Wow. Peep at the bands that are going to be playing this year. It doesn't even seem worth sneaking in for, if we ever could. And paying $30 to see Dropkick Murphys is insane. Just a bunch of really bad generic MTV emorock stuff. It makes me want to barf.

Mehhhhhhh. It seems so damned bland.

Speaking of sucking and asses.. read http://www.seizureandy.com/stuff/guts.html

It's fantastic. Pretty goddamn gross, but still fantastic. And ... seizureandy.com is funny too, if you're one of the retards like myself who is amused by seizures.

I have to write a paper by tomorrow and I've gotten to a point where I can't think of absolutely anything regarding the story.

We have a huge project due in Ecology tomorrow. Since Lorin is going through some "rough times" which I am not sure of what they are, I told her that I'd do the project. I waited until the night before. Which is now. I CAN'T FIND THE PAPER THAT SAYS WHAT ALL WE NEED! SHE GAVE ME HERS SO I CAN'T JUST CALL HER AND ASK! OH MY GOD!

I had it right by the computer and now it's not here! I don't know what I (or anyone else, god damn them) did with it! Oh shit shit shit. It's fucking huge! Oh god.

I think I'm going to barf and kill someone. Note to self: Scan important papers into the computer so when I fuck up, all is not lost.

Enough typing, more searching!

Edit:: I found the paper. I've spent the entire evening working on it, and if I have to type "Africanized Bee" one more time, I'm going to barf. Oh, but in the end I put that picture of the cute little Blind Melon bumblebee girl.. because really, what is a Bee presentation without her? Anywho, there were some things I just couldn't find, so Lorin will just have to deal with that. I've gotten so fed up with the project that I just don't care anymore. Bleh.

Hahahahahahahahaha. I was bored and decided to join a couple LJ communities, including that one about John Edwards and John Kerry lovin'. I posted that picture that I drew of John Edwards riding a unicorn naked and the one of John Kerry on Nader's lap. It's neat, people are like, "Wow that's neat" and I made a Live Journal friend. WOW!

Ugh. I'm not supposed to be up but I am and I've been looking around at the Modest Mouse communities on LJ and I want to cry because I want to go to their show so freaking bad.

I'm awesome and actually cried. I just love them so goddamned much..
I remember crying when Against Me! and Anti-Flag were at Mississippi Nights a couple Decembers ago.
I need transportation
and friends who do not think that Modest Mouse is the gayest fucking band ever. Laura said that they should just have tattooed "FLAMING FAGGOT!" across their foreheads. Laura is funny like that.

Today I went to school. Wow. Laura and Kat chased each other around the room, Laura trying to poke Kat. While I thought that it was kind of stupid and annoying, all the really snotty "preppy" chicks did too, which led me to laugh at them. This one chick that I don't know, who is a complete and utter ass, was like, "Uhm, okay, you can stop now. It's really annoying." Haha! Little does she know that it is actually her who is an annoying retard day after day! Haha!

I talked with Molly about how weird the whole John Kerry thing is. She told me that she's kind of the same way about Yu-Gi-Oh, which made me feel better.

After school, I almost stayed up there with Lorin. I didn't know if my mom had to work though, and didn't feel like being up there until 6 something, so I just went home. Then I went to the library (sort of) with Anna. When we got there, we discovered that it was closed. Haha. It was funny in a way. We then went to Walgreens where some guy was reading the "This phone is tapped" sticker that we put up. Wow. As I told Anna, if my heart could have an orgasm, it just did right then.

Jake sang a song today. Why I remember that I'm not really sure. It was funny and cute the way that he did it. Tee-hee.

I'm getting a B in English Com. I don't understand that... it's really easy stuff for me, and I guess that it's so easy that I just give up on it and don't care. In English 2 I don't know what I'm getting, but I got a 34/35 on that Quiet Man paper that I wrote. I only missed one because I forgot to use vocabulary from the story. But I got sixes on everything which made my life. I've never, ever done that before on a paper, especially for an honors class. I think that that means that someone owes me a cd.

I talked the Modest Mouse shirt thing over with my mom. She agreed to get it for me because I seriously need more color in my wardrobe (going through a phase of black baggy band shirts left me with not too many colorful clothes) and I've been a good little girl lately. Hooray for being a good girl!

Ohhhh man. I have to drive tomorrow morning. I completely forgot. Oh... fiddlesticks. I don't want tooooooo.... I feel so nervous-y pervous-y about it. And you know what? Tomorrow morning I'll probably want to shit my pants because I ate Pizza Hut pizza earlier and that doesn't go well with me. Haha. Me = super extrememly feminine and totally discrete.

Tomorrow, after hopefully not fucking up on the driving, I hope to be having Lorin and Lydia over. Lorin will be coming over to work on our project on Killer Bees. Fucking killer bees! Argh. And Lydia because... I don't know. She just will be coming over for kicks. I called Lorin and told her to call me back on her answering machine and ...she didn't. In her defense, it was like, 8 when I called, so she might have been doing something important, more important than my retardation.

Pap needs the computer for important stuff.

Hello. Today was a really happy day. I got licked by some girl that I've met... twice? before. It was neat. Her name is Tara, I believe. I think that's what Bertelzoid told me. Laura told me today that I can just be there and make someone feel better. She was like, "Yeah, someone could be suicidal and about to jump off a cliff, but if you ran up and started talking about the lady in the wheelchair, they wouldn't jump." I don't know about you, but I took that as a huge compliment and it brightened my day.

Last night I whipped out the Hot Hot Heat. Oh my goodness. I had forgotten all about them.. They're going to be on Loveline tonight. Then I whipped out American Idiot and remembered why Green Day deserved that Grammy. You can sit there and be all, "OMG U POSER GREENDAY IS SOOOOO CORPORATE U FUCKIN LOSER GO LISTEN TO CRASS OMG." But that won't change the fact that Green Day is awesome.

Our group in English Com finished up the presentations today. Man oh man. I hate giving those goddamn presentations with the time limit things. I mean, if someone just got up there and gave you the information in a good way and it wasn't ten minutes long, that doesn't mean you don't get the information. If someone keeps dragging it out, you start daydreaming about driving to Oklahoma, what you're going to wear in Oklahoma, who you're going to see in Oklahoma, and about borrowing your grandma's car to go through Oklahoma. And then you don't remember anything at all! Glory! Jake and I agreed that we probably did okay on it. It wasn't anything terribly special, but it got the point across and I got to make fun of George Bush in a very low class way.

Oh, tee hee! I have ordered Against Me!'s Crime, a Ghost Mice cd, and an Abe Froman cd. Fifteen dollars to Plan-It-X Records. I hope they write me another letter, it makes me so happy when they do. It's like a reminder that there's still awesomely nice people out there who care enough to sit down and write you a letter. It restores my faith in humanity.

I watched a thing on that Discovery Times channel (A very good reason to have the special cable-ness) about Nazis and the occult. Nazis in general fascinate me; not in a "Man Nazis are cool huhuhuhuh heil Hitler!" thing like what Steve has going on (seriously, what the fuck is up with him putting masking tape swasticas all over the doors upstairs? Am I the only one that's extremely creeped out by that?) but a "Wow they're interesting" way. Yeah. There was some thing with these rallies that they have going on, and some guy was saying that back then in Germany those Nazi rallies were really fun things. He was a former member of Hitler Youth! HITLER YOUTH! GOD DAMN! There should be an entire documentary on that; I'd buy it. But yeah, and they were talking about the symbolism and all that. There was some thing with torches at night where all the Nazis would march, and from way up in the air the torches made a huge swastica. It was really creepy.

Rise Against reminds me of the summer and going on the roof. It's cool.

Geoff from Defiance, Ohio emailed me telling me that I forgot to specify what size tee shirt I wanted. Haha oops! I suppose I forgot that. I emailed him back, hooray!

Started giving our presentation today in English Com. For part of my powerpoint, I talked about internal interference in the communication cycle; stuff like prejudices or sickness or both. I decided to go with the prejudice angle and I used the whole "freedom fries" thing. I had a Frenchman in a Frenchpeoplehat and George Bush, and a thought bubble coming from Bush saying, "Yeah right, like I'll ever listen to a dirty ole Frenchman!" It was cool and the Mrs. Mainer was amused by it. She was like, "You just had to get your Bush bashing in, didn't you?" As a matter of fact I did.

Mrs. Mainer also turned Bertelzoid into the counselor because of a journal entry she wrote. Now Bertels has to go somewhere for depression after school today. She's pretty pissed off about that. I think that maybe she shouldn't have written about it in her journal, but it still sucks really badly.

It is cold and windy and unpleasant today. It was beautiful for the past two days, but now.. Oh no! We can't let you have that much fun with your windows open! ...That's right, I think that having windows open is fun. I know I rule, you don't have to tell me. There is something to be said for sticking your head out the window and listening to Bob Dylan when the weather is so pretty.

I'm going to go look for a place where I can relatively cheaply buy The Plot to Blow Up the Eiffel Tower's cd.

HOW THE FUCK IS IT THAT THE PICTURES THAT STEVEN TOOK OF HIS FUCKING SELF AND THE FUCKING CHRISTMAS TREE WITH MY FUCKING CAMERA COME OUT FUCKING PERFECTLY, YET THE ONES OF STICKERING DO NOT COME OUT AT ALL!? AS IN, I DO NOT RECEIVE THEM!?

I want to cry so much.

I called Walgreens and they explained to me that some of the pictures did not come out correctly and therefore I did not get them. I'm trying to think if I ever dropped the camera and I don't think I ever did. Steve wasted like, 1/3 of my pictures on himself trying to look gangsta and the fucking Christmas tree. I do not give a fuck about the Christmas tree and I definitely do not want to see that douchebag's face where my fucking Crimethinc should be. GOD DAMN! If all the other pictures fucked up and we just got a few of the Crimethinc ones, I would be fucking happy. I can't help but think that if that fucking asshat hadn't gotten his filthy fucking hands on my camera that I'd have Crimethinc.

ARGH. SO YEAH, NO FUCKING THIS PHONE IS TAPPED.

Haha. Today I was talking with Anna on the phone and we were discussing how crappy of drivers we are. While I was talking to her about our crappy-ness, Mr. Wolk (I don't know who that is) called and asked if I was available to drive on Saturday. It was a kind of funny conversation, at least, according to me.

Me: HELLO!?
Him: Hello may I please speak to Amanda?
Me: Well my goodness that's me!
Him: Uh.. okay. I've called about driving-
Me: Oh wow! Me and my friend Anna were just talking about that! Hahahaha.
Him: -no laughing at all- Right, can you drive on Saturday at 9?
Me: Well I don't know, probably, let me ask my momma!
Him: Okay.
Me: Okay it is fine...

The rest of the conversation went on in a normal way, but I learned that I will be driving a red Dodge Stratus (Does that help me at all? No.) on Saturday from 9 until 11 with Mr. Wolk. I'm pretty sure that's his name. I don't know him.

It just struck me as really funny the way that I was all "HAHAHAHAH!" and he didn't laugh even a little to make me feel better about being a spaz who laughs at everything. Oh well. Maybe he was having a bad day and didn't feel like making retards and spazzes feel better about themselves.

By the way, the sunset was really pretty this evening. I took a picture of it with my mom's camera. Speaking of pictures, I shall be getting them tonight. I am very excited and if I am able to, I will scan them in so everyone can be like, Damn, what an awesome person.

All this warm springy weather has made me in SUCH an awesome mood. Like, extremely joyful ALL THE TIME. It rules.

Going to the library tomorrow. Again. I went tonight and got 2 books! I did very well, I think. Tomorrow I am going to request A Clockwork Orange and Chronicles: Vol 1 by Bob Dylan.

I'll also pick up my pictures. My mom is making me pay for them because she thinks that $8 is an insane price.

I opened my windows and aired out my room, and it smells wonderful in there.

It's awesome, I promise. The first one is funny no matter what your political persuasion- listening to liberal weiners yell "Shaaaaame!" at police officers is funny. I also like the girl who started yelling, "POLICE BRUTALITY!!!" in true liberal weiner fashion. Gotta love 'em. The second one has a catchy song to go with it and you can't go wrong there.

I'm rather bored now. I'm going to go to the library later on and return a book and look for:
Blankets by Craig Thompson
Post Office by Charles Bukowski
Cash by Johnny Cash
On the Road by Jack Kerouac
Chronicles: Vol 1 by Bob Dylan

I reckon I'll find one, maybe two if I'm lucky. I'm going to go outside and frolick merrily.

Done frolicking. It was fun. My shoes are muddy. I peeped in some of those rating community things, and after looking through some of the applications, I wondered why someone would try to be accepted in the first place. It confused me and all.

My soccer mom neighbor called looking for her son. I didn't know who it was and Steve was coming in the door, so I was like, "HELLO." Usually I'll stick a question mark or exclamation point on the end of it, but this time I was pissed off and afterwards I felt rather bad. She didn't do anything to me, she just wanted to know where her boy was.

So.. today is Valentine's Day. Even though.. I'm still up.. and stuff.

Okay.. I learned a few things.

1.) Anti-Flag will not be on Warped Tour this year. We're never going to see them, ever, Anna.
2.) Modest Mouse is sold out. Even if I ever got a ride, I'm still fucked. Thank you very much, MTV. I like the fact that people who only like Modest Mouse from Float On and the Ocean Breathes Salty get to see them but deserving folks like myself and Anna do not.
3.) I have developed a weird crush on John Kerry.
4.) New look. I like it, do you? Bob Dylan likes it.
5.) If you buy non-frosted Pop Tarts, they don't have gelatin in them.
6.) If you think of all the guys involved in politics as gay lovers, it makes it a lot more interesting. The Democrats, Greens, and other political groups on the left are more flamboyant about it, or rather, embrace it more. The Republicans (and other more right-wing groups that I don't know about) are not so big on it. More in denial, you know? Tortured over it. And really, who wants to think about Bush and Cheney going at it? The ones in the center are pick and choose. Since politics is pretty much male dominated, you don't have to worry about the girls in politics because there's just not as many mainstream ones.

AWW! I want that patch! I'd just print it out myself, but that seems like a cheap crappy thing to do, as someone's only asking $.75 for it and it's for a good cause. I'm waiting to buy anything from Microcosm Publishing until that big diy zine thing comes out.

I drove my mom and myself up to Sacred Grounds today. It was uneventful. Then I drove us over to Target where I got some more Snapple. On the way out to the van, I saw a Kerry-Edwards bumper sticker, which always puts a smile on my face, but this time, it was even radder. The background was rainbow! RAINBOW! There was also a ranbow sticker with a = underneath it. I officially named that car my favorite car ever, even beating out the Kerry-Edwardsmobile that I saw in St. Louis. And that one was really neat.

I'm grounded right now. That's why I haven't called anyone or done anything worth doing this weekend. The reason that I'm grouded is because of a C in English Com. I don't get it - I get a B in Hon English 2 and then get a C in English Com. I'm not supposed to be on the computer, but my pap is working on taxes upstairs and will not bother me in the basement.

Apparantly I melted my mom's tea pot by putting it in the dishwasher last night. Whoops. Speaking of whoops-es, getting my mom something for her birthday completely slipped my mind. I'm going to need to go get her a Jethro Tull cd. She likes Jethro Tull a lot. After I do that, I'll put it onto a tape for her so she can listen to it in the car. Speaking of tapes, I redid one side of a driving mix tape. It's good now. One side has a bunch of crazy stuff on it, and the other has more folky stuff and also some Dead Kennedys.

Everyone needs to whip out the Bob Dylan. Or go buy yourself some Bob Dylan. I absolutely love this Bob Dylan's Greatest Hits. I like it so much that I changed my icon.

I've been looking around at some of the anarchist, anti sweatshop, animal rights communities on Live Journal. They're neat. A lot of it is "OMG 2DAY IS BUY NOTHING DAY!!1!11!! IF U DONT BUY NETHING, THE WAR WILL END!!!1!!!1111! 4 SERIOUS!!11!" but I also found something talking about how pointless and dumb that idea is without being like, "Yeah and fuck those anarchists and hippies get a fuckin' job!" The idea of consuming less is always a good one, one that I have major problems with and more often than not do not observe, but still a good one, but buying nothing for one day isn't going to end the war in Iraq, it isn't going to cripple businesses, and anarchy will not occur from your not buying a coffee from some Mom & Pop store.

Wouldn't it be neat if it could though?

Oh my goodness. I found the funniest and best thing EVER!
