I’m at home right now, lying in bed. It feels like a fat guy has sat on top of my entire body. My dad is home as well, because he has bronchitis. It must be weak genetics. You’d think I’d be able to avoid my boss, but I call in sick and he’s still here.
The good news is that I have been entertaining myself with Line Rider. You draw your slope out and you want your sledder to follow and all the physics is done automatically. I can’t get my guy to stay on the sled for more than ten seconds, but there are guys that can do this. Everyone should play
This week I picked up Brand New’s latest album. To clear up the confusion for those of you that don’t know, the band’s name is Brand New and the album is also brand new. I’ve listened through this album a few times, and I have to say that I like it. The title of the album, The Devil and God Are Raging Inside Me, is quite fitting. The songs sound like the voice of a tortured soul, torn between good and evil. The lyrics are a vivid depiction of the writer’s internal struggle and his apparent descent into darkness. It’s an album that’s great as background music when working, but it’s also great get into it and hear the story unfold. Brand New has done a great job putting together another awesme album.
Including the Home Depot Adventures, Thanksgiving Weekend was jam packed full of fun times. It was good food, good friends, and all around good times.

After sake bombing, to ensure the safety of drivers and passengers, we decided to kill some time at Home Depot. We have so much fun in stores after drinking. Rather than think up funny captions to all the pictures, I’ll just post some of them and let you guess what is going on in them.

Do you know where the title comes from?
In my web browsing I came across this link. The brilliant minds at Manchester University have developed a formula to calculate the effects of beer goggles. I have a question for those of you, who love the sauce. Do you get beer goggles, and what is it like?
I don’t get beer goggles as far as I know. When I am not so drunk that my brain is skipping out every once in a while, people remain as attractive or unattractive as they started. I may get friendlier, but I know I am being friendly with an ugly person. Some may pass that off by defining beer goggles as, “It’s not that you can’t tell the difference. It’s that you don’t care.” I don’t think that’s it for me. I just like to have a great time with everyone when drinking.
Well, I have been keeping up with my new hobby. Fish are captivating and fun, but the tank just doesn’t satisfy the need of a man. That is why I have decided to build a backyard pond! Parental approval is pending, but my dad should be an easy sell. I just have to prove to my mom that this will be aesthetically pleasing. Since I am opposed to digging tons of dirt out and hauling it away, I have decided to build an above ground pond. Basically this will be accomplished by stacking bricks and setting up a pond liner, tucked under the top layer of bricks. A waterfall will be included in this design.

I’m over online social networking. It is the biggest waste of time. There is next to no value in online social networking for me. It is like the horrible movie that you’re afraid to walk out of, because it might get good once you leave. Thus I have deleted both my Friendster and Orkut accounts.
I can’t be wholeheartedly against online social networking. It is how I tricked Michelle into meeting up with me for the first time in many years. I think it was my completely honest and humble tagline “World’s Strongest Billionaire” on my Friendster page that caught her attention. That is why I have kept my MySpace account and pulled off all the information from my profile. I will hold onto this account and wait for MySpace to prove itself useful other than entertainment from what I like to call MySpace Boobies. Nothing brings out a whore like online social networking.
A while back, Angie enlightened me to the fact that even though we have close friends, we have no idea what their daily lives entail. I am talking about work and school. It takes up so much of our lives, and yet we have no idea what we do all day. To show you how ignorant I am when it comes to what my friends do at work, I will give you a list of what I think they do.
Spencer watches movies all day and thinks up schemes to trick people into watching them. Randall touches people, but it’s okay because he is a dotor. Fred reads through thick manuals so he can convince people how what happened a long time ago applies to modern day. Michelle writes about how colors make you awesome and epitomize lifestyle. Angie stares at math problems and tries to figure out how to make other ethnicities as good as Asians. Vicky currently twists herself into pretzels. Harrison does stock. Kyung draws.

I have had so much work thrown on me recently. Really, I didn’t have much choice but to work through the weekend. I put in another sixteen hours this weekend, and I am almost caught up with all my work. Although there was a lot of work to be done, it was a great weekend.
Saturday night, Tony got the privilege of being a judge in the Global Battle of the Bands, hosted at Key Club. He got a bunch of us onto the guest list. Harrison was in town and he and Annie came out. It was nice to get back to the small clubs on The Sunset Strip, where I saw countless concerts back in college. What can I say about the music? Some of the bands were great, while others had no place in the contest. I think the judges had it hard, because the bands weren’t even the same genre of music.
