so i just finished watching 2001: a space odyssey. what a crazy movie. it was hard for me to watch cause i was expecting more of a plot. i had read the book a while ago, and knew what HAL 9000 was all about. i got more out of reading the wikipedia article about it than watching the movie, but it is one of those culture things.

i got a washing machine today for $50, and it's relatively new, like 4 or 5 years old. still works, but i need to get the hoes for it. i would have gotten them today, but i was too lazy until it was too late, and then the flippin traffic in this town kept me from getting there on time.

if there is one thing about warrensburg, it is considerably underfunded. the uni is underfunded, the hwy 13 running thru town is in sad shape, the rental housing here is shitty. i got one of the better places, but it ain't perfect. i def saw some shit holes when i was looking around.

so this town charges for garbage. and the different companies don't recycle. it's $45 for 2 months! good grief. i'm sure there will be more things that will piss me off.

i've started setting up a budget on mint.com it is a pretty cool app. i think it will be useful for me to keep these things in mind. it keeps a realtime posting of your bank, loans, credit cards, IRAs, and other investments. then it helps you budget, and it recognizes what you've spent money on and then shows you how much of your budget you've used. neat.

well, i think i'll be working some overtime this week. the boss is due to have his baby this week. so i'll be getting things organized, i thinks.

create post

things i don't have to worry about living bout myself

wtf is that smell - s'mee

who's turn is it to do the dishes?

why aren't the dishes done?

do i have to find a clean bowl?

do i have to use a clean spoon?

do i really have to do dishes?

i can play my music loud i can play my music anytime i want i can play what ever song i want

bedtime is anytime i want it.-no one wakes me up early. except my neighbor on saturdays. that is band practice day. but i wear earplugs to bed cause i don't want to listen to the birds.

i can sing for myself

the lack of furniture is exactly how i want it arranged
the bathroom is always open.

all the strange people in the house are people i approve (d) of.

no drama

the only people i have to clean the house for are my parents. but i don't see them coming down too often.

the a/c and heat are on when and set to the temp i want. and i find out you changed it, pain will rain.

the phonebook only gets used to kill flies. and they eat the steroids from the cattle lots here.

my name is clark, but people call me fluffy

cabe, my elephant

so today i had to stay in the warrensburg cause my boss' wife might have a baby and i am on call, but i didn't get paid for that. so i'll have to talk to HR in the morning about this, cause i don't think that's policy.

RHCP is getting back together in october. my brother should be happy. i like them, but not as much as he does.

obama is thinking about dropping the public option from the health care bill. i haven't read it, and neither have you, but personally, i want to help the people w/o ins.

went for a bike ride. this is a nice place to ride the bike. the hills are easy and small. and it doesn't take long to get out of the town. and there is no traffic. but my knee still doesn't like that.

made no bake cookies, which are delish. i mean it's a freakin cookie! who doesn't like cookies in their mouth. if you do, you need to get your mouth checked out cause i think you might have moths.

well, i'm continuing my very slow learning of python. i downloaded v.2.6.1 and called the math class (idk if that's what it's called, but that's what i'm calling it) and figured out how to do simple math problems. i'm sure there is an easier way, but i did it my way cause i don't know what the errors are saying.

also practiced the piano. again, very slow at that. not like during school. i am going to learn debussy's clair de lune this semester. it's not too hard, kinda long. i just need to find some internal drive to get it done. it's a pretty song, maybe to impress le girl someday, no? ya, prolly no.

i'm downloading the internet as we speak. i bet you didn't know it's only about 22 GB of stuff. surprising, i know. but as soon as i'm done, me and some other people will be able to have 22 GB of stuff on our harddrives.

i feel that i no longer exist in physical form, i only exist on the internet. it's how i do.

but on the other hand, i think i'm going down to nashville on labor day. and do the labor day thing. i don't know what that means, but i'm going to do it. K? K.

watched some TED. something about memes, another on how our facts we know about AIDs in Africa are prolly wrong. like not 25 million people dying, lower. Uganda had a successful campaign against AIDs cause coffee dropped in prices. it's not correlated with poverty. one other thing, but i don't remember what it was. something about education maybe?

i bring 40 hours of great fun to work. can you? someday i'll be a winner.

buffalo to the 7th power

flies want to die. it's the only reason they exist.

i like to pretend like i'm musically gifted, but i'm not. i think i'm better than i really am.

so had this auction the other day. the band shows up late, won't let me set up his drum kit, i'm like wft?!! do you know how many drum kits i've set up? worth 1000s more than yours. and it is actually in tune? yah, i didn't think so. none of the instruments i heard tuned before they played. omg.

found a laudromat, so i did the laundry. it cost me $7 to do it. so i need to find myself a used on one the craigslist. ya know ya know.

mom's birthday on friday. she is 49. i write this down for more of my own gain because that way i'll remember. she was born in 60.

man, there isn't much to do in this town. i can see why people get married so young!! maybe if people spent more time doing other things besides each other, it wouldn't be such a hick place.

i got the sxsw showcasing artists from 2008-2005. another 8 gigs of music i haven't heard, so it'll take me prolly until christmas to get through it all.

i think i'm going to go back to nashville for labor day. if everything works out. i couldn't go home this weekend cause my boss' wife is expecting and i could be called in anytime on sunday. but i don't get paid for being on call. is that legal?

yogurt, the word gurt, where did you come from? i mean seriously. did a musical theatre major at belmont decide that gur need someway to spit on other people? evaluate your life.

missing my people in the nashville! espcially anyone who is reading this.
