Rants, yeah, usually just rants about stupid people. Occasional posts about myself or my friends and/or life.

BACK TO WORKING!!!

Hey ya'll, I got my internet working again!!! I had to get comcast to get their asses down here and fix the damn thing. Simple fix, but they made it a real bitch.. ugh. But, we got it back on track so I'm happy happy.

The past few weeks have been pretty cool. I can't say I did much of anything in particular... got wasted last Friday at State for their welcome week, then Saturday went up to CMU to drink and hang with Andrea. My cousin Matt and his friend Adam met me over there for the night. They ended up staying out until almost 5am, but Andrea and I were spent since neither of us got much sleep the night before. All in all though, it was a lot of fun and I think we all had a good time.

I'm playing Yahoo Hold'em, I suck, but its actually a pretty good waste of time. Unfortunately, I am wasting my time when I should be arranging my room like I had told myself when I woke up.

So, not too much is going on. I'm not in school right now like everyone else that I know. Admittedly, it is a little odd... I'm so used to buying books and all that shit. Andrea mentioned that she feels left out of my life because she is still in school, but to me I kinda feel left out of her life. You see, when she is at school she has a whole bunch of stuff going on (homework, partying, friends, work) but all I have is work and then sitting around for a long time until I go to sleep and then wake up again for work. You see, she has stuff going on all the time and I'm stuck here with "life" or something.

Anyways... I'm tired of typing about life.

Here is my complaint --> with gas being $3 / gallon it is the biggest pain in my ass to hear people complain about the gas and at the same time driving a huge vehicle and going over the speed limit. If you are going to bitch continually about how you can't afford the gas, you have a few options.

1. Slow down - it is a proven fact that every mph over 55 that you go, the lower your mpg is. And after 60 mph, your mpg plummets. How about just slowing down to the speed limit? Is that so impossible?

2. Scale down - your Tahoe has a V8 in it. You only tow things once a year. How about you just drive a small vehicle and borrow a friend's truck to put your boat in the water and take it out. Typically you would save $400 - $800 per year.

3. Stop driving - if you can't stop complaining and don't want to conform to option 1 or 2 then your dumb ass needs to get the hell out of the car and turn yourself into the dumbass police because you are ONE... DUMB... ASS...


All for now... peace.

I'm bored...

Hey, long time no post...

I've been doing the usual stuff. Just basically working, keeping in touch with people, talking to my girlfriend, and the usual web-based work that I tend to dabble in.

Andrea is up at CMU, its welcome week so they are all partying and being crazy. I'm headed up there on Saturday after a night of fun around MSU. My cousin and I are going to meet up at Andrea's place and plan to spend most of Saturday afternoon / evening drinking and catching up on life (since we haven't really hung out in a few years).

I talked to Rob last weekend and it turns out that he may be getting the boot from the Army. I guess they wanted his medical records to see if he has asthma. Nonetheless, I can't say that I wasn't a little happy that Rob might be coming back into the area. It would be nice to see him again.

I'm kind of tired right now... I'm going to stop right now.
