The Burdens of Being Upright

whores dont get a second chance!

aspartame (an ingredient in diet coke) sounds like a bad name for a hardcore band.

i am so tired. and my face is so burnt. i got up around 5 this morning and went to a car show in pennsylvania with matt, his cousin, his dad, johnny, and johnny's dad. soooo many beautiful orgasmic cars. there were quite a few chevelles and camaros but i only saw 2 novas and they werent the years that i want. while we were walking around i ran into a trailor and hit my head. (just another reason why i suck at balance and avoiding running into things.) and later today i got hit in the head and the shin with a tennis ball because the ball had it in for me. oh yeah. i saw Identity on friday. it sucked balls. big ones. the ending was so weird and stupid and it still makes no sense. the last line in the movie was "whores dont get a second chance!" (hence the title) and. bah. i want my 9 dollars back.

i'm listening to tom waits. i need to go buy cds.

i almost forgot... on friday i was sitting in sixth period coloring. there's a few minutes left until school lets out. one of the administrators gets on the announcements and says "teachers, we are holding the bells until further notice. do not let any students out of the classrooms for any reason. all teachers with 6th pd planning please report to the main lobby." its then that i realize the sound of multiple helicopters coming from outside. so i'm a little uneasy, wondering what the hell is going on. a few minutes later the same adminiastrator gets on the announcements again and says "teachers we are now exercising the 'shelter in place' procedures. all teachers in the temporaries and mods please escort your students to the gym immediately." (shelter in place is a drill they started this year where all the people in temporaries and mods go to the gym in case of biochemical warfare or snipers.) so now i'm a little freaked and i'm thinking maybe WW3 has started. then a few minutes later the administrator says "this is not a terror alert. there has been an incident in the community." so two guys had robbed a bank or a starbucks or something at freestate mall, which is right by bowie high. and they shot someone. and got away. so two armed men were loose around bowie high and cops were searching the woods and everything for them. they finally let us out of school. this is the second time this year that i've walked out of school to find helicopters circling above and cops every few feet. so i was half an hour late to work and i wonder if they're going to take it out of my pay.
