On the Street Value of 7 Tons of Cocaine.

Oh yeah I meant to show you this.

According to Cha Cha: at a value of $700 dollars/ounce. That was about 168,800,000 dollars worth of Cocaine.

On Not Sleeping

So things have been going oddly decently. Odd in a way that they're good but at the same time not. School is really beginning to kick my ass and getting into work mode is harder than I thought it would be, I'm getting distracted a little too easily and I don't really like it. I feel like I have no time at all to take care of some things that need my attention outside of school, which I am also against. But all of that isn't so much the odd part.

Things between me an a specific person have reached an odd plateau, and while I feel in the long run the decisions we've made are for the better it is still weird. We talked the other day and while that put a fairly definitive cap on things it only seemed to make the problem worse. It's still manageable at this point but we haven't made it through a weekend, and I suppose that will be the real test of how this is going to work. I hate to say it but in a way I hope that said person will falter first, but I'm not sure what I would do if they do so. As much as I've hoped and wish for that day I still can't help but feel that it's all some kind of elaborate front.

I can be a pretty paranoid person, I'm not sure if I've talked about this here or not before but I sometimes wonder if I have some sort of mental handicap or there is another situation going on that dosen't allow me to realize I have a mental handicap. I see the world as I see it but really the only reason people pay any special attention to me, give me the breaks they do, or make friends with me it because they feel bad for me, there's some greater power that is setting all of this up for me. I almost feel like this is all a TV show about my life and this is all the major points of my life are pre-scripted. Didn't Jim Carey star in some kind of movie like that?

But I digress, School is kicking my ass, a certain person has to be written off, I need to find a new job, I need to take care of things, and summer is quickly approaching.

I'm leaving the home I've known and loved in August. I need to make ammends.

I used to have this dream/nightmare as a kid, it usually involved me crawling through a really really small space to get to this tree house type room. I never really understood it. About 6 months ago I had the same dream. Only this time after I got into the room, I found myself in a large grain field, a powerful figure appeared before me. I think he was wearing a robe, he may of had some kind of wings, either way he told me I had one year to atone for my sins. That was August 28th. I may be working myself up into a frenzy but that's going to be an extremely auspiscious day for me. I wish I could stop thinking about it so I don't set it up that something major happens that day. I want to forget about it and let things play out as they would, so that when it does happen I can know that I didn't force the invisable hand of fate.

There's so much on my mind right now I don't even know where to begin. I just need a day off to relax and sort myself. Maybe I can work that out sometime soon.

I may edit this in the morning.

On Procrastination

Where have I been the last few weeks?

School is finally gearing up and just as predicted my science heavy scheduel is beginning to drain my time and kick my ass. All this week I'll leave the house around 10-10:30 and not come home till 11 or later. Classes, studying, working in the library, etc. I'm not that worried though, while I am busy and not able to be at home and relax much I have breaks so that I can sit down for maybe a half hour or so and just dick around online or what have you. This also means that my classes are just starting to get interesting.

I need to start sleeping more or get a better handle on my ability to stay awake. I have 3 classes around the 4-6:40 slot this semester, and I seem to have a hard time staying awake. One Asain Medicines and Asain Relgions, I could care less about falling asleep in because I've heard all the religious parts of this course 4 times now, and most of the medical stuff comes from the books were supposed to be reading (side note get on the next book now so it dosen't sneak up on you). The other one is Drugs and Their Actions, which I've sent some non-class e-mails back and forth with the teacher and seen her at a talk or two, but it's still really embarassing that I've fallen asleep. My third 4-640 class is the biggie, Research Methods in Biopsych, my grad level class. We went downtown to listen to Division of Animal Research give us a talk about animal care. I knew I was falling asleep but I tried to let it not happen or not be obivous about it. Well when your at a conforance table with 6 people it's kind of hard to be inconspicious. Reguarldess when we stood up to go on a tour one of the grad students let me know that I was really obviously falling asleep and that she thinks the speaker noticed. That was horrible, I don't get embarrased easily, but that made me kick myself really hard. The tour ended up being kind of dull though, as most of what she showed us was like our vivarium at Monroe. The monkey lab tour is coming up though so I'm still really excited about that.

I saw the Tim and Eric Awesome Tour last night. I had only found out about it the day before and I'm really really glad that I went. DJ Douggpound was really tight. Highlight include: "Fuck that" "put that in your sound pussy" and the Dane Cook sound bites. Alot of the TEASGJ was there for the performance, and I can't put into words how awesome it was.

Great Job

Oh Campus Police

So I go to Virgina Commonwealth University, and it's the largest public university in Virginia. Our campus police are a little more than security guards in golf carts. We have a full police division with cruisers, bike cops, and possibly segway cops (not sure if that was Richmond or VCU). All of the VCU dorms has a full staff of 24hour security guards which are also a division of the VCUPD.

Either way I just found out this morning that the Police Chief for VCU, Chief Fuller, has been arrested for soliciting sex from a 14 year old girl over the internet.

I used to be a Dorm Security Guard and so I've actually meet Chief Fuller which makes this ever the sweeter.

I IMed one of my former Security buddies about this.
-Did you hear what happened to Chief Fuller
+Yeah (another guard) text me while I was in class, I almost peed my pants
- hahaha tight
+ Literally
(Laughing ad infinitum)

On Being a Lonley Vampire

So I think the rest of my weekends for this semester are going to consist of doubles Saturday and Sunday, as well as working a closing shift on Friday. Which means that my weekends will basically boil down to Work-Drink-Sleep repeat for three days. Not especially pumped. This was the second of such a weekend, mind-numbing and bleak.

Friday night though I got off of work and on my way home I was stopped by my friends outside of Rumors. One of my friends, had invited me to go see this Chapel Hill band play at Rumors but I was going to skip it. I then found out that said Chapel Hill band was The Never, and even though I was still in my work clothes and wanting to go home I stayed for the show. I'm really glad I did, phenomenal show at a small venue. Lots of band-crowd interaction, super tight.

Awesome show, really glad I stopped by. Video Link.

On Predictability

So Barack Obama is now officially the president of the US of A. Very Nice! Found this little gem, of course our first black president would have a Caddy Presidential Limo, it only seems fitting.
