I leave later today.
I have my radio show later today.
I'm packing now.
I got three more cds today. damn that rocks. 21 in three days. as a result
i deleted 13 mp3s.
I think we're leaving to get back to davis on monday because both scott
and i have work/meeting on tuesday. that means i'll actually have sunday
and part of monday to relax without little punks.
I work with kids a lot...never woulda thunk it.
I, I, I. learn to start a sentence some other way.
I want to send my receiver to the repair center to see if they can do anything
about the very mild, only slightly noticeable, once in a while hiss on
the right channel...i don't think it's big, but i figure since i only have
to pay for shipping i may as well do it.
BS 2000 still isn't on sale...i want two, that's the max, but they aren't
on sale yet, damn!
next paycheck will pay for a new cd player...5 disc carousel...my portable
was freaking out the other day and i want a 5 disc changer too. my cd player
gets used a lot.
music is good. i like music.
updated cd list.
moment of silence for JFK jr.
okay i'm over it. i'll lose more sleep when jello biafra, marilyn manson,
or noam chomsky die. sorry to tell you.
cake cd is solid, but not great. i also got the godzilla cd and bob marley
- catch a fire, today.
the stanley kubrick films thereof cd is good. as is the u2 best of, cassius
1999 was a surprise (go astralwerks!),
chili peppers was solid, better than cake's, eminem was the most pleasant
surprise. nat king cole was pretty good too. oh and the tangerine dream
cd was good chill music...new wave.
nice mix i think...new wave (tangerine dream)...rap (whodini & eminem)....pop
(u2 and godzilla soundtrack to an extent)...oldies/vocal star (nat king
cole)...synth pop/electronica (cassius/source material cds)...classical
(stanley kubrick films cd)...latin (buena vista social club)...reggae (bob
marley)...indie rock/pop (bis)...metal/hard rock (ozzy, skid row, and jimmy
page & robert plant and godzilla soundtrack to an extent)...alternative
(chili peppers and godzilla soundtrack to an extent) and then there are
those that i decline to categorize....depeche mode and scott weiland.
i like.

updates and hits have been very sporadic lately. i'll get 6 hits a day
and then zero for the next two. i'll update two days in a row and then
not for another week. i won't update from the 24th through the 1st of august.
i've gotten 18 cds in the last 2 days, no joke. it rocks. a few days before
that i got 5. i'm out of space for cds so i'll have to build or buy some
kind of huge case.
i got a couple from the astralwerks label, the new red hot chili peppers
one, tangerine dream, ozzy osbourne, u2, skid row, elvis costello, buena
vista social club, depeche mode - violator, heart, nat king cole, bis,
eminem (good shit), whodini, and music from the films of stanley kubrick...to
name a few. those are the most notable cds. i'm pretty happy so far with
most of them. i've had barely anytime to listen to music though.
i had work today and i didn't wake up until about 2 so i didn't listen
to much of the new music. i have 10 hours of work tomorrow, but i'll get
back home around 9:30 since i get off work at about 7pm...bad travel time.
then i have the radio show the next day so i'll have to listen to that
music during that day. i think i might leave thursday night too. we'll
see.
i'll bring my cd player for the car though so scott and i can listen to
my new cds and i can get my fill before going off to camp for a week. the
kids at camp are going to be hellish.
tim, a client from work, left friday before i got a chance to say goodbye...they
leave so quickly. work tomorrow will seem longer without him, it did today.
rick rubin produced the new chili peppers cd...he rocks.
bs2000 is suppossed to be re-issued today, but so far it's not for sale
online.

per at bat McGwire still has more homers than anyone in both leagues in
the HR race. He's a pimp. His batting average is down a lot though this
year.
sammy sosa strikes out a LOT more and McGwire has about 40 something more
walks thans Sosa. I'd rather have Mark...he's the shit. besides there are
plenty of good outfielders out there, jeff bagwell is the only first baseman
who can honestly say he's anywhere near as good as McGwire, on this off
year.
i need to wake up in 7 hours.
cold is better, the cough persists slightly though.
marilyn manson's music is good, i'm dealing with it you should too.
bob dylan's music is good too, you should have dealt with that by now as
well.
kurt cobain's music is also good, deal with that one too.
i got a letter from helen thompson on the CA assembly after i wrote her
that e-mail about the colorado thing and attached my poli sci essay...she
wrote to say thanks for the letter and that she read the essay and of course
agreed with me that education is really important. i guess the world won't
end as soon as i thought.

so much for regular updates.
i worked 50+ hours last week and about 25 this week in three days.
i leave friday.
i want to see eyes wide shut thursday, but i might wait to see with dad.
seeing american pie tomorrow, probably.
only five hours of work tomorrow. ten the next day.
my first solo radio show was okay, next is on the 22nd. i'm sick, but getting
better it was horrible the day of the show. sleep has suffered because
of it.
i'm able to afford insurance so i need to hit up my dad for the car. we'll
see about that.
nothing spectacular. johnny leaves wednesday.
wish list revised is here.
7-4-99
all but two of my friends are at least 1.5 hours away. of those remaining
one has work the other has a quasi-boyfriend person. i'm over it.
music is good.
i plan on watching the summer of sam and then sneaking into big daddy after
that, or the vise versa, but watching both is my plan for tonight. oh and
eating something other than birthday cake and 'sticky buns' (really good
cinnamon buns without the white glaze all in a loaf and homemade = really
really good). between those two presents i think i can gain about 10 lbs
and rot three more teeth. thus i have brushed my teeth thrice today and
lifted a barbell a few times.
my show is thursday. i need a 120 min. tape, and i need to prepare a bit.
i don't think i'll have a guest which isn't a good thing, i.e. it's either
bad or somewhere in the middle.
that last sentence was as gay as grease. no the movie.
for the last three months i've spent over $100 a month on music. in june,
may, and april i spent more on music than on food. the good news is that
my cd cases are full. the bad news is that i can always get more cases.
the good news is that i'm making more money now. the bad news is that i
should probably start paying for books and clothes now. the good news is
that that bad news is good in the long run. the good news is that there
is more good news than bad news.
Out of Order by Thomas E. Patterson is a good book about the media
sucking. read it or you are a dolt, nimcompoop, and a fool to boot, says
James Carville.
