So here we are, at the beginning of another attempted all night session. Of course, we have the aid of soft drinks, possibly a cigarette if I could get one from Jon, and binge video games. Also, it will make sure that I get up and go to class tomorrow morning at 10:00AM. Ugh, terrible early. Ah well, it will just seem like terribly late to me. Of course, my steam could run out at any minute and I could be off in my cozy warm bed spending the night dreaming about whatever it is I dream about. Yeah that would be ne.asjf............. No, must remain strong, vigilant. No real reason why, just haven't done it in a while. And this lava lamp right here is very nifty. The cold is here and unfortunately I have no long jacket, or I could go stand around outside with no pants, although I can sort of already do that, thanks to my 3 inch balcony. Nothing much new to report, same old same old, school, labs, D&D, grocery shopping, comics. There we go, covered it all. I hope I mentioned class in there somewhat. Oh yeah, and 3000 minutes on the phone.

So it has been brought to my attention that there are actually still people who read this. Fantastic, I salute you. Not only the people I know mind you, but also all of the random strangers that seem to pop in. It gives me a nice ego boost to think that someone cares. So why the renewed interest? It's not just fame mind you, it is really because my typewriter is currently being borrowed which means that when I am struck with the urge to write something, I really don't have a way to let that out, seeing as how in this state my handwriting is even worse then usual and not even I can read it. So here I am. Hmmm, what news is there to impart? Well, I am finally pretty settled into things here in my fancy new apartment, although the room remains rather empty, according to the very tall man currently engaged in Dungeons & Dragons with us, which doesn't really brother me, I've got everything I need, the flag hangs on the wall, the record player is hooked up, and my addiction to World of Warcraft is back and as strong as ever. Now if only some fancy ladies would drop by. Instead all we get is a bunch of random guys knocking on our door late at night looking for the people who used to live here. Now I'm not really sure what kind of business they were conducting, but if I hadn't talked to someone for two or three months and found out that they had moved somewhere else, I probably wouldn't just go knocking on their door. Smacks heavily of a booty call. Disgraceful behavior, mostly because it means the ladies that used to live here were hookars. Oh well. I have become really accustomed to living with the people I live with, they are like a little family, which is nice because I can bum food off of them and not feel bad about it. It also means that I don't have to sit around by myself most of the time, since there are three other people living here. The fun part is they are all damn crazy, in their own little ways. Fantastic arrangement, plenty a night has been spent just hanging out in the kitchen laughing about dumb things and generally flipping out. Well, I really have sort of run out of steam, and it is never a good idea for me to force myself to continue when the feeling just isn't there. So yeah, I'm out, but I'll probably come up with something more interesting in the next few days. Stay tuned!
