Last night I slept from about 11:30pm to 8am.

WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH ME?!

Being awake during the day has allowed me to do a couple things though (because lack of anything interesting happening online to distract me), for example I made a new sculpture. Now I just need a digital camera to document it with.

Also I've done a few webcomics, and it might become a regular series if i muster up the discipline to do so. It's about a family of evil Transformers (beast wars transformers, not the classic.. there's a bunch of reasons why, most of them just having to do with how the characters were first created. Anyway they're robots, and they transform into insects, okay?). By the way, these were drawn at my usual insane hours of the night times, not during the day, unless i had stayed up all night.

Jerkface (riboflavin.wox.org) has been erattic, evil.

Ok, about that last post. It's not talking about you, me, or anyone I know, and it has no deeper meaning besides that I thought it was kindof a funny quote. Geez, people.

"hm. well, it's not just that he sucks. it's that he's really more trouble than he's worth. he's smart and funny and is a nice guy sometimes, sure, but he also has a nasty habit of talking about people behind their backs and pretending that he likes them to their faces. and he uses people. and he's really judgmental. but also sort of he has no feelings. so, uh, yeah, that's basically why i don't hang out with girls." - Evelyn

Its amazing how much your sleep can be screwed up when you lose web access for a few days, and all you ever do is sleep and do stuff on the web. But it at least got me to do a few random web designs just for something to do. I need like a new hobby or something. Preferably one that pays money. In other news, pnaomi got cable modem hooked up last week, so my regular website is back up, albeit probably slower. Hm, lets see.. nope not much else going on. Keep getting invited to do stuff I don't expecially feel like doing, or going out to do (be tony's delivery boy, bughouse, poker, watching enterprise rerun), so i stay home. That just kinda sucks. Probably mostly my fault tho.

OK so teejay had a new years eve party, and it was really good. Also pretty big. Now i hate to be mentioning drunkeness in every friggin entry in this thing, but unfortunately I got pretty darn smashed at said party. Moreso than anyone else there by a longshot, it seems. I did not notice this, however, until it was time to leave. And it didnt help that a lot of my friends arent drinkers, dont really like hanging out with drunks, and/or had never seen me drunk before. So though I was having a good time, and I don't think being -too- obnoxious for most of the party, I think I might owe apologies to people for my actions in the last thrid of the night. I think. See, alcohol and clear memory don't mix very well, and the act of stupidity that those ive talked to noticed most I just vaguely recall maybe doing something like.. so in some cases the to whoms and what fors of apologizing arent quite clear yet (in others they are, i just havent seen the person yet). Hopefully im overstating things here.

oh and btw, i do know my limit, i just kinda forgot to pay attention to it that night. That last white russian with two shots of vodka at least, and one of kahluha (because it ran out) was a very, very bad idea. Good thing I spilled half of it.

Wow, did i last post that long ago? Well, as an addendum, we did learn most of those lessons two nights later, when we ended up at a bar full of girls who were way too hot to give us the time of day, but some of them were too drunk to remember not to give us the time of day. Somehting like that.

Ok, so on to what i was posting for, Lord of the Rings is good.. really good. Better than Star Wars, even. No, not episode 1, the original friggin star wars. The film only had one flaw, which was that the sound was out of sync for the last reel. That sucked, big time. I'm going to have to see it an additional time because of that. darn.

lessons taught, but not necessarily learned, tonight:

1. When planning an outing, always have a definite objective. Even if you're really thinking "head to this part of town, goto whatever bar looks good," tell others, "YES, we are going to Slaphappy's Pub on 3rd and Chestnut, at 11:30 sharp!"

2. When going to Olde City via car, use Market, not Chest-bomb-paranoia-roadblock-sends-you-all-the-way-to-friggin-south-street-nut!

3. Do not let the one whose decision making process goes (We go now! We're not sitting around my apartment any longer! To a bar!) --> (I don't see any bars I like here.. ooh, Pizzeria Uno! Hey, it has a bar..) --> (No pizza at pizzeria?! Evil! Let's just buy some steaks and go back to my apartment!) lead the outing.

4. Evan is a dope. However, one can't blame him for not wanting to wake up his parents for the third time and drive half an hour just to watch some drunks play video games.

5. I can, after all, become a bitter drunk.

And yes, I know a bunch of this is my fault. shuddap.

Somehow got thinking on the music site idea i had again, mostly because chuck was bugging me to do something, so i made a crude mock up of what i want on the average site page. That flash picture wont end up looking quite like that- im discussing how to map stuff with my resident neuroscience expert when i can find him on icq and not 3 minutes from going to bed. And don't let the .py links fool you either, i think now most of the frontend will be in php. Might need a faster, more robust language to do the mapping grunt work tho (not sure, have to research further), and then there the database.. ugh. Man, wish I had a linux box or three to play with.. and broadband to connect them to.. and a digital camera and.. AG! out, materialist demons, begone! I am so tired of breaking up fights between them and the demons of sloth.

Oh and that crude mock up and the site idea its mocking up are so copyright by me, all rights reserved, it's not even funny. Away, idea stealing demons! Oh, wait, looks like that internet economy crash killed most of you already. exxcellent. Maybe if it ever actually comes to be the whole website setup will be open sourced. maybe not. i dunno.

Alright, so one of the various options I'm considering is grad skool for architecture, and pursuant to that I decided now when I get some random idea for a building or whatnot, I should actually try and design it somehow. So i got this idea for a pyramidlike corner building that plays on the rules of perspective somewhat, made it in worldcraft/counterstrike (yeah "real" designing uses a real CAD program. I'll learn to do that some other time i suppose), and took screenshots. Well, I like it anyway.

Ha. My old netreach webpage is still there. And I can still upload stuff to it. So a bunch of my website, and the images i use for blogs and whatnot are temporarily there now.
