Update

Sat, 23 Feb 2008 23:09:26 GMT

Just an update for those I never see.

I got my hair cut today. It looks good, and makes my ear tales seem longer.

I bought some new shirts at Hot Topic that are awesome. There was also a song on in there that was very death metal and had a scream at the end like nothing I have ever heard, nor want to hear again, in my life.

I got a light novel(manga with no pictures!) called Koni no Tabi that is great. I looked it up online and apparently TokyoPop is either 1) being wankers and not putting out the rest or 2) having licensing troubles. Makes me sad.

I tried this new excercise routine that Bear told me about, from Mike. It owned me.

It is 5:05 PM and I am waiting to cook my salmon. It took me a week but I found(and tweaked) a recipe for salmon, but it has to marinate for two hours, so I must wait. Better be good, or I may cry.

Last note, me and clouds are on bad terms for blocking out the eclipse. *Angry Face*

Sheer Lunacy

Well, for those that don't know I got the coolest thing ever a few weeks(months maybe) ago. It is a National Geographic science toy called "Moon In My Room." It looks just like the Moon, well its not a full sphere. It is flat on the back to fit on the wall. It comes with a remote that let your cycle through all the phases of the Moon, or you can hit another button and let it slowly move through the phases on its own. And its super bright.

Well, I had messed with it alittle but nothing much. That changed when I was cleaning The Bear Room(Bear's old room). I took down some more of his Star Wars figures and hanged the Moon up dead center of the wall, just a bit lower then the top. Still I didnt do much with it, though my Wizards in Winter light show was cool enough. Then yesterday, I was sitting in there reading Hana-Kimi 13-16 on the new futon, because Skoot was rocking Guitar Hero. After I finished Hana-Kimi though I was struck with a horrible realization, I had nothing to do! And hours to go until Life After People(Which rocked, shame on those that didnt watch). So I did the only thing I could do, cranked up the Zune(the pillows playing of course) and set the Moon on autocycle. So I watched...and watched....and watched. The great thing was it rocked! I wasnt getting bored of it. I watched it for god knows how long. It was really peaceful and was a very good enviroment to do some deep thinking.

Thought I would share that. Skoot came in and said I was being emo, but I was sitting on the futon watching the moon and smiling. Sure doesnt seem like an emo to me. Then he joined me and enjoyed it.

This also reminds me that there are still some people that need to sign/draw on our wall.

The Day The Earth Stood Still

Mon, 21 Jan 2008 03:44:47 GMT

No, not the old, yet awesome sci-fi movie. I was more of hinting at the History Channel special "Life After People" The title is pretty self explanatory, but it is talking about what the world will be like after we are gone. It looks awesome, wild animals in New York, plants reclaiming land by covering buildings, kitties living in skyscrapers. All and all I think it will be cool. It comes on at...well not sure. It will be at 8 or 9. Think its 8PM because its a two hour special and it comes on tomorrow.

Then after the world is destroyed on History Channel, go and pick up a copy of Advance Wars Days of Ruin for the Nintendo DS. It will be fun and the world is destroyed in it too. YAY!

So Justin pointed out that I haven't posted in two months, I believe is what he said. I was doing so well too. It started because of work and now I rarely get on the computer, which when I do its usually to add or tweak my Zune. In recent news, I have been getting a fair amount of money and its means good things. I am rocking Christmas like a meter strike and my collections are growing. It is almost scary. My manga collection has nearly doubled in the two months or so I have been getting paid. Found some really good ones, that some people will have to read when they get come hang out. I really need to get to work on my wall shelf because my dresser looks like a city skyline due to books.

If you care how I am doing, I will tell you I am fine. Work is ok, people getting fired and such. Home life is pimp as ever and I have even started seeing friends more often. I don't have much else to say, so I won't say anything.

The pimpest seagull I have ever seen

Thu, 25 Oct 2007 23:23:31 GMT

So my friend Brandi sent me this, and I can't say it better so I will copy and paste it.

I love how he walks in casually, then speeds up on his getaway
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b258/CO_Brad/Seagull.jpg

A seagull in Scotland has developed the habit of stealing chips from a neighborhood shop.

The seagull waits until the shopkeeper isn't looking, and then walks into the store and grabs a snack-size bag of cheese Doritos.

Once outside, the bag gets ripped open and shared by other birds.

The seagull's shoplifting started early this month when he first swooped into the store in Aberdeen, Scotland, and helped himself to a bag of chips. Since then, he's become a regular. He always takes the same type of chips.

Customers have begun paying for the seagull's stolen bags of chips because they think it's so funny. A

So yeah, I have been wanting to post up about my Harry Potter box set but didnt want to do it without pictures. Well today I found out I can send pictures to myself from my phone, so I got one. Its too big, I think, to post directly so I have a link:

http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b258/CO_Brad/HarryPotterTrunkSet.jpg

Its in a plastic container. I call it my no-spills-or-pet-bothering protection. I am really paranoid of it getting messed up. It was expensive and my birthda present from my parents, so I was be pissed if it...well got pissed on. I would take more pictures but it takes ages to send pictures from my phone with the crappy reception we get out here.

So now that Bear is gone, we(Annie, Skoot, and myself) get his room. Well since his shiz is still in there taking all the space, we can't really do much. Nevertheless Skoot and I set about measuring and sketching plans for an wall consuming shelf for our ever growing collection of books, manga, CDs, movies and whatever the hell else. It will be 14 inches wide long for each shelf, made specifically to fit my Harry Potter trunk set(which is sexy in a none Dumbledore way). It will end up having six, eight foot long shelves. Plus alittle extra on the top where the ceiling slants.

Now today was one of those boring days...the REALLY boring days. Well after doing a few things here and there, sorting the sock box, yay... and shaving myself a Fu Man Choo(Annie's word) WHOO! All and all I was still bored. So I decided to take a section of wall and draw what the shelf will look like, full scale, though only lines. Well that took all of ten minutes, while hold a conversation with Annie. So I decided to have fun...and draw on the walls. I started by signing my name, a few times. Then Skoot did. And Annie joined in. Neither of them have drawn anything but I have started. I drew sasquatch under a palm tree, Mario in a Smash Bros battle, wrote Runaway7 for no reason, and did this weird doodle. Its great!

So my task is to get everyone over here and get them to contribute some, or a lot! If it ends up being really cool I won't cover it. The drawings will just be there behind the books.

Cheyenne, since you are in Smog City, you can't realistically add to it, but send some pictures and we can transfer them!

IN OTHER NEWS!!!
If you ever listened to the Verve, and those who didn't shame on you, then there is good news. Despite being homos and breaking up ten years ago they are back together! I loaded their new song and it is pretty righteous!

Holy Hell

Ok, I was on Boktai Online, a forum I frequent, when I saw this topic. It was about a Lifetime original movie..."Original" should be used very loosely. Becuase once you see it, the movie is a complete rip off of Death Note! It's crazy! Best thing to do is watch the link.

Raise your hand if your principal is a HOMO!

Dumbledore is a homosexual. Rowling said it herself. Horray for strong gay people! Makes you wonder if him and Grendlewald had a thing...No wonder Aberforth was angry, he had to listen to homos in the next room!

HAHAHAHAHAHA

No one on here probably cares, but Advance Wars DS 2 was proven to exist today! Before we only had a vague slip of paper at some conference that said it was coming out. Now we have pictures! Crappy ones! But pictures none-the-less! I am happy and may faint. ^_______________^

I want it now...

Consider this my first rant.

Sun, 30 Sep 2007 19:08:56 GMT

Here is what I am mad at. Sleep paralysis. I can't stand it. For those who have never had it here's a break down. Sleep paralysis is when your mind is awake but your body is not. Pretty much you have woken up during REM sleep. What makes it bad is that you can see(if your eyes are open) stuff moving around you but you cannot move. Your mind is working, but it could also be stuck in a dream partially. When it happens to me, I start becoming parnoid to sleep, scared I will go back into a spell of it. Well it happened today, here's what happened...

I was laying down on Skoot's bed, trying to get a short nap before we possibly went out today. I had the TV on, History Channel of course, and Band of Brothers was on. As I lay there, on my stomach, I drifted to sleep. Soon I started hearing Band of Brothers, but I couldn't open my eyes and as far as I could tell, I was still asleep. Then when I tried to move I couldn't. I begin to panic and try to make small movements and shake myself awake. Well, it wasn't working and as this was going on, the narrator of the show was talking about a German digging a tunnel to help Nazi troops escape prison. That would be fine normally, but being clinically asleep it affected my dream. I was suddenly face down in a long narrow tunnel. Seeing as I am no fan of small spaces, I freaked out even more. Nothing would wake me up and I was stuck in my own mind. Thankfully Bear woke me up being loud(blowing his nose...) and it shook me out of the episode.

Now I have nothing but the fear of sleep paralysis with me when I go to bed tonight. I hate it...a lot. *sigh*

Today's Adventure and the Red Dress

Sat, 29 Sep 2007 21:58:45 GMT

I actually have something worth while to post on here! Ok today we went to the mall...the whole family. Which would usually turn out disasterous. I was grumpy alittle this morning becuase I couldn't fall asleep last night for thinking about stuff, so I didn't have all my beauty sleep.

So we all set out in the van and get to the mall, dad gets his glasses, we shop, the usual. Well all the girls, Annie, Lisa, and my mom set off to look at clothes my mom could sport at the wedding. Well the guys, in an almost shamefully male stereotype, go off in the opposite direction. After look at one store, we all realize that we have covered the few stores we look at and have nothing to do. So, we go to EB games, Skoot was trying to get the Phantom Hourglass display, and sat there...and sat...and sat...Pretty mundane. Then we find out the ladies were currently at the Dillard's, so we decide to catch up to them. Well, we find them, the go to the guy's stuff to coat shop. When we get back my mom was trying on dresses and asking opinions which I tried to stay out of, I know I don't have style. ^_^ Well after my mom had narrowed it to three she brought them out and asked us our opinions again. Then she asked if we had seen any other dresses we liked, at which I jump up. I head for this very red ver lobster looking dress Annie had shown me earlier. So I start telling her to get it, and then I take the hang and put it around my neck and try it on...and this is what you get.

^__^ My dad jumped up and tried to make me take it off, which only egged me on. He is embarrased as hell and trying to make sure no one saw me. Then I start yelling "Hey, he's my dad!" and pointing him out. Then a few ladies saw me and broke out into laughter, which I could totally understand. Then as I am putting it back, a lady asked me the size and was looking to buy it! Moral of this story, the devil may be a beautiful woman in a red dress, but I rock it harder then her any day. And I am also a good, if not alittle embarassing, advertisement.

Enjoy this picture. I sure did.

Haiku Time!

Tue, 25 Sep 2007 02:26:40 GMT

I can think of no better way to use this place then to spread the sacred art of haikus. Actually, we were just talking about them yesterday and I am in the mood. I am no expert so if I mess up, forgive me.

This is one I wrote on another sight and thought I would share.

Though it can stop time,
It lacks the strength to stop war,
And break trusting hearts.

Now new ones...As soon as I think one up.

This is Adam!!!!
