  So we got the apartment!!!! We are moving at the end of may to Park St, Saratoga. Woohoo!! Rocco didnt give us any problems with wanting to leave on time with our lease either, as apposed to having to stay an extra month which was something we said we would have to do to find an apartment. Things are working out. It's a second floor, two bedrooms, bigger kitchen, has dishwasher (major plus), porch (major plus to allow cat to go outside). We payed our fifty bucks to process our credit checks and everything. So we are all set. Schhwweeet.   ¶ 4/28/2003 11:53:00 AM 0 comments

  Oh by the way, it looks like the Insurance company raped Sara out of a thousand dollars. I was going to say ass-fucked but didn't like the context with the sentence, but there it is in a different sentence so you get the idea. Not right. So my question to the world is, what can we do? We payed this place 526 dollars to repair her car, they replaced the radiator, water pump, and some thermostats. Now, some Insurance Inspector says the cause was a leak in the fuel line? Well didn't they (NCR) see that? All we want is her money back? Does anyone advise a solution? To what level can I herass these people without it being illegal and me getting locked up? Can I jam on their phone lines until they pay? Can I hack their website and fuck it up? Can i put up posters all over the surrounding towns with a picture of what they did? Can I call every other shop, garage, dealer and warn them against recommending these bastards? What can I legally do to assfuck this mechanic for five hundred bones?  ¶ 4/28/2003 10:20:00 AM 0 comments

  The Weekend is over, it never lasts as long as you want it to and it always ends before you are ready. But that's just the way it is. On friday wee looked at a place on Park Street in Saratoga. We decided on Saturday after looking at one other spot that we wanted it and now we are just waiting to hear back from the lady. Saturday we drove to Newburgh and back so Sara could borrow her grandmother's-Kate's soon to be white car. It's a boat but it certainly helps her get to and back from work this week. Sunday we drove up and down route 50 and stopped at all the car shops to see what was available. We found about 20 good cars but almost all of them are probably out of her and i's price range. The Lakers won to tie their series with Minnesota, that's good. Not much else. I leave for Vegas tomorrow, I'm about to get my project done before leaving, so that's good. Rock and Roll.  ¶ 4/28/2003 10:06:00 AM 0 comments

  MAdduX The Braves have won 5 in a row ladies. They are no longer in a race for last place against the Mets (who stink by the way). Heres a picture of Greg Maddux from last nights game against the Phillies where they came back to win the game 5-4. It was the first time I saw them in action on tv all year. I like baseball, im not crazy about it. It's much more exciting when the end of the season and playoffs come around. Hopefully this years Braves aren't as bad as everyone thinks and they return to the NLCS and World Series, and I have something to care about in baseball. (Time to clean so I can make my way towards Oneonta for some fun)

I put this vice city mix on there and I don't know what other music is on my computer, but the thing has gone weird on me. I smell pop tarts. No I don't, but when I said I did you probably believed for a few seconds. I know you did. I read it in your brain. I can do that. I have powers. Like that crazy thing that someone is passing around on the internet and I dont know how it works, does it work? I have only tried it once. right here Umm. Right? So what actually is playing on this devil box this time? Ahh it is kiss the frog. Craig from ebong has been kind enough to turn us on to kiss the frog But hmm. Okay well i guess that solves that riddle. What other things can we think of to do. Lighten up relax. Wait this dude is singing about bills. Next song. "Would even care?, and I feel IT. I feel IT" Speaking of IT, yeah dogs. I know. I'll share a supposed picture of the theme for "It". What's it? I'll tell you what it is. In August. In Maine. Phish festival. Yeah. Fun

  Cars are not supposed to burn up. They just arent. Ever. Never. Ever. What THE FUCK???? So, I follow my girlfriend up to Queensbury to get her radiator fixed or replaced yesterday, depending on what was needed. We drop it off fine. They call her today, they have to replace the radiator. 500 bucks. Okay, expensive, but probably necessary. Fine. I drive her up there to pick it up and you would just automatically assume okay, everythings fine now. My radiator won't leak, I'll be set. Its a volvo 740 turbo in case your wondering. Volvo's are solid. THEY DONT BURN UP. So we are driving down the road and next thing you know I notice that there are some sparks under neath. NOT GOOD. Finally I wave her to pull over on I-87, the engine in smoking, there are sparks on the ground.. ETC. FUCK. So, it gets more smokey. She's not in the car at this point. More SMOKEY. Then we are like shit, we tried calling the place we just payed 500 bucks to, to tell them they fucked up. I call 911 and say, my girlfriends car is ON FIRE. Send the fire truck, "Do you see flames?" Now I do. The fucking thing is on fire. First reponse people get there try to put it out with a fire extenguisher. Right. No. Cop comes. Nice cop. The thing is totally burning up now. Not just like a candle or anything. The whole front end is ENGULFED with flames. My god! What the fuck? Cars are not supposed to burn. Ever. Especially ones that just got work done on them, they are supposed to be fixed. Needless to say, the thing is toast. The car is destroyed, done for. I have faith that things will work out. It really really sucks. There is no, it could have been worst. Don't think about that. It was THE WORST. One minute your writing reminders about needing inspections, the next your car is gone. Done for. Thank you to those three nice guys who pulled over to help, the very nice cop Bowens, the very nice firemen, and anyone else that helped my girlfriend and I out on the side of I-87 around 6:45 on April 17th, 2003. That was fucked up and not right. It is safe to assume the people who "installed" her new radiator are to blame. Can I prove it right now? I don't know. The thing was fine yesterday and now its all burnt the fuck up. (I apologizing for how many f-bombs are in this post, but I find it necessary for venting purposes). We are going to seek legal advice and find out what can be done about this situation. All that matters is that she is safe. She is safe, just very freeked out. It's times like these that help me remember all the good things. Yes, I am a light-hearted person and like to have fun and make jokes. But damn dude, CARS DON'T FUCKING BURN Up. Thanks for listening, i'm done for now.  ¶ 4/17/2003 08:50:00 PM 0 comments

  Hey Homeys. I'm in Seattle at a public library and the clock is ticking. so I have to be quick. It's raining. Yesterday was real nice and we went around town and what not, pictures later of course. I'll be jamming in town for the rest of the week. Can't wait to see the SU game tonight. Going to go to Tiger Mountain tomorrow and probably Olympia park on thursday or something which has a rain forest and is a 6 hour drive away. Adventure. Magic. Moooog. Anyway, just wanted to give a quick shot out to the world to let you know i'm still around. The flights weren't as bad as the last ones so thats good. Stupid airports. Man we had a bad experience at cincinnatti aiport trying to get crappy mcdonalds food. finally after a super long wait in line we get up there only to have the girl walk out. we wait ten minutes, stupid manager checks to make sure there are enough apple pies and helps us none... we say fuck it then go spend 10 bucks on two hot dogs. whatever. i hate airport food places. yesterday i ate a five pound burritto and am still feeling the effects from that. peace ya'll someone is waiting for my bullshitting to end so they can use this beast. good luck b train in the finals for nba fantasy. im not. oh well. he will win. later homeys. word. yo. dogg.  ¶ 4/07/2003 07:26:00 PM 0 comments

  Ummmmmmmmm. We just got this sound masking equipment installed at our office and I'm not so sure about it. Basically its a series of speakers that pump out musak, yeah elevator musak, and white noise. So it sounds like static with some light music underneath it. I have to say, my first reaction is not very receptive. I'm sorry, i'm just not into the listening to static scene. I feel it in the center of my chest pulling apart my insides with a laser flashlight. I put my headphones on to listen to real music, which I can only do for so long, cause I like to hear what's going on elsewhere. The idea behind this stuff is to try to block noises from certain areas of the room from going into the others...so I can deal with it if it solves the situation, but right now I feel really side swiped by this overwhelming feeling of swimming in a static sea. But we were told to be open minded, so I'll give it a chance. I don't want to feel like a spoiled brat if I say anything about it. So if its read here, I don't care. This is my mind, I don't ever want to put a censor on this. I want this thing to flow out my thoughts into the open air, so they don't get stuck bouncing around in my head. Arggg! Static. I'm going to have to come in some night and put on some Dark Side of the Moon. There are speakers all over this office, it is literally an ideal office surround sound setup. Whatever. I'm out.  ¶ 4/03/2003 04:17:00 PM 0 comments

  Saying Good Night every night at the end of work is so overrated. Aren't we going to see each other in the morning. I'm a bigger fan of Good Morning I guess. Some people might want me to say good night to them, i'm sorry, i'm just not a good night kinda guy. I'm a good morning type. So if I don't say good night to you, don't take any offense, that's just my style. This doesn't mean that I won't ever say it, I just don't want you to make me feel obligated to say it. I'd rather sketch out. That's all. Just another observation.  ¶ 4/01/2003 06:36:00 PM 0 comments
