Smirk
You’re the smirk,a frown-smile hybrid that’s a
little bit cocky and usually associated with
evil or arrogant,but attractive people.You
probably just don’t give a damn,but it’s
everyone else’s fault if you don’t because
you’re too awesome to have any real faults.

“It was the best of times, and it was the worst of times”

December 1, 2003

Thanks everyone who made an appearance at my party on Saturday. I hope that it lived up to your expectations. As always, it was so exciting to see everyone, and i was quite pleased that all the most gorgeous girls in tempe showed up.

Anyways, I spent much of the evening parading around in my bathrobe and guarding the door to the VIP bathroom in my bedroom. Considering how many people were there, it’s amazing that nothing of any significance was destroyed. Ironically, Collin and Tiki got into a huge fight and broke up after the party was over, and Collin kept smashing his head into his bedroom door until there was a hole in it and a hole in his head as well. I swear I’ll never understand the way people from Texas do things, nor do i want to. I’m so glad i grew up in a civilization. In any case, they got back together the next day, we all laughed about it, and now he has a broken door.

I woke up at 9am Sunday morning after the party completely wired and I danced on my bed in my underwear to the song “Rebel Rebel” blaring for about 3 hours. Anyways yeah, I work hard. I like to have a little fun.

Sunday night Carrah came over, and we went to the bar and then came back to my house and watched “The Stepford Wives”. Carrah is one of my favorite people to hang out with. We always get along perfectly, and we can talk about anything. She makes the sunday nights fun where they were once miserable.

I have off of work this thurday and friday so i will find my way to where the action is. I would definitely like to bro out on these days so everyone should get in contact with me as soon as possible. I might call an attractive girl whose number i got at the party, but i haven’t decided yet.

I’m not looking for anything serious, just a little romance on the weekends and some late night phone conversations. I suppose whether or not that’s too much to ask depends on who you’re asking.

On the lighter side of things, I’m buying a little red Yamaha “keytar” off ebay that i’m going to play on my album. I bet none of you knew this, but i can play “Dancin’ in the Dark” flawlessly on keytar. Remind me to play it for you next time you’re in my room.
