weekend update.

so i have had 12 views since starting this thing and 11 of them were me. so hello to my audience of one. big joy re the car: a loose wire from the dome light was draining the battery and was fixed for 36 dollars and some change. this compared to the hundreds of dollars i was expecting and unknown turn around time makes me unbelievably HAPPY. and get this: i took the car in thurs pm after hours, fri afternoon it is ready for pick up. but i work until 7, can i get it saturday? no were closed this sat. but i'll just leave the keys in the ignition you can pick it up tonight and just pay us on monday. !! only in small town america. i professed my love for the entire staff of rr auto shop repeatedly... oh and other good news- a breakthrough on my graphic design project. im not sure the class or prof will like it, but i love it. we are required to pick a topic from several listed in a newsweek article : "our greatest challenges". malnutrition & hunger, economic development, human rights & religious freedom (one of my original ideas-athiesm will save us) etc. im going with the environment--you know, we're fucking it hard, lets love it a little more and bring our own bags to the grocery etc.. spotlighting my inner hippie. yuk. but cmon people it must be done. btw- big congrats to al gore, way to go boo ya an allthat much respect yo. last night was spent watching ronin, eating raviolis, and drinking (one glass too many) chianti. kind of perfect. also had one cigarette which i regret. im averaging about one a week. ronin was a little slow to get moving, but not bad. implausible car chase scene. quite ridiculous. but bajeezus i do love deniro. all eras. looking forward to more of the same tonight. peace yo
