I was offered 10,000 cash to marry this girl from the philipines because her parents want her to get paperwork and stuff to get into the US or for citizenship or some shit, and so want to cheat the system. It's a niece of a co-worker of my mothers or some shit. And after she gets her stuff done, they pay for the divorce. How Crazy is THAT.
Of course I said no, I'm really NOT that type of guy at all. I've heard of people doing that kind of stuff, but wow. Didn't think it would come my way. Plus, I don't want the divorced title so damn early in my life, xD If at all.

Something very nerdy: My roommate's birthday party is on Sunday, and where a lot of people are having exams at this time its hard to get a big group of people together, so about ten people are coming over and we're playing a murder mystery game about a lighthouse keeper who was shot to death. We all get cards beforehand to tell us what character we will be playing and what to wear for a costume, I'm the lighthouse keeper's "delicate and frail" daughter who is a little off her rocker. I have to wear a white dress and look "ghostly".
Its going to be hilarious, I can't act to save my life (I can't help it, I can't keep a straight face and I giggle a lot) and being drunk won't help either. Kimmy's supposed to be an old murder-mystery writer and our friend Shawn is a nefarious sea captain, not sure who the other people are going to be.

Right now I'm wearing the shirt in my profile pic and that pic is at least 3 years old. Most of my T-shirts never make it this long.

It reminds me of Happy Tree Friends...only not animated
I don't know what I expected, something like a talking muffin maybe?

I'm never watching laser eye surgery again.... Fucking christ they put a metal ring around the iris to puff it out so they could run this thin blade over top of it to slice off a thin layer of the iris. They then peel back the layer of iris to expose the cornea and mark spots on it so they know where the thin layer goes back when they're done.
They then take this pulsating laser that shoots 50 beams per pulse to burn in the perfect shape to make the cornea see 20/20. The doc doesn't do much as far as surgery goes with the laser, the computer is pre-programmed to give everyone the same 20/20 shape.
But seriously... watching a thin piece of one's eyelid sliced and peeled back. Fuckkkk... then after it was over they just fold it back over like it never happened, apparently the suction from the eyeball itself, the pressure of the muscles or whatever the hell it was sucks the thin layer back on top of the eye and it seals itself shut.
Laser eye surgery is intense!

Newport News's finest
They recently did an event called Walk a Mile in Her Shoes to raise awareness and funds for the local abused women's shelter and there are a lot of photos floating around that don't say anything about the event so there have been more than a few people wondering why so many of Newport News's finest are fond of high heels. The event was actually a pretty big success and certainly did manage to get a lot of attention despite almost nonexistent advertising.

I have my new glasses. I got my mother to order them through my old optician, because my old optician is the only one I know who's heard of and carries this particular brand. She sent them over, and I've had photoreactive lenses put in them.
They are... and yes, I did get them just for the slightly 'goth' value... Bauhaus brand. They also damn snazzy and I think they quite suit my face, much nicer than anything of a similar style that my current optician was offering for the same price.
So now I have contact lens for Whitby, new Bauhaus glasses that can double as sunglasses because of the lens type, and a couple spare pairs in case I lose or damage these, or don't want to wear them to something.

Some customer at the store yesterday gave me a hard time over some lyrics I'm writing. 1. You don't read a musician's lyrics unless you ask for his/her permission. 2. There's no law saying a musician can't write about jerking off to hot chicks is there?

1 is a matter of etiquette- it may be rude, but it's not prohibited. 2 is also a matter of etiquette- you can write what you want, but you might want to consider what you're writing in public if you're touchy about it being read.
Mind you, if you're at work you're probably also meant to be working instead of writing lyrics. Is it that hard to put your arm over them if someone's nearby and might be looking?
(says the girl who spent an hour cutting out paper doll chains of dancing skeletons and Cthulus)

When there's work to do, I do it. When I have customers, I service them, check tem out... in both sense of the word, depending on how hot she is. There's alot of time, though, when it's dead which is when I write lyrics. If I knew she was here I would've been more business like, but I was in the back stocking some of Milks' favorite cookie.

I'm happy because my Battle of the Books team came in first place at semi-finals today.
I'm also amused that our moderator commented my Cure patch. Turns out we went to the same concert the last time the Cure were in town. ^^

Duane, shut up.
I used to think you had a chance at not being pathetic, but you don't.
