All Good 2007

Entertainment, music

I was thinking about something Laurel asked me.

“So did All Good change your life?”

Her timing could have been better as we were still at the concert when she asked this, but never mind that. Minds were blown, new outlooks were looked, and jam bands have jammed there way into my mind. I had a really good time out there. I think I would have a great time anywhere I go with Laurel, but this was a really cool experience. It was awesome to get out there with so many people who all wanted to have fun, with none of the immature posturing and anger that I remember from HFS.

Laurel and I get along better than pretty much anyone I’ve ever met. I remember when she said that her outlook on life was “Every thing always works out, for me” Which is, word for word, something I actually said to Faith a couple years ago. (I did not get a good response) I just looked at her with a blank stare because I couldn’t believe how perfect she was for me.

Without Laurel I would never have gone to a three day concert/campout in the West Virginia mountains and I would never have known how much fun you can have out there. Before I might have wondered if there was someone I was missing in my life. She makes me wonder what I’m missing everyday I’m not with her.

weekend update – sometime in July

Life, Randomness

I’ve been really busy the past week or so. I haven’t had time to write anything on here. Here’s what went on.

  1. Went to Vegas for Ben and Peter’s joint Bachelors party.
  2. Started working on the Cardboard Boat for this year.
  3. Working on two side Art projects for Will and Ellen.
  4. Gave up on Amar’s project because he’s too demanding/ can’t describe what he really wants
  5. Had a kick ass joint birthday party with Frenchie at the house!

Hopefully I’ll have time to elaborate on some of these.

Later!

They say there's no excitement for the Simpsons Movie

Entertainment, Movies

Well i don’t think there has to be that much excitement. People are buzzing about the Transformers because there hasn’t been any good transformers stuff in 20 years. But the Simpsons are still on TV,  if you want to see them you just have to watch any Fox affiliate from 5-7 every day.

But I just watched the final trailer for the movie and here’s some buzz for you. It looked awesome, the animation was above normal TV level (even Futurama!) and the story looked good enough to carry a feature length movie. It’s going to be sweet!

Update Albo still a douche. Rust also douche.

Washington Post Article

A quote from Albo

“My job as a delegate is to make people slow down and build some roads,” Albo said. “This bill does both.”

No dumbass, you can’t do both. The intake of money comes from the fact that people aren’t slowing down and thus have to pay your insane fine.

Also.

In Virginia, the fee can be paid over three years. After the first third is paid at the courthouse, the other two are to be billed by the state Department of Motor Vehicles. DMV officials have not determined how that will work, a spokeswoman said.

So this law goes into effect in 7 days and you haven’t even worked out the payment details? Stinks like you snuck this into a larger bill because there’s no way this would pass on its own. OH WHAT’S THAT? You tried to pass this bill before and it didn’t work. I love politics!

OH WAIT, I fucking hate politics.

Still pissed off…
