for those who it may confuse
so, i had every intention this morning to wake up, get dressed in sharp looking clothes that i had just bought, go to work, and learn the art of list management some more. then have an enjoyable evening. instead, as i sit here and talk to you, i’m probably broke for the rest of the summer. i suppose you want to hear the story. its not much of one. i decided to take coffe to work w/ me...

fuck. i think i have add.
it seems like an eternity. its only been 48 though. in those past hours i’ve been thrust into corporate america. gotten my emo-boy glasses. made faces in a mirror with them on. withy my non-played guitar. blown a large sum of money at brooks brothers o i can look like just another suit. still haven’t cleaned up my room. footed half the bill at a diner. wasted more time on moc....

for those about to rock
i suppose this is my third entry for today. as planned, nothing else happened today. it was sort of a surreal memorial day. the previous week had been so shitty and now a beautiful day where i stayed inside. tomorrow i start my new job. and i get to take pop to the airport hella early also. the rest of today was spent looking at the make.out.club profiles. i don’t know why these are...

the red swivel chair
it’s been a pretty off-beat memorial day. i just felt like writing, even though the day is not done (in all other respects, it probably is). so i hit up the bank and willowbrook this morning. got a 20 dollar button-down shirt from the gap. malls are always great places to go and watch people. people consuming. it’s great. anyway. i got home and sat my fat-ass in front of the...

rudy can't fail
i spent the rest of today. yesterday rather. updating my web site. i was close to getting the whole fucking thing done when BAM. program error. and guess who forgot to save. trellix needs to have an automatic save option put in their next version. i had the program running all day. something must’ve maxed out my system resources or something. so, i lost a shitload of work i had...

watching flies fuck on channel 11
i know its only midday, but amazingly church this morning is prompting me to write. mary delivered this morning’s sermon to a sparse memorial day crowd. i did sound. i guess when i’m back there i listen more. anyway, she got talking about how we are the body of christ. how we are god with skin on. some shit like that. made me think that, if we are god with skin on then why worry...

rainy day
i probably worked my last day in the pharmacy today, for a while hopefully. i got good money for it though, so that was cool. family took sarah to the vet. she has early on-set arthritis. nothing big. thank goodness. katie would be devastated if sarah died. i’d be sad too. that dog has been nothing but good to our family. i feel guilty that we keep her outside all the time and...

chocolate chip pancakes
today was sort of a shitty start to memorial day weekend. i worked from 9-1 and then picked up the kids from school. was late though. grandma went and installed windows 98 and pretty much erased all the work i had accomplished on her computer. i’m starting not to care. but she said she’ll pay me, so if i have time this weekend or next i’m going to see if i can fix it some. ...

must....kill.....big.....fly.....in......room
there is this big-ass fly flying around my room. i’ve knocked it on its ass a couple of times. but i don’t think its dead yet. well. today was the same as all the others. it didn’t rain. so it was nice out. worked from 9-5. saw a kid i went to elementary school with, joe daniw. he apparently works at the gulf station now on hamburg trnpk. arm was in a cast. ciggarette...

the day off
errr….not a whole lot happened today. it was my day off. woke up around 10. forgot to start the xenadrine. fuck. oh well. went to compUSA and picked up windows 98 for grandma. installed that. still doesn’t acknowledge her whole hard drive. picked up the kiddies. went to the ec high school concert. rebecca punked out so i didn’t do much of anything tonite. tomorrow i...

a night with the blondes
i was too tired to write this last night. anyway. yesterday i worked from 9-5 at the pharmacy. it was cool to be back there working with chris, but when 3pm rolled around. i was ready to bizzounce. after work i tried to put windows 98 on grandma’s computer. unsuccessful. mom doesn’t want me to put 98 on. but if i don’t, grandma wastes 18 GB of hard drive she paid...

back in the saddle
monday brought back some level of normality to my life. i messed up setting my alarm the night before and my dad had to call me to wake me up so i could drive him to penn station in newark. got that out of the way. katie stayed home today because she didn’t feel good. mom had CPA training. so i had to hold down the fort. which i did, quite well i think. took care of my job situation. ...

party like a charger!
well, i’ve been to the edge and back dear friend. it was both frightening and releiving at the same time. not really. i just went up to new haven for the weekend, that’s all. friday was hectic. after procrastinating for god knows how long i finally decided to pack and pick up pohoulis so we could drive to tom’s. we left north jersey around 4pm on friday and reached west...

let's talk about sex
well…sort of. in light of recent events, when the situation presents itself, what do i do? i tell myself that i’ll go for it. then i sit back and look at the flip-side. waiting and all. that makes sense too. i don’t give a fuck about religion. religion is for people who can’t handle themselves. thats the way it seems at least. anyways, back to sex. haha. for the...

the time is now
ever have one of those moments where you are just itching so bad to write because so much has happened in the past what…day? well, yeah, guess who is having one of those moments. too bad all the shit i’d like to write about would make no sense whatsoever to you or totally isn’t your business. so in essence….i don’t have much to write about. goddamn the irony of...

i dunno, the rest of today i guess
picking up where i left off, the bank and getting an answering machine were quite eventful. i went to circuit city instead of radio shack. there i saw melissa pajot, who graduated from ec a couple of years before me. i hope i’m still not around that long after i graduate high school. that would just suck. after eating lunch at mccobbs, i picked up betsy and katie. brought them to...

hit or miss
i guess i missed. i had every intention to do a journal entry before i left for tom’s last night but that didn’t fall through. monday wasn’t much. i found the splitter i was looking for. so i have a new home phone number now. i just have to go pick up an answering machine. i also got my phone back, so my old cell # is working now. have to change voice mails and everything...

where's that splitter?
the rest of saturDAY went without event. saturday night was another story. tom called me up around 10 and i went over to his house to chill. john (guitarist from his band) was supposed to bring us beer but tom couldn’t get a hold of him, so we went out driving looking for him. he was at his house with tracy, kristen, allison, kevin, and a bunch of other kids. that was a kick in the...

mid-day
well, i ended up doing pretty much nothing yesterday. picked pops up from newark. didn’t end up hanging out with bill or the king. went to wayne hills mall though. woo-hoo. got some xenadrine. this shit looks pretty intense. i have to roll by the pharmacy to ask chris if i can take it with allegra-D. get the ‘burb washed again this weekend. bands are dropping like flies. the...

no more skull mountain
i should probably catch up on the sleep i’ve been deprived of the past two days, but instead, i’m typing. looks like my priorities are in check. so i picked up allison bright and early thursday morning, we went down to great adventure and met up with the a bunch of our friends from rider. there weren’t many people at the park at all and we had a good time, albiet i was tired...

one fine day
it’s a saturday morning here in north jersey and i’m awake before 11am. amazing. well, not really. i have a lot of crap to do today (wash the car, get my hair cut, fix my grandmother’s computer, unload my crap, move stuff from my room into the basement, stop by the pharmacy, laundry, and while i’m at it…save the world). last night i hung out with bill. that was...

i didn't fail my plan, i just planned to fail
i’ve already missed a day in this whole journalizing bit. i could use the excuse that i was really busy doing work and socializing at the house (which i was), but i’m not. truth is, i’m a lazy bastard. back to other things. thursday i woke up at 11, pounded out a 5-page history paper by 1:30, handed that in and then relaxed the rest of the day. went and chilled out at the...

this band sounds like U2
good morning. i really don’t have much to write since the last time. i went to the c-store last night and saw kelly and her brother pat. i gotta get the courage to say something to her. i have to. something. before she leaves. we might not be friends again, but i don’t want us to hate each other over jack shit the next four years. i’ve read her shit, her profile, her away...

one more paper. one more final.
greetings. ironically, i came across livejournal by looking at the AOL IM profile of this girl my good friend john from Rider is hooking up with. it looks like a pretty neat idea. i’ve always had an itch to journal on the web. i never had the time or the motivation to do so. however, because of livejournal, i have both now. sounds like i found god or some shit. not even. anyways,...
