8:01

Well my bones have been successfully scanned and I didn't mutate or anything, which is kind of a let down.

I guess I'll get the results in about a week or something.

The birthday was fine, aside from the scan. I had to wait three hours after getting the injection so that it could go through my body and filtered through my kidneys or some shit. So I had to drink a lot, but in the meantime I hung out with my mom and it was fun. She bought me some stuff including the new Explosions in the Sky CD, "all of a sudden I miss everyone" and it's quite excellent.

So go buy that one.

Yup. Not much else to say. I feel drained.

I think I'll go lay down somewhere. You kids take care.

hey, jesus.

I'm kind if tired of feeling like crap. I went to the doctor a few days ago again and got yet another blood test and am now booked for a BONE SCAAAAAN (you have to say it like you're a monster truck announcer)

it sounds like fun. I understand they shoot me up with some kind of RADIOACTIVE material that allows them to be picked up by some machine and scanned more easily.

I can tell I'm going to have a blast. I hope to mutate and get super powers as a side effect.

That's on Tuesday, which means it will be the best birthday present ever.

Only some of the above text was sarcasm. Some.

You know what's great about driving home early Sunday morning? no traffic.

I had the Rabbit up to 150 and it didn't even break a sweat. My other car felt like it was coming apart at the seams if I broke 115. I'm still surprised at how much power is packed into that little thing, or at least how much you can feel it.

Anyway I hope that goes well. I just wanted to mention I'm sorry I haven't really seen my friends for a while. It's just hard when you constantly feel like crap, or you know you're going to later on in the day/night. It's just been easier to stay home and sleep or sit and watch TV.

I hope we can all hang out soon though. Yes even you, Tracy. My nemesis.

junk

Well, I'm not much of an anime fan. I sort of dug it at one time, but grew tired of trying to sort out the awful from the good.

There's so much crap like Dragonball that it really wasn't worth it to me.

Last week I purchased Ergo Proxy. I had remembered hearing about it somewhere and so just grabbed it and took a chance.

Holy fucking shit though, I just watched four episodes of what is probably the greatest animated series ever. It's like a mix of Blade Runner, Mad Max and some other futuristic movie together in one orgy of goodness.

Basically it takes place in a futuristic city built up after an Apocalypse, there are crimes and killing being committed by robots infected with some virus. And also there's some creepy looking monster who seems to be controlling it all. It's about one woman who is trying to get to the bottom of it, but gets caught up in what is some kind of government conspiracy. Oh yeah and she's hot.



The Art style is amazing (reason enough to watch this) and the soundtrack is just as good.

Anyone looking for something cool and different should look into it. Unless you're the type that can't get over the fact that you are watching a cartoon, in that case, go fuck yourself.

Also for anybody that liked Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind, do yourself a favour and rent/buy The Science of sleep by the same director because it is equally as awesome and imaginative. It's about a guy who really can't tell the difference from his dreams and real life, and they seem to get all mixed up, then he meets a girl and they get even more mixed up.

It's one of those films that touches on all emotions. I love those.

Bonus badass wallpaper:



Now that's a money shot, kids.

time to chew the fat.

Well, time to update this shit I guess.

Finally feeling better I think. I go a few hours feeling like shit, and then feel almost normal for another few. It's a cycle that I'm tired of, but it's better than constantly feeling like hell.

I went to the doctor a week or so ago and finally got some antibiotics, which I don't think did a whole hell of a lot to be honest, because I still felt like shit, but after being off them for a few days I feel a bit better, I think.

I'd been having weird chest pains and shit. I was told several times that it is not my heart, nor my lungs and that therefore, it is probably nothing very serious. I was given a breathing test the last time I was in, and in the end they couldn't tell me what was wrong but I was given one of those asthma inhalers to try and use when/if it gets real bad.

I was also told it could be anxiety/stress related. I don't know about that.

I also did my dental stuff. It was the first time I'd been there in about 8 years, and just last week I went back in for my one filling. that's the first one I've ever had, it was weird.

So that's done, maybe for another 8 years. I don't have the prettiest or neatest looking teeth, but I was told they are perfectly healthy and that's good enough for me. I got some fancy X-ray and am supposed to set up a consultation with a specialist for a better look at my wisdom teeth I guess. He said it's not a real rush, but sometime within 6 months would probably be wise. Meh.

I still hate dentists, but the truth is it's never as bad as you think it's going to be.

Oh yeah, I got a new bed too. It's a queen size and so it takes up a good 70% of my little room, but my god is it comfy. Kind of big though. I usually scrunch up into a ball anyway, but my parents paid for it so it's fine by me.

Well, over and out for now.
