"I've upped my absences from about 1 day a week to 2 or 3"
yes, its a difficult legacy to live up to, but it seems my younger brother has done just that. now in his closing months of highschool he has realized, just as we all did, how useless and meaningless class really is after already being accepted to college. it pleases me to see that being 18 senior year has once again provided formally vigilant students the amazing opportunity to escape the mundane drudgery of mascoma valley regional high school.

elton john said recently that the voting for american idol is racist. that seems a little odd since last years winner was a big fat black man. plus, arent there like millions of votes? how is it that millions of people would get together under the radar and vote of all the black singers. come on elton, it just doesnt make sense.
it seems to me like politics is just a bunch of bullshit with each side lying about themselves and their opponents in order to trick the gullible people of our country (most of them are) into voting for them. i was looking at this website the other day that dissected each sides 'attack' commercials. every single thing said was at minimum a misrepresentation if not a total and complete lie.

eric has left a comment (now deleted), which has reminded me of the story i forgot. here it is.
at approximately 4 in the am, st louis announced to eric and kinlin that he couldnt sleep, and was going to go hang out "outside somewhere", to do what, no one knows. sadly he was too drunk to operate the doorknob/locking mechanism successfully, and immediately went back to sleep, which, incidentally it seems he could in fact do.
that was paraphrased from erics comment. thank you sir. and to st louis, better luck next time.

lots of goodies this weekend. but before that, an after work beer on thursday was partly responsible for this quote from ray:
"the deal is, uh, atleast i think the deal is, she gets the ring, and i get the big screen tv"
on saturday we decided to get chinese, after making the call and completing our order, this is the conversation kinlin had with the delivery guy.
chinese guy: when the final?
kinlin: what final?
chinese guy: the the final. you know you take the finals?
kinlin: oh, uh, those are done.
chinese guy: oh really? you moving out?
kinlin: uh, yeah.
chinese guy: wow, oh when you comin back?
kinlin: umm, i dunno
chinese guy: oh cause you graduate?
kinlin: uh, yeah
chinese guy: oh wow, congratulations. what you want for free?
thankfully i thought to have kinlin write down that conversation as we were in such a state as we wouldnt have been able to remember it.
that same night (i think), st louis and i were returning from the liquor store and had almost made it back. we were meters from my door when a lunatic on a bike wildly approached us on the sidewalk. nearly having to dive out of the way i avoided the bikeman. st louis wasnt as lucky. the crazy biker hit my friend on the shoulder and continued on into the street and across an intersection. stunned at first, we then continued our walk back. midway across the intersection the bikeman began to yell. it sounded like "you big f ...." but was immediately muffled as he crashed to the ground. it looked like as he turned to yell at us, his handlebars went perpendicular to his back and he did a faceplant in the middle of the street. of course this triggered immediate laughter and jeering on our part. he hopped on his bike as fast as possible and sped off. way to make yourself look like a fool.
at danielles (which i skipped) another story of note took place and i meant to write it down. but i dont remember anything about it now. sorry.
as the date of our departure from 175 Hemenway St. approaches, we still do not have a place to move into. with a little over a month left, i am a bit anxious. we found this sick house that would be absolutely amazing if we got it. however, currently it hinges on whether joseph dooling wishes to move in with us for a second (for me, third) time. he should. anyone reading this should tell him that.
since easter weekend, i have been absolutely entranced by the 'Cirque du Soleil'. has anyone seen this? its like the circus on acid. they do the most ridiculous things you wouldnt think were possible. anyway, its pretty good. i think it plays on Bravo. watch it.
