Yeah, the previous owner of the cello actually sharpied on the frets. Not with black of course, but with silver... Some of it is still on there.

I should really do that. God, it's a bitch to tune, too.

Wonder if a fretted cello would work? Hm...
I'd like to be a decent musician, but if my current listening trends continue for a few months or a year, my current level of musicianship will be more than proficient.

Is this where the "don't fret about it" phrase has its origins, I wonder?

Wow...I just learned a whole lot.

Could be.

Fretted cello would probably sound like poo, Josh.

& so how does this answer my question exactly?

I don't think it does. I think that instance is covered by definition 3 or 4. Not sure, though.

I would think as much.

Just kidding. Bad joke. Too late. Too many beers. Missing my puppies (boarded for the holidays). Going to bed now.

Wait! Before you go, could you toss me a beer?

This reminds me, I should probably try to save my rum in case of New Years party with friends. I would be a hero.

An hero.

If I tried to drink it all myself, yes. but I don't intend to buy the farm.

I love that saying.

It is wonderful, but I'd think rural folk without land would find it demeaning. Fuck 'em.

They can go fuck themselves. Preferrably with rakes, or cacti, or something sharp and potent.

That's the spirit!

You've earned some lulz



Numbers 25:1
While the Israelites were staying at Shittim, the men began having sex with the Moabite women.

So many laughs...

Whoever made that:
1) has too much time on their hands
2) should marry me

I can't wait until they get to Revelations.

I can't wait til I get to sleep.

I'm heading that way very soon.

Me too, I think. I hope.

I was going to try to put in an epicly long movie that would make me fall asleep but my DVD player shite itself and won't work anymore.

What a load of shit.

Playing games on my ipod isn't even making me tired enough to sleep. I know that if I try, I'll just stare at the ceiling the whole time.

i randomly woke up a few minutes ago.

wtfff.

save it.

or, share conmigo.

If only I could e-share the bottle with you. I've had one rum and Coke out of the liter bottle, so there's plenty to go around.

I'm seriously considering pursuing a relationship with a straight-edge non-monogamist. I might have lost my mind.

i say go for it. i never thought i'd end up with my current boyfriend.

Yeah, I'm trying going to go for it. I mean, we hang out all the time and just connect, and unless I'm totally mistaken, there is mutual attraction. The new year will tell.

and what the fuck is with Myspace and making me type a Captcha every time I log in...

if there's mutual attraction, then eee! that's awesome. go josh!

the bf's coming out of a super bad year so 2009 is going to be a nice clean slate.

Oh yeah totally great...the non-monogamist thing is the only sticking point. I guess it allows for more freedom and less stress if you can handle it, but there's always the fact that neither of you are mutually exclusive. I'm just not sure how to handle that.

maybe there's a long conversation to be had and she'll see that uh, you make killer mixtapes and kick ass in general.

Lately I have been drinking and getting some vicodin.

i want a nice cold beer. a beer and then a glass of wine.

gah. it needs to be the weekend.

i'm off to bed boys, my body is screaming at me to get some sleep.

K get well rested.

Oh fuck yeah! This is totally true. I think of a lot of it is her past history. One of the first thing she ever said to me was: "I date assholes and then I make them cry." It's weird too because we lived 6 hours apart but our collective world is kind of small. My friend from 6th grade until now lives across the hall from her brother at college and several of our friends are mutual, despite not knowing it until we met. Eww, now I'm gushing like a 14-year old girl. shit.
