So here it is, I've gone and done it.
FRIENDS ONLY
COMMENT TO BE ADDED
I don't think I'll get any comments on this since I don't put any effort into the LJ communities I'm in, so it's up as a formality. In any case, if you've stumbled upon my LJ somehow and are interested in reading about my life for some strange reason, just leave a comment and I'll add you. The friendslock isn't so much for the general public as it is for other people I know in RL that I don't want reading about my personal life. So if I don't know you, I'll add ya. Go for it. Seriously, you can write something like fhdsjfgdshgbjhrdgbjrd in the comments and I'd still probably add you. I'm not exactly picky.
Just putting this out there: I probably won't be able to comment on your entries, if at all. I make a note to usually respond to every post made on my LJ, but I don't nearly have the time to go through and read everyone's posts anymore, as much as I'd like to. So feel free to comment on my entries, but unless you link me to a certain page, chances are I won't know too much about you. Really sorry. It sucks, but don't go into this with any expectations. :)
I'm always willing to talk to new people, so if you wanna chat just hit me up. I'll talk about anything, really. Good times.
Anyway, this is long winded enough. Have at it. Nothing's changed, really. Just making my LJ formally f-locked. It basically was anyways, but now it's formal, I suppose.
Rock on.

The Writers Strike: Why We Fight.
I'm a little late on the uptake, but I still wanted to give a shoutout to the writers. While I'm bummed that some of my favorite shows aren't going to be airing, I totally support the WGA. Fight for what you deserve, guys!

I love how computers are such intuitive machines, and yet peope are too dumb to figure them out.
Had a guy come in this morning to the shop. Said he couldn't connect to his dial-up internet (Dial-up. Ew!), and that he needed help with it. So we ask him what's wrong. He says, "I'm trying to connect to the internet, but it's not letting me. I think it's a firewall."
So, here's me sitting here, already cringing. I ask him if it's a work-related firewall, or if it's his personal Windows firewall at home that he thinks is giving him the trouble. He says it's personal. Okay. I ask him a few questions about his firewall settings.
"The settings? Oh, I... I think I disabled the whole thing a few weeks ago."
Well, if it's disabled then it can't possibly be a firewall issue, sir. "But it has to be! I can't connect to the internet!" Then...it could be a connection issue, not a firewall. Have you made sure all of your jacks are plugged into the computer and into the wall? "Yeah, everything's fine, it's just that I keep getting this stupid message every time I try to open the internet!"
A message, you say?
"Yeah, it says that my subscription to AOL has expired and I need to renew it. I have no idea why AOL isn't letting Windows access the internet! How am I supposed to subscribe to the internet without the internet?!"
The phone is a wonderful, wonderful invention.
/headdesk
Why can't people learn to read instead of making me deal with their issues? Stupid people keep my uncle in business, I swear to God. We've had a least three computers come in this week that were 'fixed' by some people's friends, and now they're useless.
"My friend took out my motherboard and said it was a piece of junk, so he smashed it with his face, and now for some strange reason my computer doesn't work! OMG HALP ME I NEED MAH PR0N!!1!"
...sometimes I just don't understand people.

So, ah....Dad's birthday party last night.
It was really nice and fancy. Carolyn set it all up, which was really sweet of her. We took a nice limo for a drive around the town. We drank. A lot. And we did some karoke (after the 'lots of drinking' part) and then we went to a really nice restaurant out in the middle of God-knows-where, and had some really great food. Then we piled back into the limo, dropped of Grandma Marci and Grandpa Larry, and then drank some more and did some more karaoke and basically partied till midnight.
Good times. We had lots of fun. =D

So...just saw Thursday's episode of The Office yesterday, and MAN I loved it. I know the show's come under some scrutiny lately because of how it's been handled (the whole camera crew aspect being thrown to the curb and stuff like that), but I can't help but love it. don't think I've enjoyed the storytelling of this show more than I have in these last four episodes. Sad Dwight, Jim and Pam, Andy being crazy-go-nuts...it doesn't get any better. The Office does better storytelling and drama than most drama shows out there. Those writers are amazing.
...I love Garbage! <3
And the Schrute farmhouse was just about the funniest thing I've ever seen ever. Dwight reading Harry Potter = WIN.

( Just Finished Deathly Hallows )
And yes, I figured it deserved its own blog. I spent a good part of my life waiting to read these books, and I wasn't about to let the last go unreviewed.

So, Harry Potter comes out at midnight.
Do I care much? No.
Am I going to go down to Barnes and Noble and buy it anyway? Probably.
Will I read it the second I get it? Signs point to no.
I'm going to stay off of LJ for a while. God knows the internet is going to explode later.
The whole family is in Hawai'i right now (lucky bastards), so I've got this BIG OL' house to myself tonight. Kinda awesome, if you ask me. Erin and Dan are going to bring me over some soda and popscicles, so I'm gonna be set. Tonight, it's gonna be a PvP party. I'll be on WoW if you need me. =D

Just finished watching the first part of Overdrive's anniversary teamup episode and OH MY FUCKING GOD.
...I think I just shat myself.
AMAZING.
Screw Harry Potter; this shit takes the cake. I'd take Tori, Kira, Bridge, Xander and Adam over Wonderboy-Potter ANY damn day of the week! WOO. FREAKING AWESOME.
EDIT: Seeing Erin Cahill on On the Lot always makes me smile. Every time she's come on I've been like, "SHE WAS A POWER RANGER, GUYS!", and it gotten to the point where, when we have extended family over and we're wathing TV, my uncle Jeremy will tell everyone that she was a pink ranger and I won't have to say a thing. Hee.
It was pretty awesome, lol. I heard her voice, so I walked in to see the mini-flick and was plannng to be all quiet about it, when Jeremy turns to my uncle Mike:
Jeremy: "Hey, she was a Power Ranger."
Mike: "No way, she's hot!"
Jeremy: "I know. It almost makes me want to watch the show. Hah."
Me: "She wore a tight leather outfit once."
Mike: O.O!
Jeremy: "E-mail me the link, kid!"
...I love my family. =D

Happy 4th of July my fun happy American friends. And to the non-Americans, well...have a great July 4th. =D
Yeah, I haven't updated in a lonnnnnng time. Well... not too long, I guess. But still, long enough.
I love WoW. No, really. I <3 it. Druids ftw. =D
^ That game has totally taken over my life. Jesus, I suck. Hah.
Not much has happened to me lately. Just being a bum, I guess. Jeremy was supposed to look up something about an application for me to work as a temp for Bank of America, but he went on a business trip, and it kinda fell through. I guess I'll just look for work somewhere else. Heh.
Life is going pretty good right now. Can't complain.

Haven't updated in forever...
So, had my graduation party. That was fun as all hell. A bunch of people came and we swam and went out on the lake and just generally had a good time. Fun times. I got some money, and a really nice ring from Grandma Marci. It's white gold with three rubies and a diamond.I love it so much. I have to wear it on my left hand's ring finger though, since it won't fit on any other finger than that one. So it looks like I'm engaged or something. Heh.
I got an 80GB iPod with some of the money I got. It's so shiny! @_@
Went to a gaming convention with a bunch of people on Friday and Saturday. I left really early on Saturday because I freaking died. I didn't get any sleep for two days, and it kinda caught up with me.
Spent both days with the Kingdom Hearts crew. It was fun, as usual. We had elevator dancing parties and just basically hung around. As a con it freaking sucked, but there were fun people so I still had a good time. Rick went and it was his first con, so that was pretty cool. He had a good time, and I'm glad.
WoW has oficially taken over my life. I took a break from it earlier and wrote another chapter for my fic. It has basically no plot, and is getting soap opera-ish, but I'm having fun with it, so screw continuity. =D!
I love Overdrive. I can't help myself. Tyzonn's hair needs to be shaved off, but I still can't help but like it. And it's weird, I love the name Mackenzie for a guy ranger. Or just any guy in general. And how you can shorten it to Mack so it doesn't sound like a feminine name is really cool. When If I have kids, I'd want to name them something like it. Original, but not so stupid that the kid gets made fun of.
Mack is cool, but Mackenzie as his full name is just...I dunno, I'm geeking out over it for some weird reason. But I like it. A lot.
...I'm done. [/ramble]

I GRADUATED!
Heh. Go me.
It was a great time. I didn't cry at all until Bryce came up and started going on about freshman year and how he was going to miss everybody. Stupid Bryce. I was doing so well, too!
A few of us went to Denny's afterwards. Heh, that was some good times. We had to eat really fast because Project Graduation's cut off time for sign-in was 11:30, and we got to Denny's at 10:30 or so. Still, it was fun. Angela and Brea threw a soda at Matt's car, which was shitty, but he had to go get it cleaned anyways, so... no a big deal. Doc paid for my dinner, which was super awesome of him. Seriously, he's got to be one of the sweetest people I know. And not just because he bought me dinner, either. He's always been really kind and inspirational to everyone. I'm just sad he was only my band director for a year. I really admire him. He's done so much for our band program. <3 Doc.
Anywhoosle...Project Grad was cool. I didn't win any of the good stuff, but that's not a big deal. =D I got a $25 gift certificate for California Pizza Kitchen, and a car maintenance kit with a gift card for Sun Devil Auto Shop. I also got $25 out of the money grab machine. I only managed to grab 5 bills, but all of them were 5's. Heh, I win.
I got a gift bag with a whole bunch of stuff in it. Mine had a gift certificate for Blockbuster in it, and I traded some guy the Blockbuster card for his entire bag of stuff. His bag had an alarm clock in it and I've needed a new one, so yay!
The whole party was a great time, though. They had tons of food, and a lot of games and stuff to play. We got raffle tickets from the games if we won, and I ended up with around 75 tickets or so. Not like it did me any good. But still, I had fun. It was a great way to spend the night. But when 5 in the morning rolled around, I was dead tired. Good times.
In other news... I've been conned into playing World of Warcraft. Shoot me now, guys. ^_^

Well, that's the first time I've ever been nudged to make a post. Heh. Now I feel all special. That's kind of a cool feature. Go LJ!
So...graduation. Tomorrow. Rock on! Actually, I'm more excited about Project Grad afterwards. Yay for partying until 5 in the morning. =D I get the chance to win some awesome stuff (42" plasma TV, $1000 cash, another laptop, etc) so that should be some good times.
No more high school... weird. It's good though. I'm pretty stoked.
In other news, PR still runs my life, been writing more of my fic... y'know. The usual. Watched Man of Mercury II last night. Saw Behind the Scenes on jetix.tv too. MoMII was just okay for me. I'm still totally LOLing over Ronny freaking out in the command center. And Mack looks totally gorgeous in civillian clothes. <3
Behind the Scenes was good. I was hoping the the reporter lady (Jessie?) was Mack's mom or something, since we still don't have a backstory on that. Suck. And San Angeles is a horrible name. Flashpoint Megazord, however, is a KICKASS name. ...even though SirenBuilder still sounds better. I just can't win. But seriously, this episode = win. Why? I was laughing like a maniac when Tyzonn was writhing on the couch. Talk about HILARIOUS. Whooboy!
Yeah, I still hate Tyzonn. =D (And I finally know how to spell his name correctly!) Well...no. I won't say hate. I just want to set Dwayne Cameron's wig on fire. Loved the silvery contacts of his though. I want a pair. Eiji is still sorely missed, and even though Tyzonn's uniform is pretty damn neato, Eiji's SGS jacket would kick its ass any day of the week. Love the shiny. Love it.
Finally watched Boukenger vs. Super Sentai today. I'm a little behind the times. =D I really need to go rewatch Hurricanger. I was -headdesking- the entire time. I've never seen Aba or Deka (I would certainly like to. There's gotta be a torrent around SOMEWHERES!), but it was cool seeing Tsubasa and Hikaru again.
...mostly Tsubasa, though. I love him too. <3
I'm just kinda rambling now. I am such a Sentai n00b, lol. Im going to go cry in a corner and rewatch Space. Andros is my favorite girlyboy. Looking at him always makes me feel better about myself. =D
Does anyone actually read this crap? Sometimes I wonder why I even bother having an LJ. Heh.
Good times.

I'm sitting here, watching....and Joe just isn't the same. I miss Steve. Steve was awesome. ...and he had better fashion taste.
So depressing.

I'm watching Time Force again. I haven't seen it in forever.
I forgot just how much I love that series. Ohman. Wes and Jen are amazing. Love them!
...and Trip! =D
And I seriously can't get enough of Overdrive. I love the cast this year. They're not as awesome as the Dino Thunder cast, but there's just something about them that I just can't help but like.
Is it Monday yet? Sheesh. I hate having a couple two-parters in a row. While I love that they're actually giving the Mercury ranger a lot of focus, I'm always left waiting for the next week and it bums me out. =D
Mercury ranger...meh. I miss Eiji already. D=

A new season of Hell's Kitchen is coming up! YAYYAYYAY.
Is this normal? Being so psyched up for a damn cooking show?
Well, I don't care. I LOVE THAT DAMN COOKING SHOW. =D
Watching people get yelled and screamed at and making people cry...oh, that's television gold right there. Gordon Ramsay is my hero. No lie. <3
I'M SO EXCITED!
