It's Only Noon And I'm Having The Day From Hell
Warning: If you are in any way offended by people talking shit about God then you should cover your virgin eyes right now.
Are you there God? Its me...
Dear God, Vishnu, Jeebus, whoever is up there,
I hope you are sitting on a heavenly couch with John Lennon and Hitler watching the replay of my day, laughing at it like its an episode of Funniest Home Videos. Maybe you even have one of those recently dead comedians up there doing funny voices like Bob Sagget used to do. I hope you are having just one huge reverberating laugh that people think is thunder. I hope so because I don't think its funny. You can't give a guy one shitty situation after another on a day when he's had one hour of sleep without him snapping. It's just not cool. I understand that I am the cause of my own problems. I have never expected you or anyone else to fix them for me either. Hell, half the time i don't even know whether you exist. But if you do exist, the least you could do is delay some of the repercussions of my mistakes so that they don't happen on the day I feel like laying my legs in front of a moving steam roller to take my mind off the pain in my head. Thats the least you could do, you bastard.
What I don't understand is: why can't I be the guy who drops his wallet and some nice person behind him sees it and tells him that he dropped his wallet. Why can't I be that guy? Why am I the guy who drops his wallet somewhere, can't figure when it was the last time he had it with him, and he never sees it again? Why am I that guy? In fact, why have I been that guy over and over again in my life? Can you answer me that? No you can't. Because whoever you are, if you are at all, you are a powerfull all-knowing god who doesn't have to explain himself to little shits like me. Well laugh it up. I'll see you up there someday then maybe we can have a little chat and you can explain to me what it all meant.
"Sometimes I feel like God is teasing me just like he teased Moses in the desert."

OK OK I'll Update
"So much to say. Words don't come out right." A lot of strange things have been going on. Nothing special in the movie that is my life but a lot to the supporting actors. I hear a lot of good things about the new Thursday album. If barnes and noble would learn to ship things faster, maybe I would have somthing good to say about it by now. Oh well I'll mention it as soon as I get it.
Another Thing I Like About Rain
Yeah its still raining buckets around here. I love it. I forgot to mention in my previous list that I like how freaked out people get about rain. I'm sitting in class and suddenly you hear thunder and raindrops. Of course everyone turns their head at the same time to look out the window. And then when we get out of class they are all huddled in the hall right in front of the exit. Why can't they go outside? Its not evil spirits its just rain. Rain! Fine, try and kill it. Its like they are afraid that its going to hurt them (admittedly walking in the rain would make them suceptible to colds like I was). One of these days I am going to sit there and watch to see how long they are willing to wait. I'll be sure to report my findings here.
Geeky Things I'm Into
Cartoons. Watch Duck Dodgers, Family Guy, and Futurama and you will be into them too. Family Guy is so popular that now a movie is being made. Apparently there are plenty of geeks out there.

soo-do in-tu-lek-shu-al
It's been a long time since I have written a music review for this site. And there have been a good number of cds I wanted to tell you guys about. For example, you should pick up the following cds if your listening tastes are like mine: NOFX ~ The War On Errorism, The Mars Volta ~ De-loused In The Comatorium, and Cafe Tacuba ~ Cuatro Caminos. Thats right. That last one is in spanish. I know what you are thinking. More bullshit from the same guy who said that such and such movie was better than Fight Club. Some of you would even go as far to call me a pseudo-intellectual. If you can define it that is. You may be right. I sometimes consider myself a pseudo-intellectual. But is it my fault that I enjoy watching movies that are interesting, smart, or funny no matter what language they were originally in? Am I supposed to not like that old Radiohead album just because it uses wierd and frightening noises? Can I not enjoy movies and music as art as well as forms of entertainment? Apparently I can do all these things but I will be put in the same category as someone who uses big words to impress people. The fact that I use big words like pseudo-intellectual just adds fuel to the fire.
Anyway
The Cafe Tacuba album Cuatro Caminos is a really good record to listen to whether you understand the spanish language or not. The first time I heard it I was reading a book for class, so I was not paying attention to what Mr. Buendia was singing but I did notice how he uses his voice and the words he sings as just another instrument. I have been listening to these guys since my good old days of listening to Mexican pop way back in my early days of going to middle school in the border town of Brownsville. I am happy to say that these guys have evolved right along with my musical tastes. Their new record is one of those albums like Sublime that is hard to put into any one category other than great rock music. Listen to it and if you are a pseudo-intellectual you will like it. If you are not a pseudo-intellectual you won't say anything but you will have listened to a really great album.
PS (he he pee)
And yes there are movies that are better than Fight Club. Even one by the same director. Also every pseudo-intellectual knows that it was better as a book anyway.

Irony Is A Cruel Bitch
Those of you who read my post from yesterday will remember my positive comments on rain. Those of you who didn't, or have smoked too much pot to remember, can scroll down and read yesterday's post. Anyway yesterday I praised the bright side of a rainy day; well fate has decided to punish me for those comments. I don't know if this is related to the rain that fell and wet me yesterday as I walked to my freezing dorm room, but I now have symptoms of a cold/cough. I don't know whether its irony or just a coincidence but either way it really sucks. Wait! "Sucks" is a term that is too overused these days. It really bites! That's better and the exclamation point adds some style to it. Don't you agree?
Back To Bitching
School in Kingsville is fucked up because there are a lot of roads in the school. I have to cross three or four roads just to get to class in the morning. And none of these roads have any stop signs or any signs that would tell a driver that he is legally required to stop. So you just have to trust that, when you are walking, the pissed-off, hung-over, football player, who is late to class, will stop and let you cross no matter how slow you are walking. I'm sorry, you drivers out there, but I am lazy and usually tired in the mornings, so you will excuse me if I take a long time to let you pass.
There is no Emoticon For What I Am Feeling
I recently started posting on the message boards for Further Seems Forever. I like the band and the people there sometimes talk about interesting topics, but the greatest thing in the boards is their smileys. My favorite one is the shrug icon, which you can see in my post right here. I wish AIM would have that icon too because I would use it all the time. You should know that I started that topic just so I can link it to this post. You guys should feel special.
PS (he he, pee)
I am not religious but for some reason I am really compelled to wear this Jesus shirt.

This is the fourth post in a series of daily posts. That is some kind of record for me.

Warning To the Negative Nellies
I noticed that in the past few posts I have spoken negatively about my current situation here at Kingsville. That is my fault because it seems to me that rather than bottle up my anger or annoyance about something, I should share it with you fine people. I have decided though that in this post I will talk about one of the things that I like about Kingsville. So for those of you who come here for the bitching: courage!
It Rains A Lot In Kingsville
That's the good thing. I like rain. I like how the air is cooler before and after it rains. I like how the grass and leaves are greener after it rains. I like the smell of the moist air and plants. I like jumping over puddles and imagining the "boing!" sound Mario makes in the original Super Mario Bros. when I do. I like rain, and, for some reason, it rains a lot in Kingsville. I think it has to do something with its closeness to Corpus Christi or something. I don't really know but just the fact that it rains a lot makes me happy to be here.

Misfits and Wallflowers Unite!
I hate eating in the school cafeteria on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Apart from the terrible food it seems like the last few times I have been there to eat lunch on a Tuesday or Thursday, I have been transported back to my early days of high school. That is a bad thing because I hated all the days of high school, early or otherwise. You see on Tuesdays and Thursdays I have three classes with only 45 minutes in between my second and third classes. It is that time that I have to use to eat because the cafeteria is closed when I get out of class. Every time I get there after class the cafeteria is packed. Every single person with a mouth has decided that they need to stuff it full of crappy Salisbury steak. It is at this time when I am holding my tray of crappy food and I am staring at the tables full of people who I don't know that I am once again a freshman in high school looking at a cafeteria full of people who seem to have known each other for years while I am just a new entering freshman with a small group of friends who have decided to not choose a table and end up eating outside the cafeteria. It's sad I know, but what can I say? I was a social misfit in high school.
PS (hehe pee)
I finally listened to the Dashboard Confessional album and FUCK THE NAY SAYERS! cause I liked it. I especially like the song "Ghost of a Good Thing". Which is weird because its one of the sad songs in a mostly happy album. Cheer Up Emo Kid!
PPS (hehe pee pee): Your Homework
I want you to watch Adult Swim. Adult Swim is this great two-hour block on cartoon network that has awesome shows for people a little older than the regular cartoon network demographic. It has Family Guy and Futurama, which are two of my favorite show. They are hilarious. What I want you to do is to keep an eye out for a certain commercial. I really like this commercial. It's a commercial for adult swim. The commercial tell you to time travel. I can't really explain it so watch it. It is the funniest commercial I have ever seen.

About The Weekend
This was an exciting yet uneventful weekend. It was supposed to be exciting I guess but it didn't turn out that way very much. Today was my brother's birthday. Happy Birthday Bro!!!! And we were supposed to go out and do the things that guys do when one of their own is celebrating a birthday, an anniversary, or even a Thursday. It ended up that whenever we tried to do anything this weekend nothing really happened. You see Kingsville is a lazy town as well as small. When you are in Kingsville, you don't feel like doing a damn thing. I think its something in the air or maybe it's the pollution that is not in the air. Too much Oxygen is bad for you, you know. That's why they make you inhale a bunch of it during airplane emergencies (at least that's what Fight Club tells me). We did end up playing pool at some point and hang out at Denny's for a while. I hate Denny's. All the food looks good and appetizing on the menu and it will make most men hungry, but when they bring you the food it is way less than you expected. The desserts are worth their low price though. Anyways those were the highlights of this Labor Day weekend. Tune in next week for some real debauchery, though.
School So Far
I began classes this past week and I can't complain. Actually, I can, and I will complain right here to you. My English and Government and History classes are good. Unfortunately I am not majoring in English, History or Government. The classes that do matter to me, though, are not to my expectations. My programming teacher is brand new so he's going to be naively annoying. My Physics teacher is said to be a dick and I just keep listening for ways in which he will try to screw me over. That is distracting. I will try to change my Programming class but I will stay with the phallic Physics teacher. I enjoy a challenge. Wow did that last couple of sentences together sound gay?! Oh well.
