Ahhh, a new month, a new god vs. joe story. Car's dead. well not quite dead, but it's on it's last leg, and it probably just twisted it's ankle yesterday. Me and chuck went to bogey's to swing the good swing, but the 80mph cage was broke, so that probably should've been a sign. While we're just sitting there, admiring a presbetarian, you know, the chicks who wear long denim skirts, except she was actually hot. Then all of a sudden, the lights go out and we see the large flash with like a clicking sound by the drag races at the fairgrounds, guess a transformer blew up or something. it was pretty nifty I think. Me and pooh-man-chu decided to go back to my house, so we get in our vehicles and chuck goes, then I start mine, put it in to gear *put put put* dies. Tried it again, keeps dying. Grrrrrrrr. I thought I was going to have to walk to garfield's and get a ride home with adar j. clown. I just sat there for like 15 minutes, tried to start it, and it sounded like it usually does. not great, but running. So I put her into gear and start going, a little after getting out of bogey's parking lot, I could feel it trying to die, then it did. Much sighing ensued. Started it, and made a mad dash for garfield's. Got it there, and just chilled in there until adam got a break or something.
Sarah was bumping around too. Then this guy drops a glass-o-beer and puts a wet floor sign, rather than mopping it up, so a few minutes later, people were bringing orders out and a server slipped and fell, dropping much food. I'll bet the kitchen was happy they had to make the order all over again. A few minutes later, the guy who dropped the glass slipped and fell on it too. heh. Consequences and repurcutions! I think that's how you spell repurcutions... who cares. Then adam comes out and is talking and stuff, I tell him how my car's gimped and then chuck comes in, at first seemingly agitated, until I told him about my car being lame. Then sarah discovers the helium tank and was a chipmunk for the rest of the night. later on her little weiner boyfriend comes in and they leave. I swear she seems to like guys that are as tall as she is (not tall) but anywhoo... Me and chuck decide to go back to my house, so I try the car, it won't start. I had to gut my car out and put everything into the back of chuck's truck and took it to my house. Took shower then we went to denny's, where recently the service sucked our butts, but that night was good. Katie and bryan came in like a half hour later and sat with us, sharing stories of hardee's goodness, that's where katie works. Katie was saying how adam's bitching about being home on a saturday night, despite he said he'd come to denny's after he got off work. Oh well. at about 1:30 me and chuck left to go try and get my car to the hardee's parking lot, because the mall people will have it towed if you try to leave it there overnight. Got there, it started up and was acting fine, so i decided to try and get it home. And I did. it didn't act up at all on the way home. pooh followed me so I'm like screw it, I just decided to get a new car. Well not new new, you know, used car that will be in much better condition than my current one. I'll probably either put about 1500 bones into one, or get a 10-15 thousand buck car with like, 200/month payments. Still, I'm done with the grand prix. it was nice knowing you, ghettocruiser part 2. The new ghettocruiser will be Ghettocruiser III :D anyway... uh... I guess I'm done. out

Hiya. Hmm what's happened... kind of bent the cards are on a 6 game losing streak. I didn't see what they did tonight yet. ah well. they'll come back. always do. as long as the cubs don't win, which of course, they've proven over the years to be good at that :D
Work at garfield's is going along as usual. I've been getting sent home early a lot though, which sucks. Necesito dinero para purchase un automobile. I can see my bro e-mailing me to tell me I screwed that up somehow. anyway. Me ma went and saw if columbia house's credit union would finance a car for me, and they said they could, but since I'm part time my parents would have to co-sign, which isn't a big problem. She said to get a good estimate of how much I could afford, that 3000 would mean paying about 145 a month for 24 months, and 5000 would mean paying 170 for 36 months. So... I figure about 7-8000 would mean around 200/mo for 36 months. plus the 2000 downpayment. Figuratively, I could afford about a 10,000 car. yee. that gives me some room to work with. anywhoo.
Tonight went to garfield's at like 8 because adam was working and sarah was too, but she didn't say anything or whatever. left soonafter. Oh yeah, last night the garfield's crew and I went to see Signs. it's a decent movie, almost scary even, unfortunately, there's so much hidden messages of faith and belief in god and stuff that it ruined the movie. They make you think the movie's about the aliens and sh*t, but really it's about testing your faith in god and turn people into bible thumpers. stupid movie.... anywhoo back to today. Then we went to bogey's and I sucked. I mean, I sucked HARD. Slamming everything off the ground or popping it up. stupid cages. I was enraged and smacked my bat on the ground and cracked it. oops. Doesn't matter anyway, there's a sign on the batting cage token machine that says no wood bats, so I can't use it anymore anyway. like anyone is good enough to break wooden bats besides me. right... uh. well. Oh yeah, we went to pizza inn and saw a young'n. She was filling out and application, but was in the back as if she had previously known lynn, turns out she's tim's daughter. The delivery driver. Wow, we never knew he had a daughter, much less a hot little young'n. She must be like 15 or 16 because she has to get a work permit before she can work there. She was talkative too. Apparently lynn's been hiring quite a few young'ns lately :D she always was the best shift leader. anywhoo. a little after, we left and went to putt putt because the tournament was just getting over. Talked to randy for a bit. Next week's the last tournament of the year, yo. eek. so me and adar are going to play in it next week. I dunno what's going on for a bit. I'll be looking at cars for the next few days, and when I find the one I want, I'll let you all see it. all 2 of you that read this.

I found the car. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww yeah. Well maybe. My dad still wants me to look at other cars, because this one would double my insurance rate :D but I could still afford it. a 93 mitsubishi 3000GT. sweeeeet. mawfuggin' 9 years old and it only has 75,000 miles. So far, that's the favorite, but I guess there's a slim chance I could find another car I like that would be better for me. But I doubt it.
Yesterday I got off work and went home, and later chuck came by and we just walked around the neighborhood and watched tv, then at 8 adam called, he got off work so we went and picked him up. He left his car at home. Then as soon as we get to adam's, we see bryan, katie and bryan's parents pulling in. Poop, got there just in time to help them move their stuff. Oh well I didn't really care. I need the exermacise anyway. they moved into a place on 10th street. Decent. I'd say about the same size total as the other place, but maybe it would seem smaller because the other one like, stretched out really far, and this one's more compact, but bigger stuff like kitchen and bedroom and stuff. Bryan's dad has the phattest I think russian accent. heh. After that, we had to move adam's stuff and take assclown here, because I'm watching him until he finds a place that allows pets. All in all, we moved bryan and katie's stuff and adam's stuff in like 4 1/2 hours. it was about 12:30 when I got home. he's staying at the pooh-man-chu's place right now with soccergirl :D
Today I got up expecting to be sore but I wasn't, hell I wasn't even tired, woke up all ready to go. So got ready for work and went and actually put in a full 6 hours, yee. I was busy from like 9 til 10:30, adam came in and we just chilled until he had to clock on, and from about 11:30 to 3, I had my ass handed to me. It wasn't hard and I kept up and all, but it was just continuous dish after dish after dish. whew. oh well, plenty of old'ns working. they look like young'ns, but by garfield's law, if they look 18, they're 26. got off and was just sitting out there not doing a whole lot. Finally came home because it appeared adam wasn't going to be getting off any time soon. ASsclown and pookie are not quite coexisting very graciously yet, but they will, or i'll put my foot in pookie's ass. Assclown's just trying to walk around and look at stuff, pookie's tailing him, growling and so on. So I just locked pookie in my room and let assclown bump around. Late.

Today was my only day off this week. and what did I do? let's see. i woke up.... it was storming outside... watched tv.... got on the online.... yeah that's about it. both associates of the iq club worked in the morning and should've gotten off around 2 or 3 or 4 but neither has come by or called or anything so that's cool. yep.... other than that, I saw goldmember last tuesday. best austin powers yet. anyway... I know it's been 8 days but nothing's been happening other than working and going to sleep early because getting up at 8am sucks and then there's those nights where adam and chuck just want to suck on charlie's dick all night, but we won't get into it... what a good day off, well worth the wait. yep. I hope my next day off next sunday is just as exciting and fulfilling.
08-21-02
Well monday f'en sucked. It was raining when I got up and I was railroaded and 10 minutes late to work, then when I went in, they were like "d00d, do you work every day?" almost! haha, i get the holy sabbath day off..... so anyway. At about 12:30, lisa says I can go home, but me being stupid says I'll do the rest of the dishes, then go. So wen I'm almost done, lisa's like hey we're going to need to keep you a little longer. fine by me. then around 2:30, manager guy mackey comes by and asks if I can work that night..... SIGH. it took me about a half hour to decide to suck and say yes. So I worked 9am to 10:30pm monday :D. Afterwards we went to imperial lanes and chilled while jeremy, christina and mick bowled. adar drank and I rested. chuck just talked about drugs. Me and poohmanchu left and went to denny's. Got adam's mail from bryan. that was that.
Tuesday adam was working so I figured the day wouldn't suck very bad, as long as they didn't want me to double again. They didn't. in fact they sent me home after about 2 and a half hours..... sigh. This is like the first job that I actually want to get hours, but because of my double, they don't want to risk me getting overtime, so yeah. much mexican and cracker references were made during that time. Oh yeah, my dad forgot to come home so I could take the wilson wagon to work, so i had to drive the ghetto cruiser and I was sad. it was all gutted out and stuff. it worked fine and got me there and home, but it won't do that too much more until I get it fixed. to repay for his negligence, he got me a car model, yee. I like to build car models, shut up. later on, adam called and wanted to meet at pizza inn, and I said uhhh can't drive, and that I'd give him 10 bones if he came and got me, despite the fact he already owes me $330 and I drove his ass around for 2 months when his car was dead, and not once did I ask or get money for it.... anyway. went to pizza inn, where we proceeded to drink the good beer. Later on chuck and chad barbour came in and we talked about random stupidity. after me and adar finished off our second pitcher, we went to garfield's. Sarah had already left :D good, she causes the brain pain. Soon after, we were at bryan and katie's so adam and chuck could get high again. god knows they NEVER do that enough. Then off to denny's. I was tired and still feeling my beer, so I was having a good time. not a whole lot happened there. I was tired. yeah
Today went to work and nothing happened. oh well. new chick working, yee.
