Movin' on up! To the eastside!

Actually, I'm movin' on down. Downtown, that is. Like I mentioned earlier, I needed a place to move. Well, this past Monday, my friend at work was all like "Hey, man, whatcha doin' on Thursday?" and I was all like "Goin' to look at an apartment" and he was all like "You're lookin' for apartments?" and I was all like "Yeah" and he was all like "I'm lookin' for a roommate" and so I'm like "We might have something here" and he was all like "I'll pick you up tomorrow, and you can come check it out" and I'm all like "Sweet" So, Tuesday we go, and I check it out. 3 bedroom, third story apt, right outside the heart of downtown Portland, with an ocean view, free laundry facilities, and basic cable and internet, for only 325 a month? "Fucking sold" I say.

I move in at the end of this month/the beginning of the next. IR excited.



 

My cuffs are bone dry!

So, I found out 4 days ago that I need to find an apartment or a roommate pretty much immediately. This is due to the fact that the rest of the family has to move back to AZ to take care of my ailing grandmother, who's Alzheimer's has taken a turn for the worse over the last month. It sucks (mainly for the fam, who love it up here. Mostly for grandma though), but sometimes life likes to throw you curveballs. Anyways, I'm already getting responses back from prospective roommates, which excites me as usually when I'm in need of something right away it never happens like that. So, I'm gonna keep searching until I find a place, and remain optimistic that this happens quickly for me.

Too broke to pay attention

I have been sucking with my money lately. By this time, I could have already had a down payment on a car, or a deposit on an apartment. Instead, I've bought a buttload of books and DVDs in the past few months. That's what I get for working in a place that caters to my interests, I guess. Really though, it's my own fault. And the worst part is, I haven't even got a chance to watch and/or read a majority of the things I've purchased recently. Okay, that's a lie. I've had plenty of chances. But whenever I have a day off though, all I want to do is sleep or play on the internet. I need someone to slap me from now on, every time I make a frivolous purchase that prevents me from moving up and on with my life. Otherwise, I'll never get back out on my own.

 Or I could do that. Thanks, Mitch.

I wanna take you to a kung fu movie.

Something I'm working on...

Maybe some day I'll actually write something that means something. 'Till then, here's this:

I keep it intellectual, and just a little sexual
Standing out, above the crowd, while still remaining next to y'all
It's true that I'd been slackin' off, but now I'm back to crackin' jaws
I'm swingin' like a wrecking ball directed by Sam Peckinpah!
I'm just like a detective, yo, I'll find what you desire!
Like Dylan, I spit fire! Self appointed and anointed, yo, I'm hip-hop's new messiah!
My words'll get inside ya, forever they're remaining true
You know I'd be a liar, if I were to say to you
That I've got time for amateur, close-minded fuckers slammin' doors
Not concerned with glitz and glamour, action, lights, or cameras
Godzilla versus Gamera, with fifty times the stamina
's how hard I fight my way upstream, ahead of all the salmon, uhh!
