Long day today
Friday, December 31, 2004

Long day today. I'm in a reflective mood. Not much could bother me right now (other than my brother starting to shoot baskets in the other room). Cue the baskets ... I started today off by waking up at 5am to be at prayer by six. I don't know what it is about EMP, but if someone needs a ride from me or I have to open up, I can't sleep. I wake up all night, it's weird. After prayer, #3 and I went to Taco Cabanna where this employee thought he needed to talk to us about something. We're still not quite sure what he was talking about. All I did was ask him for some cilantro and then he had this big long story. None of it made much sense. Something about 2 guys 2 trucks, he lives in Kerville and he said "what is this world coming to?" about five times. I didn't have an answer for him. All I asked for was some cilantro, but I enjoyed the conversation much better. #3 came w/ me to work today. People always ask what I work on. Well if you want to know you can take a look at http://destinychurch.cc/new03. That's what I'm working on at the moment. #3 and I went to lunch around 2.30 and ended up at chick-fil-a. I like that restaurant, they have some sweet sweet tea and the foods not 1/2 bad either. While we were there I hear this strange lady talking over my shoulder from the booth over my left shoulder. She says something like this in a real loud old lady voice "You know what the trouble is about being sixty and being in love w/ Rock and Roll? If I would have known I was going to live to be sixty I would have taken care of this body a lot better. I could strangle Bob Dylan right about now, even with my arthritis. And boy it sure does hurt on a rainy day like today. This comment has been brought to you by Pepsi" I thought she was on the phone or whatever so I looked at #3 and started laughing. Little did I know she wasn't on the phone but was talking to us. She probably wasn't too happy about me laughing at her. Oh well ... that was nuts. I got to take dad to get his car from the shop. I'm out of school right now and don't get to drive my car much, so that was a fun trip. After that it was studio session with our favorite band Abandon. This one dude I hadn't seen or talked to in a long time showed up w/ his new cd for me to check out in the middle of what we were doing. He dropped it off and it was good to see him. His cd actually sound really good, much better than I thought it would. I've heard my fair share of small studio projects, but I was pleasantly surprised. Here's a shot of where I was tonight.

Currently playing in iTunes: Piano Sonata No.14 in C Sharp Minor "Moonlight", Op.27 No.2, I. Adagio Sostenuto by Ludwig van Beethoven (1770-1827)

Thursday, December 30, 2004

I got on the computer about 30 min ago to post, but forgot to. I started browsing other web sites. After I got off I remembered why I got on in the 1st place. So I'm laying in bed posting this from my PowerBook :-D. I'm not feeling so great. I think its allergies, but I don't want to get a shot. My mom's given me some steroid nose spray or something. We'll see how that goes. For the purpose of this blog I'm going to refrain from mentioning anyone's names. I think that would be best as some people would probably prefer not being talked about. Tonight I heard something I needed to hear and that was good. Someone else told me tonight "I wish I could spend a day in your head. Just to see how smart you are." I thought that was nice, but I told them they would be disappointed b/c I'm not all that smart. Also, I have a feeling thats not the reason they wanted to anyway. Tonight I told myself "you just gotta let it go" several times when I realized that I tell myself that often. Then I wondered if thats normal. Then I thought maybe thats why other people get mad about stuff and get bitter or w/e. Then thought maybe I shouldn't even have to tell myself to let it go. I think thats where I want to be where nothing can bother me. But ... I think that as long as I care about things I'm going to have a hard time getting there. I have to be at work to open up at 6.00am tomorrow. I hope I make it.

SUPERmatt dc
Tuesday, December 28, 2004

Hey, if anyone out there works for AOL or knows someone who does, maybe you could help me out. Last semester while in school I was logged into AIM (SUPERmatt dc) and kept receiving strange messages that said that someone had just signed on at another location. Fearing someone had gained access to another computer that had my stored password, I changed the password there at school, but by the time I had made it home had seemed to forget it. This really stunk. I've gone through AOL's provided password retrieval service, but they email your password to the email account you used to register your screen name. Seeing as how that was about 10 years ago, I have no idea what email address I was using then. In the meantime I've created SUPERmatt pb, but I'd really like my old screen name back. So, if you got the hookups help a brother out.

Ok ok

So there isn't anything really here right now. I'm going to try and update this w/ stuff at least once a week, even thought no one will ever ever read it.

What video game character are you?

Image of a Light Cycle.I am a Light Cycle. I drive fast, I turn fast, I do everything fast. I even breakfast. I tend to confuse people with my sudden changes of heart. Sometimes I even confuse myself, which tends to cause problems. What Video Game Character Are You? Take the quiz and post a comment letting me know ... do it.
