I don't know how I feel. Someone tell me.

So the wonderful people at All State have decided that the damage done to my car by that fucking retard who can't seem to yield to the (until recently) awesome power of my Black Malibu, wow, I really got side tracked there. Sorry, where was I? Ah yes, the damage was too much to repair, so they have decided to total it.

Frame Damage, ooooohh.. new band name.

All State did, however, give us $4400 for the car, which was kinda nice, I guess.

My padres have decided that they're getting me a '99 Toyota Corolla (or a Camery, I can't fucking remember, I'll figure it out and just post the name some time in the future.) instead. I suppose that'll be alright. It's a V6, that's cool. It's like, red-burgandy or something, I don't know how I feel about that.

Oh well. Whatcha gonna do?

Yeah, so I gotta go tomorrow to get my shit out of the car, the shit like: my stereo, my stuff, my hat, my scarf, I think I have a sweater in there, all kinds of shit. I'm also going to take pictures of it. "There it is kevin, the last time you'll have a sweet car for a while."

I give my entire automobile situation a sideways face.

Long Day

FreestyleFat Ass: don't you love when AIM just turns off?
FreestyleFat Ass: for no reason?
drummer4life x: yah

drummer4life x: i pull out my cock and celebrate by rubbing one out each time

Long Day.

1. English
2. Music Theory
3. History
4. Picking up a library book from my grandma because she's sick right now and can't return it herself.
5. Home for a little bit.
6. Jammed with Paul, that was pretty sweet, always is.
7. Picked up my mom from work because I have been using her car.
8. Work. Slow day there, got all my shit done way too fast, had to kill the time by actually doing something for the good of the company, what's wrong with me?
9. Home again, just had some ramen to warm me up. Talking to two of my favorite people ever in the world, Paul and Meghan.
10. I'm about to go upstairs and read some article for my English class, I'll probably fall asleep while doing that.

Good night.

Green Day

Whenever I think about my favorite bands, Green Day always comes up as my top favorite. Their songs have this light aggression that I think only they can accomplish. Their lyrics, although childish and teen-angst-esque, are really applicable to my life. For instance.

Green Day - Paper Lanterns (Off of their first Album: 1,039 Smoothed Out Slappy Hours)

Now I rest my head from
Such an endless dreary time
A time of hopes and happiness
That had you on my mind
Those days are gone and now it seems
As if I'll get some rest
But now and then I'll see you again
And it puts my heart to the test

So when are all my troubles going to end?
I'm understanding now that
We are only friends
To this day I'm asking why
I still think about you

Yeah. My life (right now, anyway) in a nut shell.

I'm going to go weep and sleep now.

Not really.

Finally, some relief.

Well, thank God for the lack of the No Fault Insurance Law in IL. Because of it not being in our law system, I have to pay nothing for the fixing of my car. That is the best news I've had in a long time.

I can't wait to get it back.

My parents took me to Lou Malnotti's tonight, did I mention that I love pizza more than I love quite a few things? If not, I just did.

The next task is getting through this week (or however long it takes to fix my car) without a car. Tomorrow Ryan Flores is gonna pick my sorry ass up and take me to school, so that should be good. The rest of the week, however (unless we're given a rental car, which I wouldn't be able to drive, because I'm only 19) will consist of me driving my mom to work every morning at 7:30, then coming back home to get ready for school. Suck.

I can't wait 'til this weekend, I want to make it a last hurrah of sorts because I'm taking on more hours at work, which will include Friday and Saturday night. Speaking of work, I saw Mr. Devany there on Sunday (FYI, I work at Babies R' Us, I'm a Baby Gear Specialist, how dainty (-:), he was there with his wife buying furniture that no one bought them off their registry.

I'm going to sleep. Good night.

Ingredients for the Worst Saturday EVER.

1 part hangover. Mixed with a car accident with a woman who doesn't speak English (sweet). I'll explain that later. Then boiled in 5 hours of work. Be sure to add in a pinch of lunch break with the creepy cashier woman who makes the most horrible attempts at conversation I've ever heard.

For Instance:

Isn't it like Alaska out there? (FYI, we got 11 inches of snow last night.)
You're awfully quiet. (I answer, I'm tired and I've had a shitty day.)
What was on your Christmas list? (Alright. What the Fuck? It's January 22nd.)

I hate talking to this woman, she always brings up the fact that I go to COD and that she used to go there and one of the chorus instructors there told her that she has a great voice and shouldn't let it go to waste (BS). The story never changes, it's the same every time. I've heard it 6 times.

Where was I? Ah yes... (sorry Bill Jagnow, but I had to use the "...") Then add a sprinkling of, "Kevin can you do this? Can you do that? Help me with this," bull shit at work.

After work, my parents got Uno's takeout. That was the shit. I love pizza.

Oh yeah, let me tell you all about my accident at 9:08 this morning (or yesterday morning...):

I'm driving southbound on Finley. I am doing this because I swore to Jim Huetson that I'd take him home from Paul's, so this is basically his fault. (Haha, Joke.) I'm passing by those apartments before the Holiday Inn, which is right before Roosevelt, and this fuckin' bitch pulls out right in front of me (because I would obviously be able to stop when there's 6 inches of snow on the ground. I hit her because I couldn't stop in time. Then, this bitch gets out of her car and looks at me like this is my fault (Dane Cook was right.) I walk over to the sign she didn't pay attention to, make sure it said stop, and then went over to see if she was alright (because I'm too fuckin' nice). I ask her if she's got a phone, and she starts talking to me in this, like, language... The only English she knew, was, "I don't speak English," which she was very rude about telling me.

So Jim, after calming me down, was just about to walk into one of those buildings and look for a phone when a Lombard snow plow drives by (God forbid he actually plow the street, we don't like plowed roads in Lombard) and he stopped and called the cops for us. Ends up, her fault, she got a ticket for failure to yield, and that fucking old European bitch better be ready to pay for my shit. I can't wait to go to her court date where I will do something that Rage Against the Machine has been telling me to do for years; Testify!

Alright. Thank you for joining me for the worst day I've had in a long time. I'm going to go to bed and hope to wake up on a tropical island, with a woman on each side of me.

Stay safe, pump your breaks.

Wow.

Hmmmm, it's been a while since my last post. When was the last one? Jesus, the 25th. And that wasn't even a real post, it was a cop-out post. Sorry about that.

Anyway.

Weekend in Galena (Galeena? Fuck.) was incredible. Outdoor Hot Tub + Winter Time + Booze + Stoagies = Fantastic.

The crew that went to this amazing 5 bedroom 4 bathroom (two of those bathrooms are MASTER BATHROOMS HOLY SHIT) was myself, Bob, Paul, Tim, and Jim. The second night we were there we had the deepest conversation I have ever been envolved in. We talked about anything and everything. I can definitly say that we are all better friends after this past weekend. Even without the anal sex.

Wow, you all better KNOW that that was a joke.

Ah yes, and for those of you who were carefully following my love life/lack there of, read this wonderful little part two to the story begun in early December:

FreestyleFat Ass: i told this big black chick named tia that i liked the hot girl
FreestyleFat Ass: --silly me for forgetting that black women love to gossip almost as much as jewish women--
FreestyleFat Ass: anyway
FreestyleFat Ass: so tia goes right ahead and tells this girl that i like her
FreestyleFat Ass: and the girls tells tia that she only likes me as a friend because she already has...
FreestyleFat Ass: 2 BOYFRIENDS.
FreestyleFat Ass: 2
FreestyleFat Ass: two.
FreestyleFat Ass: dos
FreestyleFat Ass: II
FreestyleFat Ass: to
FreestyleFat Ass: too
FreestyleFat Ass: so...
FreestyleFat Ass: fuck that.

(The preceding was extracted from the one-sided IM conversation I had with Paul's away message.)

It's not that I'm complaining. It's actually kinda nice to be able to sit back and realize that I don't have to deal with a lot of the bullshit that I see other people who are in and between relationships dealing with. Of course, one gains useful life experiences from that same bullshit. This whole thing is more or less one of those "I'm just identifying the problem, not begging for a solution" things. Whatever though.
