4:45 pm	Soul Coughing This post has nothing to do with the band Soul Coughing... I'm sitting online and have been for the past fifteen minutes or so - I have nothing to do online, except for the radio of course. I just plain feel dejected - I've written two good poems in the last two days, though. I also found a cool hat in my house last night. Maybe I feel worthless, maybe I feel smarter than everyone: CNN proclaimed yesterday that these three things are the most important issues in the election: 1. Terrorism 2. Iraq 3. The Economy W hasnt done any of them correctly, there was a terrorist attack during his term and he didnt catch Osama Bin Laden, oh yeah and the terrorist networks have more of a reason to hate america and more ways to convince youngens to join. There wouldnt be an Iraq war without W. Simple enough, ahhhh! The economy is shitty and even if it if the time he took over that is the problem he didnt fix the economy, so maybe that is neither a or blemish nor credit to his record. Use your head, not your heart. Look at the facts: I voted for W because I am christian and he is, not that that is a narrow minded view. I think gays will make my marriage mean less, not to mention interracial marriages. Whatever, time for anger to slip into good old depression. I really like the way this country is going - I'd prefer not to have a voice. Current Mood: Life sucks Current Music: I dreamt my record collection was in my classroom (Comment on this)

12:27 am	Doesnt it seem like all the good times have passed us by. I was looking through my buddy list on aim and I have like 100 people on there, which I guess is actually pretty small compared to most people but I was thinking - what happened to all of these people? I mean, at one point I spoke to all of them about something or other for quite sometime - I guess a few of these names were laura or mikie or zach screen names, but outside of that most are people from around the country who got the newsletter and who I talked to. I wonder where they are now? I met this one girl somehow who wanted to move to florida - I wonder where she is - and that Sarah girl who I think is a senior in high school now - I know she likes crappy music. I guess it also leads me to think about the people around here who I dont see, like Jennifer and other people - I actually couldnt think of anyone to say there, but I could call her - I think this is the mark of growing up, when you lose basically all of your friends from before now - gone. Brittney, Zach, Jessica, and a few others. I asked Hien for Ann's phone number and she wouldnt give it to me, peculiar life. I'm undecided about whether I think it is good or bad that no one reads this. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

10:09 pm	I'm watching the television in kind mind, playing pac - man like any normal teenager would do when what do I find on television but an ad against I - 892 the initiative to get slot machines off the streets and back into the supermarkets and street corners where they belong. I just said they would take them off the street and put them on the streets - I'm dumb - anyway - I'm not using periods - just these dashes - like this! - anyway - this fucking ad goes on for a long period of time about how these slot machines would make our children gambling addicts who only thing about getting a trifecta in the third and no longer thinking about those white collar jobs we want to have, working at offices and eventually having children and becoming conservative - well fuck those women who are against the fucking slot machines being about - how in the hell does it hurt them? Keep thinking mother fuckers - there is no way. In fact - I shouldnt say "women" because I know lots of men are against these love machines being on the corners and I include them in the women thing - but I know lots of women would love slot machines being aboot - like my mom for example - so I will make a new word for people I think are fucking idiots and dont support slot machines and also write sports columns about the seahawks - what will that word be? Give me one minute - this will not be a combination of words - or any root shit - it will be an all new word with its meaning being dumb ass bitches that I hate or write about sports - ok - hold on. (Time Lapse - four minutes) Stroucs - that's the word - it's a combination of two words Al gave me - I fucking hate stroucs - fucking idiots - not to mention ghosts in the fucking pac man game - I fucking hate those ghosts - they are now stroucs. Fuck stroucs. Al told me of this theory he has - well I believe it is proven so it is no longer a theory - well Al informs me it is still called a theory even if it is proven - anyway - this theory says that women who have had small children are the most annoying women in the world because they can only think of their small childs needs and cant imagine anything beside that small childs needs and I think it is a good one. Fucking stroucs. I dont know why this post came out anti - women - I am not anti - women - I think it is because the group against the slots had women in the add going on about the slots raping our children and making them pro - choice. Slot machines also are against prohibition - can you fucking believe it? I was dancing and al turns to me and goes "what the hell is wrong with you?" It's fucking war of 1912 2 on the streets!

6:46 pm	I must be bored to write in this thing I just remembered that it is my cats birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I typed as many exclamation points as years she has. In cat years. I'm so bored. I should take a nap. I'm too good looking to be this bored. God, I hope I'm joking. I did see Prince twice, from the last entry, if memory serves correctly. I was going to quote Al, but zach has already heard that quote and I dont think anyone else is reading. Hi, zach. Zach and I were having this pleasent conversation today in class and the professor started bitching at us because we interrupted her. Can you believe that, we're just trying to engage in some thought - I think I was talking about the Jewish holiday of passover and she has the nerve to say something. Like she is supposed to be lecturing. That is all. "Who're you voting for you dumb bastards?!" - Ian Mculloch of Echo and the Bunnymen. What the hell is this new options thing, that makes me angry because I am an angry conservative frightened of change?

1:26 pm	Anyone else really looking forward to the Olympics? Here is one for ya - I woke up at five in the morning to watch the vice president naming show (that's sad)... but yes - hours later I woke up again and heard about the republican national commitee releasing a 27 page letter (fucking book!) about John Edwards and how he burned caterpillars as a child. I'm sure it also mentioned that he got a "c" one time in elementary school - it PE no less! Anyway, the thing that I found interesting or rather insane was the statement that all of the news channels were showing the one that said John Edwards is a "disingenuous, unaccomplished liberal," I wont adress the disingenuous or unaccomplished parts, although you know John Edwards father not being a millionaire should not be treated as a downfall. The thing that I think is funny is that they used "liberal" as an insult. What the fuck? I understand that if I were to call anyone I know who is extremely conservative (I know one) a liberal they would be insulted, but when you call someone liberal a liberal you're just adressing what they are. It's like calling me annoying. I'm not offended because I am annoying, get it. Here's another example - It's like telling Billy Joel that he cant drive - clearly Billy Joel cant drive so it's no insult to him if you tell him that he cant. So in conclusion George Bush is a liberal. Ouch! Do you need some water for that wicked burn? One more dumb political thing - I was reading the back of this autobiography by a fellow named Michael Savage and he stated very clearly on the back cover that Al - Qaeda is not the number one problem in America but the number one problem in America is Liberals! You know we cant even jail them any more for having long hair? What the devil has this country come to? His logic for this - Liberals refuse to shut off the borders so the al - qaeda members can waltz into the country without being spit in their faces like they should thus obviously making liberals a bigger problem than al - qaeda - that's just simple southern math. Them liberals want to let all sorts of spics, n' chinks, n' niggers into this fine country that white men built. Now for something interesting, something old, something new, something bought and something borrowed. I think I caught a blind in the midst of a lie as in the show Arrested Development. A couple of weeks ago I helped this blind guy at the library and I gave him two books on tape. Well the next week I'm walking up to the library and he sees me like twenty five feet away and offers me a cigarette - so he obviously recognized me by my looks because he said hello like he knew who I am. I dont want to accuse a blind man of faking it, but that was pretty odd - I'm just throwing the thought out there, thats all. I proclaimed earlier that Uncle Tupelo should have written every single song and played it and I stand by that. I swear I have listened to Anodyne like 25 times since last Friday and that is a whole lot for me. I can believe how good they are. I dont even have time to listen to the song Second Hand News by Fleetwood Mac and that is the single greatest pop song ever written. I dont even listen to Gram Parsons and they have all but taken Pavement out of rotation. Fucking amazing. Three more Tupelo albums to get then Trace by Son Volt and the first four Wilco albums, although I like Jay Farrar more. I actually got some air while wakeboaring! I also nailed my face and I had a hard time thinking clearly for like a minute. I got Mariokart for Super Nintendo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

9:48 am	Pathetic things anyone? We went to see Dodge Ball yesterday, note - Hank Azaria, Chuck Norris, and David Hasselhoff are the funniest people ever. Right when the movie ended the very first thing we did was go to the wal - mart (classy) and get balls to play dodge ball. Impressionable young kids with their smoking the wacky tabbacy, its reefer madness I tells ya! (say that in a 1930's voice. NOW!... no one reads this anyway. I could say my true feelings in here and no one would know. Let's try. Honestly I just cant tell the difference between white people. THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME! You know sometimes I find myself more attracted to men than woman, I dont really worry about this much but sometimes the men get bothered when they get poked.(think about it) Yes! Two more items: First- Last night WWIII began here, well, what a cliche Operation Iraqi Freedom II began here last night. Well, if you think about it, what do you call the gulf war and all of those others times America attacked Saddam? Ok, I got it. Last night conflict over the Falkland Islands II broke out here last night. Michael (my little cousin. He's 13 and already chews tobacco at a college level!) didnt want to go water plants at a house he is house sitting so his mom and everyone else started bitching at him and he went insane. He ran downstairs, and Katie and I heard random fighting sounds from the basement and a whole lot of Michael calling everyone assholes and telling them he is going to fucking kill them, and he uttered the most important words I have ever heard "I'm going to kill all of you. Fuck off katie, you started this, Fuck you Chris, and mom. The only one who hasnt said anything right now is Tristan, amazingly!" I also am amazed I went a few moments without opening my mouth. Then everyone watched matchstick men. The second thing: Katie and Chris and I wanted to play pictionary at 2 AM, but Al and Michael were sleeping like pussy botches (a new word I have invented, I'd make up a definition, but who has the time?) So we wake Al up and his panties get in a twist so he is mad and he starts bitching about pictionary and how dumb we are, Alan Thicke was on the tv show, thats why I love pictionary. So we wake up Michael and get him to play, Katie is talking and she says were doing something really exciting and michael is still asleep so he has no idea what he is doing and he looks insane, then he comes over and play a round! Then he runs to his room and Katie follows after him and a moment later we here crying from his room and Michael is never to be seen ever again. I just asked Michael if he remembers this, he said "I played pictionary?" It will be awesome. Yeah. (1 Comment |Comment on this)
8:02 am	The Pelton Family Vacation with 2/3 of the Peltons, as told by Kyle. It's 7:30 AM, I'm laying down on a futon in my cousins upstairs, Al sleeps in front of me, and Kyle runs about downstairs. Kyle, who would dream of me walking downstairs and saying in a gravelly voice "hey, where's the food?" because Kyle, as we say in the business is bored as shit. He runs about the house and looks in every nook and cranny for some sort of escape. The life of a seven year old can be quite complicated. I look up from the computer and glance around the upstairs, the pull out bed supporting Al reminds me of my thoughts upon first waking, I thought to myself; I should walk up to his bed and ask him something interesting like, "did whats her name done get at you?" when he woke up from my question, I would then yell, "DEEEEEEZ NUTS!" into his face. But now thoughts like that seem silly, I am most certainly not willing it walk that four feet. Kyle, perhaps bored with the food he spent a moment consuming sits and looks off into space, he knows that last night something happened, an exciting life changing event for the young gosling. He doesnt know that an old person came and told us to be quieter in the pool and he also doesnt know that Katie yelled "WE BETTER BE QUEIT, THERE ARE SOME ANAL PEOPLE OUT HERE," Kyle who found his rest inside the house just ten steps away could not here us out at the pool, while the complaining man bitched about hearing us two blocks away. "Hogwash," I thought, upon hearing the man's comlplaint. "What I am really mad about is that he doesnt know how far a block is," Al says, saying what we all thought. I then ponder for a moment, what do I say all the time? Yes. "You know what I say all the time? You live in a city of old people, those old people will complain about bullshit things," I say to a great response of cheers. The crowd of my cousins Katie, Chris, and Michael think my comment must be one of the five or six greatest things they have ever heard(Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha - no one gets why that is funny). What to say, I think, to keep the crowd behind me and win their hearts in a way Mel Gibson just couldnt do by showing graphic images of Jesus' death. Yes, I have it now. "Mario Party? Anyone?" Cheers, streamers, a plane flying over that says "Tristan has the greatest ideas ever!" Now Kyle finds an escape from the world of boredom and pain. The car show, but first he thinks of a memory that he wishes he had. He looks back to a drive to Richland, Washington from Seattle and then sees a race most of the way there between Janice Pelton, the groups crazy driver and another she deems "The diaper mobile" because a package of toilet paper sits in that particular cars window, I dont get it either. The diaper mobile would gain headway, then Janice would hit the gas, it went back and forth like this for 159 miles with the diaper mobile not knowing it raced a middle woman and two excitable boys with lemon drops dreams and wild sex having realities(ah hem?(like a cough)). But the thoughts are innterupted in one fell swoop Kyle runs out the door to leave to a car fest and Al sits up. (Comment on this)

1:57 pm	Barbecues, ool parties, because there aint no p in the pool, and maybe the movie dodge ball. I havent updated in a while, I'm done with school... I havent worked on my book for a long time now, it's because I am as lazy as a greek donkey at a jewish wake, and you know how lazy they are. Very. I just read Al that last sentence and he said "Is that racist?" and I responded "No." Fucking white people. Racist bastards. I go to work nine hours a week, I heard a song that said "If you didnt live in America, you'd probably live somewhere else" never has a truer word been said. I gotta go to eastern washington. I gotta get drunk before the day begins, before my momma starts bitching about my friends. None of you white people get that, because you're white. She's white! She is so white, she's white like the light, never like the night. Dont quote me boy, I aint said shit. (Comment on this)

1:58 am	holy shit son! This is a link to the pictures of the cleaning of my basement. I suggest you go, because it is pretty miraculous. I couldnt remember how to say dimention, spell, man. I lost it. The girl in the pictures is my cousin katie. I'm the one with the long hair looking off to the side in the last picture. Al is the goofy looking cat in the middle. Go see, you will be shocked. http://www.geocities.com/numbar2/room.html This was all done today. (5 Comments |Comment on this)

6:40 pm	C'mon C'mon god damn!!! I had this long ass thing written. Fuck fuck. Well, lets summarize. Fucking religious people who gay marriage should be outlawed because of their bullshit religious ideals. Zach and I composed some drawrings during class they were: Two gay men smiling and getting married and gwb standing behind them with guns at each of their heads. Jesus with a caption that says "love all my children. But hate fags." The third was a boy scout with a gun to the heads of the marrying gay men. Then there is an equation at the bottom that looks like this: God = dumb. I added "people and T.J" to the list on the god side and "hypocrites under dumb, so it looked like this: God, T.J., people: dumb, hypocrites. This kid tried to make this point: "the government cant do something that would piss off a large portion of americans. (cough) Irag War. I think the government can and does do things that piss off large amounts of people, plus it does not say anywhere that christians cant be pissed off. Fucking moron. His persuasive speech is going to be about how people should not vote for john kerry. I should do my persuasive speech about how people attack Tim Lahaye/George Bush. (Wait for the cia agents to walk in my door) I'm lucky I didnt draw a picture of it, then my ass would have "run away" by now. I had this idea about two years ago for a memoir of this black nationalist who is watched by the government all the time and knows he is. This situation seems more and more likely every day. It was just an idea before, now it seems like tomorrow. I warned people about Osama Bin Laden. Now I'm warning people that Osama Bin Laden died many years ago. I dont read the Nation enough. Here's one for the kids: at the library they have roughly six different christian magazines, including one about christian music. How many magazines do you think they carry of any other religion. (cough) Do I need to answer this. I was thinking, maybe it is because they only make christian magazines, but that cant be true. I've never heard of any of the christian ones, so i'm sure there are jewish/muslim ones i've never heard of. At work I put up a whole bunch of pro gay books and a biography of Howard Dean. I like displaying them even though I know no one will bother to read them. There were all these kids laughing at this pro gay book, because it is a joke for them. I believe I already made the point about eminem being made the government. "Hate fags? The answer's yes" I have to go, so excited about lollapalooza and various concerts this summer.

10:37 pm	For the longest time Um, insurance companies - they sure are crooked and i hate them. Really, it should "cuz it's a 187 on an undercover insurance agent." Ice - T should have learned. Should have learned! Kitten now has a new name - Flava Flav. She now wears a clock around her neck. I'm considering joining judaism for the jokes. I looked at which words I use most in my live journal the word "I" won overwhelmingly. Then I called myself a megalomaniac. I want a job drawring the pictures of Paul Newman on the salad dressing. I ate the biggest omelet I have seen in my life. Then my cousin ate one that is bigger. Jessica's dad told me about a 12 egg omelot. Holy shit. In class we had to say what we want girls to do less of communication wise, I said "not to bitch." All the dudes agreed. Give Dr. Bold a call. Peace, bitches. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

8:56 am	The amount that I am going to rock is Zero. The fucking Electric Six show is 21+, I want to cry. I was hoping so much to rock and be amazed and have tears of joy come to eye, but now there will only be tears of pain. Dude! I should just go to a gay bar, I should just go to a gay bar, gay bar. What is the point of a 21+ show? They still serve alcohol! At the other shows is there fucking alcohol pouring out of the ceiling, it's fucking stupid! Does their music rock so much that people under 21 will spontaneously combust when rocking? Yes, but still! Now I will e - mail the Efucking6 every day until they are annoyed so they know how little I rock because of them, well nuemos actually. Fuck nuemos. I believe the Muse show is 21 also. Wide nose having mother fuckas. They should have never given them money! (6 Comments |Comment on this)

"We're supposed to get gas and food for six dollars." Luckily my mom keeps a secret stash of mcdonalds money for terrible situations like that one. The whole game I stared at this kid trying to decide whether it was a boy or a girl, I couldnt fucking tell. All I know is it was ugly. (1 Comment |Comment on this)

11:07 pm	I'm all strung out Too much coffee and tv. Not really, no tv. Too much coffee and thinking. I have this god damn cough. Sometimes i wonder if i am dying. Maybe. I just want to have a kid before i die, that is really all I want. Whatever. Muse. With their chaotic songs about the apocalypse, they're so prog. They're so english. I love the super furrey animals so much. I have these three other albums to listen to that are supposedly classics and i havent even listened to them because I cant get enough sfa. They're SOOO good, My god. My stomach hurts and my emotions are all crazy. Earlier today I was thinking to myself "I cant imagine ever being happy again" then I was happy and jolly four minutes later. Fucking coffee. I use three packets of sugar per cup, too. How dumb. My legs are shaking so fast. Muse is so good. I just typed "uncomfortabler?" I accidentally put the r, but it seems english. Like when robert plant says valhaller. I will never get to sleep tonight, ever. Oh well. I can read and listen to uk music. (Comment on this)
