Tonight, children, we have an exercise in climax and anti-climax.

MrCoFfEe555: i heard the most horrible commercial ever on the radio today

MrCoFfEe555: lol
MrCoFfEe555: ok so it starts of with these ppl and they are talking aobut what to get for xmas
MrCoFfEe555: then santa claus comes in and starts talking aobut all the good little boys and girls and then moves onto gifts
MrCoFfEe555: well guess what blake, guess where santa claus buys his gifts
MrCoFfEe555: puffers paradise!
MrCoFfEe555: ""santa claus"" stated that he needed a new bong
MrCoFfEe555: IN the commerical

How Annoying Are You In Your Online Diary? brought to you by Quizilla

You are moderately annoying! Congratulations! There's hope for you, though not much.
You are probably a nice person, but that doesn't make up for all this. Yet.
PS - No one cares about your AP History class.

...Stupid quiz, I don't rant about my AP History class... anymore.

This last weekend was greatness! Saturday night was a Lamarite celebration of my birthday, which I absolutely loved to death. After a short trip perusing Christmas lights, here's all the stuffage I got:

Truth or Dare Jenga
A UT Christmas ornament
A Lord of the Rings 2003 calendar
Vice City (woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!)
Vice City strat guide (after a long convo about how none of us cheat at video games)
A burnt-orange UT athletics shirt that I think fits perfectly.
A framed picture of myself and Steph, taken on Homecoming night.
A shark-tooth necklace.

What's better? I got shown the single funniest thing I have ever seen in my life on that Saturday night. It's called Rejected, and it's an animated short by Don Hertzfeldt. Search for it, but not if you don't understand the kind of wacky, wacky things I consider funny. If your sense of humor is the same kinda bag as mine, then download away - I was crying from the hilarity.

Thanks a million times over to Alex, Aroon, Thomas, Max, Steph, Rachel, Rachel, and Tina for all the wonderful things and the great times.

Read this and then tell me you still want this administration in the White House.

Taken from michellebranch.net:

How old are you?
18.

Are you single?
No, my guitar is my boyfriend.

I think it's a sign from the gods, personally.

So I'm 18. My birthday doesn't feel as exciting as it used to anymore. Maybe I've passed the hill of enjoyable birthdays. I remember being young and the night before my birthday felt like an early Christmas Eve. I wouldn't be able to sleep and I'd shake in my bed because I was that excited. Tuesday just came and went.

But at least it was a nice Tuesday. People at school were nice. People kept saying they would have gotten me cards or would have made me cookies had I told them it was my birthday. I know it wouldn't have happened anyway, but at least they're good at sounding sincere. (To her credit, though, Cheryl showed up at school the next day with a batch of tasty cookies. That's class.)

Now on to the business that I'm sure you all want to know about - the goods. I got:

$200 in cash
$50 to upgrade the computer
$100 to Banana Republic (I can already hear Steph sighing with relief that I'm finally getting some new clothes)
LotR Special Edition DVD's
DDRMAX (woo!)
$15 to Blockbuster from Kris (a damn good present from a poor music student)
A batch of cookies from Steph

Thanks to everyone who wished me well! I had a great day even with my weird mood swings.

More importantly, anyone who didn't watch the Rockefeller Christmas Tree special tonight on NBC really missed out. From this show, I am able to draw one very important conclusion:

Michelle Branch is a goddess.

I never thought it possible, but she was absolute perfection on this special. Not only did her cuteness surpass Ms. Rachael Leigh Cook, but her voice was utterly heavenly. And as a bonus? She wore cute little fuzzy clothes. Soft ones, the kind you want to roll up in a ball next to the fire in.

I will do anything for that woman.

Or, as Rach put it, "I wonder if she has a sister?"

Yay for more teenage drama. Funny how the more mature you think you are, the more the stakes heighten whenever you get into stupid little fights like this. If this stupidity turns out the way I think it will, I think I'll take up piano.

I dunno. I just had this vision of myself playing mellow jazz music. I could probably feel the same sort of despair as the jazz musician. And I'd have a good environment - there's a baby grand downstairs with a gorgeous view out the windows.
