How To Walk Away
I love casinos as some of you know. Not in a bad way, like i don't lose a lot of money but I don't win a lot either. Like today I went and won 15 dollars on my first like penny spin and was winnign up a storm and got up to like 22 dollars (from an origianl 5 dollar bet) but of course I played it down to only coming home 3 dollars ahead. So like I still "won" but I oculd have went home with way more. I just can never walk away. And since I only really play penny machines I will never get higher than like 20 or 30 dollar win and so if i always plya it down I will never win> i don't know. I still look at it as what other activity could I do for a while and walk away with mor emoney than I walked in with. NONE!

P.S. Ollie's the new Big Lots like store near the Galleria is stupid. It is dirty and has crap> I love crap! And i was excited about it but relaly it was a let down. Big Lots is way better!!!The stuff was not even that cheap and it was all like dented and crap, I did not buy one tihng whe nI never walk out of Big Lots wihtout like two huge bags of stuff. I say maybe it has a chance in the future but righ tnwo it is el horible!

Feast oF Love , oh my
We went to see Feast Of Love last night. Like I just have not loved the movies I went to recently and it is sad. I thought it was kinda like a quirky sorta romanitc comedy from the previews but no IT IS a sad, drama filled porno. It was really crazy how much nudity and sex was in it. Like really unnecesary, noone ever had a bra or udnerwear on and even if they had a shirt on , the nipples were clearly shown half the time. Like I didn't hate the movie, it just wasn't what I was expecting. You know what I mean. Very strange. Morgan Freeman and Greg Kinnear were in it. I don't know it had good parts but overall just I don't know.

By the by I am kinda proud of myself when we all went out the other night I carried a tray of seven cosmos and wlaked them outside to the table without spilling any , and that included a step and a door! And i had already had a cosmo or two before this feat de excellence!

Haha I love Mr. Bean. yeah I saw it like opening night! He is so great!
tinypliny - 10/06/07 12:54
Did you watch Mr. Bean's Holiday? I can almost guarantee no one who has even a bit of humour left in them will dislike more than 5 seconds of that movie! I laughed my guts out yesterday.

Will I ever stop procrastinating
I am the ultimate procrastinator. My only actual homeowkr that has to be handed in each week is my lab and I have all week and I always put it off until wednesday night and then I wait and do anything possible (like read years worth of random estrip journals) and then cleaning the shelf and organizing my backpack and what not in order to not do my lab. And then I just am forced to do it at like midnight and do it and think next week I will just do it early and not worry and be able to go out on wednesday but i never do. And so here I am again, and gossip girl starts in an hour and I refuse to miss it!
mk - 10/04/07 07:13
by sooner i think i meant like...earlier? like..earlier than 5th grade...damn it's too early.
mk - 10/04/07 07:12
haha it's good to know things haven't changed since like 5th grade, maybe even sooner. LEG LAB!
jbeatty - 10/03/07 23:22
I have gotten really good at printing out powerpoint slides and three-hole punching them in lieu of doing anything productive.
jenks - 10/03/07 22:28
I call that "fake studying" (rearranging your backpack, etc- doing everything possible to not work)- and it is a FINE ART, so don't sell yourself short!!!!
james - 10/03/07 20:56
I always, always, always do my work the night before. So you are in good company.
libertad - 10/03/07 19:57
you better work it ;)

And Now the Kids
As (e:strip) is the offical source of Britney Spears news I thought I should report it here first! Britney has lost the kids. Kevin has them until further notice of the court. Her life is really in the poop hole now. She is really really sad!!!

I feel really bad. Lets see what that crazy kid on YouTube that now has his own tv show has to say about this!

james - 10/02/07 10:10
Poor kids, either Brittany or Kevin... that is like choosing between a werewolf and a grizzly bear.
anne - 10/02/07 09:17
As any good American with a computer and a boring job, I've been following the Britney saga via PerezHilton and TMZ, and I must say I love that she lost the kids and best of all, she didn't even seem to care. Someone get that woman some detox and some anti-depressants! Not that K-Fed is probably the greatest role model but I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate his kids and won't try to kill them.
lilho - 10/02/07 01:39
why? it didn't have to be this way! britney, stop being a drunken whore! that's my job! ok, jk. sorta. but really, can't she just get her shit together? i need the old britney back. the one who was still really tacky, and lip synched, but had rock hard abs, and made music videos, that were dancy and delicious. where is she?

Met The 'rents
I met (e:libertad)'s mom and husband joe. As most of you know, I am not good at meeting new people. I tend to say inapprorpriate things or stay really quiet. Needless to say they hated me at first but then came around later on. They were really cool, I also met the bro coincidentally named Paul. Everyone seemed really nice and kind and fun. I hope i wasn't too unbearable and embarassing! This was just a quick update , more to come later

P.S. in like the 4 minutes I have been on estirp like 5 people have written a joruanl
libertad - 09/30/07 00:07
Thanks for coming out to meet them. I'm sure they loved you especially for laughing at their stories about the old lonely neighbor. That woman is so sad, but so laughable.

Embarrassing? I was never. Unbearable? Just a little when I was trying to merge into traffic and you were talking so fast I really couldn't concentrate on both.

I loved our time at the beach.
tinypliny - 09/29/07 21:48
Hhehehe, I love people saying inappropriate things. Rocks my leaky boat! Wait a second... you didn't say much when I met you couple months back... hmmm...
southernyankee - 09/29/07 21:10
Hey... What's wrong with lovin' Tab???
anywhozits, Mike I am sure that you were as fascinating as ever. I mean seriously, who could not love you? right! You are awesome!!!
james - 09/29/07 20:42
That is always a nerve wracking situation. When I have met the families of past boyfriends or Jim's father I instantly become a 1950's kid picking up his date and making talk with their 1950's father. I call them 'sir' or 'ma'am' and pretend to really enjoy their company and beverage selection.

"gee wiz sir, how did you know I love diet Tab!"

it is both hilarious and grotesque.
