slow aim
As the week drags its feet, planning business of the most excellent LPMN, Trevor's shows I cannot make it to, and drinking. Yet on Wednesday, Jim apprehends me and drags me to the vaunted Barnes and Noble. He offered me a syringe, and I purchased AMERICA (the book), the NEW Bukowski, and Augustin Burroughs' "Running With Scissiors".
Meanwhile, I have Conceal and Carry certification coming up this Saturday, Armored Fire this Sunday, and our tax party next Thursday. A race through a SPANKING of fun.

everything but the tin foil hat
If anybody is interested in a Conceal and Carry certification class this coming Saturday, let me know ASAP. On that note, I have Sunday to look forward to, also--I am going to drag my hungover ass out of bed in the afternoon, head to Armored Fire to meet my mom and stepdad with Jim and Kari, and mow down some innocent people-shaped silhouettes.
Credit cards are getting paid off. Yay tax season. Dirty "fed'n'state" has been holding my money for long enough.
NEW phonecam PICTURES.
Poker was a sham. Only Will and Ryan made it, and as much as I love Ryan, he wasn't too in-on the game and seemed to zone out every time things got heavy. On a light poker note, Luke spilled an entire salad on his crotch right after his intricate mixing process.

As much as I wanted the last two posts linger, as they will with me for a good amount of time, I couldn't resist but post.
If you aren't encouraged by me to read Bob's blog, then toss off. I mean it. The 01/20/05 post is something I can throw back at alot of people.
Saw the second episode of TILT tonight. It's gambling-driven overdramatic soap. Tripe.

is stealing one sock as bad as stealing two?
Extreme and supreme gratitude to those who fed the feedback, Kelly and Ron. The the Evil James Johns for standing by in visiting.
Apologies to the distance in posts, but ohh, how it manages to waddle into precarious situations...
In all bluntness, regardless to some what may should be confidentiality, she came back not a day later with intent of reconciliation, and in a moment of shaking honesty, offered truth of something that happened this previous summer that left me in capital state. Don't ask me to elaborate. Longevity and dedication be told, the welding process begins, one leg on each side of cracked, shaky emotional fault line. This is no easy process without leaving bitter, jagged scars. Wish fortune for us--if I have any faith, it will be worth it.
The StateCon LPMN newsletter production has been a fury of troubled emails. Sincerest thanks to Scribner for your running and printing for us, despite this. :)
To some amusement, and I am having a hard time not having an aneurysm over this, a message a co-worker has displayed on our business-internal IM for the last two weeks, in incompetence, tries for a verb into what appears to have become a possessive noun. GAHHH!
drinks to the struggle!

sine die?
To those to whom it may concern, I "done been dumped" outside of my own cause or fault. Ergo, I am in dumps. Per original request, can a dumping be undone? As I have stated before, but to not many of you: a.) after the problem has come to solution, and b.) after the undone is worked for. The ultimate question is when will this *not* happen. Then will be my ultimate spiral.
Ultimate lesson learned? Never let your significant other leave state for a full week. Now I have more reasons to hate NYC than just the idea that it is entirely non-smoking.

rubik's cube weekend!
I don't care if it was only four days--another workweek to a close. I killed the six p.m. to seven p.m. hour at Rossi's last night, met up with a co-worker, Hillary, and we headed down to the shisha bar by 65 and 694 (Columbia Heights)--Pyramid's Cafe, I think. It was a neat experience, but they need some non-fruity tobaccos. What was not sat, though, was the flat Hillary picked up when we were headed back to St. Paul drop me off. Nice temperature you picked, too!
Beforehand, we rode the light rail to pick up her car. I feel dirty.
Last night ticking 'til Kari is back, and no wallowing--I am going to go butter-fry the night up with Nate, Dan, and Ryan. Wish I had more specifics, but why would I have to be specific?
And, if you all know what is good for you, you're reading Bob Smith.

week like ticker tape
I may have found a super lead on an incredible deal--a Kimber Ultra Carry. Babe, isn't it? The Caddy of personal protection. If it works out, I am sure we'll hear about it.
Cha'Perkins decided not to pay for his domain this week, I see.
With all of the Libertarian celebs who will be in downtown St Paul for Convention weekend (04/09/05-04/10/05) I should throw a liberty party. Liberty libations. I will be the two-block-away contact for most of the people staying. It'll be an utter thrill. ;D
Kari is still in NYC. I am waiting for the cement I have filled my interim time with to finish drying.
Jacq machine-gun today. Best mock-angst yet.
Kelly is chest-deep in DeLillo--I sent her my copy, as a few posts she has made reminded me of it. Despite the book having deckled edges, it was paperback [bleh]. Bravo, doll. Proud you're digging it. May you achieve a lifestyle of handguns, literature, and whiskey.
Staring down the smoking barrel,

The return of the Constitutional Avenger
Program weekend was a *great* weekend, though a bit more disorganized than last year. There weren't that many first-year Resource Advisors this year, so Luke and I snagged our own group of eighth graders for the weekend's training. I won the "Kerry 'Boyder' Boyd Award of Longevity" award again this year, being the RA who just seems to keep coming back. I'll be damned if I buckle to the push to regular "adult" Advisor. I will have to talk to Werm, the RA king, about being a Program Specialist.
I always am careful to keep my pointy Libertarian teeth out of the flesh of the students' discussions, but I couldn't help but leap off of the rostrum and issue a point of information when a student told the [LCP] House that the US Constitution quotes "separation of church and state". I kind of feel bad, as she was one of the better participants we had, but nobody should let anything like that slide. Luke later referred to me as a vampire-like creature who will swoop from the rafters to maim anyone who refers to the Constitution in a misquoted or misinterpretive manner, that can only be deterred by the noxious flatulence of Luke. This is true on many levels.
If you'll please excuse me, my feet are going to explode.

YIG weekend like the shark.
Last workday of the week tomorrow, and following that I will be at Youth In Government (confounded web site is down, as I post) as a Resource Advisor from Thursday the 6th through Sunday the 9th. I need to somehow detach myself from my semi-debaucherous lifestyle for four days. And heck, Kari will be gone for the entire week afterward, and I will have to fill my days with something. Sad, but Libertarian Party work and reading, assumed.
The Evil James Johns is getting prophetic. Well, Mr Johns, a certain insight can predict and stay ahead of the eye's movement, arms-up and in the epicenter, leaving wreckage in the wake.
The 2005 LPMN State Convention is going to be a juggernaut.

what?
Don't ask me about the New Years party, because the tenth of my brain in which I destroyed left a lot of holes in the evening. I am lucky that I can be in that state and even have the sober people tell me the next day: "you didn't seem that drunk..."
It isn't a party unless our pal Andy is making someone stand-off without his shirt on. Always something to look forward to. Some blurry pictures, since I can't remember. Take mind to the dates (12/30-01/01). Not much is clear aside from Andy's girlfriend, Angie, wearing my labcoat, and a picture of the skirt and the roommate, Luke.
The Evil James Johns has been MIA since Thursday. This is his special evil power.
Back to the horse tomorrow, and good ol' Youth In Government this coming Thursday through Sunday.

has his shirt off and is making someone put up their arms, though. Always something to look forward to.
