I haven't done much of anything worth mentioning. I've been playing my guitar some. I haven't played in a very long time, so I suck. At the moment I'm trying to play Kyoto Now, which isn't too difficult. I just have to get used to playing again.

There was a huge storm the other day. Power flickered on and off. My life's pretty boring right now. I have three weeks off before classes start back, so I've basically been doing nothing. I went to the dentist at 1:30 for a cleaning. The outcome is rewarding; the process is not.

I thought about going to the Warped Tour with Jason, but decided against. The only bands I would care to see are Bad Religion and Pennywise (who didn't come to Charlotte), or maybe the Suicide Machines. I hear they're putting on a great show. But it's really not worth having to wade through all the 13-16 year olds desperately trying to harness an image; "teeny boppers" as they are called. The ones who actually like Good Charlotte, Blink 182, Sum41, etc. and think they're "punk" or whatever label they wish to be. Irony and ignorance: destroying the earth, its populace, and intelligent humans' ears. I guess it's a case of monkey see, monkey do. Many of them do look like monkeys, especially the MxPx crowd. It doesn't really bother me that much. They are teenagers, after all. I'm just glad attempting to be "cool" wasn't a big concern of mine when I was young. Thank God I'm not a teenager anymore.

In other news, Thve Rock has to be one of the worst movies ever made. I made the mistake of watching some of it the other day. What a horrible movie. The acting is laughable, the characters are as unoriginal as can be, and it's extremely over dramatic. Plus it has Nicolas Cage, someone I've always hated (although that opinion may change). I'm angry today.
