I am Joe’s Cold hands….

Gawd, it is a nice day outside and I am cold as hell. Anyway, I feel pretty good considering that I am cold, I got little sleep cause Justin decided to clean his room or something last night after midnight, and I am very hungry. I really wanted to goto Bayside Cafe for breakfast, but I really need to save money. So, I guess I will heat up my lunch (seasoned rice) and eat now.
Went to the new Target @ Serramonte mall last night. It is so crazy; there are 3 Targets within a 3 mile radius. 2 of them are just across the freeway from each other. I wish that they would have put in a Wal-Mart instead. Maybe once Kmart closes, they will open a Walmart there. Anyway, I did good in not spending money on things that I don’t really need. O.K., so I did buy some silk Tony the Tiger boxers. I will have to take a picture and post it on LJUndies.
Well, lunch is ready.

I am Joe’s Dedication to work…

Tim and I finished our 3hr defensive driving class. Yay us. Anyway, Tim went home and I came back here just in case something needed my attention. So here I am, hardly doing any work, instead daydreaming and thinking of stuff that needs to be done.
Foremost is the Grad Announcements. I have a list of 52 friends, enemies, lovers, and teachers compiled. Will have to work on list, cutting some people and adding in others. Def. will have to finish tonight so that I can order them this week. I’m not invitiing all of these people to my graduation, I just want to announce my graduation to them. Not sure what the protocol is.
Alot of my friends never graduated from college. For some, it was personal problems, and other just seemed not cut out to attend college. Not that this is a bad thing, since all are doing fine without a college degree and making way more money than I am. Sometimes, I just wonder if all of this was worth it; if I should have just given up on getting a degree. Will this degree in history make a difference in my life. And then, there is the ever looming question of “What Now?”
Anyway, it is almost 5pm and my dedication to work foes only so far.

I am Joe’s Alcoholic tendencies….

Have been reading and drinking water, which is good. But for the last 15-30 min, have been thinking of fixing myself a drink, probably raspberry Puckers and either white grape or strawberry juice. I really want something harder, like a coke flavored rum, but Puckers and Midori is all I got. Well that’s not true, I do have the chocolate cherry liqueur which is 50 proof. But I try to use that only for cooking.
Anyway, the biggest thing is if I want to go out and have to associate with Justin. That sounds bad and it is bad, but I know that he is going to get me riled up if I have to talk to him. Either that, or I will bust out laughing thinking about his “houseboy” pics.
Well, at least I got to talk to my girlfriend, got some reading done, and cleaned up some of my paperwork. What I really need to do is to make a list of people that I need to send grad announcements too. I need to get them ordered, with the limited funds that I have. **sigh** I really need to give my check card to Suzanne to hold for me. Can’t believe that I spent so much money. And I still have little in my savings acct. Poop. Hmm a good poop does make things better. Off I go…

I am Joe’s stinky house.

So I get home to a house that smells like burnt chocolate. And since someone left the heat on, the whole house smelt(?). I want to blame Justin, but not sure if Justin has been home, thought I heard him leave last night. It could have been David, cause he comes home at lunch time sometimes (I think). Anyway, at least my room is decent smelling again.
Just watched Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. It was pretty good. The animation was a little spotty in some places, but the story was excellent, if a tad predictable. It was interesting to note that Melissa Joan Hart and Henry Rolling had voice roles. Not surprising is Mark Hamill, as he seems to be in almost every animated movie. Anyway, debating over watching Final Fantasy:The Spirits Within, Hackers,reading, or doing some computer work (a.k.a. play Diablo II)
I think that I will read and wait to see if my girlfriend will call me tonight,
Hahaha…..Any “Dad’s” looking for a “Son/Houseboy”.Hahahaha
Current mood: relaxed

I am Joe Hoboing it inside my office…

Right now I am toasting my fingerless “magic gloves” on the heater, trying to get them nice and warm. I wish I had my camera to take a pic of it.

I am Joe’s boredom at work…

So I’m bored at work, even though there is stuff for me to do. It’s just that I am cold here and I am waiting for Mark to come back with In-n-Out. So I am poking around, entering random shit into google and seeing what it spits out. So I enter Justin’s (my house mgr/ house mate) email address and this comes up:
Son/Houseboy seeks Generous Dad for Friendship/LTR. HAHAHAHAHA That explains ALOT of things about him.
Hi Men,
I am 25, 6ft tall #180lbs 32wst Brown Hair Hazel Eyes Gay White Boy, 7″cut, Bubblbutt 180lbs, 32wst. I think you better put down that pipe and keep stomping on that treadmill.
Bwaaaahahahahahaha!!!!! This is too funny. I better get back to work.

I am Joe’s broken license plate

So I hear this car starting up and I just happen to take a look outside and I notice that my front license is hanging on one screw.
So I go out and check and this older Filipino couple is trying to leave in their Mercedes. They got scared when I came back out with a pen and paper to take their license plate number. The guy got out a flashlight for me to take a look at it. I told them it was all right and let them go cause I pretty sure it was the Mexicans who parked in front of me earlier that hit my car. It didn’t look like there was any damage, but it was dark and too cold for me to really stay outside. Hopefully, it is just that the screw came off and there is no other damage. I hope.
**Goes back to adding phone numbers into new cell phone**
Current mood: geeky

I am Joe’s Midori Drink

Highlights of today include getting a new cell phone from MLife a.k.a. AT&T Wireless. I got this phone first, but went back and traded it in for this phone. The new phone is still charging, but I hope that the sound quality is better. So once it is charged up, I can enter my phone book and let everybody know my new phone number.
Also plotting on finally getting web space here at Dreamhost. Am trying to hold out until I actually have a web page desinged and stuff, but I really need a new email address. My Yahoo account is overrun with spam.
It’s St. Pat’s Day and I should be getting ready to go out drinking with Mew somewhere. I guess that tradition is over now that she is down in SoCal. **sigh** I really will miss Mew. I know, it’s not that long of a trip to visit her down south. But it was an easier trip to go up to Sacramento to see her.
Justin is home stomping around. I don’t think that I will understand or every be good friends with him. He is just too gay conceeded. I’ve tried talking to him and being friendly to him, but it’s just all about him. Oh well, I tried.
**sigh** Too many thoughts swirling in my head, not sure which ones should stay in my head, and which I should release onto my journal. For the moment, I guess they will all stay locked up in my head.
Current mood: nostalgic

I am Joe’s Dream

I was in this house with Suzanne. I guess it was our house; a one story house with a huge backyard, kinda like he house that I used to live in at Petersburg Virginia. There are a whole bunch of people there and there is this noise outside. So I go out to the side of the house and there is this bush/Shrub on the side of the house. There is something wrong with it, so Suzanne comes out and we start trimming it with some regular scissors. We trim the sides and the roots and everything so it look kinda like a penis. Suzanne’s Dad comes over on a tractor/lawn mower to help, but we are already done. SO he starts hinting that he need a new tractor and stuff. Suzanne’s Mom and sister Kimberly, come over and hears this. They start rolling their eyes at Suzanne’s Dad, and they tell us that they will finish it (the trimming/pruning?) on Monday. So then my side of the family start to show up coming around the side of the house. I guess my grandfather is sick and there is something wrong with his foot, cause people are helping him and he is walking slowly with a crutch. He has on two different pairs of shoes on; one is a burgundy dress shoe, and the other looks like a black steel toe shoe. So I go up to give him a hug and I start crying. He asks me what’s wrong and I can’t speak or anything, I’m just crying. He asks me again and all I can say is “Grandpa, I’m graduating. After all this time, I’m actually graduating.”
Then I woke up, with tears running down my face.
Current mood: crying
Current music: Sound of the heater in the house.

What else? Saw on the

What else? Saw on the news today how people on depression medication went psycho and killed people. Yet another reason that I don’t want to get on medication. I was put on Welltruburn a couple of years ago and ended up losing my memory. I misplaced a $150 CD player at work and stopped taking the drugs. Have tried St. John’s Wort, but could never tell if it was working or not.
I do need to goto Kaiser though, if nothing else for a physical.
**yawn** Enough fluff, I need to clean my bed and goto sleep.
