Bad Things Come in Threes

Well, Lisa gave the Mustang back to Steve and Kumi. Now they don’t know how they will be able to pay the bills. It was just thrown on them as a surprise. Poor them. Teddy’s house was robbed on Thanksgiving. S8n’s computer was one of the items taken. So yet again, a bad thing. Now I’m waiting to see what the third thing is; and to which of us it happens.

Tomorrow I’m going to a LAN party @ Dave’s pad. It should be fun; especially since I bought the games so that I can play them on my MAC.

Side note: EVERYONE STOP TRYING TO HOOK ME UP WITH PEOPLE..... Everyone that does is someone that I don’t want to; they don’t know what I’m looking for. Toni wants me to hook up with her niece. She seems nice, but not really my type. Toni is pretty pissed that she owes me 40 bucks.

Turkey Day

Happy Turkey Day to everyone. I’m in 29 Palms w/ Gordon, Emily, & Darren. We’re BBQing the turkey :-)

Absent Minded Professor

This old nickname that my parents had for me is beginning to fit again. I am easily distracted from what I’m doing to something else. I find it funny actually. Also, lately I’ve been saying things and they don’t make sense to other people but do make sense in my head. This hasn’t been a regular occourance in YEARS! Not a good or a bad thing really; just a thing, a quirk.

I’ve been filling out the bubble sheets for grades. GOAL OF THE WEEKEND: Get that done & call up somebody to set up a date. Looks like the Ted-Man and I will be going gambling on this Sat. night. I just hope that Toni isn’t still trying to hook me up with her niece if they’re going.

Throw Back the Fish

Fishing through a hole in the sand
This is definitely not what I planned
Caught by my lure I grab your hand

Now I know why it didn’t work then
I know why it’ll work now
So long as neither of us have a cow.

Shadows of the past pulled into the future
I never imagined that I would be the teacher.
Someday perhaps, we’ll needa preacher.

Forlorn and bitter people sit and stare
We both don’t care
They remain silent; to speak they do not dare

As we walk across the grains of sand
I see someone else’s hand
Grasping, pulling, straining.

Trying to pull me into the sea of the distant past
There is no way that I’ll let this opportunity pass

Calling on the powers of wind and sea,
these fingers are now buried beneath me
We are truly free.

Becky's Birthday

Well, tonight was Becky’s turn to go to a bar. Steve, D, Teddy, Kumi, and Daryl (Steve & Becky’s dad) all went to China Beach. It was a good time. Now she knows what it’s like to be old enough to go. Best part of it all is that I believe she’s the last that I need to go to a bar for the first time with.

Workin' a While

I’ve been workin a while now
Everything is clearer;
I’m not sure why it wasn’t so obvious somehow.
Things always turn towards the positive side

I don’t know; I don’t understand why
Things that seemed right before were truly...
Truly wrong in my mind.
This world has kept me in a bind

To and fro wherever I go, it’s easy now to know
What to do, what to say;
It never really matters anyway
It’s inevitable on any given day.

I will feel this way
My food will be served on a tray
Thank god for everything I say
Or else I would still know it anyway.

making sense of my rhymes is so passe
I don’t even think, it just flows;
Through my veins. The tabasco blood
boils through my body & it is good

Even better to understand how I am not understood
I still look back to days of both of my brotherhoods
Which are stronger than earth, brick, stone,
Or wood

Trip Cancelled

Well, the ticket prices for a trip to Florida were cancelled. Now, there are a couple of options left; party at Darren’s place, a trip to Las Vegas,or something else. Looks like things are set to be in the high desert for Thanksgiving with Darren, Gordon, and Emily.

I really should call Liz today.

Poetry & Art

I’ve been dangling the idea from my head to create the art in my head from my poetry. If I do so, the scans of the artwork will be compiled with the poetry along the side. Now, it’s just a matter of finding the time to do so.

Florida Here I Come!

Well, Dec. 20th is my last day in CA for a while. I’m going to FL with my mom to visit family. It should be an interesting trip. My cousins are really cool. I just wish I could see them more often than I actually do.

Another Vegas trip was in the works, but it looks like my saturday class will get in the way. In other news, tomorrow is the day to mark up the ballot. I’m looking forward to pushing my political agenda :-)

Work kicks butt.

Good Weekend

Went to Dave’s post Halloween party. It was a fun time. It was also good to see Liz since I haven’t seen her in ages. Only bad thing from this weekend: I left my jacket in Riverside.
