Damn, remember when I actually used to write in my journal?

Mmm... Yuck.

2004-12-14T21:04:01Z

I saw this advertisement on MySpace and thought that it was the most disgusting ad that I've ever seen. Has anyone else seen any that are worse?

One hit wonder

2004-11-22T11:31:01Z

I'm a liar.
I said that I would post a short story as my next entry, but I never finished it. I should post more, but I don't. I changed the layout and design of my livejournal; I like it, but I still have some more to do to it- much like my own website.

I know that a lot has been happening with me, but I can't remember most of it. I bought some samurai swords, so if anyone wants to fight me then step up. I bought new shirts too! Shirts + swords = bad combo.

I need to sleep because I have to get up early to go to the D.M.V. to take care of a pre-license suspension.

Flip-flop.

I apologize for my lack of posts and non-existence online, but I haven't had the internet available to me lately. We're getting high-speed put in at my dad's house so I'll hopefully be back up to speed shortly. I'm going to write a short story and post it on here for my next post since I can only seem to log on every two weeks. Happy Halloween.

Wah!

2004-10-15T09:33:33Z

Two weeks since my last post; I'm on fire! I don't doubt the fact that no one reads this pile of filth known as Mike's Live Journal. What interesting and super cool shit do I have to say? (LONG PAUSE) You're right- NOTHING! Here's a brief recap of what's been happening in my life:

I started work at my dad's company.
I'm 3,000 miles over due for an oil change.
I'm currently in the works of getting my own place.
My dad is building a restaurant in Triangle Square (where the 55 ends).
Every night I've been wishing that random women will ask me to make out with them.

I guess that's about it. Nothing too exciting has been going on lately. My comrade Mark has been gracious enough to allow me to use his computer these past few nights. I'm sure that he'll be asking for compensation, such as a blow job.

My dad is very ambitious.

I'll kick you in your cheez-it box

2004-10-01T08:01:41Z

I have this three pound box of Cheez-Its sitting in my pantry right now. The box is literally the size of my torso. I'm debating on whether or not I should take a bet to see if I can finish the whole box in an hour- the bet was made by myself. I think that Becky put it best when we were talking about if someone were to eat the entire thing: "I would have orange throw up."

Me: "Hey, you got email." Brandon: "Heeyyy, I got email! I got email, guys!"

2004-09-29T17:53:49Z

I emailed Dane Cook yesterday to see if he could get me into his show at the Ontario Mills Improv on October 14th, and later I received a response from his personal assistant saying that there is nothing that he can do. You would think that there would be something that the guy could do. I mean, IT'S HIS SHOW. That kind of made me angry, but not much. There's a whole story behind it and everything, so don't think that I was just trying to get in for free. If you want to read my email then click here.

Hey Dane,
I noticed that you're going to be playing at the Ontario Mills Improv next month- this equals bodacious. Well, just recently my sister died in a boating accident on the Colorado river [link] and as we were packing up her apartment we stumbled across a couple VIP Passes for the Improv, but the only problem is that you can't use them on sold out or headliner shows. So what I'm hoping that you can do is tell them to let me use them for your October 14th performance. If there's nothing that you can do it's totally understandable, but you seem like an extremely down to earth guy and might see where I'm coming from: how I don't want these to go to waste and what better event to use them at than my sister's favorite comic. Hopefully you can get back to me.
Thanks for all the laughs!

For those of you that don't know about Firefox, I recommend using it as your default web browser; it's very powerful, safe, and customizable. Firefox is much like Internet Explorer, but so much better. I at least encourage people to try it out and if they don't like it they don't have to use it. If anything, just check out the site.

I've noticed that most people just use their journals to either complain or write stuff that no one else would know what the fuck they're talking about. Sometimes you'll get the occasional "good post" in every once in a while, but I think that everyone nowadays are just lazy.

I went to my sister's funeral on Monday and it was amazingly beautiful. So many people showed up, it made me happy. The minister did a phenomenal job speaking. We let 200 doves go after the burial- they're very tame animals. The reception afterward was pretty cool; I wish that more people would have came and got drunk. My good friends Brandon and James came to both the funeral and reception which meant a lot to me. I wish that a couple of other people could have made it, but scheduling conflicts arose. Let me just say two words- Hotel Room.

After the reception Brandon, James and I went back to my hotel room and completely destroyed the place. We tore apart the beds and put them on opposite ends of the room to jump from one to the other. You take for granted the little things that bring you pleasure. James and I had the brilliant idea to throw huge "spit wads" out the window onto the floor below; I tried to peg some mexican guy passed out on a lawn chair. Anything that could have possibly been done in that room, we did.

It makes me so happy that I cry when my friends show me how much they care.

P.S. Thanks Annette for the early morning "I love you" message. The feeling is mutual.

Becky asked me to draw her a picture; so I did. We have this inside joke about how the o+period+o+semi-colon looks like a person wearing a monocle, so we say quotes that the man/woman would possibly say. An example would be the subject of this. One time my quote was, "I trample my ex-employees with elephants" o.o;, so I drew it.

2004-09-12T12:19:46Z

OH MY GOD!!! I just found this old short story that I wrote. It cracked me up when I read it just now. I hope that you at least semi-enjoy it.

While gathering sticks and branches to start the fire that would ultimately destroy Gary the Singing Salmon, I noticed that the branch labeled, ")-(?" was starting to morph into some sort of canned food. I had to drop everything I was doing and focus entirely on this 8th Wonder of the World. To my surprise, it not only transformed itself into a can of excellent tasting New England clam chowder, but it transformed the grass on the Southside of Whvelib Hill into a garden of angered wasp's nests. This was not a good thing for the Gtkeugla Tribe that inhabited that area. But as for the New England clam chowder; I constructed a boat for it so that it may live in it... On the shore... Next to Steve...

So I gathered up the sticks and branches from earlier so that I could follow through with the original plan. You remember; the one where I would burn Gary alive in that stupid salmon costume that washed ashore 2 days earlier. But I was gathering these sticks and branches when the one labeled, "Quaadif/4 toop" gave me a peculiar look and stuck me with its pointy/sharp end, resulting not only in its own suicide, but in the suicide of all of its fellow sticks and branches. This didn't just leave me with an armful of dead, lifeless corpses, but with also the nasty prick at the base of my palm.

My injuries healed. But I can't speak for everyone else. The wasps migrated to the far end of the island wiping out everything in their path; not to mention the entire Gtkeugla Tribe. They will be missed, but Gary will not. I will find a way to end his reign of torment on us. Perhaps tomorrow I will find a way...

Lookin' for a little afternoon delight.

So I went to Romano's Macaroni Grill with my good friends Mark and Danielle on Friday night. The picture above is what I drew on the table; Danielle now owns it. Kind of ironic that I drew that and then this shit with my sister happens.

Has anyone else noticed that the word "this" is almost spelled like "shit" backwards?

The whole enchilada

2004-09-07T04:04:59Z

Wow, the craziest of all days. First off, my sister died this morning. I'll give you a link to one of the news stories so that I don't have to write it out. And FYI, the 3 missing people are dead. It's pretty tough to deal with something of this magnitude. It just comes up and bites you on the ass when you least expect it. Losing someone so close and immediate to you is definitely hard to comprehend.

In other news, during this entire weekend there was not a single day that I was sober.
I'm a little bitch.

Well, I don't really want to type anymore. Onward and upward.

Shampoo, rinse, repeat.

2004-09-02T09:06:20Z

So I'm reading last month's Maxim the other day (#80-August 2004: Anna Kournikova) and I came across an article on The Hives (Pg.76: The Swedish Thing). I'll admit, the article wasn't the greatest, but when I looked at the picture of the band, I fell in love with Howlin' Pelle Almqvist's hair. I don't know if I'm just retarded, but I think that the hair style is extremely cool. So now I've been seriously thinking about changing my hair to be like his. Input kindly appreciated.

What time are we on?

2004-08-30T08:06:51Z

So today I spent way too much money. I bought a DVD, CD, and three books. I think that the damage was like $80 or so. Oh well, I'm happy about the books at least.

If any of you want to waste some time, check out Habbo Hotel. My friend Mark and I went on it today and had this memorable conversation:
Guy: "you kids"
Me: "lol, kids?"
Mark: "what do you mean by kids?"
Guy: "you guys are stupid 9 year olds"
Mark: "well how old are you?"
Guy: "...37"
Mark: "and you're sitting at your computer?"
Me: "yeah, shouldn't you be at work? or having sex with your wife?"
Guy: ":/"

I thought that it was a little funny.

This is a little late, but on Sunday I saw Incubus and it was thoroughly amazing. Seeing a band play live (if they're good) gives you a newfound respect for them. I didn’t take a camera or anything because I’m slightly retarded and have mild A.D.D.

I found out my actual I.Q. and it’s better than I thought it would be. After taking these shitingly simple online I.Q. tests I buckled down and took a written I.Q. test that they administer through school districts. It was really long and I regret taking it just because of how boring it was, but I’m semi-glad that I took it.

I plan on buying a ferret.

View Poll: Paris

So I might be given the chance to live and work in Paris, France. I'm just wondering if anyone else would or would not and why.

It's so much better

2004-08-11T09:30:14Z

So Sunday I'll be seeing Incubus at COX Arena in San Diego. Pretty excited about that. I've had the tickets for like five months now and haven't had anyone to go with until just a couple of days ago. I've had people say that they would go, then cancel, then say that they could again, then cancel. So I decided to finally ask someone who wouldn't flake on me- Mr. Mark Barrios.

Everyone thinks that they're so right about everything, but no one is. I'm sick of people in general; I'm going on a hiatus.

I hate writing subject titles; they're useless to me.

As of late I have been a compulsive klepto. Today alone I found myself with two new pairs of shoes and just a couple nights ago a bottle of Belvedere and Jägermeister dropped into my possession. It's getting pretty bad, but oh well, you only live once.

I'll be moving into a new house located in Irvine in a month or so. You can check out the floor-plan and stuff here. Right now it will be me and two other guys living there. The master bedroom will be my room.

I like random phone calls.

"Bort? Who names their kid Bort?"

2004-07-09T08:28:28Z

So I FINALLY got to go to Knott's with Annette. The line-up was myself, Annette, Randy, and Lindsay- and it was assloads of fun. Hopefully we can all have another shindig sometime soon. I don't know what to write in these anymore; I'm so retarded.

Other patents pending

2004-06-25T08:46:09Z

I haven't posted a new entry in quite some time. Actually, I haven't even been on LiveJournal for almost a month. Sorry if anyone enjoyed reading anything that I've had to say.

Wednesday is the only day that I'll actually be looking forward to; I haven't looked forward to doing something in a long time. Wednesday I will be going to Knott's mother fucking Berry Farm with Annette mother fucking Chavez! I'm not 100% sure who all is going, but I'm fairly certain that Ronald (Randy) Howard and Beckster Spirnaski will be going for sure. Oh joy!

Yellow makes me...

2004-06-03T10:40:28Z

I finally got my "LiveStrong" bracelets from the Lance Armstrong Foundation if anyone wants to wear one to show their support for cancer. Doubtful that any of you will inquire about them, but it makes me feel accomplished having put the word out that I'll gladly give you one. It would mean a lot to me if any of you would wear one, but it's not being forced upon you.

I think that I'm going to get like three hours of sleep tonight.

Recycle me

2004-05-26T07:25:01Z

I've been buying too many things. This week alone I've bought two new shirts, a lock box, some foam, shit to fix my xbox, and food/gas. Not to mention that I'm sporting a Rolex.

Mark Barrios is the man. He said that I could stay at his flat while his mom and sis are away in Greece for five weeks. Thanks Mark!

Dan Cheung is going to have a house built in Irvine and he needs people to move in. I'm thinking about it because, well, it's a fucking house and Dan's fucking chill. The only things that might hold me back are his roommates (me not knowing them) and the money factor (me not having it).

I wish more people would comment on my posts.

Hooray!

All-in-all the party was really fun, it was just a major sausage fest. It's come to my attention that Brandon doesn't feel the need to associate himself with too many women now that he has his girlfriend Jackie. But you would think that he would invite them anyway so that the rest of us could enjoy ourselves.

My friend James and I stole one shirt each from ROSS.

My weekend was fun.
