Man. I thought we were tight, JC.

I'm not sure it's cool that your birthday is six days before mine. Everyone should be mentally preparing themselves for the day of worship that falls on June 12th and now they might be momentarily distracted by you completing another twelve month cycle. Not cool man.

JC is tight man.  I don't actually believe in Tommy and therefore do not celebrate on June 12th.

Hi Blog Thread!

I have wanted to post in this thread for a while now, but everything significant in my life recently has been too big and grand and wonderful to convey in an internet post, or at least, I have not until now decided to dedicate as much time to writing such a post as would be fitting for the subject matter.

In the last month, I have (not necessarily in this order):

Graduated from the University of Pennsylvania with a BA in psychology
Turned 21 (finally!)
Seen the best live show of my life (Flaming Lips, pure magic)
Had the best sex of my life (repeatedly)
Had the most powerful spiritual/visionary drug experience of my life (I am starting a thread about this after I finish this post)

My life right now feels so incredibly rich and vibrant and wonderful that I find it hard to describe.  If, far in my future, I look back into my life and find that right now was the time when I was happiest, and that everything went downhill from here (which will not be true, the way things are looking), I will be OK with that, because right now is so impossibly good, and still in the process of getting better, that I feel absolutely no right to complain about life.  If I ever forget about that and end up bellyaching and carrying on about whatever suffering I might be undergo in the future, it will be my own fault and I will deserve whatever misery I bring upon myself by ruminating and dwelling upon whatever problems might arise.  I should know better than that now.

Long weekend away with friends - Friday and Monday.

Car overheaded after first 15 miles (topped up radiator and it was fine, but still need to find out why it needed it).  Then clutch linkage failed, and I drove the last 50 miles (including through one town) with no clutch.  I've done it before and am well practiced  :wink:.  Fortunately, I found this morning that the adjustment nuts had come loose, and simply vibrated to the end of the adjustment while I was on the motorway - it was a mere five minutes to find a spanner and fix it.

My wife wants to buy a new car, as this one is 14 years old; Yay!

Dear Blog Thread,

I feel special. I was the first person (i think) to refer to the last blog thread as dear blog thread and other people do it too! I have started a cool new thing! Hooray!

Now onto more me things. I luckily did not fail my math class this year! I was oh so scared because I did really bad this last quarter and was probably gonna fail the exam. The way grading works is that there are 2 quarter grades and an exam grade for a semester. If you fail two of these grades, you fail the class. I luckily only failed the exam and passed the quarter so I do not have to take summer school. I also got a fucking A on my English exam, the hardest class I have ever taken. Which makes no sense since I got D's for both of my quarter grades.

Enough about grades, now I'm gonna talk about Maryland/DC/Virginia's fuck all weather, as Manda mentioned in the photothread. On Wednesday, at around four o'clock, everything goes to shit. It is all nice and stuff and then it's like a fucking hurricane hits or something within a matter of seconds. I was at work at a pool, but luckily it is indoor. However the power went out so the pool was operating on a generator. An old guy fell trying to leave the facility in the storm and cut his head really bad, so we had to care for him and call an ambulance and stuff. It was the first real emergency type thing I had been involved with there since I started working last year. 911 was really tied up though and it took us 15 minutes go get through! That seems really bad. Then later that night, right as we are about to close at 10:30, the pump room goes to shit. I don't know what went wrong, but one of the hot tubs would not fill up. The next day, my Mother and I had to fight through car accidents and busted traffic lights caused by the storm a day before to only find out that the pool was closed, presumably to the pump room problems. And my internet was out, so I spent the whole day playing Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas cause I couldn't chat and shit in Gabblebox. And I am out 6 hours of pay. Damnit.

That last paragraph is probably really incoherent, since I blather about so much shit. If anyone cares I will try and sort out anything confusing.

And happy birthday Johnny C! (thats twice now! i win!) (also this is the longest post I have ever written)
