My cat

June 28, 2008

As I was sitting just now and surfing the internet, (which is what I do with pretty much all of the time that I’m at home) I looked over and saw my cat staring at me (which she does a lot) and I began to wonder how weird it must look to her. I’m just sitting here, staring for a long time, sometimes hours. I hope she doesn’t judge me. I wanna shake the shit out of her and yell “I HAVE A LIFE GODDAMMIT”. That’s all for now.

Oh my

June 26, 2008

So, I just had a pretty weird thing happen. I was hanging out with a good buddy of mine, who lives in Urbana, a little East of myself. We had a couple of beers, but no one showed up to kick it with us, so I was walking home with a nearly full 30 pack of PBR. This is roughly a twenty minute walk (if you’re out of shape like me), so by the time I was about five blocks away from home, I was pretty tired. As I was cutting through a parking lot, I see a car drive by, and as it’s driving by, the driver whistles and waves at me. I have no idea who this person is, but thinking that it may be someone I know from work or the Canopy Club (wishful thinking since I needed a ride, plus I was only a few blocks from either of the two) I turn and wave. I watch intently as the car is driving away. While I’m standing there with my attention to the car, it turns and starts heading back. I’m thinking “Great! A ride! Or even better, a girl who… nevermind”. The car pulls up, and I realize it’s a guy I’ve never seen in my life.

He looks at me and says “What’s up?”

I’m a little confused for a split second, before I realize what’s going on. I don’t really know how to respond. I say “Uhh, not much. Just walking home.”

He looks at the beer I’m holding and says “I see you’ve been partying tonight”. I might add that since he pulled up, he was tugging at the crotch of his pants, while trying to clear the passenger seat of his car.

At this point I realize I need to set him straight. I respond, (rather awkwardly, might I add) “Hey man, I’m not lookin for what you’re looking for. When you waved at me and turned around, I thought you might know me, so I waited for you to pull back around.”

He looked a little embarrassed and panicked, and replied “Yeah, I turned around because I thought I recognized you.”

I bid him adieu with “Good luck with what you’re looking for.”

He drove away pretty quickly.

I would like to add that I have nothing against homosexuals, homosexual sex, cruising, or guys looking for other guys to suck them off for money (or whatever the fuck just happened, I’m not really sure, I’m still kind of confused), but this situation creeped me out a little bit. But it was also a little flattering. At least I know now that if you’re trying to pick someone up, you have to whistle at them. That will come in handy.

 

My Landlord

June 17, 2008

After getting my bike checked out by my landlord today (I live above a bike shop) and watching him rail on a kid about bike maintenance, I was telling a coworker about it and he told me about this video. Those of you know Bruce probably know that he was being pretty tame in this video. Bruce is awesome.

New Blog

June 12, 2008

I got this blog at the suggestion of my brother Chris. I haven’t been able to blog since I self-pwnt my myspace a couple of months ago. I think this will be a lot more suitable, as I don’t really care for the social networking sites anymore. I wouldn’t expect too much from this blog… just occasional updates on what I’m doing, a few rants here and there, and a lot of images and Youtube videos.

I found this video the other day… I think it might be one of the best videos ever put on Youtube. It’s the second in a series of three, but the first one was flagged, so I think you have to log in to view it. I’d highly recommend checking out all three.
