4:32 pm - Being Social?
|
|
| |
2:40 pm
|
So I need to watch more movies. For a starting point, I'm going to list the imdb top 250 and bottom 100, for my own reference as a to-do list, and to preserve the current state of the list so that i can spot new additions when i finish the first pass. Ones I have seen are bolded. Partially seen movies don't count. I guess you can turn it into some meme bullshit and repost it in your journal.
Top 250: 107 (42.8%) seen, and I own 2 movies on the list that i haven't watched yet. Not a bad start.
Bottom 100: 3 seen. However, I can't trust any worst movie list that fails to include Plan 9 from Outer Space, and misses Madmen of Mandorras aka They Saved Hitler's Brain aka The Amazing Mr. H.
Next up: AFI lists.
( List, part 1 )

9:08 pm - I guess I'm going to use this thing more often
|
So, here we attempt a grand journey of self-discovery. I'm working on losing weight and becoming more assertive. It's probably too late for me to be the next Crowley, but I've still got plenty of time to be an amoral son of a bitch. I'm going to start trying social things again, and just try to overcome the social anxiety through immersion and pure fucking dedication. Anybody want to help drag my ass out of the house?
Creative endeavors would be nice, but for now I need to deal with redoing the house so Katie and I have places to work. I'm probably going to attempt a big cleanout of the basement in the next month.
current mood:  determined

8:47 pm - I can has self-actualization?
|
So I'm trying to become the person I want to be. The tricky part is setting goals. And then it hit me, write my epitaph now, and then try to live up to it.
Here lies Steven
1982-2072
Ballsy Motherfucker
I think that if those were the best possible words to describe me, I probably did something awesome. But I'm open to suggestions. What do you people think my optimal epitaph should be?

1:51 am - the end of the world, and buttsex.
|
Strange dreams last night. First, I was stuck in a town without houses. It was like an endless suburban office park. Small beige brick buildings, maybe 4-5 sharing a parking lot, with no labelled addresses, connected to unnamed streets stretching on forever. All the building have little brass name plaques on the front of the building, but the names are just random word salad. "Argh Pineapple Division", nonsensical shit like that. Some of them have the same names, but numbered in a series. Buildings of similar name are generally not near each other, and if they are, the numbers aren't continuous, even though I know they're numbered sequentially. So there's one building series relating to eschatology, and there's like 245 of them. I'm going to die soon, I know, and the world will die with me if I can't find building #1 and building #245. And they're nowhere to be found. I find buildings 2-7, sitting right next to each other, but building 1 still can't be found. Then I woke up, certain that death was imminent.
Then I went back to sleep again, and had several different dreams about gay sex. Maybe you were there.
That was my morning. My evening was work, and my night was playing Rock Band. It turns out you can drum and sing simultaneously, it's just really fucking hard. God damnit, Trent Reznor.

4:03 pm - Wizard needs hardware badly. Elf shot the tech.
|
|
Okay, so the integrated dsl modem/wireless router that came with our dsl has finally crapped out. It doesn't hold a connection longer than an hour or so, and won't connect for the vast majority of the day. So now I need a new dsl modem and wireless router. Don't care if they're integrated or not. Where's the best place to snag them on the cheap?

3:35 pm - Halp!
|
So I finally decided to catch up with mid-2007 and play Portal. My processor is up to the task, my video card is up to the task, all drivers are updated, steam is updated. The game loads, but will lag to unplayability within a minute of starting a new game. Would anyone be able to help with this? The first person to successfully help gets a free copy of Ichi the Killer!

1:55 am - Vacation
|
I'm on vacation until next Tuesday. People should come and hang out.
Thursday night is Guitar Hero, DDR, and miscellaneous gaming.
Friday is board gaming, all goddamn day.
Saturday is hanging with Katie.
Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday are all free. Probably movie-watching and miscellaneous gaming.
Post in comments if you're planning on coming.

Friends, I write to you with sad news. My digestive tract is in ruins and I can no longer consume your human food. My belly can only be filled with consumer electronics and rare board games. Please, I beg of you, Buy my stuff so that I can eat another day. The emptiness of my heart demands a PSP, and the gnawing void in my bowels demands a copy of Chainsaw Warrior.
So yeah, selling lots of stuff on ebay so Katie can get a laptop, and possibly me as well. There will be large amounts of RPG books, comics, and PS1 games going up over the next couple days.

12:43 pm - Glorious Masses
|
I am planning on making an awesome party at my house. It will involve my game collection, Brawl, and perhaps booze.
Who is interested? I want to make plans.
YOU SHOULD LET ME KNOW SO I CAN SHUT UP TO MY WIFE ABOUT HOW LONELY I AM.

Jesus christ, this is shaping up to be a crappy workday. We've been open all of 19 minutes and I've already been rickrolled, had a cluster of tards with brohawks, and been asked for City of Villains time cards.
So the Anonymous vs. Scientology has got me thinking. We need to start setting trolling groups against fringe religions on a regular basis. These could be the greatest fights ever. I'm thinking the GNAA versus Wiccans or possibly Stormfront against the Church of Satan. I would be a happy man.

10:18 pm - Your whole family is made of meat
|
Life is both chaotic and intermittently lame. Starting a Triple-A in the morning, sounds like a decent job.
A Call to Action
Gaming at my house saturday, Scientology protest sunday. You should join us for glory, and possibly honor. Contact me for details on gaming or protesting. Sense of humor required.
Also, If somebody wants to get me out of the house in the near future, it would be appreciated. I'm alternately wanting to be with people and wanting to be a recluse.

9:35 am - All I Want
|
Living with Gene, Conrad, and Katie makes me happy. Each day is almost like an anime, and I enjoy it. I usually don't like anime either.
Conrad is growing up and looking like me more and more each day. Such a handsome boy! I hope he inherits my bitterness, love for gaming, and terrible taste. Some day, when I pass away and into a pile of meat, my son will inherit all my terrible and that will make the world whole. He will pass along my life and glory.
On to Katie. Ever since her medicine kicked in, she has become more confident and it has only enhanced her beauty. I watch her everyday; she has a renewed interest in life. It bring me joy to see her actively interact with Conrad and I am glad she enjoys him so much. She has given up so many material possesions lately and the house looks so much better because of it. I think I have fallen in love with her more deeply than I could imagine. I feel so bad for hurting her last year.
Gene and I are a good team at Game Nite. Gene handles crowd control and I handle the boring stuff. After work, we come home and hang out. It's really nice to have someone like him around. I think he has taught Katie some good traits, like how to not care what people think of you and that you can cut people out of your life because they are drama queens.
I am a little stressed out. Work gets to me sometimes, even though I mostly enjoy it. After Christmas, I am going to look for a new job because I like having nice things and Katie deserves so much more than scraping by. I need to set a good example for Conrad. I need to be able to pay for my car.
So, today I have made a resolve. All my enemies are made of meat. I shall eat them between a kaiser roll with ketchup. Everything tastes better with ketchup. I think that the Statue of Liberty would taste better with it as well. I think I'll eat my couch. I think I will eat my Playstation so I can absorb it's power. Domo domo domo domo Wrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!111!!!#$()*#NDIO
KTHX bai now. I have to go read Something Awful and smoke some cigarettes because they make me look cool. I have to get the lung parasites out. I have to make the pain within me go away. I am more sad on the inside than a person who didn't eat lunch. I am the man who ate the universe.

As the first phase of my glorious 25th birthday celebrations, we will be hosting a party. But, this isn't just any party. This is the Saddest Day Party. You cry, you lose. For the softhearted types, it will be an emotional day. For the hardhearted assholes, it will be a callousness marathon that no one wins. We will see into your heart, and you too will cry.
There will be three movies:
Schlinder's List
Grave of the Fireflies
Open slot (I'm narrowing down depressing movies, but it's still open to suggestions)
After the movies, probably board games. Selection will vary depending on whatever the fuck I feel like playing, but Arkham Horror is definitely a possibility.
Festivities start at 1. Any earlier and I will put you to work setting up.
Please RSVP so we can know how much space we'll need, and bring some food, drink, or offering to the house (we are poor!).
If you love me, bring me a pack of cloves. Bring me booze. Bring me a funny story.
Edit: So apparently I'm an idiot and forgot to put a date. Sad movie day is Sunday, November 4th.
current mood:  exhausted

1:46 am - Call for Aid 2: Electric Boogaloo
|
So we didn't get everything moved. If I can drag my ass out of bed early enough, I'm going in for a nine-hour shift tomorrow, going home to rest for a couple hours, and then returning for another four hours. Any assistance at all would be highly appreciated. Don't have any cash to offer, but the favor still stands. I could even lift the fugly restriction, if you are strong like ox. Any help before 9:30 pm would be arranging the new store, or cleaning out/breaking down fixtures in the old one. After 9:30 would be moving additional fixtures/files/useful objects to the new store, plus finishing cleaning out the old store. I don't like relying on other people for help, but I'm approaching the limit of how much energy I can put into this right now.
On another note, once this shit is done, I should be able to finish working on the house. After that's done, I will hopefully have time for more fun things and/or going back to school.

5:58 pm - Everybody!! Assistance Required!
|
We're moving the store tonight, and the employees I was expecting for backup flaked out on me. If you don't have anything going on tonight, you should come on down to the store and help us move. We'll be working till midnight or 1 AM. There will be some form of pizza provided, as well as my undying gratitude. If you can help, give me a call on my cell. 314-766-2767
Edit: If you help, I will personally owe you one favor, to be redeemed at any time. This can be sexual, assuming you aren't fugly.

Store is moving within the mall, not out of it as I originally hoped. Crunched some truly grim fucking numbers. Depressing family revelations. I am physically, mentally, and emotionally drained.
On the plus side, I am not resposible for "Richard McBeef." And that's a satisfaction I can take to my grave. I have not inflicted something immortally terrible on the world. Yet. I feel the calling of terrible film. Or Guerilla Installation art.
I need a hot shower, a blowjob, twenty thousand dollars, a lengthy massage, three bottles of thirty-year-old scotch, some cock, a carton of Djarum Blacks, two week's vacation, a talented therapist, and a slow death to all my foes, preferably in that order. Anyone not bearing these gifts can also substitute warm greetings, a pack of Sampoerna 324s, or perhaps a friendly game of Hive.
Edit: Ended up talking about Fight Club to the cashier at Border's the other day. He said "I should rent that again. I was like 10 when it came out." Jesus, that makes me feel old. Also, why is my Gunbound full of 12-year-olds and teh haxorz?
