I saw Freezepop last night at the Middle East - I always love their shows. They make me want to bounce. It was great. I felt awake and energized and I realized I should go out more often. We rode bikes home after the show and it was so beautiful riding over the Mass Ave bridge at 1:00 a.m.
I had a test today and I was humbled. I heard everyone talking about it afterwards and the concensus seemed to be that it was generally difficult and abstract. I'm glad I studied though because I at least got *some* of it right.
Tonight I want to call the gym and find out where my membership stands. I feel great now that I have been riding my bike around and I imagine that i will feel fantastic if I got to the gym too. Plus I am weak as shit. And I need to be strong as bull.
Ha ha the muscle in my left arm is more pronounced from carry my bike up stairs. How funny.
Today I ate a protein bar with only 3 grams of carbohydrates - it was surprisingly good but expensive $2.75. *hurmph* I also drank Arizona Ice Tea which is tasty but I should just stick to water - I drank soda this week twice and I feel like crap for it. It makes my teeth hurt and makes me feel sick to my stomach. Never again. I'm done with soda 100%. I was pretty done with it to begin with but the A&W; Cream Soda looked too good.
God I feel hyper.
I don't know what's going on today. Tonight i might just chill although I feel supremely energized and would like to go dancing maybe.
Tomorrow I go to a Grindcore show in Attleboro where peeto's band is playing. I'm taping it on DV I think.
I need to pee. Adios.

I really want a doughnut today. Like *REALLY* badly, i'm sure this is due to the Krispy Kreme convesation I had earlier. But there are no Krispy Kreme doughnuts in MA. Only Dunkin' Donuts. Dunkies is not that good in the doughnut department. Plus I know that I would feel really bad if I ate a doughnut.
But...
I want one.
I'll just drink water instead and maybe some tea. :(
I think I might give in to just one doughnut is Krispy Kreme were here. But I just don't love Dunkies that much.

Peeto went to a party tonight and I decided not to go because I felt really worn out -- oh I think he just got home.. Now I'm really wired and wish I had done something. I feel like riding my bike around but it's not such a great idea in this area in the middle of the night. Not that it's really dangerous - it's just totally deserted and there are really no "nice" places to ride. Too bad I'm not still near the bike path, although sketchy stuff was starting to occur around there when I moved away.
Wow. I drank Chai today and I think that is why I am so awake.
I feel pretty lonely actually - I didn't want to see a party full of people but I did want some human contact tonight. I should have gone out. Instead I spent my night taking practice GRE's online. Oh well.

I was in a car accident in 1997, my head when through the windshield and tons of glass and tree bits were lodged in my skin and skull.
I was just scratching my head and felt something weird -- a little piece of glass popped out of my head. It must have been embedded for years. I have it on my desk at work now. How strange.

I'm a temp as some of you know. The people at my work are for some reason, really taken with me. I was out for one day (Tuesday) and when I was in today I had at least 6 people tell me they missed me and that they were so happy to see me. Now I feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I do really enjoy working here. Too bad it's temp. :(
Last night peeto and biked to Brookline in search of Sushi, we were going to try the Brookline Ginza rather than the Boston one but ended up wandering further down the street. We came across Fugakyu, which people had been raving about in  b0st0n yesterday. I must say that it was amazing. It was certainly the best Sushi I have ever had in Boston.
Since we are poor kids we couldn't eat too much and decided to eat frozen yogurt from J.P. Licks on the way home to suppliment the Sushi.
After the annoying horrible beginning to the week the end of the week seems to be improving.
My project for Media Production is *still* not done. I will have to bust my ass this weekend to do it.
Today I forgot my yogurt and then had to spend my lunch money ($3)on T token because I don't have enough money to buy a pass, so I ate 1/3 a box of Corn Flakes (one of those tiny 3/4 oz boxes) and I'm trying to scrounge some change for lunch because I'm *really* hungry. I have two checks to cash, I just have had no time and my bank (Cambridge Trust) is way out of the way for me now that I live in Fort Point. I am going out to dinner tonight though to Monica and Gif's house. They are having Pete and I over. Oh - and they got engaged! YAY YAY!
I need to do some work, adios!

For some reason I can't transfer my DV from the EZ30 to my Imac. I don't know why. I'm doing everything right but it's just not working and my project is due wednesday. I have been doing this since 11:30... I want to cry. I am shaking because I am so frustrated. I must have read 40 million FAQs by now.
If anyone has a digital camera that is compatible with either imovie/firewire and you trust me. Could I PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE borrow it for two hours tonight? I am going to try to get Premiere or something in the meantime so things may work more easily.
this sucks. Yesterday I tried this too and was met with equal adversity.
*cry*

Hello Livejournal friends, as comments can you post pictures of yourselves? I just want to see everyone for some bizarre reason. Please do not post GOATSEX (or anything like that) - if you don't know what that is don't worry - if you do know what that is you may have been thinking of posting it... Don't!!! Anyhow. I would like to see you all.

Hello everyone...
I'm about to leave work.
I'm sorry I've been lousy about posting lately - it makes me a little sad because I'm not really capturing as much of my life as I would like to on here.
On the other hand I've been pretty busy. Tonight I'm going to dinner at peeto's sister's house. And then who knows. Maybe I'll walk around in the rain, I hope it's kind of warm.
I wish I could work later in the evenings but they lock the office by 5:30 - I could really use more $$$. I'm getting kind of broke. I'm also waiting on the security deposit on the last place I lived but it's getting sent to California so who knows if I'll ever see it. I only have $200 in my account right now and I owe $150 to peeto and $105 to the gym and then Tuesday I will owe FB $600. :( :( :(
I have to pee so badly and cannot make up my mind as to weather or not I want to walk to take the T home. I might try walking as an experiment (trying a different route) if it's not to chilly out.
I need to leave.
Oh and I'm really horny. ;)

I went to Nahant Beach last night to film a few scenes for my dream project for my New Media Production class. Unfortunately I couldn't venture too far into the beach because the police were patrolling trying to keep people off for the night.
I walked around Cambridge for a good part of yesterday, it was nice,  rodeo came with me and we went to Harvard, Central and Kendall. Got my eyebrows waxed so I no longer look like a furry beast. I also put I little bit more of a dent in the organization of my room project. I really hope I can finish today - I don't know where any of my stuff is because it's still packed so I've basically been living off a few things here and there. I need to get moving, I have been back for more than two weeks.
I haven't really been much in the mood for writing in LiveJournal and the truth is I really don't have the time. Work is *so* busy, I don't have a moment to spare - and the few moments when I do actually get to go online I feel like one of my co-workers - the evil one whose office is near mine - is spying on me.
School is very busy as well - my classes have been requiring a lot of thought and reading and writing. I am already behind. *doh* I'm going to try to catch up quite a bit tonight -- hopefully. I also lost the power cable to my imac so that seriously puts a damper on working at home since I can't use the damn computer.
I've been thinking a lot about Burning Man since I've been back and I realize that I never really make a proper post about it - and every year I've gone I've been on LJ and have just been unable to muster the proper words to describe the experience. It's such an amazing and powerful, beautiful event. It resonated with me this year in particular. I want to make my life more beautiful and I want to try to be a happier person.
I'm going to see my mom and my grand parents soon so I should get going, I need to shower because our water was shut off yesterday and I'm icky. Hope all is well with everyone.

P.S. I saw Spirited Away on Friday night - it was wonderful! See it if you can.

I feel like going to get something to eat but not alone. No one lives close though and I have to be back here by 9:40 for a house meeting.
I have been cleaning and organizing *ALL* day and it really looks like nothing is done. I am nearly as packed as when I started. Although I did do 4 loads of laundry and got my *7* huge bags of clothes together. I think my room will be neat when I set it up for real.

LiveJournal needs to chill out before suspending and banning people. Its getting out of hand. People are being suspended for saying one thing someone doesn't like. Irony isn't even allowed. It's really starting to get to me. Some LiveJournal team members are letting their "power" go to their heads. Back in the day there was some kind of freedom of speech here, people weren't axed without explanation.
LAME.

| Emerson College rant |
[09 Sep 2002|02:49pm] |
Emerson is such a joke. I can't believe a school could possibly have their shit so *NOT* together. But they seem to manage, and seem to manage to screw EVERYTHING up.
Evidently the book store has been having theft problems. The "bookstore" is a small room full of books and a few very over priced supplies. They have blocked off the rows of books with boxes and tables so the students can no longer get to them. You must find an employee and wait in a very long line just to get your books - and then wait in an even longer line to pay for them. Not to mention you have to leave your bag in the hallway (of a busy building) unattended - thanks for letting my bag get possibly stolen Emerson!
I was not going to even bother with buying books in the store - but my buying Emerson books online (through efollet) was also botched as Efollet sent my books to the bookstore rather than my home. Good work! Thanks Efollet for making me carrying 10 books on the T last semester because you and Emerson fucked up.
So I caved in today and waited in the long ass lines at Emerson to discover that they only had *2* of the 6 books I need. Not only did they not have the rest but they also could not tell me if the books were ever in or when they would be in.
GRRRRR!
I am now going to try to order the books online not from Efollet and see how things work out. What a pain in the ass!
In better news my Professor for my media production class is very cool and I ate Pho for lunch.
In news that I can't believe I haven't posted in Livejournal yet - peeto has Lyme Disease and now half of his face is paralyzed! He cannot even smile he just snarls!

Hello everyone!
I have returned from Burning Man. Today has been quiet a long day - I've been up since 3:15 a.m. - and before that only got four hours of sleep. Eeep!
Burning Man this year was fantastic I had a wonderful time which I will elaborate on when I have some time tomorrow. I just had a rockin' time.
Unfortunately - for those who don't know the ice cream truck kicked the bucket in Kingman, Arizona - sooooo close to Black Rock City - but it just didn't make it. Peeto made it a gravestone for in front of our dome. (R.I.P Freezing Man).
I can't wait to eat Pho! Peeto and I are burnt out on Denny's and various other fried ass food - odd that I actually lost a bit of weight while I was gone. I have no idea how.
I have finally moved from Somerville to Fort Point in Boston - my room is still in disarry but I intend to shape it up tomorrow - at least in part.
These past few weeks have just been insane.
I haven't really been able to keep up with people's journals, let me know if anything interesting has happened.
I'll write more tomorrow. But hello from Boston again! It's nice to be home.

We are in Reno. We rented a U-Haul and brought all of our things to Burning Man last night. We are in another Motel 6 waiting to return the U-Haul and for a ride to Burning Man. We will not be giving out ice cream this year, but everything else seems to have worked out fairly well. At least we can still go and at least we were able to get our bikes and dome there.
I'm waiting for peeto to return from the store with goggles.
Anyhow - off to the playa soon!

I posted this to the Burning Man Community too.. But hey everyone from Kingman, Arizona. The Ice Cream Truck has totally died. Pete and I are at a Motel 6. We are going to try to make it to Burning Man in some other way. Below is the mail from Pete.
We are sad. But not all is lost. Kingman, Arizona kinda sucks but it could be a lot worse.
So hi everyone! I'll keep you updated when I can.
Adios.

hello from Kingman, Arizona. yesterday, the Freezing Man truck breathed its last gasp of aerated gasoline about 35mi south of the Hoover Dam. the engine has thrown a rod, which means that in order to be useful again it needs an engine rebuild at a cost higher than the truck itself. its final resting place is lovely J&L; Towing's junkyard.
IF THERE IS ANYONE GOING TO BURNING MAN VIA I-40 FROM POINTS EAST OF
VEGAS WHO COULD PICK UP TWO LOVELY BURNERS AND A BUNCH OF SHIT, PLEASE CALL 617/755-4473. we will gladly pay for gas, food, champagne, etc.
otherwise, we'll most likely be renting a Ryder truck tomorrow (when
places are open) and continuing the 700 miles that way. if someone could drag us and our stuff from Reno in the next few days, that would be super cool too; in general, call if you think you can help.
to all contributors: the remaining $$$ will be divided among those who gave over $25. thanks for the money -- we'd really love to be spending every cent but it doesn't look like that's the way fate's leaned this time.
it took us 2823 miles this year. final mileage: 329741.
RIP Freezing Man, 1974-2002.
