Wyvern, Passion for Gaming

Mood - nostalgic (for yesterday which is really weird)
Today's Song - St. Jannaro - Miracle

Yesterday was incredibly awesome. I got to go over to Peters house and have blast celebrating the gamer holiday of Wintereenmas. Thus I felt the sudden urge to revamp the blog. So here we are with the green and purple. I like it.

I really do feel nostalgic though. I enjoy having fun and really enjoyed playing Halo 2 yesterday. I haven't really played the multiplayer so getting to do that with five people was pretty damned good. I sort of wish I could have gone with Glen and Peter to play with Peters brothers LAN party for Halo 2 back in November. Moreover, I just feel like really playing games which hasn't happened in a while. Mario Tennis anyone?

I also met Chris (a friend of Peters and Glens). He's cool, kind of spastic at times but overall a cool guy to hang out with. And he likes anime, how can you go wrong? (Shut - up, Peter.)

Well, I have a class to go to in about twenty minutes so I'll be heading out soon. But stay classy, Sacramento. Also, tonight is 24. YEAH BABY!!! So happy. A'ight, I be out. Don't go hitting on cheeseburgers; man on sandwich action is wrong!

"It's a miracle, it's a miracle.
It's a miracle, it's a miracle.
It's a miracle, it's a miracle.
It's a miracle, it's a miracle.
And dreams are made of emotion."

Mood - spiffily happy
Today's Song - Smash Mouth - Holiday In My Head

...but I used it anyway.

In any case, how are you guys? Doin' good? Great! Now onto me!



Use this picture to imagine what I'm about to describe. Last night at work, I went to hand out this person's food through the window. As I'm doing so, this wan comes careening from the drive - thru order menu board area. The car slams into the side area where you see the word "rock." Apparently, this woman had lost the ability to break so she thought there'd be somewhere that she could stop in the drive - thru. She didn't want to hit the car in front of her so she just went into that side area. Funny thing is, she ended up making that rock slam into the car on the other side WHICH HAPPENED TO BELONG TO OUR GENERAL MANAGER. The woman's fender got all crunched along with the grill while my boss' truck has a big dent in it. Yea, accidents. I swear, last night was absolutely psycho. Lot's of goings on; if you feel inclined ask me later for full details.

In any case, today I got myself some sweet gaming shirts. It's surprising that I didn't have any yet until today. So here are two pics of the shirts I got:





I R Happy. And I go now! Later!

"And what you want, what you really need
are two different things wouldn't you say?
The line is thin between fun and sin
and we're all clockin' in for the day.
And our only care is what to wear.

Every day is a getaway
when all of it goes unsaid.
I got a holiday, a paid holiday,
I got a holiday in my head."

Mood - confused
Today's Song - Smash Mouth - Road Man

I don't understand why some computers can see the picture linking to the joint site between another member of the RvB forums and myself and some computers can't. It makes no sense. ESPECIALLY, when if you go here, YOU CAN SEE THE PICTURE!!! WHAT THE CRAP?! Atleast I specified the width and height so it doesn't ruin the sidebar if the picture doesn't show.

In other news, I'm looking forward to a good Super Bowl this year. Go Eagles!

"Road man didn't see the train man
until it was too late to slow the van.
Meanwhile, the band is waiting for the road man
who was crushed by his beloved sound system.

Road man slow it down
and you will get there safe and sound.
He says, 'No, no, no.
No, no, no.
No, no, the show must go on.
The show must go on.
The show must go... on."

Mood - semi - tired
Today's Song - Jimmy Eat World - Night Drive

I haven't updated lately because of my lack of access to the computer. My mother hates it when it's on so I just don't even bother anymore. Sorry guys.

Yesterday, I tried to find a system selector (a special device Gamestop sells that allows you to hook up a whole bunch of systems to one TV and select which one you want to use) but none of the Gamestops I checked (which was one of them) or called (which was three more) had the thing at all or didn't have the right kind (there's one specifically for HD TVs which I don't have). So today (later when I get up at like 10 - 12) I'm hoping to go check out more. But those will require major travelling via lightrail and bus. Wish me luck!

ClanBOB is back, but not "The Life of Riley." It's ok, they just got back and until they're ready I'll wait. Though I did get to read up on the few comics I missed before they went kaput for a while. There had been a few I didn't get to read and then the site went down and I was unhappy. Yea for me!

[HK - 47 voice]Random Interjection: It appears to me that I am completely obsessed with the new Jimmy Eat World CD.[end HK - 47 voice]

If you don't get it, then never mind. Anyways, yesterday I watched The Usual Suspects again. It's a very good movie and I enjoyed seeing it again after having watched it like years ago. Makes me think about stuff.

And before I go, the other night I had a dream where I was writing a movie script that suddenly went bad and someone was getting murdered. Well, in the dream I suddenly started humming this song and began drawing the motions of the knife being jabbed repeatedly into the victims back... AND THEN I WOKE UP!!! Now it's 4:13AM yesterday morning and I have this creepy music in my head. I can't get back to sleep for about 20 minutes! And to top it all off, the dog begins to scratch incessantly (had to look that one up) on my parent's door. So I was really freaked out for a while. Well, gotta go to bed. Later!

"Lay back baby and we'll do this right.
There's blankets in back we can use.
I'll start the car, but we'll stay in park
The cold can kill us before fumes.

Now's the right time for a good song;
got something to say what I can't.
Do you feel bad, like I feel bad?
We'll pour us a road, we'll both drink and drive.

Kiss me with your cherry lipstick;
never wash you off my face.
Hit me I can take your cheap shots,
leave you with the love we made."

Mood - extremely happy
Today's Song - Jimmy Eat World - Just Tonight...

Today I went shopping. I got a cel - phone carrier, a fannypack thing that carries a CD player, the new Jimmy Eat World CD (which explains todays song), and Mario Party 6. Good times... especially with what happened today.

First off, I was called out by the security at Target as a possible shop lifter. I know this because as I was leaving the store, someone calls to me, "Hey Josh!" I look up and there's this guy I knew from Sheldon High School. He tells me that his buddy had told him to look out for me. So when he checks the cameras, he says, "Dude, that's Josh! He wouldn't do anything!" I guess I gotta be more careful but it was quite interesting to see Jason there at Target.

Next event! Yeah, so I'm walking to the lightrail station at Broadway (almost directly after our phone conversation Glen) and as I'm turing the corner to the station this group of kids starts talking to me. They're all pretty young (like 15 at the oldest) and this one guy asks me how old I am. Long story short, they wanted me to buy them cigarettes. I tell them no (because I'm not going to help them get cigs illegally) and they get mad at me. Fun stuff.

So this new CD, pretty good stuff. Even more interesting, it comes with a second CD that apparently contains demo versions of all the songs. We'll have to see.

Well, I've got to get around to updating myself on all the internet stuff I've missed since my trip to Disneyland. Later!

"We'll never be the same,
never feel this way again.
I'd give you anything but you want pain.
A little water please,
I taste you all over my teeth.
Never again.
Just tonight?
Ok."
