I just got home and checked my e-mail and there was a question on my eBay item (my computer) so I was all “hmm…what could this be?” and it was the mean, snippy little message.
“You are asking way too much for this… Clean up your wire management… Numbnuts”
Every single item I’ve listed on eBay I’ve gotten a mean “question” on it. I swear, there must be people that go around criticizing other people’s items. “Yeah…that teapot…I wouldn’t even use it if my grandma used it…wiener face! Hahaha”
Get a fucking life, dipshit.
But anyway, I was a good boy and I called up the eye doctor and was going along with everything fine until they mentioned that they weren’t a participating provider for the insurance my dad is on, so it would cost upwards of $200. I didn’t ask whether that included the glasses. So we’re back to square one. I had an okay day at work, I worked really hard and I was on top of everything and my graphic is coming out tomorrow, so yay!
Oh, I don’t think I blogged about last night. After art me, Joe, Tawna, and Naiya hung out and listened to Nine Inch Nails (Joe likes NIN, which of course makes him übercool). We hung out at Pebble Beach for awhile, me and Joe were sliding down the handrails (it was SO fun, but I cut my hand on some rusted metal). After that we went to KidTown and hung out there for awhile, Joe and I were swinging on the swings talking about computers and Naiya and Tawna hung out kinda near the entrance. After a while, these losers from the high school showed up and we all huddled behind one of the towers and spied on them, it was funny. After that we dinner at Denny’s (I had French toast–yum!, and then we went and hung out at the pier. I raced Joe to the end and he totally beat me by a yard! So of course: rematch. I took off my boots and then we were so close it was a tie. We talked about a bunch of stuff: relationships, slow and fast-twitch muscles, autism, older people not “getting” computers, the pace of technology, etc. At the pier we really started to notice the fog: it was SO thick.
Tawna was tired, so we dropped her off (I saw Tawna’s mom and dad today when I was walking, but anyway) and then we were off to Endert’s Beach to see if we could get above the fog. It didn’t really work at all, but it was SO cool up there. You couldn’t see anything: not the city, visibility was like fifteen feet or so, if that. We walked down to the Endert’s Beach campground, but there was nobody there. It was really cool and creepy because of all the fog and such. After that, we came back up and drove to Naiya’s house to drop her off. We went towards the casino afterwards, but then we saw a sign for Stout Grove, so we were all “what the hell, let’s go.” We drove for about fifteen miles down this windy pothole-ridden road with the giant redwoods on all sides, it was so cool. After a while we started seeing houses and then we were in Gasquet. It was really strange. We took 199 back to town, it was such a strange experience with all the fog, the streetlights looked all futuristic, Joe was saying how it looked like Blade Runner. When we got to the college it looked extremely like that movie, all we could see were the lights. But anyway, but this time it was around 3 a.m. and we had to get up early so after a moderate amout of conversation we parted ways.
I bought a canister of hair dye after work, I noticed yesterday that my roots were hanging out. I wonder how much money I have. Hm. $41.17. and $300 in my savings. I like those numbers. I bought $20 worth of gas today, and I’m going to spend $13 on this extremely rare Gregg Araki movie that I found on eBay. But I get paid on Monday so I’m going to be fine. I’ve made up my mind to stash almost my entire paycheck this pay period on the bank in anticipation of buying my PowerBook. Yes, I put my computer on eBay for waaaay too much money, but in the back of my mind I didn’t want to sell it cuz it’s my baby *cuddle with my Navarre* Okay, I’m done. But yeah, the PowerBook I want is $1700, so if I sell my computer for even as low as $1000, I really only need to save up $700 And with my tax return, I only have to save up $550. Sweetness. I’m going to be living extremely frugally (except for the motherfreaking gas) which I am addicted to. So yay. Only a few more months. My mantra will be frugality. I’m going to work on downloading those songs for Josh which will net me $50 and I have no clue what Matt C. will pay me for the website. Even if it’s only like $25, that’s still a tank of gas (well…for the moment).
