A dude was shot in front of State's bookstores last Thursday. He just asked for directions and he got it in the jaw. At least that's what I heard. I'm talking to Keri again. We talk everyday, usually for a long while. Right now she's telling me how she likes Christina Aguilera better than Britney or Mandy Moore. I try to convince her they all suck. They'll be doing porn after they get too old for little girls to like them anymore and people become accustomed to their usual antics. Just like Modanna. Now we're talking about Matt "Catfish" Krynovich from 8th grade. We were "singing" Yellow Submarine and that reminded us of him, of course. I don't know why I write this stuff down. Just so I'll remember it in fifty years. I like little stupid things like that. Nostalgia is awesome.

My idiotic self had the following as an away message today (Someone thought it was funny and told me to put it in here).

I ain't here. Well, I probably am...but I'm either on the john or another more amusing activity. I didn't know you could type this much for your away message....If Bush gets elected I'm leavin'. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Democrat, he's just an idiot; he was in Skull and Bones, like his dad; he probably couldn't locate Romania on a map; and I think he's a hypocrite and isn't a true Christian. If anyone has seen Mr. Scott Thomas Morton please report it to me immediately. We've lost track of him. He probably figured out a way to get rid of his homing implant. I doubt the battery has gone dead this quick. It's raining. If this is Andrew, where've you been? If this is Keri, go screw your cow. Anyone else probably hasn't read this far. See you in the crowd.

Like I said, I'm a moron.

No class today and tomorrow.

Keri just told me that Jeremy used to like her. I'm shocked, haha. He would comment to Tasha about her (Keri's) butt. I have it on film.

Malloy is dead. I can't believe it. First Chris Watson, then Mary almost died, now this. A year ago I was depressed about something...well, someone, and Malloy knew all about it. We hadn't ever really been friends or anything...we were mutual friends of Taylor's, so we had hung out together at his house some, but other than that I didn't know him very well. Anyway, he talked with me a couple times about my problem and was very helpful. It meant a lot to me that he did that. I'll always remember that, Malloy, and you'll be remembered by me as a nice guy.

My family will be at the beach until Sunday.

In case I forget: Dorothy, Mike Lee says hey.

The gray cat that Jennifer gave me about a year ago had its second litter the other day. Sam was the father. Two are black, two are gray.

Yeah, they're adorable.

Man, I wish Sam hadn't died.

Justin married Koa today. I can't believe it. A year ago I would never have thought this would be going on. I hope it all works.

Not much else has been happening. There was a big game at State yesterday. Andrew got wasted afterward at a party where he also met some of the players. Amy has kidney stones so she was at the hospital all night and missed the game entirely.

That's something I've always been worried about developing. I know it would hurt, I know.

I've been trying to get in contact with Jason for a while. He hasn't responded to the two pieces of e-mail I sent. Either I have the wrong address, he doesn't use it anymore, he's been too busy to check it, or something is going on to prevent him from writing back. Whatever it is, I'd really like to hear from him.

However, in the case of newly developed distaste for me, I understand.

I went to buy another copy of "Full Circle" because my other one wore out.
