As soon as I got home, I was told that a little girl fell. . .I swear. I didn't think it was that scary on our porch. After a while, I heard another group of people outside and a little kid crying. *maniacal laughter ensues* There were times when a few people ran once they got on our porch. *more maniacal laughter ensues* This reminds me of why it's my favorite Pagan holiday. Ahh, I'm going to Hell for this.

Happy Halloween or something like that.

Some people just aren't meant to be part of the human race. They just don't have the qualities to be labeled as a person. They should be categorized as "something else" because being a human just isn't fitting. If there were a grading system on "being a human", they wouldn't be considered.

I've learned that college students aren't very clean people. I think art students are the worst about this though because they look dirty at times. They walk around musty and smell like smoke for the most part. I'm not one of these people. The only time I'm dirty is from drawing or painting. It's never a hygiene thing. I was a victim of smelling dirty hair today. Actually, she smelled like walking dirty hair and a smoke stack. I've also heard people discuss not taking a shower. This is much more than I need to know. Really.

The note read from afar:

"The coffee machine is broken. A mechanic is on the way."

I knew shouldn't have started drinking that damn vanilla cocoa.

Then some lady proceeded to put money into the machine. I guess she didn't read the note that was quite visible. . .above the money slot.

So I got some for my afternoon class.

When watching a film in a Gen Ed (General Education) class, it's always a bad sign when the first thing you hear is bad music and then you see bad "in camera" special effects being used.

Lazy people work at Circuit City. (About 5 people walked past us while we stood at one of the merchandise cases. You would've sworn we were invisible.) I remember the days of feeling like I was being attacked by vultures when I went to the store. I like Best Buy better anyway. They have a better selection of everything. . .except VHS tapes now. You'll only be able to get them online. That's okay though. I knew there was a reason that I always picked Best Buy over Circuit City. Besides, Best Buy has a better logo too.

I consider myself as a person that tends to think of crazy things. Crazy scenarios, crazy ideas, and crazy things period. Now it's time to share with the class. I'm feeling a little generous today, I guess. Maybe I just want to spread the nonsense. Here goes.

It would be something if people could freeze frame. Just jump in the air and hang there for a few seconds. It sounds funny right now, but it might be a different story to see something like that in person. I think I'd love to see that. . .

Yeah, yeah. I'm a little late. I saw Kill Bill :Volume 1 today. Great movie. Great soundtrack. It'll be even better when I buy it. This is a recurring theme. See the movie, buy the soundtrack. Oh and Quentin Tarantino has to be "off of his rocker".

Puddle of Mudd, at the House of Blues, tonight. It's one of the best concerts I've been to all year. They also happen to be one of many bands that are on my list of favorites. There's even a music link to them on the left side of my site. . .

If people weren't standing so close, I probably would've done a bit of jumping. I'm getting a little wild in my old age. *cough*

All I know now is that their new CD is on my list. They played the shit out of everything, in a good way. . .rocking out. Damn that was good. I can still hear the music playing. Play on.

What? Two, three page papers due tomorrow? Yes, they still have to be done. *sigh*

*Puddle of Mudd music continues to play in ears*

Since I printed a project for class today, all I can think about is the Epson Stylus Photo 2200. They have 2 at school. That's what I used, of course. If I had $699.00 to spend just like that, I know what I'd spend it on. I'm also mastering the use of masking in Photoshop. It's all over now. There's no point in trying to reel myself in and gain some composure. It's too late.

I'll be wearing my "Matrix Suit" tomorrow. That's what I like to call it. Black pants and a long black coat that comes to my ankles with a slit down the back. All of my "fancy" clothes or coats have that look. I'm not really tall, but I'm taller than your average person and clothes like that need vertical people to wear them.

*leans backwards as coat bottom blows around, while floating and dodging projectiles*

You'd swear that after a certain age, people would know better than to do certain things. Drawing a penis on the door of an elevator would be one of them.

I'll see about adding a picture a little later. Hopefully it won't be painted over by then.

Happy Birthday Sis! (Birthdays sure do come back fast now.)

Also.

I dropped off a roll of film with 24 exposures for 1 hour photo developing and only 7 pictures came out. 800 speed film is supposed to work in limited light. Fine. . .maybe it was a little too limited. Trial and error. Yeah, yeah. I get to reshoot with lights clamped all over the place now. The joys of taking pictures inside. Damn it's going to get hot.

Seeing someone pick a wedgie. *raises hand*

She was walking in front of me. Just as bold as she could be, she pulled at it as if it were just a casual head scratching. I guess her desperate time called for a desperate measure. Maybe something was being twisted or she had an itch. The surfaces she touched after that little pluck. . .I guess that's why one shouldn't think too much.

Every once in a while it's interesting to see a heated discussion ensue during class. Just as long as I don't have to run out of class, for my life, it's fine. Everybody has an opinion. *mutters something in opposition* That's funny because I can always pick out who's wrong. Of course there's always somebody who's wrong.

It's been a while since I've had what I consider to be a rather interesting dream, so here it is:

Me and somebody I don't know were having a rather intense conversation about McDonald's Chicken McNuggets. We talked about them being battered and not breaded like the rest of the chicken nuggets out there. There's something about that crispy batter crunch. For years I've been slightly intrigued that nobody else can top them. I suppose it doesn't help that they've been on my mind all week. Next week, I think I'll have to find time in my busy schedule and buy a Happy Meal after I leave school. Yes. I still buy Happy Meals. It's just enough to get full from which is rather weird since it's made for little kids. Plus it's the added bonus of getting a "toy". If you can call it a toy now.

I hear more and more emergency vehicles when I'm downtown, before and after school. That can only mean one thing, somebody ordered a Starbucks Malt Mocha Frappuccino and somebody else tried to get, as if they ordered it. It's like a fancy Wendy's Frosty, topped with whipped cream and chocolate. Mmm.

The time stamp of this post is what happens when you're working on an animation project, in a program that you've never used before. After something like this, of course you're a pro. It doesn't help that I had to leave the computer lab to buy headphones. I brought everything, but those. Before that, I sat there waiting for this girl to finish scanning because I didn't want to play my audio out loud. When I got back, then she left. Typical.

My stock portfolio is out of the minus now. (Stocks? Yes. Stocks. The stock game from grade 7 started it all.) It was a low amount anyway, but it's very easy for that thing to get into the minus. . . I also have plans to buy my old stock back. Diversifying my portfolio. Yeah, at some point.

There has to be some sort of illness involved when someone actually likes writing a paper every once in a while. It won't look special this time though. I'm restricted to Times New Roman, 10 or 12 point. How nice. A fancy newspaper font. I always used a different font than everybody else because I knew better and still do. I think someone once asked me what font I used. "Something you don't have. It doesn't matter. It's not Times New Roman." Fine. I didn't say it, but I'm sure I wanted to. I'd pick Courier over Times New Roman, any day. "12 point font. 10 if you want." I wonder what dumb ass used 18 point Courier for a paper and screwed it up for everybody else.

Watching someone try to work in a program when they missed the demo because they rarely come to class. . .

This is why teachers tell you that missing a class will put you behind. Those notes that you can take during the demo would've helped if you came to class too. Just a thought.

The drastic change in the weather can only mean one thing:
