I’m alive… barely… I’m pretty sick. Kind of annoying… Couldn’t sleep for more than 10 minutes last night without waking up because of some problem or another… Finally, around 6am, I got up and carefully made my way to the store across the street where I bought lots o’ drugs… I came back, took nyquil, and slept for about 3 hours before I had to get up and go to class… Skipped my second class, came home, and then slept… couldn’t stay awake… kinda figures… can’t sleep when I need to, can’t stay awake when I should… I’m debating what flavor drug I’m going to take tonight… I have a couple to choose from… Nyquil or tylenol cold… the only difference is nyquil will knock my butt out… guess I’ll wait and see how I feel in an hour…

umm, other than that, nothing much is going on here… had to send my dvd player off to be fixed… same problem it had last time, which means they didn’t really fix it in the first place… pisses me off, but oh well… not much I can do about it… I also built some speaker stands for my home theater system. Pretty simple and yet spiffy for roughly $3 a piece. I screwed a 2×6 into a foot-wide circular base and then put a screw in the short side of the 2×6 to hold the speaker… ok, so I can’t really explain it, but the point is, it works, and it was incredibly cheap… no $70 speaker stands from best buy… I guess it’s amazing what we can be motivated to do out of jealousy… not that I’m jealous of my roommate’s system, I mean, mine is more powerful than his and all, but he found a way to set up his speakers where they’re supposed to go, whereas all 5 of my surround speakers just sat on top of the entertainment center… So I fixed the problem… Now my speakers go where they’re supposed to, also :)

no class tomorrow… geez, I wonder why… man, I can’t get started ranting about that, or else I’d be here all night screaming and hollering and no one would hear me… Suffice it to say that I hate stupid people, and I hate people who take advantage of a serious situation to further their purpose, which pretty much can be summed up under either wanting to make more money, or wanting to have more power… Pretty much everything that we see and hear tomorrow will be motivated by one of those two things… sickening…

Speaking of birthdays and such, I guess it is worth note that as of tomorrow, my blog will turn one year old. Just now, I went back and reread my first real post… Dad gum, was I really so poetic back then? Makes me feel kinda worthless now… Now I just type whatever hits my mind. Generally, I don’t write things like “and all I have is time to decide if it’s a premonition or the fancy of an idle mind” and “Time is the maker and unmaker of all things”… kinda sad…

You know, I really don’t want to get into this too much, but let me ask a question to make you think. In my first blog, I predicted change. I said I felt like things were going to change tremedously… But… Have things really changed that much? The “bandwagon of patriotism” has slowed down and unless you’re incredibly paranoid then you’ve probably been desensitized to the phrases “terrorism alert” and everything else the media uses in an attempt to keep the general public terrified. Airport security has changed, but does that really affect our day-to-day life? Well, I said I wouldn’t get into this that much, so I’ll just repeat the question and call it quits on this one… So… Have things really changed that much?
