Safe and Sound in Phone Lines

Yesterday I was mowing the grass, and while listening to my playlist on MacKenzie's iPod I came across a song I had added a while ago. It made me think about my philosophy towards life and the people around me.

"All things aside, I will be enough for you." - A Change of Pace

I try to live my life with this as my guideline. Everyone I meet, I try to be enough for what they need right then right there. Any one of my friends can attest to the fact that I'm always there to talk when they need me. So this is me reminding myself and everyone else that no matter what I or you may be going through, someone else probably has it worse and even if they dont it shouldnt factor into how you treat them. Love each other more than you love yourselves!

Today I remembered a funny joke

Well back in the good old days, (the good old days are defined as the period of time before John went away to the academy), There was this artist named Curtis, he used to always rap about how he had been shot nine times and still didnt die, and how all other rappers were fake as shit. Needless to say John and I could connect with him more than any other artist because John idolizes black people above all other races, and me well im just straight hood.

He was known by the name 50 Cent. I always wondered why he wasnt "50 cents". but nonetheless he was 50 Cent and he had this song called disco inferno. The hook went something like this: shake shake shashashake that ass girl. So being the goof balls we were we used to sing along with Mr. 50 Cent and change the lyrics to shake shake shashashake that FACE girl. It was a monumental change and it blew the minds of everyone around. I dont think 50 ever got wind of our lyrical rewrite but maybe someday I'll meet him and rap my version to him.

Today I started something new...

As the title already stated, today i started something new. Its got something to do with me and its got something to do with you. Everyday used to be the same old black and blue, I used to feel stuck in one place with super glue. Until today I didn't know all of what I knew. But thanks to you, now I feel like what I used to think I couldn't do, Is now possible to pull through.

I'm elated and don't know why. Today has just been awesome:)

A nerds life is a trivial one

I've been thinking a lot lately. Not about anything in particular. Just thinking longer and more in depth on any thought that crosses my mind. I dont know why I'm putting so much thought into every one of my ideas, but i feels great. Sadly since I'm putting so much thought into my new blog idea I hinted at in the last post, I have yet to post anything, I've got a lot written just not enough for all of my ideas to be put out there.

I'm looking for others to help me with my new blog. Like say I could write articles on a certain aspect of Magic and someone else could write articles about another aspect. It could be fun. I've already got the layout and everything set up, I just need some content. Its called Regenerate Target Monger, and can be found here!

Other than the mood update here are my weekend plans: FNM (Friday Night Magic), PTQ Austin, Lunch with my dad, MacKenzie's Birthday!

FNM (Friday Night Magic)

I have this addiction. I've brought up my plans to kick this addiction on this blog once before. I cant kick it. I enjoy playing Magic: The Gathering, way too much! That being said, it greatly upsets me that the closest friday night magic event is on the southside of Indianapolis. :(

We have a freaking card shop in our small city that has recently changed ownership and has expressed interest in running a FNM. However when I asked them how soon they would be starting this, they didnt really have a firm answer. They told me they have to inventory the entire stock of cards that they bought, from the previous owner. double sad face time :( :(

I'm thinking about offering my services to them just so we can get the FNM started. I'd totally help them do inventory for free if it meant FNM sooner.

PS: I'm going to start blogging about my deck ideas in the future, I'll probably start a different blog though. So when that happens I'll for sure link it up!

Adventures of a Filthy Dirty Pirate

Well you might or might not know this about me. I'm a geek. I made my own computer. Installed a hacked version of windows on it. Oops I mean I installed a freeware operating system that looks exactly like windows and does everything windows does, but for free! Any who, I'm good with computers and can usually fix stuff if its not a hardware issue, in wich case I can fix that too I just have to order the parts.

For my latest quest, I set out on the seas we all so lovingly call the web, to find a free copy of The Sims 3. Isohunt is a great place to find torrents of games and other things. It took me roughly 24 hrs to download, so yesterday when I got home from work it was ready. I made sure to scan every file included for viruses. Once I was sure the water was safe, I dove in. 6 hours later I had installed The Sims 3 on 2 computers, and started 2 families. I've noticed that the super fast speed setting doesnt really work. but what can i say other than hey its free!

So until further notice mine and MacKenzie's nights will be filled with Sims 3 action.

Fasting Facebook: Day ... oh who honsetly cares

So I'm officially over facebook addiction, I can now resume my life as normal just with more intense activities such as photo-jogging, photo-blogging, and anything else that has intense connotations and involves my new camera! I also have regressed from the digital age of pictures and am loving every minute of it. I'm taking snap shots with my enormous holga 135 everywhere. Well not technically everywhere, just places with enough natural light to warrant me snaping a shot.

So if somebody wants to get me a flash I may start taking pictures all the time!
