The Long Road Tragedy Is Life |
Friday, February 28 David and Sarah are here right now... cuddling on the couch watching a really crappy vampire movie... they even agree to that fact and are still sitting there... I'm confused... spend valuable time watching crap while you could be out with your fiance... oh well... not my problem... We get to go ride horses again tomorrow... that will be fun... assuming the weather doesn't interfere of course.... I wanna see shamrock again... then we might go down to see sharleen or something like that... a little wierd for her though... be like here look this is my best friend from freshman year... show these fine people what a great person you are shar... maybe not such a good idea... they'd get to see Jerry again of course... I need to see him again too... been a while... I talk in little tiny phrases now... getting a little caried away with the elipses... tis fun though... one of the secrets to blogging is to find something that you do and noone else does... mine are the elipses and the uncited really long quotesI know it isn't really something very noticable or that really completely distinguishes me but it's still mine dangit... ok I'm done now... gbye posted by Joel | 9:52 PM Thursday, February 27 as for you engaged people... it's not that I didn't blog about it cause It's not as important.... it's just that you've covered it all already posted by Joel | 9:38 PM So yeah... since I actually blogged last I have been out of state... had 4 of my best friends get "unofficially engaged" to each other... finally finished Krystal's valentines day thingy (I blame technical difficulties).... and had my best friend from freshman year suddenly reappear in my life... oh and Truxton as well... found out that Daniel was arrested for 2 counts of grand theft auto.... Anyway... for those of you who don't know Sharleen came back... I've been missing her since the summer after freshman year... Hopefully I'll get to see her soon... that'd be great.... anyway... she forgot my hat at her moms house... The hat I got from New Zealand... she heacka ganked it and took it with her across the country... I bet It smells like her baby or something by now but it would still be nice to have it back... best hat I ever bought... anyway... Truxton called as well... he's back in his house and even has a job now...he sounds repentant too... I'll have to go see him.... I think I'll tell him what I've been thinking when I do too... It kinda messes up the stories when you tell them in bulk like this... Who cares... bye now posted by Joel | 9:37 PM Wednesday, February 26 I have a lot to blog...

In order to die: in order to sleep; No more; and by a sleep for us legends terminate the dear grief and the thousand normal shocks that the meat inheritance is, ' tis consummation a Devoutly wish ' D to be on on. In order to die, in order to sleep; In order to sleep: by chance at the dream: ay there are the chafing strips; For in this sleep of the death, which dreams can come, if we smeared except this deadly rolling up, must us the break give: there is the respect, which makes the misfortune of the so long life; For who the whips and it despises from the time became the evil of the eliminator, proud humans supports contumely, the pain of the despised love, the law holds the insolence of the office and when it throws this patient earnings/services of the unworthy seizing could be quietus with a naked bodkin to make? from who fardels support for more grogner and under a tired life to sweat, but that one the fear of something after death of having the will embarasse and us rather stimuli to support these errors us undiscover'land the D, which does not turn of bourn a traveler, that the fly at others that we know? Thus the conscience makes all loose by us; And the native tonality of the resolution is crimping song the o ' it with the pale cast iron thoughts and the enterprises of the large Markes and the time with this respect, that their rivers revs up in such a way, and loses the tender name maintained by action you!

Grab a Mag-lite and hope for the best? -Tom I spent like 24 hours with that kid so far this weekend.... that's a LOT of time.... it seemed to get to Jo Jo by the time we left his house... Lacey was having a hard time as well... seems that even our group is subject to time fostered differences... oh well.. we had a blast at the basketball game... I tried to play Melissa's clarinet... it's funny how you can forget every single thing you knew in 2 years time... oh well.. I was never very good at it anyway... should try to start learning the trumpet... That would be cool... I think I can do it a lot better cause I won't have to deal with my fingers being too fat... at least I hope so... anyway I've gotta go wash my car now... bye posted by Joel | 1:16 PM Thursday, February 6 I showed up at Lacey's house riding with the lemony substance of doom today... for those of you who don't know what that is it's better that you don't... you'll just get eaten when it comes for you and not have to live in fear waiting for that day... anyway... we went from there to the hong kong restaurant to eat good Chinese food before the concert.. Rob and Melissa were both supposed to show up to that.... but they didn't.. I'm kinda worried about that...anyway... had good war won ton soup... cost me all the money I had for the rest of the week... as I begin to get low on gas... at least I'll have a good lunch tomorow.. that is if I don't die from the toxins hidden in the band fridge... anyway.. went to concert.. watched uber performance... quite proud of Lacey and jo jo... found out that jo jo actually is pretty buff... felt sorry for the soloist whose name I can't think of at the moment... then came home... good day... still want to know what new bad thing happened to reber.. oh well goodnight posted by Joel | 10:26 PM I was gonna go into Lingren's class today and ruin his self esteem.... It was gonna be funny... I have a feeling he might not be too cool about that though.. and I'd burst out laughing before I got it all said anyway... oh well... I'll just go slash Reber's tires instead... posted by Joel | 2:31 PM Wednesday, February 5 he dreamed about licking my eyeball?-Sarah... I haven't hung out with them in a fairly large amount of time... it was rather cool to share grease covered cow patties with them... I'm being overly heath Conscious.. I can't friggin figure out how to spell that word for the life of me... anyway.. they are quite entertaining people.. it sounds almost like I'm talking about test subjects the way I'm talking about them right now doesn't it... that's creepy... anyway goodnight posted by Joel | 10:30 PM Today has been fairly weird... I worked like a lot in every class but all I have for homework is the physics stuff that I didn't finish last night... Rather annoying that stuff is... I'm stuck in a room with a bunch of freshmen... I don't like them... they're loud and obnoxious and whiney... a lot like us I guess.... but far worse of course... they all seem far too tall to be freshmen too... I guess they might be sophomores... but I know one of them is a freshman... Tabatha's little sister... almost as bad as the ice witch herself... I have this weird thing where I give girls way more chances to be liked then I do guys... It might be called sexist I guess but It's not that I'm meaner to one or anything I just give one group more chances then they probably deserve... but reguardless bye now posted by Joel | 3:03 PM Tuesday, February 4 I created a new blog today... It was quite interesting... all the crap that I don't say cause certain people are reading this is going there... I had a rather extensive post for it today too... anyway... I hugged Lacey this morning and everybody stared at me like I was insane... Jo Jo kinda looked like he expected me to explain myself at that moment too.. It was actually fairly amusing.. I should (seemingly) randomly hug people all the time.. I would too if I could expect to recieve looks like that... well maybe not but still.. I'm gonna try to call Krystal now so bye posted by Joel | 10:43 PM I'm doing a virtual lab in Physics and it totally doesn't make any sense to me.... We watch a piston go back and forth and a wheel turn and watch unreadably fast moving numbers and try to decifer them... I am now officially not liking this laptop... well not the laptop but when we have to use it... I'm going now... time for English... yayyyyy posted by Joel | 11:24 AM Monday, February 3 we have now officially made every single person in the group depressed... even Lacey... though it sounds like that's not as hard as we all think it is... just hard to get her to show it... you're getting a hug when I see you tomorrow morning kid... and I'm gonna steal your name for everyone else specifically for you.. I think that may have been the closest I've ever been to crying about a blog... not saying much but still... that was very sad... anyway... I'm gonna go do my government homework and then go to bed... bed... I need sleep.... that means I;m going to get off now..... really I am... I swear... I had to weedeat like everywhere today... It sucked... got my brand new jeans all grass stained... I've finally got some work pants again I guess... oh well... I just caught Mork being a kitten again.. he was all playful and stuff then he noticed I was watching him and he stopped... "No I wasn't playing in that bag... I don't know what you're talking about." Yes folks that officially signals time for bed when I start blogging about Mork... 'night posted by Joel | 10:38 PM Sunday, February 2 I got on a horse yesterday... 2 of them actually... it was very much so fun... Shamrock is like the coolest horse ever.. and he likes me more then he like mellissa now... I'm uber horse whisperer... one of the other horses wanted to bite my face off though so it appears my talent only works for a few... Mr. Westgate proposed that he get a shetland pony because while the apartment rules say no dogs they say nothing of equestrian pets... I would so never leave that house if he did that...now we just need to raise the money to buy one and then house train it... and find some local newspaper to donate a lot of papers to us... anyway that's all for now.. bye You may talk of gin and beer When you're stationed way out here An' you're sent to penny fights an' Aldershot it But when it comes to slaughter You will do your work for water An' you'll lick the bloomin' boots of him that's got it Now in Inja's sunny climb Where I used to spend my time Servin' her Majesty the Queen Of all the black faced crew The finest man I knew Was a regimental beasti, Gunga Din The uniform he wore Was nothin' much before An' rather less than half of that behind But a piece of twisty rag An' a goatskin water bag Was all the field equipment he could find When a sweatin' troop train lay In a sidin' through the day Where the heat would make you bloomin' eyebrows crawl We shouted, "Harry By" Till our throats were bricky-dry Then wopped him 'cause he couldn't serve us all He would dot an' carry one Till the longest day was done An' never seemed to know the use of fear If we charged or broke or cut You could bet your bloomin' nut He'd be waitin' fifty paces right flank rear With his mussick on his back He would skip to our attack An' watch us till the bugles made"Retire" An' for all his dirty hide He was white, clear white inside When he went to tend the wounded under fire It was Din, Din, Din With the bullets kickin' dust spots on the green And when the cartridges ran out You could hear the front files shout "Send ammunition mules, and Gunga Din" I shan't forget the night When I fell behind the fight With a bullet where my belt plate should a' been I was chokin' mad with thirst An' the man that spied me first Was our good old grinnin', gruntin' Gunga Din He lifted up my head An' he plugged me where I bled An' he gave me half a pint of water green It was crawlin' and it stunk But of all the drinks I've drunk I'm most grateful to the one from Gunga Din He carried me away To where a dooli lay An' a bullet came and drilled the beggar clean He carried me inside An' just before he died "I hope you like your drink" said Gunga Din So I'll meet him later on In the place where he has gone Where it's always double drill and no canteen He'll be squattin' on the coals Givin' drinks to poor damned souls I'll catch a swig in hell from Gunga Din It was Din, Din, Din You Lazarushian-leather Gunga Din Tho' I've belted you an' flayed you By the livin' God that made you Your a better man than I am, Gunga Din posted by Joel | 12:27 PM I saw a shooting star for the first time in my life tonight... you know what the sucky part is.... It was prolly a piece of the shuttle... with my luck it was the part holding the people.... life went on today though... still hasn't set in at all for me that 7 of the most talented people on earth died today... just because some stupid paneling failure or the like... prolly never will but such is life... nobody will really care unless they were somehow involved or knew anyone involved... what about the rest of us... and why does it really matter... people who have accomplished far more service for others will die tonight too... many more than seven.. are they not as important because they weren't riding a multi billion dollar vehicle... or is it the big story that counts... is the media really that powerful? I hope not.. if they are we're all screwed posted by Joel | 12:50 AM |
