Strawberry fields forever...

#1 - Yesterday was my last day smoking cigarettes.  So when I woke up today, at the point where I'd normally have a cigarette... I DIDN'T have one.  I'd normally take a shower, maybe shave my face free of it's stubble, and then have a schmoke outside.  Not today, and not tomorrow, and prolly not for a while.  Stay strong, Keith, it's for your own good!

#2 - LOST.  Best. Episode. Ever.  (Not really, but it was pretty aight.)

#3 - Aaron's going to Indonesia!  He called me up on the phone and told me that he was going.  We've talked about it before, saying how cool it would be to go, and so he finally got ahold of his parents and they've given him the thumbs up via his dad's air miles.  I'm happy for him, really, but at the same time, I feel this twinge of something.  I don't know what it is, but I assume it's envy.  I'm not green with it, but I really do wanna go with him.  That's gonna be awesome, and I can't help but think about how much MORE awesome it would be if I could go with him.  Backpack around, visit friends, buy crappy souvenirs, blah blah blah...  It would be neat.

Hookers and shrooms...

1) It's my birthday!

2) Aaron got me GTA IV. Seriously, that's so rad.

3) I enjoyed some zany tea last night, and it kicked my ass. In a good way.

Real Life Bowser

1) It's official - Mario Kart Wii is amazing, despite any of my hesitations about it.  But it's understandable, right?  I mean, Double Dash was incredible, and the DS version had lots of neat features, and the 64 and SNES versions are perfect anyway...  So it was easy for me to be kinda scared because I care so deeply (dankly) about the series.  But yes, rest assured, chillums - Mario Kart Wii is fantastic.  Oooh, and I just unlocked Rosalina, the princess from Super Mario Galaxy!  (By the way, consider that game BEATEN, hellz yeah 120 STARS!!!1!!)

2) My birthday is tomorrow, and I got a card in the mail from Aaron's mom!  It's a sweet card, with little windows on the front to show different colored flowers.  And she put a gift card in there too, so total hats off to her.  *sigh*  I miss that naughty girl.  (Don't ask questions...)

3) I'm going to pick up an application for Red Robin today!  They don't drug test, and the dudes who live above us in our apartment complex both work there and suggested I tell them they sent me!  Troy said he makes $40 a night on average from tips, and that alone is making me jaw drop.  Here's to good job hunting luck!

FIFA Brings Out The Best

^1 - Lost was on last night.  It's an intensely amazing show, it really is.  And I feel that it is my duty, nay, my DESTINY to lead others to Christ/John Locke.  To spread the good news, to enlighten and embolden.  To let the little children know that YES!  There is a place for them!  And it can only be found by following exact, precise coordinates that allow you safe and secret passage into Eden/a time warp.

^2 - I shouldn't be talking about two tv shows in one night, but The Office was crackin', too.  It was funny, it was informative, and it really shed some light on characters - Ryan, especially.  I dunno, I feel silly for saying this, but I've spent so much time with these characters and these stories that I really do care for them.  I want things to work out for Jim, and I want to see Michael grow up a little bit, like I know he has since the show started.  I don't know, it's great.

^3 - Aaron.  Whew, that's a mouthful.  Lots of history, lots of feelings, lots of learning and living.  Here's to us, and here's another in hopes that it'll work out in the long run.

Damn it, I need to figure out the title for the post BEFORE I write it, cuz' this is sendin' me ova DA EDGEE@@@@!!!!!!

1) I totally preordered Mario Kart for the Wii today.  It was $50 and it comes with teh Wii Wheel.  What Justin might NOT know is that I've seen most of a video that included all 32 tracks from the new game.  It was on the internet.  And I do feel bad, people, cause I know that's cheating in a way.  But come on, I think about it like this: I am in absolute 100% love with the Mario Kart series, so much so that I'm eager to gobble up any morsel of info on the topic, including previews of every track (16 retro and 16 new), all three laps (of course, as usual, some with one less, or a couple more), and even gets ridiculous enough to include every menu screen, even for the options and multiplayer menus, just to really show everything the game has to offer.  And me?  What do I do in all of this?  I treat it like a buffet, but my belly never gets full.

2) I had Red Robin today with my mom and grandma.  It was nice, and it was for my birthday, so I guess it was kinda extra nice.  I had chicken strips and bottomless fries, and hot damn they were the best I've had in quite some time (here's to you, Schwan's Man).  She gave me some cash *mumblemumblecigarettesmumble*, so that was cool.  Of course, for those of you who don't know, my birthday isn't until the 29th.  Just FYI, so you can find that perfect e-card that I'll so look forward to every year.

3)  I'm way drunk.  And a lil bit high.  And I've gotta pee like a mother.  Serious, I'm gonna pee my freakin' jeans.  I've gotta go.
