So I found a place in the city. I'll be moving in with 2 other people whom I've never met. I think it should be interesting. I'm a little nervous, but excited at the same time. Living out in the country is great but I really got to get out of my parents basement. I remember when things weren't going my way, I used to always be able to say, at least I'm not one of those bums that's still living with his parents. Now all I have is, "at least I'm not homeless"
I could probably afford to rent my own place, but I really like how things have been going with my finances lately and in the long run, I want to get enough to buy or build my own house and maybe rent some space to people. So moving in with these other people should be a bit of a learning experience as to how that would work. It'll be nice to meet some new faces as well.
I'm definitely not looking forward to the moving part, but I think I'm just going to take what I need for now and pick up more as I go.

Tiger
So EA was a little unsure on if they should go forward with another Tiger Woods game. Personally, I think his recent situation would make some interesting mini-games. "How many woman can you cheat on before the media finds out?"

climategate
Oh good, they've proved that man-made climate change is a big hoax. Let's all celebrate with a new coal power plant. Don't worry about letting your SUV's idle a little too long out there people, it was all a hoax to make money. No need to get interested in electric cars and trying to reduce our carbon footprint. That's a relief, I thought that maybe we'd have to adapt to a cleaner, more responsible lifestyle. Phew....

lolcats
I'll admit, I really enjoy those lolcats pics where the cats speak in terrible English. They're a good a time.
What I can't stand is the plethora of comments that you usually see after these things where people comment in terrible English and they all just look really retarded.

his image
I've been reading this article that my parents have about evolution and creationism. Being a Christian publication, there's a lot of arguments reused that always seem to go back to a small passage in the bible.
One is that if man was created in God's image, how could humans have evolved from something else through random variation?
That our physical being was set in stone and that physical being is God like.
This is something I've had a problem with for a long time. Growing up in a Christian household, even as a child I found contradictions with teachings in the bible. When I first heard that we were created to look like God, I assumed that it must be in a metaphorical sense, or in some manner other then our physical being.
Everything about our bodies is related to our environment. We have enough muscle mass to hold ourselves up in this planets gravity, we have lungs that breathe the air on this specific planet. If God created light, what was he using to see before he created the universe? We have eyes that are specifically adapted for this light. If it was much darker, we would have evolved a different form of eyes that could see in darker environments.
The only way God could look like us is if the Christian perspective of God is seriously skewed. If we were created by aliens from another planet similar to ours, then perhaps we would look somewhat alike.

games
There's an odd satisfaction to finishing off a game of solitaire. Double clicking each card even though you know you've won, it feels like the best part. Like finishing off the last numbers of a sudoku. Solitaire is an odd game, there's not really any strategy to it, (not that I know of, anyway), it seems like you get a deal that wins or you don't. I suppose there's a couple ways you can screw up, and there might be a solitaire expert out there that's like, "damn you kid, there's so much more to this game then you realize!" but to me it seems like when you play solitaire you're just going through the steps to see if you have a winner or not.
I still play it from time to time while waiting for this slow ass internet.

another wasted weekend
I'm going to go to sleep right away because I have nothing better to do.
another week of work ahead of me
I think there's a light at the end of the tunnel.
Paying off my debt, saving up, getting a house, an education, taking a vacation
I'm telling myself this because I'm pretty sure that as long as keep these positive images in my mind everything will be fine.
who are you and why should you care
everyone has their own problems, aspirations, distractions, escapism, depression, suppression, indecision...
there's not really any point in writing this.
just words
just another day.
Does anyone think it's weird that they have a vampire on sesame street? This is a character that needs to kill other people and suck their blood to survive. What a messed up concept. It's like having a zombie teach kids about dental hygiene. "After every corpse I eat, I make sure I brush my teeth."
maybe I should delete all the stuff above that comment
whatever, no one reads this
