All good things must come to an end.  Or in this case, a very bad thing must come to an end.  I bought Xanga Premium today in order to archive all my old posts and download them.  After downloading, all old posts will be made public (With the exception of a few posts that pertain to my sex life and illegal acts). 
I am saying goodbye to Xanga and switching to a new blog service.  I hate all the ads that Xanga has, and quite frankly, its a piece of shit.  All my old posts will be moved to my new blog, once I create it that is.
I will likely be moving over to "live journal" or "wordpress".  The good thing about moving onto a new system is that I get to start over.  Xanga has served me well over the past few years, and part of me will miss it.
Last post.  EVAR!

It's my birthday!

Time to celebrate.

Last nite was most excellent.  Started out by hitting "Super Bad" at the theater.  After a small mishap while paying for my tickets, we got seated.  We had a nice group of people that went out too.  The movie was hilarious, one of the best comedy films I have ever seen.

After the movie I went to The Jury Room with Jon and Coleman.  We meet some other people there and had a few drinks.  Then we hit up the landing. Morgan Street was fun.  We were supposed to meet some girls there, but they ended up leaving about the same time we got there.  So we were solo, for a while.  We had a few drinks, talked to some ladies, did a little dancing, etc.  Didn't get any phone numbers or anything like that, but I still had a good time.  Then we all went home, crashed out.  Coleman stayed here. 

Today we all met up again and hit up Fast Eddies.  That was a good time too.  The guys wanted to play beer pong, but I wanted to chill.  I've had a busy weekend and I just want to take it easy for a few hours.  I do have work tomorrow and all. 

It's the dog days of summer.  The heat is intense and the chance of rain seems slim.  School is about to start up again.  It's a time of dread for many students.  After a summer of leisure, the all too familiar routine of classes will begin again.  For the college student, it's time to buy some new clothes, get a few supplies for classes, and pick up a new load of textbooks. 

But, for me... not this year.  For the first time in 17 years I will not be getting ready for school.  It is a really odd feeling to not be going back to classes.  Im very apathetic about all of this.  I know I should be feeling some sort of emotion, but im not. 

My 23rd birthday is coming up in a few days, which I am also very apathetic about.  It really has become just another day.  Wow, it's actually a week from Saturday.  Closer than I realized until I just checked the calendar.  Ever since I started working full time, I have hardly had time to take note of much else.

Work is something that I am most definitely not apathetic about.  Being able to work full time for a decent hourly wage is really exciting.  I'm working along side some really fun people and I feel like I am really helping to meet company goals.  It's such a strange departure from the person I used to be.  I used to be completely against corporate America.  Now it seems like it is the only way to exist.  I don't like to idea of being another cog-wheel in a system that consistently makes sure that the rich get richer and the poor get prison, but I don't feel I have much choice.  I am still very middle class, but I wonder how long that will last.  A few more years until I have reached upper-middle to upper class status based on salary?  Maybe... who knows.  I just hope I keep my values the same.

I didn't do hardly anything all weekend.  Im kinda okay with that.  Is that normal?  It's too damn hot to do anything enjoyable anyway. 

There really hasn't been much going on in my life lately that I think is worth posting a blog entry about.  I went home last weekend to see my family. Mom seems like she is getting a little bit better.  My brother recently found out that he has some problems of his own that the doctors are currently working on.  I wont mention what it is for privacy reasons.  Work is going really well and I love the pay checks I have been getting.  I moved the furniture in my room around and I like it a whole lot better than the way that it used to be.  It looks more like a bedroom now than an office (that's good). 

I haven't rented a decent movie from netflix in I don't even know how long.  I did see the Simpsons movie a few weeks back, and I saw the Transformers movie.  Both were really good. 

I'm still living the single life, but I barely have time to let it bother me.  Between work and a bit of fun on the weekends, I don't really have time to find a girl in my life.  I'm pretty content being alone anyway.  I can do what I want, when I want.   Best of all, I am not wasting time or money on someone who probably wouldn't be worth either.

I bought a new clock for the living room.

I had dinner with Hannah the other night at La Fonda.  Food was good as it always is.  We mostly chatted about Alex.  We both miss him. 

So for the first time in a while, things are going really well.  I am probably about to jinx everything by writing this, but oh well.  To be continued...
