Daily Update

So the other day I was walking to my lunch appointment, and I was walking by DiddyReese. It was closed for re-modeling. I didn't really care, I was just suprised tosee it closed. But when walking by, there was another group of people staning infront of this ever so popular Cookie-Factory, and the girl/spokesperson for thegroup was absoutly outraged. She was almost ready to file a class-action law suit!No, I'm not kidding. She was on the verge of baligerance I tell you. It was not ahappy time for this lady. (I had to laugh cause it kind of reminded me of otherpeople I know who get upset when they arent' served quickly.) Who would havethought that cookies could to that to a person.

So the other day my car was reaching the end of its 12 gallon fuel reserve, so Idecided to replentish this supply by going to the 'gas-station'. This is wherepeople put Fuel in cars. I went to the 'gas-station' owned by some guy named'Shell'. He must like his name and that 'ocean' theme, because he also has asea-shell as a logo, (and the main reason why I went to this location) and he has acar-wash, or car-shower, just like at the beach. But there was a problem. Mr.Shell's Car-wash was closed, just like the beach closes at 9pm, so does thisShell-Car-Shower/Wash. I was left with little alternitives. I did however notice ahand held squeege device for cleaning windows. If it works on glass...; it works on Faded red paint, Hoods, Roofs, doors, trunks, tires, undercarrages, and so on,right. So I washed my whole car witht he hand-held squeege. It took a littlelonger than I wanted, but It cleaned most of the discusting tree sap and bird poooff my car. Appearently over this last weekend the local seagull brigade did areinactment of World War 2, birds being the alied bombers, and My car ended upplaying the part of Berlin.

I went running yesterday. It went just like the day before. I started out at myfaster pace. I assure you I wasn't trying to 'over-impress' anyone who I might havebeen running with. I started out like the Cheeta, fast, determined, and angry. Myankels would snap back with each graceful stride. My body was in perfect form(technique not physique), just like the well oiled machine I've trained it to be.After the first three minutes the spots faded and I settled down into the properLion Pride that I was ment to be in. I definatly felt better than yesterday, but mytime ended up being 19 seconds more than the last one, 17:28. The reason it wasslower than yesterday was because the local school was having a parent-teacher conf.and ALL the parking by the starting point was taken, thus throwing my checkpointtimes. Then on the second lap I slowed down a lot, but I still was able to shavethe overall time down to 40:40. I even decided to slow down and walk for a total ofthree minutes. I HAD to I tell you, except for when people were watching, then I'dact like I was a pro jogger. I saw the Vampires again. They are scary.

Later on that night I went over to watch 'Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid', with KA and Lincoln. I drank chocolate milk there. It was very entertaining. Rob andPaul do a good job in the movie. Then after that, as if it wasn't enough I waschanging from driving Josh's car to my own, and so I stopped by Greenfield. I sawlights on, and as I approached I heard laughing. So I stopped by. The kids werejust hanging out, eating cake, drinking milk, shooting eachother in the face withnerf guns, you know, the usual. Moments passed when I commented on an annoyingconstant beep. EmWin started punching numbers on a keypad, when suddenly a horriblealarm sounds! (it was around midnight) Evan2 went for the closet where the alarmwas hidden, and I start calling all the phone numbers on the keypad device. While Iwas talking with Jen, Evan2 found the alarm's battery power, so he cut the sound.Jen instructed us on how to permenatly disable the device. Poor neighbors. Itwasn't really our fault though. I ate more cake, performed in a short fashion show,gossiped about stuff, drank more milk, then gave Jam a ride to her car, and thenhome again. Then I went home.

I'm glad that American Idol is finally over, now I can stop activily hating it. theauditions are great entertainment, but the competition just sucks. They are alljust mediocre singers, and usually the good vocalists go bye-bye early on becausethey don't know how to wow the audience. Now my tv watching skills are leading meto a new show, 'So you think you can Dance'. Yes!I've promised myself to put in at least two hours of work on my Man-Box thisweekend. This work will be mostly drawing onto the wood, and then carving. I alsoplan to go to a Star Wars Convention down town maybe tomorrow morning, and maybemonday morning. It's going to be ultra-nerdy awesome.

I'm listening to Greenday right now. [Green Day is an American rock band formed in1989 comprising of three core members: Billie Joe Armstrong (guitar, lead vocals),Mike Dirnt (bass) and Tré Cool (drums). Green Day was originally part of the punkrock scene at 924 Gilman Street in Berkeley, California. Their early releases forindependent label 'Lookout!' Records earned them a grassroots fanbase, some of whomfelt alienated when the band signed to a major label. Nevertheless, their majorlabel debut Dookie became a breakout success in 1994 and eventually sold over 10million copies in the U.S. alone. As a result, Green Day was widely credited, alongwith fellow California punk bands The Offspring and Rancid, with reviving mainstreaminterest in and popularizing punk rock in the United States. Green Day's immediatefollow-up albums did not achieve the massive success of Dookie, but they were still successful.]
