I haven't posted her in like, five months. Holy shit.

Anyway, too much stuff has happened for me to want to retype it here. Go to my LiveJournal.

I have a simple point of view
No obsessions I pursue
I'm a poor man, though I do not need a thing

I have a wealth of another kind
Opulence is state of mind
I'm a poor man with the fortune of a king

All I cherish, all I hold
Precious to me is not gold
Treasures of the heart
Cannot be bought, cannot be sold

No, I am a pauper in paradise
Though I have nothing, I don't complain
I am a pauper in paradise
Better this than a king in chains

I have no treasure more revered
Than the life I've persevered
I'm a poor man with the fortune of a king

All that I've wanted, all I've yearned
Is this peace of mind I've earned
Measures of the heart
Cannot be taught, cannot be learned

No, I am a pauper in paradise
Though I have nothing, I don't complain
I am a pauper in paradise
Better this than a king in chains

------------

And important reminder for me. Thanks, Dawn.

北川景子さん! やめて! 私にならないでください!

That having been said, I feel like I've hit a wall. My situation (me living at home not making any money) weighs on me more and more heavily each day. I'm usually lazy and content to sit around and waste away. But in the last week or so, I've really wanted to find work. It'd basically be a little cash flow thing while I write music. Pay-the-bills kinda thing. I know the kinds of places I wouldn't mind working (as long as it's not around food -- my long hair sheds all over the place), I just wonder if they'll actually accept me. Hell, I applied to four places a few weeks ago, and none of them responded. And here I thought the city was desperate for workers.

Anyone out there have "Pauper in Paradise" by Frozen Ghost?

3:15 AM

I'm glad that between the time I sent Drea the lyrics to "We'll let you in", the words themselves didn't change too much... The latest edition.

You're either on our side
Or casualty
There's nowhere to hide
That we can't see
We don't really care
For the truths you have learned
We're coming to get you
And your weather will burn

CHORUS:
If you're meek, or weak, we'll let you in
If you've got power or money, we'll let you in
'Cause nothing's stronger than dollars through thick and thin
We'll tear you all apart just to get one man

The world's a desert, and it's ours to shape
With our fifty star tree
We take while we claim to liberate
Getting your lives for free

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE

We are the power
That you can't break
If you are not ours
Then it's too late
People living so frightened
In our atmosphere
Of all of their nightmares
It's us they fear

REPEAT CHORUS TWICE

And now...

A long survey I stole from Drea and used to rant about my crappy life.

L A S T P E R S O N TO:

1. Sleep beside you? I guess dogs don't count as "persons"... so Kristine.

2. Saw you cry? Mom.

4. You went to the mall with? Mom and John (My brother).

7. Said 'I love you' to you and really meant it? Those three words specifically? Sara.

8. Broke your heart? Yuko. Not that she could do anything about it, though.

9. Made you laugh? Wes.

A R E Y O U. .

1. Simple or complicated? Simple on the outside, complicated on the inside.

2. Gay/Bisexual? Straight in preference, bi in practice.

3. Hardcore? I'm a nearly 27-year-old failure. I'm not hardcore about anything.

A N S W E R T R U T H F U L L Y !!

1. Do you like anyone? Romantically? Yes.

2. Do they know it? No, and probably never will.

U N I Q U E

1. Nervous Habits? I fidget with my jacket zipper or scratch a sudden itch.

2. Are you double jointed? In my fingers.

3. Can you roll your tongue? Yes.

4. Can you raise one eyebrow? Yes.

Things You'd Like to Know About Me but Never Thought to Ask


1. Have you ever been searched by the cops? Nope.

2. Do you close your eyes on roller coaster? No.

3. When's the last time you've been sleigh riding? I've never ridden on a sleigh.

4. Would you rather sleep with someone else, or alone? I don't know. Rockie's all the company I need right now.

5. Do you believe in Ghosts? Yes. I see and sense them all the time.

6. Do you consider yourself creative? In that I have created, yes.

7. Do you think O.J. killed his wife? I don't care, it's his business, not mine.

10. Do you know how to play poker? Depends on the kind being played.

14. If you're driving in the middle of the night, and no one is around you, do you run the red light? Me, driving. The image itself is laughable at best. If anyone ever sees me driving a vehicle, they should assume it's an evil alien twin and KILL IT ON SIGHT.

25. What talent do you wish you had? I have the talent I wish I had.

26. Do you like sushi? Don't eat it very much. Besides, American sushi is nothing like the real thing.

28. What do you wear to bed? Boxers and a t-shirt.

29. Have you ever been caught stealing? Yep.

30. Does size matter? I would think so, yes.

31. Do you truly hate anyone? No. If I spent all my time hating, how would I have time for love?

32. Rock and Roll or Rap? Rock 'n' roll.

33. If you could sleep with one famous person, who would it be? Whichever one I would have been in a relationship with for a year or so.

2:43 AM

I cannot, even with my excellent command of the English language as well as the level of my linguistic skills, even begin to convey to you all just how much I detest my video card.

For those who don't know (which is all of you), my video card and I have been at war since Christmas (You'll have to go back to read about the GeForce 6 that never was). This video card isn't so great. It's an NVidia GeForce 2 GTS/Pro. Not only does it come with one loud fan built on, but it's escalated the war between us as the months have gone by.

At first, it would simply freeze Firefox randomly. I guess having something depend on it to render text and 2D images was just too much for it. But now though, it's really escalated the battle.

It has now taken to freezing my entire system whenever it feels like it. And yes, it has happened when I've been in the middle of a task. It froze when I was making my LJ post the other day. It froze yesterday as well, when I was in the middle of programming Hydrogen to do the drums for "Inside of me".

When Cory comes back (in the middle of May), he and I will set out to upgrade this thing to a non-defiant little bitch that knows when I'm around, to stay in fucking line. I don't need this bullshit aggravation. I'm already pissed off enough as it is.
