Don’t you love it when you’re getting ready for something important and the button on your clothes breaks, there is no needle and thread, and you don’t really feel like trying to fix it? Then you’re traveling so you don’t have an extra dressier outfit? Well, that’s what happened this morning. My Old Navy Cargos decided today that when I pull them out of my bag, the front button just falls off. So I am like CRAP. I am not that handy with a needle and tread and I have no clue where any is, and my Uncle (works from home) doesn’t know either and my Aunt is at work and the kids are at school. So, I was like, I am running to Rivergate Mall to Old Navy to get me some new cargos. I get there and I swear like every tall kid in the Nashville area shops THERE. They had like my waist size but like length was 28 or 30. I was like, this is great, if I get 30s when I sit down it will look like I have capri’s on… LoL… so you get the point if I wore 28s. So I was like, fine… change of plans lets find different pants to match the polo. Again, every tall size was sold out. So I ended up getting a clearance polo and some “worker jeans” that are a faded brownish color. It looks dessy enough. Plus I can wear my Nikes with this outfit.

It’s funny… I’ve been to Nashville, TN three times now and I already know the North side of Davidson County and most of Summner. Well, the college visit is here shortly… so I am going to jet!

May I just say that even when it is thunderstorming in TN it is STILL beautiful?!? It was so nice, I was driving into town and it was pouring in OH and KY. Then as soon as I got into Nashville it was like everything cleared up and suddenly there was blue sky and THE SUN! It is warm and then tonight we had a beautiful thunderstorm. The smell was awesome and the sound was even better. To be able to stand on a front porch and hear no cars, see no street lights, and to just hear rain and nature… is just peaceful. I will try and take pics tomorrow and post a few here to let everyone see what it’s like!

(Sorry for the lapse in posting about the drama, but I have to make my peace with this…) Tonight I found Amy and we had dinner to talk. After talking we figured out who was miscommunicating FALSE information and we’re fine. Then I decide that if this person communicated FALSE information to one person I am sure they did to the other person, Tabatha. So I did one better than calling, I showed up IN PERSON to talk to Tabatha. Let’s just say after we talked, we’re fine. She also receieved some crap and that explains what happened! So in the end… I didn’t do anything wrong, and someone took the story and tried to turn everyone that knows me against me… AMAZING!

Well, I am friends with everyone but the person who spread all the FALSE information. We finally decided to cut out “the-middle-person” and communicate for ourselves.

So that’s it!

Confirmed: Leaving for Nashville on Thursday instead of Friday

I am not excited at all… lol…

Later!

To my readers with brains: So sorry about all the drama . My friends and myself have decided to close the matter discussed the past few days and will be moving forth and no longer playing “Xanga tag” like some of the mindless readers subscribed for the pure pleasure of stalking and/or keeping track of me to write nasty things about me on their Xanga. So to my loyal, normal, readers… my apologizes for these stupid people’s behavior.

In other news… I am leaving a day early for TN this week. My aunt wants me to come down early, so that’s cool! I am finishing work tomorrow and that’s about it. Hope came over and we hung out like normal.

Well, gotta run…

Sweet! I’ve gone from loser to potential inmate at the local correction facility! Isn’t it funny how people gossip. Wait, wasn’t there something in that book called the Bible all you Christian school students are supposed to posses and know so well? Also wasn’t there another verse regarding judging someone and how those same standards God will judge you by? Oh well, but I don’t know anything, I am supposedly mentally ill… *rolls eyes*.

Oh the immaturity of some people… Will they ever learn or grow up?

It’s hilarious… three people walk out of my life and I am suddenly a quote, “loser who don’t have a bunch of really cool friends.” Ah, that sweet Tree of Life mentality that I do not miss at all. The mentality that if you aren’t my friend and fit my mold of what a friend is, then you’re a loser who is lonely. What people seem to forget is that I’ve been away from Tree of Life since I was 15. Three years later, I’ve done just fine and have plenty of non-TOL friends. Actually, I only have two TOL friends…. but like 100+ that I can pull out of my Cell/PDA that I am friends with and would vouch for me. Maybe for the shear fun I should list like everyone I am friends with off the top of my head. However, I don’t feel like typing all that.

Maybe someday these kids will grow up. So sad when their own classmates who don’t associate with them all that much, who talk to me, agree with me. It’s even sadder when their peers PARENTS agree with me. One day they’ll see. Actually one day soon… TOL for them ends in June and then they enter my world. If only we could attach a camera to them all… I’d make a killing at a new reality show.

So Hope’s coming over tonight. We’re going to be general dorks and prolly play video games. Who knows…

Well, gotta run…

Thanks to Hope… I am totally addicted to Inferno 2 on MTV . I just sat and watched like the entire season until today (a DVR is the best thing since sliced bread… and even better when it is on your PC ). I also finished Real World: Philadelphia, which I was also behind on. So I got the TV shows caught up for the most part. I still have like one movie and a few sitcoms to finish watching.

So, tomorrows plans consist of the following:
Final Day for Projects
Cleaning
Laundry

On a techie side note… I guess running Norton instead of Trend Micro paid off… read: http://www.techworld.com/security/news/index.cfm?NewsID=3548

So, hope ya all are doing fine… leave me some comments!

Today has been pleasant. I worked (nothing new there) then played D2: LOD with Hope. That was fun. This brings me to now… I need to eat dinner… Then maybe work some more. Then clean and maybe catch-up on TV I haven’t watched… lol. That sounds like a plan to me…

Well kiddies… enjoy…

It’s kind of interesting how God works. I just don’t know… it’s like you lose people as friends, but you gain others and/or develop a better friendship with those of the past. I know I am not making any sense, but I am to me. I have to honestly say that I am glad I’ve gotten some people out of my life (all of which will remain unnamed for *legal*   purposes… hahahahaha ). Then there are those who you both walked away from each other and then these people come back, but they’re different, more mature and “grown up”. Now you’re trying to figure out how to rebuild on what you have. Oh well, I’ll figure out with God’s help. That’s my random, only-if-you-truly-know-me-will-you-understand though of the week.

In other news. I am taking Alex tux shopping for his banquet this week. Hope and I will most likely be dorks one or more of the days this week. I leave for Nashville, TN on Friday morning. I have to finish cleaning my room Monday and Tuesday. I need to do laundry. I might change the sparkpulgs in the Grand AM this week if I get real productive. If I really go all out I might get a new serpentine belt, plugs, wires, and run some crap through the fuel to clean my injectors.

I am feeling physically better. Still slightly confused about my health. I had 16+ hours of sleep and I’ve only been awake for like 10 or so hours and I am tired again. However, until our new health insurance kicks in… I can’t go to the doctors… how NICE. Maybe I will come out of it. I’ve done this before… however the last time I was this way I was growing taller and was like 12, but who knows.

Anything else to write about? Did I mention I was kind of stressed? Yeah, kind of, but trying to not let it get to me. Maybe that’s why I am so tired. Who knows. I figure I’ll get through it.

Well, I am going to go…

Later all,
John Boy
