting lost again, offering to smoke weed with me (I said no) :P The guy is totally awesome. LOL

Ah home safe! That was great!

Premiere

Evening! Just got out of a movie premiere of a movie entitled in the above picture. I got to say, what a beautifully well-crafted cinema piece, which clearly shows the anonymous effort between the talented and the hard working.

What an opportunity it was to work with some of the cast and crew, but to be honest... what a mind fuck of a movie. Being on set and seing a scene shot by on its own was easy to understand but when meshed together... woah. At least I was able to see it for a second time, hoping to view it some more but didn't recieve a copy. I'm sure they have their reasons.

Radical Strategy

I'm feeling a lil' bleh. Translation: Lacking motivation to do the essentials. Car was stuck in ice. Car service didn't feel like makin' the dollar. So.... I, in turn, didn't/couldn't want to go to work. But I did. An hour later.
I want to do homework. I'm in front of hundreds of students who slave to it. My mind is elsewhere.

Daily Horoscope for Libra

If you unsuccessfully tried to maintain control over these past weeks, you might try the radical strategy of relaxation and recuperation. Now, as you seek to reestablish your freedom of self-expression, peace of mind may still be eluding you. Don't be overly concerned if everything isn't exactly as you wish. You can still have positive impact on others, but it could take a few more days to see the results you seek.

It started with a text message... then a phone call... then the hail... Ugh woke up at 7:05, not a good start. Then after adding melting salt to a sidewalk that's probably going to freeze in 25 minutes, I left at 7:45. Talk about epic-ly late.

Current Mood - content

Ever been...

Ever been caught in a situation where someone stops you in the middle of everything that you were doing (mid-thought, mid-sentence, mid-bite.... mid-swallow...) and swears that they know you from somewhere... the problem is you've never seen them before... ever...

You try and rack your brain over and over for some sort of recognition, but nothing. Even after they name names from people you knew in your crew, and still.. nothing. I mean, what then? Is that your brain's way of telling you, this person is someone you can do without forever. Or is this person blowing up one meeting into magnificent proportions.

Well this is what happened to me today. The island is small and the school is big. It's possible he does know me, but I haven't the slightest clue. Well, whatever I know him now. I can't forget it. The awkward feeling of not remembering a whole person doesn't match to not remembering a common name. And I'm bad with names.

Additionally, a long time tech at work was feeling down and out last Sunday. I felt bad. This dude is my rock. Always has been the optimistic side of the proverbial "Shyt's Creek." Big guy, big ideas. Perhaps this means it's time to kick potent and inactive plans into overdrive... He gonna get a dose of a mean girl, times 4. (snerk) He talked to his friend who is his rock, but he seems to be down on his luck too. This is contagious. Nothing in my horoscope mentioned this... or did it?

I hate reading into things, but I love to analyze everything. I'm so screwed up...

It happens all the time...

You feel something wrong inside but you can't figure out what. Then people who you know think they know exactly what's ails you, but they don't. They used to, but now it's different. Now it's making you sick. You've finally done it. You finally have a secret. And no one else knows...

First part of a writing assignment! Oooh, that gives me the chills... no, seriously I got the chills. Dreading this upcoming snowstorm. Looking forward to later this week and the next.

Damn Renetto!

and any other person who says anything to "initiate a jerk reactionary talk" is just ridiculous. For all those readers out there, I'm certain you know of a site out there called YouTube, a site that is free for users to sign up and watch and upload videos. Personally, this site was the best but now I think that it's going down the proverbial "tubes", for reasons I don't feel like getting into right now. (cough -Viacom!) Regardless, this site has made people famous such as Lonelygirl15 and made it relatively easy for people to be heard and get their materials out there.

If you are a daily viewer, you are familiar with a guy out there named Renetto. He had a stupid gimmick, where he had a whiny voice that bordered on mental retardation. Recently, he revealed to his viewers that his voice was just a thing and now he's losing viewers because of the things he's said... I'm babbling. Just watch the video...

I could've posted a message like I always do when I see something extremely uneccessary on the internet, but for the very first time I decided to post an actual video message... of sorts. Now watch...

To what avail will this video actually affect viewers,... out the hundred of thousands of viewers that watch everyday.... probably none.

Whatever, I said my piece.

Night!

I kinda wish it was the end of the semester. People's questions, no matter how redundant make the day go faster. C'mon, look at this place. It's empty and i'm bored. The internet is boring. And the world spins slower to extend time. ... Uh oh... Sleepy... zzzzz yes, i know i'm at work. :-x

It's nearly 4 AM and i'm up feeling my chest vibrate to the nasty sounds phlegm makes. Yummy. ...That and my eyes are twitching. What would Joe Pesci do at a time like this? Hmmm...

NEW NEW NEW LAYOUT*

Well, not that new but never the less, new enough. New colors, new background image, new music player. Obviously, it needs some re-tweaking, but with due time.

I'm glad the cold hasn't taken my fingers away. Ever since Friday's encounter with the fun kind, I've been whispering to family and co-workers, pissing everyone off one by one with nothing but low voices. :P

Been extremely productive otherwise. This is good.

Still get paid the same. That's bad.

Staying up telling you... bad.

Phone's Back On!

Got my phone back on. Why was it off you say? Someone thought it would be a practical joke to steal my charger. Here's the thing about 'practical' jokes, practical jokes are humourous because they usually consist of pranks that are either harmless or jokes that can be reversed. In my case, returning the charger. It stops being funny when you neglect to return it. It then transforms into stealing. I must admit not having a phone was kinda fun. I had it but it was dead. If people really wanted to reach me, they had to leave a message. I have a new charges now. So i can blog again. And the new semester started. Before i sign off, i want to ask, why are flags still at half mast? Are we mourning still? Are we really mourning still??? Night.

Reminisce....

Haven't posted. Haven't been sleepig, not well anyways... In my late nights up, I think back.

I miss the 90s... alot

Those were the days...

Twelve hours ago...

Dear blog, it's been over 12 hours since I've gotten sleep. It's abnormal. It's not healthy. I need help.

They're Dropping Like Flies, Roc!!!!

Boy, I picked a bad time to wake up, 3 in the AM, lemme tell you no one's around at all. Well at least I'm getting back into the normal swing of sleep. Right on time to screw it up for the new semester. Meep.

The title of this blog is they're dropping cause it's the truth. They're all going away. Things to do. People to see. Busy, busy apparently. I miss the good ol' days when people will tell ya straight out what they want. A simple 'hey' followed by a 'yay' or a 'nay.' Now it's all this, I'm a grownup crap, and 'hey, my life's going great' but 'I'm sorry yours sucks so much.'

Whatever happened to that 'lend a helping hand' phrase? "I'm sorry' What is that?!?! What is 'I'm sorry'? 'Sorry' lost its meaning ages ago. When I hear the word 'sorry,' it has nothing to do with them, it's me. How do I know it's me? Cause it's the same for everyone that I know, all behaving the same way. Now I could cry and wail like some people I know, but that just isn't me. So.. why is everyone 'sorry' for me? It's like I once heard from someone at work, I really couldn't care less -or- I couldn't be bothered. And it's true because if you really were sorry, and you didn't mean to, then you wouldn't do it. But that's the way the world works, I know. I live in it. Life doesn't suck for me, life sucks cause they're in mine. That's all. And this really applies to everyone I went out with. 'Sorry.' Same rules applies. I know what the reason is, they don't have to reassure me that everything is gonna be fine and the right one's out there just for me. Of course it is. Thank goodness it's not them. The reason is me, which apparently is detrimental to some people. This is fine. This can be fixed and I have every intention of fixing it. (If it's broke...)

In other news, just had late night dinner with the cutie (So cute!) and work before that. MMMM, what a day! All over again tomorrow. Joy. Signing off.
P.S. I'm sorry about the above, it was just a rant thing. You know how it is...
