I am going to look for a new car today. This is the first time I wasn't forced to get a new car cuz my old one completely pooped out. It is also the first time I am looking at a dealer and not just getting one for like $500 from somoeone who can't drive anymore or gets a new car. It is very nerve racking. My parents are looking for a new car too so we are gonna look together (perhaps get a buy one, get one free, haha)! I don't know. LIke my car I have now is dying slowly and I dno't want to have to be forced to find one right away or put anymore money into it so I guess it is time> It leaks everything and keeps having little parts break.
I need something roomy for my big legs and I drive a lot of people around a lot so I need it to hold a lot of people. And I want it to have good mileage. And power windows. Those are really my only necessities, oh and prolly air conditioning. And blue. I think i want blue or red. Wish me luck...

I saw BobbyI saw Bobby today at the cheap show in Cheektowaga with (e:jill). It was really good and soo sad. I love sad movies. I really like when I cry at movies. I don't know why but I really like sad movies and this was one of them. Even though you kinda know where it is giong, it is still really sad and crymaking.

I Finally Did ItAfter some mishaps and misunderstanding I finally registered for Physics. I will be at UB North Campus (there are prlly few places i rather not be at) on MWF from 11-1150 and Thursday at 830. I meant to sign up for Tuesday but I messed up and now it is full. I have to go get my id, parking permit and my UB account on Friday. How am I supposed to find my way around. I gave myself an hour from when I leave work and have to get there on my first day is that enough time. My class is in Cooke121. Wish me luck...i am gonna feel really old and dumb. I haven't taken math/science class in like 5 years so Physics for Engineers should be real great!

mike this has nothing to do with anything you posted, but i keep forgetting to ask you if you have heard the musical Avenue Q. It won Best Musical in like 2005. I was listening to some of it and I think you would like it a lot. Just wanted to tell you that before I forget again. Smooch.

Hooray for you, Mike! This is a big step and I'm really proud of you. Don't worry to much about how hard the course is, you just may not be able to do your semester-long projects at 2am before they are due. Other than that, smartie, this will be a breeze. Congrats! (Remember me when you are supa dupa rich)

I know it's scary, confusing, intimidating... and so many more frightening things.
But the brave don't sit on the sidelines. The brave are scared and do it anyway.
Good Luck, Mike! I wish you all sorts of mathy brain activities!!

Rumor is that you are a smart fella, so don't worry so much - just apply yourself and you'll be fine!
I never commuted - but the times where I was too lazy or in a hurry I'd take my car to a class rather than the buses. Parking is atrocious at that campus.

Nothing Sadder.....than a young person's funeral. (e:amanda)'s brother's funeral was today. It was soooo sad. I have never been to a young person's funeral before. It is so differently sad. Though I never really knew him, it was still incredibly sad. Seeing amanda and her family was heartbreaking. Her grandparents seemed soo distraugh. Who ever imagines burying their grandkids? I don't know how you ever recoup after something like that.
metalpeter - 01/09/07 19:11
Funerals are sad enough as they are. Not sure if they or wakes are worse it all depepends on the way the funeral and wakes are. But when it is someone burring there kid or grandkid it is even worse. It just goes against nature really and most parents can't handle it cause (we assume) that are kids will watch us die and not the other way around. Ok I don't even know the person and I'm thinking about some I knew who this happend to and am getting down so time to stop writting.

yeah Mike ... young people's funerals and wakes are so awful. Lauren's wake was the most awful thing I've ever experienced in my whole life. In a way I think the wake is worse, because all people do is stand around crying and crying so much. A funeral can at least be comforting in some ways. But even so, it is so devastating when it is someone young. It's good that you were there for Amanda.

Condolences(e:amanda)'s brother andrew died today. He's only like 26. He has been sick for a while so it wasn't completely surprising but still utterly horrible. I can't even imagine what her and her family must be going through. He is her only sibling. I can't even imagine if (e:paul) died. It seriously leaves me speechless. I feel so bad for them. He has been sick for a while though so maybe it is better but still it is horrible. This doesn't really make sense but it just I don't know, I felt like writing about it but don't really know what to say.

Wow that is so sad. I have an idea. Let's just make a pact that we never die.

I would buy the gramps mobile if I were in the market. I love it! I want to see that baby on pimp my ride.
