Poppa-mawmaw-poppa-mawmawmaw-pop-poppa-mawmaw-poppa-mawmawmaw!

Oh, long long time since a post. Christmas is over. Yeah, my cd take was quite alright:
Ramones - Rocket to Russia
Clash - Give 'Em Enough Rope
Rancid - ...And Out Come The Wolves
Alkaline Trio - From Here to Infirmary (On tonight on Letterman)
Anti-Flag - A New Kind of Army
Tossers - Purgatory
And I got "Lock Stock" on DVD along with the Simpsons 3rd season and Indiana Jones.

Why the hell did I just type that? No one cares what the hell I got.

Pinch me 'cause I'm still asleep; please God, tell me that I'm still asleep.

It's the perfect time of year
Somewhere far away from here
I feel fine enough, I guess
Considering everything's a mess.
There's a restaurant down the street
Where hungry people like to eat.
I could walk, but I'll just drive
It's colder than it looks outside.

It's like a dream - you try to remember but it's gone.
Then you try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn, when you
Try to see the world beyond your front door.

I hate basketball. It's almost 6 and I am just walking in the door. I haven't been home since 10 this morning. I feel like I might have the flu, I'm really short of breath. Movie night? We'll see.

PS. My knee still hurts. :)
if god came down on christmas day,
i know exactly what he'd say-
he'd say oi! to the punks
and oi! to the skins
but oi! to the world and everybody wins!

-vandals -oi to the world!

once when i was around 12 or so i had a santa dream. i was old enough to know that it was all a hoax, but i still had this amazingly real dream that santa was on the roof and i went out and saw him there with his reindeer and everything. towards the end of it he flew off into the night sky just like in the cartoons. when i woke up i was confused, because it was such a real dream, probably the most real dream i've ever had. at the time i felt really childish for having that dream, but looking back i say wow. that was an awesome dream. i hope i have that dream again sometime.

it's begining to look a lot like christmas...

See, there is proof I rock. I do not know if Ms. L. McGuire will be posting again, but we shall see. Seriously though, I didn't post that, I'm not that loney/sad/depressed/crying/pathetic/hungry, so back off. It just looks like the Toner Radio Blog Thingy is getting more peeps, everyone else has more than one, so why not me? Eh? Yeah.

Just a few more days till Christmas and there's just one thing on my wish list:
I won't care if the snow doesn't fall or if there's no holly to deck the halls,
But if you were wrapped in ribbons of red and you forgot what I had said;
And if you were wearing Santa's hat and grabbed my hand and took me back;
Well, the snow would fall and we'd deck the halls and the candy canes well they'd fall like rain;
And you'd dance under the tree with me.

Mu330 - 3 Days Til Christmas

I heart Christmas. I heart Mu330. Therefore, I heart Mu330's Christmas CD. Which I do. It's pure Mu330. That poppy-ska. They do write a good Christmas tune.

Anyway, this week could not go by slower. I thought it was zipping along, right up to the point when Matt Timmons informed me today was not Wednesday as I thought, but rather Tuesday. Damnit.

On another topic, Chaz informed me yesterday, and then again today, that my little excuse for a band might be closing Banua. Awesome.

Whatever, it's cold and I have work to do. Later, y'all.

Christmas! Merry Christmas! To You!

Mu330!

Man, this is cool. It's like frickin 7 mizillion degrees below zero outside, Christmas is really here. Tomorrow we go up to MichI-IshI-Ishigan to get our tree, that's always a riot. Should be fun. I had the joy of learning a new game yesterday: MAFIA. Quite the experience. Still waitin on my UIUC rejection, everyone else is getting theirs, so mine should be here directly. Woo freakin hoo.

On a good note, I am playing in Banua. Yes, that's right, Fenwick is letting me take part in its most important musical. This is a big deal people, I can't play bass. Ah, good times.

I think that's all I got, shower time. Word up.

Do you realize that happiness makes you cry?
Yeah, so does a breakdown.

he's singin and she's there to lend a hand. he's seen his name on the marquee but she will never understand. once again he's leavin' and she's there with a tear in her eye. embraces with a warm gesture, it's time, time to say goodbye... destination unknown

Rancid - Ruby Soho

I know, I've badmouthed Rancid before, and I stand by my cries that they suck, they do, but "Out Comes the Wolves..." is such a great album. I also like the Adicts. Good stuff.

I'm so fricking irritable right now. I'm running on little sleep, I haven't had dinner, I have so much shit to do, I think my head is gonna explode. Ka-Blooie. Better post soon, I promise.

God, I love music.

London's burning with boredom now, London's burning dial 99999!

The Clash - London's Burning

I'm burning with boredom now. It's amazing, there can be so much to do one weekend and nothing the next. I was supposed to have basketball today, but Banua tryouts went a little long, so, yeah. Speaking of which, rock'n'roll baby! We played good and sounded quite awesome. Really awesome for the first time actually playing it straight through. I hope we made it in, we were one of two non-crap-pop-punk acts to try out. Good luck to Chaz and his vain attept to get a Ramones cover together at the last second. I swear, if he makes it in and we didn't...

I got to head over to a little babysitting job now, ah, gettin' paid for watchin' cable. Kick ass.

I'm all lost in the supermarket; I can no longer shop happily. I came in here for that special offer: a guaranteed personality.

the Clash - Lost in the Supermarket

Yo, yo, what is up everyones? Long time since a post (yesterday's does not count. This will be explained... in time... maybe, we'll see). Anyway, vacation was good, got all my college apps in, so that's goo, but I still have no future. That new thing on Homestar Runner is great, number 2 most of all.

I hate listening to music. I get really into one band or a type of music and I want to take part in it you know? Like now, I've been chilling with the Clash, and all I want to do is to take part in some riot or and be all political. I was into 2Tone before and I wanted a suit. Music is ruining me.

I'm starting a new comic. This'll be my third this year. "Scene Hoppers" isn't dead, "My Stupid Life" is, and this new one (no title yet) isn't a strip so it can't die. It's gonna be short, 4 pages, max. It's gonna be a full comic, but just a short, and I'm gonna color it all cool and stuff. I know what I want it to look like, we'll see how it goes. I'm still working on a story.

I really like the Clash. I wish I lived in the late 70's early 80's. I'd be able to hear all the great bands, take part in usless movements, and generaly waste my life. Well, I think I'm doing that anyway, but in the 70's it would've been cooler.

Yeah, life is good.
