Was soo tired last night. I set my alarm clock for 7am this morning but my body was not having it. Awoke at 11am. It was that no dreaming, dark, deep, pure black kind of sleep too. Death sleep. It wasn’t good either since I had no urgency at all when I finally got up. I should have been running around trying to get a million things done like I was on crack (crack’s a stimulant right?).  Highlight of the day was finding out they served free trade coffee at the Spoke (campus bar) at the same price as the slavery picked stuff. About the only good thing about the “new” Spoke (totally renovated this summer for those not in the know). I miss the canoe hanging from the roof and the grungy dirty…… everything. It is so clean and sterile now. Too bright too. It is like a study area/cafe. So incredibly NOT what I want my student bar to be. Today I wanted to be in my old Spoke. Somewhere on a stained couch in a dark corner reading a new book… with the bargirl bringing me cheap $2.50 Molson Canadians and Labatt Blues, drinking more and more, as simultaneously, my book kept getting more and more interesting.

Other themes of today:
-Miniscule bank account.
-Horribly done assignments.
-Lost my umbrella
. avp1781 has a map I liked.

Something is really messed up with my internet explorer, I can’t test any of the new songs I added (maybe someone else can let me know). I have to do everything through Mozilla.

Frou Frou is coming down. Stay tuned….. Yes, ok, I took Frou Frou and the Iron and Wine track down, they were both from the garden state soundtrack and they seemed to be appearing everywhere. I added 5 new tracks though. “Saul Williams – The Pledge”, which makes makes me feel a bit better about the lousy election. “Laurel Music – Alone In The Dark”, “Scissors Sisters – Better Luck”, “Stars – Sleep Tonight”, “Iron and Wine – Confession Cups and Someone’s Coat” (one that’s not on the garden state soundtrack). The Scissors Sister track is the most fun. The others are mellow… which is nice…

What an uber-shitty day. Stayed up until 5 or 6am last night watching the Bush theft play out once again. My blood courses with hatred for that man, I can’t help but be passionate about it. The mainstream media isn’t covering it but their was voter intimidation occurring all over Ohio and Florida. Don’t you think it is odd Florida wasn’t closer after all the outrage from 2000? New voting machines put in place with no paper records? The stories of push polling and campaign of misinformation focused on minority and low SES areas makes me sick. Maybe people just are incapable of seeing beyond their own little insulated bubble, maybe it was just ignorance prevailing. People want to get fat now, future generations be damned. The youth are too obsessed and absorbed in fake culture to drag their obese asses out to a voting booth. I have to let this go… it makes me shake with anger… Anyway, I had had an 8am date with the dentist. I managed to stay awake. I have a nice new filling. Yipee. Whoopdee freaking doo. I was a walking dark cloud of nastiness today. I need some sleep desperately. Goodnight. I have been appreciating and enjoying the comments.

  1. at least you don’t have hordes of Koreans angry with you, as if you are somehow personally responsible for the election of that smarmy bastard.  I try to explain that I’m from Cook County (Chicago’s voting district) and that we were highly in favor of Kerry, but it’s a lost cause…  and currently I’m doing everything I can to avoid going to see a dentist, which I so desperately need to do
