"sure, the pointy end goes in the other man"

such words of wisdom from alejandro murrieta portrayed by antonio banderas in the mask of zorro. (or maybe the title of the movie was slightly different..?? in ant case...) but yea, i was watchin zorro last night, and that is one of the greatest lines in the movie.
old zorro: "do you know how to use that thing?"
alejandro: "sure, the pointy end goes in the other man."


so here i am. i've been on the internet a grand total of 4 hours; ever since i woke up this afternoon. this goes to show you how incredibly boring my life is. all my friends are at work, or doing something else. i hardly bother asking if anyone can do anything anymore, as 9 chances outta 10 it's no. and i'm not an optimist, so you don't see me thinking "9 outta 10, then there's still a chance!" bleah, like i'd ever say something as cheesy as that. no offense to you optimists of the world. we still need you to counterbalance we pessimists of the world. is the glass half-empty of half-full?

ok, i'd like to salute someone new today. today's 'person of the moment' is kikyo from inuyasha.

here we have kikyo. kikyo really gets the short end of the stick when it comes to inuyasha fans. yea, there are loyal fans out there, but she gets so much bashing from everybody else. kikyo dies in the first episode of inuaysha, but then is brought back from the dead in a body made from gravesoil and her ashes in a magic kiln. many people hate kikyo because of her acts of retribution towards the living. she can't help it that she's dead. she wanted to stay dead, but was forced back into life without even truly being alive again. so of course she's mad at everybody else. they have what she wants. now that she is alive again, she'd like to keep it that way. it's all human nature. why does she try to kill kagome? duh, she's jealous. why does she try to kill inuyasha? because she wants to be with him in a place where she knows she truly belongs: death. i'd like to credit kikyo for being the tough person she is. she is a master archer, a powerful priestess, and doesn't let anyone push her around. she isn't evil, just misunderstood. hat's off to kikyo, the obviously stronger past version of herself (kagome's her reincarnation).

ok, well, there's that. i was really hoping that my ranma 1/2 boxset would come today, but it seems it hasn't. maybe i'll go to the mall later, just for something to do. i'd rent a movie, but i dunno what i'd rent, and it isn't as much fun watching it alone. some friday night this turned out to be. at least i got to sleep in. o and watch, i'll go downstairs later and find all these missed calls of people who wanted to do something today, but now it's too late; just my luck.

here's where i'm gonna make a plug for eric's webcomic, ninja academy. it seems alot like the anime series naruto, which is what it was inspired from (even though i haven't seen naruto, somehow i know this).

back to the insatiable boredom with me. internet bumper sticker of the day:

5 day weekend!!!

o ya, that's right, starting tomorrow i have a 5 day weekend. god it'll be so nice. but today's gonna be a loooong day, it was a late start, yea, but i was feeling sick all last night and haven't eaten anything but a malted milk shake in the last 24 hours (i had lost my appetite.) hopefully my ranma 1/2 season one dvd boxset will arrive in the mail either today or tomorrow. and hopefully i'll be abloe to go out somewhere tomorrow night. why? becuase i really need to get out more. if i have ranma it won't be so bad if i can't though.

well, i'm gonna go work on my website now.... so, i'll just leave with some choice parting words:

Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

i hate being sick

yea, i feel like shit today. headache, stomachache, chills, and general overall feeling shitty-ness.

yea, just thought i'd share that with ya. and here's one more thing to add to the sharing. i found it a while ago at Engrish.com, and personally think it's one of the funniest things to see out there. so check it out: hope you like irony.

so it's been a pretty boring morning. i went cruisin for bumper stickers on IBS earlier and found some more good ones. not the one i was lookin for tho. i wanted to find one with the evil monkey from chris griffin's closet on it. i'm sure i saw one like that out there before.

last night was senior night at the basketball game, so all the band, basketball, pom, and cheer seniors were aknowledged. last one too, that's such a nice thought.




just felt like stickin that there. and since my head hurts too much to think of anything else to say, this is where i bid you farewell.

o what a slacker am i

yes, yes, have no fear my imaginary audience, i am indeed back from my period of absence. it was actually a rather busy week for me. key words here are "busy for me" meaning they probably wouldn't be considered busy to somebody else. i had to work monday and thursday, i had to do band shit wednesday and friday, and saturday was spent getting ready for the formal dinner thing that jessie and i always go to (this year kristy, suzy, tim, jessie, and i went. sarah couldn't get off work). tuesday was my only break day and i think that mighta been the night i spend at the mall with my mom getting our new cell phones. i can't remember how long i've had it. damn my sense of time sucks.

yay! i'm going to green day in may (heh, dr. suess moment there). which is gonna be awesome! hopefully i'll be able to find jessie and tim and kristy and suzy, or else it'll be me, my lil' brother matt and his best friend cody. not that they're brats or anything, but it'd be more fun if i were to hang out with people closer to my age (in a 1 year radius rather than 3).

i watched little nicky last night. it was hilarious. i haven't laughed at a movie so much in years. it was the coke-tastes-like-pepsi thing that really got me.

well, i have no time to salute anyone today, as there's nobody a-talkin online and i don't have anyone in mind to salute. so later!

oodles of noodles and music too (what joy)

yea, that's the catch-phrase for the school band's spaghetti dinner that i was just at (except the "what joy" part, that's my own personal touch). soooo, yea, that's all i've done all evening, and now i am once again without anything to do. ummmmmmmm......... yea, as you can clearly see, i am also without anything to say, so let's just stop this while we're ahead, shall we?

goddamn it!

i just deleted this entire huge couple of paragraphs that i was about to put in this post! it started out with my saying it was just one of those days (it sure as hell is now") and how i accidentally went to fourth period when it was third. then i was talking about how mr. sloup, my statistic teacher wrote something funny on my unfinished (but turned in anyway) homework. i had stopped at "31. a)" and he continued on for me, saying "and then a meteorite struck and i was forced to spend the rest of my time rebuilding and looking for survivors."

after that, i decided to have a new "person of the moment" (i really gotta come up with a catchier name than that), and decided to salute ryuunosuke fujinami of urusei yatsura. and now i'm gonna have to type out her info. out all over again!!!

anyway, this is ryuu. she's prolly my favorite u.y. character. she's the very definition of 'tomboy' but wants more than anything to be a regular girly girl. sadly enough, her personality just won't allow it. ryuunosuke puts up with constant brawling with her father, his insisting she's a boy, a fanclub of underclassmen girls, and all the boys in her class trying to grope her during gym (she has to be in the boy's gym class). she takes it all in, uh, stride, and kicks the guys' asses any time the touch her (or try to). there is only one person who can beat ryuu, and that's her cross-dressing fiancee nagisa. anyway, props to ryuunosuke fujinami of tomobiki-cho. "i'm a chick dammit!"

happy corporate-endorsed love-themed merchandising day!

can't you just feel the forced smiles all around?! there is pressure in the air all right! "what do i get her?!" "what do i get him?!?!" o, how it all makes me laugh!! why not escape the society-enduced pressure of dating and giving your date a gift by simple not giving a damn? it works absolutely wonderfully for me!

i was visiting this forum about two minutes ago that my good friend joe showed me (and posts at). it had a anti-valentine's day post (like all good forums do at this time of year) that started out with someone talking about how valentine's day is the one holiday guarenteed to make a significant amount of people miserable and unhappy. this is very true, but you just can't let it get to you.

and then there's the people who hate valentine's day and condemn those those celebrate it. now that's just wrong. just because you don't like something doesn't mean that everyone doesn't. now i'm a firm believer in making fun of people, but i'm not going to ridicule people for celebrating a well-known holiday. it's just what they do, and as my motto for today goes, i just don't give a damn (either way).

ummmm..... that's all for now. internet bumper sticker of the day:

okidoky

well, this is gonna be short, as i don't have much to say, and i feel like getting off the computer, but i just had to add this.

i shoulda thought of this friday... but anyway, i found a picture of inaba, who has been saluted as person of the moment, and i thought it might be nice (or, um, something......) to let all you non-exisitant readers see what inaba looks like. so, well, here he is:

is it just me, or does time move slower when you have alot to do?

not that i have a whole lot to do, i just thought i'd post that for the helluvit. so yea, i'm at school again (oh my god! anne's at school!) which i haven't been all week, save for wednesday. missing school is nice while you're missing it, but it sucks ass when you get back. it also sucks when you miss it several days in a row and become bored outta your mind.

i'd like to start something new, though i have no idea how well i'll be able to keep this one up. i'd like to salute inaba as 'person of the moment.' yea, i know he's not a real person, but i'm gonna salute him anyway. inaba is a strange guy who goes around in a bunny suit. he's really out there (needless to say). inaba comes from the comic urusei yatsura written and drawn by my favorite comic artist, rumiko takahashi. inaba is often seen lying unconscious in the streets of tomobiki-cho. i've gotta say, inaba is probably the best catch outta all of the urusei yatsura guys. this can be arguable, as tsubame, ryuunosuke, mendo, and rei would seem like nice enough guys. but here's my resoning: well, i'll start with ataru (even though he's not on the list), ataru is the worst skirt-chaser the world has ever seen. end of story. next is mendo. shutaro mendo is rich and would seem honorable. but he is just as bad as ataru, only in a much more discreet way. that and he's a huge claustophobe. to quote him "it's cramped! it's dark! i'm scared!!" next is tsubame: you don't see much of tsubame. he's the school nurse's fiancee, and from what i can tell, he's a lil' clueless. next is rei; rei's gotta be the most handsome guy in the universe (yes, universe, he lives on the oni planet), that is until you see him in his tiger-cow form. talk about creepy. that and he's got a negative i.q. lastly, ryuunosuke. ryuunosuke is good-looking, the best martial artist at tomobiki high, and very honorable. problem: ryuunosuke's a girl. her father wanted a boy so bad he raised her as a boy, insists she's a boy, and foils every attempt she makes at getting a bra (or any other feminine clothing for that matter). so that mean's she has to wrap up her chest, making her look like a boy (she's got short hair). she looks feminine enough to me, but at first glance anybody would think she's a guy. she even wears the guy's school uniforms. you could also argue in nagisa. nagisa's a great guy, if you ignore the whole cross-dressing used to be a ghost part. nagisa is ryuunosuke's counter-part. his father raised him as a girl. and the two are engaged (awww...) they were made for eachother. ANYWAY (getting waaaay off topic here) that's why inaba's the best catch in the series. though the rabbit suit is still really weird..... but at least he's got a cool job, he works for the fate production bureau. hat's off to inaba of the fate prodution bureau!

ok, that's enough about inaba (even though more of that paragraph is about urusei yatsura...) maybe next time i'll salute a real person, but probably not. fictional characters are just so much more fun!

now i'd like to diss on ms. rosenberg for a while. she's our school's "media specialist" or whatever. she's just the librarian. honestly, she can be sooooo stupid. she has it out for some people. and her stupid rules! "four people to a table, you HAVE to study (or look like you're studying heheheh...)" with some people she doesn't seem to give a damn, but with others she will find the littlest thing they're doing wrong. honestly!

ummm, i think that's all for now.

Sticky Site of the Moment - InternetBumperStickers.com

Sticky Site of the Moment - InternetBumperStickers.com

wow! somebody really did read my blog... and now, apparently, i'm the sticky site of the moment on InternetBumperStickers.com. the summary of my blog is hilarious, and so true! And thanks to JJ (whoever you are) for submitting my blog! o, and i'd say that this calls for a bumper sticker. i haven't put one up in a while (because the image host is being a pain in the ass)



and who doesn't love johnny depp? especially in pirates of the caribbean, awesome movie. yea, joe couldn't believe that someone actually read my blog, what wonderful faith my friends have in my entertainment skills. i guess after three and a half years you'd get sick of hearing me talk, but i hope not...

yea, and i figure i'll make a plug for my website right about now, just in case somebody really is here....



and back to the nothingness... oooo, well, hmm, lets see... another basketball game on friday, maybe we'll go get valentino's again after, that'd be nice... o, and for all you lucky non-residents of nebraska, valentino's is a local (state-wide) pizza/italian eatery chain. sometimes valentino's comes to cater food at our school too, but it's always better fresh, and by the time it gets to school, it's not at it's freshest. (and that would be why i don't eat when fazoli's caters; they're just not good after a 10-minute drive... and half-hour long lunch a....)

ok, and i'd just like to clarify that my other piercing is on my ear lobe. when i saw that in my sitcky-site summary i got confused and thought they meant a hard-core piercing.... no i'm kinda chicken about doing one of those.... and some of them just seem like they'd be uncomfotable..... like sarah's double belly-button piercing... i could never do that, it'd feel weird...

ummm.... my mom wants to check her email now, and i've been online since two-something this afternoon, so i'm gonna go play video games for a while.

wow, my blog is known! (sorta) thanks to eric for that one!

now on with my endless ramblings that chances are nobody's gonna read anyway (even though eric obviously read some of this at one point... thanks again!). so the last few days i've been home sick. joy. monday and tuesday i was out, i went to school on wednesday, but today i'm at home again. turns out i just have a nasty cold virus, how exciting.

...

i forgot what i was gonna say... o well, i'll end here, and be back in an hour after i remember (maybe.)

it's 1:30 am

yes, it's one in the morning, and here i am, on the internet, looking for something to occupy my time. i'm starting to get bored, as there's nobody on IM to talk to, but who would be? strangely enough there are actually several people online, but nobody's talking to me. not that that's much of a surprise, only two or three people talk to me via IM on a regular basis.

so, in conclusion, here i am! talking to myself through the pretext of posting shit for people to read. (but since nobody reads it, i'm talking to myself)

in the next few minutes i'll probably regress to my gamecube and play harvest moon for another few hours. before i trekked upstairs to get on the internet shortly after midnight, i had been playing harvest moon since i got home from work at quarter after nine. (no, i didn't speed, i left work a few minutes early)

i think i'm catching a cold. i blame this on joe, he's been saying he hasn't been feeling totally up to par the last couple days, so i'm blaming him if i get sick. why? because i can. nobody's gonna argue with me anyway, because nobody's gonna read that.

boy, o boy, valentines day is a mere eight days away. can't you just smell the excitement here? yea, didn't think so. i really don't like valentines day all that much. it's not because i'm being a whiner and saying i hate it because i never get anything, on the contrary i don't want anything to begin with. in fact, when i do get something, it sends me on a guilt trip. (not the lil box-of-20 valentines with teh cartoon characters on them or a "fun" size bag of candy, i'm talking about actual valentines gifts, flowers, whatever) that and i can never get a guy anything for valentines day anyway (not that i have to worry about that currently, thank god) they're so damn hard to buy for. to sum it all up: valentine's day is stupid.

ok, well, i'm running out of things to talk to myself about, imagining that i'm talking to other people but really just kidding myself, SO i'm gonna go farm some more. my brother was watching me play and kept telling me that i abused my chickens and my wife and my kid and that my goat was making a weird noise b/c she was in heat. yea, well, my brother's just like that, so i ignored him for the most part.

is this thing on?

ok, well, the reason i haven't posted in a while is, duh, because nobody's reading this anyway. i really suck at advertising. if you (what am i talking about, there isn't any "you" it's just me talking to my computer) haven't seen eric's "the internet entity known as white" post, you should. it's hilarious. umm, so just click on the "eric's blog" link over to the left side of the screen there. no, not that- yes! that one!

o yea, i thought i'd mention my boredom factor right now. it's rather high, but nothing i'm not used to. last night i was having more ladybug problems. one rudely awoke me when it flew up my nose. i have never experienced something more disgusting as that. it was traumatizing. (no, really, it was)

i feel like shopping again, but i don't know what to buy. i want to buy the season one ranma 1/2 boxset, but i can't find it at either of the local suncoasts. i could order online, but i'm too lazy at the moment.

yesterday i kept thinking it was friday. it was a bitter disappointment when it finally sunk in that it was the very opposite of friday. then i had to get up and come here again. i can't wait to graduate. at least i don't have to work at all after school this week. this can be a bad thing, though, too. now i have more free time to acquire boredom.

ok, well, i'm gonna go be bored doing something else. adios!

no bumper sticker today, the image hosts are being bitches.
