I have been so busy it is retarded. Work is taking up wayyy too much of my time, even though it’s only 40 hours a week – the whole third shift business pretty much knocks me out and I sleep when I am not there. However, I do find time to do things still. I saw Episode 3 twice now so that is good. Last friday I played at this variety thinger which sucked, I didn’t get to play like I wanted to at all — very loud and awesome. Oh well, there is more shows where that came from. I have done much more than this but I am pressed for time because I have to go to work soon. Let’s see, got baptised, became a god father, ate burger king, realized I need to find a new job, began searching moderately for a new job, also need to get apartment. Too much crap to do. What I really want to do is buy a tent, go someplace where no one will no where I am and stay there alone for a week taking minimal supplies – fasting basically, from other people. I like people, but I need a break – I am too contained here, there is no where to go. I am going to go buy some star wars games for game cube tomorrow because my addiction has been renewed. I guess I have to go now. Take care.

I will write an actual entry later, maybe.

I seem to suck at writing in this lately, once a week seems to be about all I can do. I really just don’t have the energy to sit down and do it more than once. I guess I will just start by talking about what I did this week. Worked, as usual – I hope I can find a new job one of these days that pays decent and offers the same amount of hours and doesn’t involve me working in a crappy factory. Friday I worked some more then I went to my mom’s house and Aaron came and played guitar and I set up my new PA. It’s not the most amazing thing in the world but it was worth the money, it does sound pretty good. Unfortunately it was not much of a practice with my mom telling me to turn it down every half hour until we were reduced to very little volume whatsoever. Saturday morning my mom didn’t wake me up to get to my grandma’s burial service so I woke up and had to be there in 15 minutes. I hauled and got there in a half hour – which they all knew I was on my way but no one wanted to wait 15 minutes so I got there and it was over. I was very sad. My mom waited there for us to get there, I honestly just tried to not cry and said my last goodbye then that was that. After my sister and I went to my grandma’s house for the after gathering, my Uncle Ed and Aunt Betty were there which I was happy about. Uncle Ed was my great grandma’s brother who died and was burried that day. I took my sister to lunch because I told her I would and she didn’t believe me. Then we detoured through Batavia so I could buy another Jump Drive since I destroyed my other. Aaron came over to practice again but again, too loud so we went to a show in Batavia and only stayed a while – picked up Andrew B. and hung out at my mom’s house for a while. Then I went to sleep, got up for church and that brings us to today. First time in the choir, that was an experience. Then the dedication cermony of the chapel in the back, dedicated to my grandma and another meber of the church who died. I would type more but again, this computer sucks – it takes minutes for what I typed to show up because it can’t keep up.
