dear god i am so sick of urban explorers and uer and the database.
the wheel almost fell off my car. my dad put my snow tires on last saturday and they sounded funny, but i ignored it because they sound funny to begin with – just louder than the regular tires. but then it kept getting worse – a sound like something was rubbing/hitting something else as the tire spun. it was super loud when i went to the grocery store today so i detoured to home to tell my dad. he test drove it, and looked, and he forgot to tighten the lug nuts all the way on one wheel. super. that would have been great to have the wheel come off.
must remember to buy rubber gloves for transfig. and bandaids.
what else what else…
my new green contacts finally arrived, and along with them, they sent me chocolate haha. anyway. they are very green. i think they make me look demented. more than the blue ones did. but i like em. they’re so obviously fake it’s amusing.
hair cut tomorrow, i need new jeans cuz my pirate jeans have a hole in the ass. i guess they officially become urbex pants now. it’ll be ok to get them covered in bird crap at transfig thurs. hair dying tomorrow night as well.
i finished reading A Clockwork Orange. it got much easier to read with all the strange words when you just ignore them. and eventually you read them so many times that you sorta know what it’s supposed to say. all in all the movie followed the book pretty well. but wow that end chapter, that was in the UK versions and left out of the US ones for a long time…it actually almost ruins it. just…not expected, doesn’t fit, and almost seems like a cop out. on the other hand, it does make a statement that everything is just a phase…i am now reading Rat Scabies and the Holy Grail. i don’t know how i found it, i think the title just sounded interesting when searching someone’s bookmooch list. rat scabies is a drummer of one of the first london punk bands, and the story is about him and his neighbor trying to find the holy grail. i’ve only read one chapter and it’s already quite amusing and fun. i mooched all these “classics” off of bookmooch, books that have been banned, famous books that as an educated and intelligent person, i feel like i should read…but i really have no interest in doing so. these fun little novels are much more appealing than what i expect “classics” to be. i think it’s because of how much english classes in school ruin good books, i fear reading things that are taught in school. scarlet letter – great book. really liked it, but then i think about how much my 11th grade english teacher made us read in to it and find hidden meanings and it just wasn’t fun. same with a tale of two cities. i love that book now. but i hated it in 10th grade. i’m just scared of the classics cuz in my head classic=boring.
OH…anyone want to go to toronto vs buffalo next wednesday at HSBC? because we can’t get rid of the damn tickets. this was definitely NOT a game we thought we’d have trouble selling the tickets to, but we got no bids on ebay, nothing through craigslist or postaroo, and most people at work have to work next wed – that day being our 2nd busiest day of the year and all. if anyone knows someone interested, section 321 row 10 seats 21 and 22 – $150.
