Good Ending To A Boring Day

Sat around Josh's apartment most of the day (went to Wal Mart though to buy food) and dabbled with Myspace awhile in between watching The Buddy Holly Story (good film). Made a new friend, Lola, and she is keen on films and writing, and she wants to help us work on the next Scramble which will be cool. She has a friend who also wants to help. The more talent we can gather around us the better. I wasn't very interested, honestly, in working on the next Scramble, but now I have been rethinking that. Seems my creative juices are getting back into action. I need to do it. And now that we have some new blood aiding the Suction Horse team, I think it will be great.
Oh and I did have a cellphone but dont anymore at the moment, but I will be getting another one in the coming week. So when I get it I will let everyone know the new number, for those of you who have been wanting to get in touch with me. Things have been hectic, and a little depressing lately, so I havent had the time to keep in touch with everyone like I had hoped. But I will call everyone and visit soon.

What's New?

Well, I ended up cutting my hair before I was able to grow it out and donate it -- apparently it was getting on everyone's nerves... So I gave in and chopped it.
I finished The Horse and His Boy by Lewis. Eventually I will get around to reading the rest of the Narnia Chronicles. I also finished Dostoevsky's The Possessed. It was, to me, not one of his best novels. It was good, but I think one needs more knowledge of that culture to understand all of the political undertones of the book. I read Lolita by Nabokov (from one Russian to another), and it was good. The theme of the book is obviously disturbing, but it was a good read. It didn't end the way I really thought it would.
I am now reading The Naked Lunch by Burroughs, which is possibly the most bizarre thing every written. Very stream of conscious, and it seems to revolve mostly around the seedy world of sex and drugs in the most graphic of details.

What else? I don't work for Sungard anymore. I took a string of part time work with the hopes of going back to school but money dried up fast and I had to find a full time job. I had gotten back out on my own (briefly) but that fell apart and I am living with my best friend Josh at the moment till I can get back on my feet. It stinks. Not that I don't like hanging with Josh, I just want my own place. So I am going to start saving up for that. I will have to find a roommate though I am sure. Josh and I talked about that. But I don't know, we will see.

The new job is with a tire supply company in Homewood. I work in the shipping dept. Its a small operation but it pays better than Sungard ever did.

Guess that is all for now.

Oh -- and a little something from one of our short films -- I played a, well, um ... just see the picture! :-)
