a new record even for me”
how long has it been now? a month and a half? lordy. i’ve been meaning to come back around and start posting again for a few weeks, but i’ve been busy as SHIT.
first, the computer. seems my thoughts were right. after testing and trying to diagnose all kinds of different stuff, turns out it was my motherboard. so, i went out and bought a new board and chip, and i’m running a monster now. it’s an athalon 2000+, with 256 DDR ram and 160 gb of hard drive space (well over half of which is now consumed with shns and videos.) i’ll post the pictures of me trashing the old gateway piece of crap.
oh yeah. did i mention my ‘rents finally hooked up the DSL? its niiiiice… and like everyone said, you folks on dialup don’t know what you’re missing. so i’ve been on a massive download spree. doesn’t really matter what it is anymore, just so long as i’m downloading. shns, videos, stuff for bands i dont even like. doesn’t matter. i just finished downloading all of the dave and tim tour to-date.
spike’s doing well. he’s getting really friendly and he’s even been coming out during the day lately. i’ll try to get some pictures up, and once i get some more free time, i’ll even finish the photo galleries that i’ve been promising for so long. lauren even has a program that might make my life easier, so ill have to harass her for it again. 
i finally set up my fish tank… i’ll see if i can get some good pictures, but it’s hard to do through glass and water. i’ve got three fish in it that i got from my grandma. they were my uncles, and he died about 2 years ago… she’s been feeding them since, but doesn’t really know how to care for them, so i took over the tank and put it in my room.
[start soapbox rant]
…and don’t get me started on this “war.” don’t get me wrong, i don’t consider myself pro-war. i’m never pro-violence. however, i can see why this guy and his government need to go. i’m kind of on the fence about the whole thing.
HOWEVER. if you are anti-war? that’s fine. if you want to protest? go for it. do it all you want. but don’t do stupid shit like preach anti-violence , and then riot and fuck stuff up. that’s stupid.
protest and boycott whatever you want, but don’t fuck your fellow citizens in the process.
you know what else is stupid? duct taping yourself to other protesters and blocking busy intersections and off-ramps. is that supposed to prove something? how does that really have anything to do with protesting the war? it DOESN’T. it’s STUPID. it just makes you look like a giant ASSHOLE. don’t block MY freeway, buddy, you’ll be a god damned hood ornament.
[end soapbox rant]
anyhow, i think that’s all i’ve got for now. i’ll make sure to post more often for those of you that actually still come by and check.
