Negative Internet

So, I'm actually surprised that my internet is working. This is kinda ruining the whole "blog experience" and turning it into a "I'll either complain or say I'll post later" blog. So guess what, I'm posting RIGHT NOW. This is my post and it is filled with text, useless information and some more text. It has a picture in it too. See it? It's a tiny turtle I rescued one day while mowing the lawn last year. He's the best pet turtle ever. Very loyal, easy to take care of, quiet. Everyone should have a pet turtle!

Maybe my blog is too personal, too honest, too depressing at times....but honestly, I need a mental health day. I need a mental health week, month, year. So I'm doing the best I can right now to retain stability, and that is to distance myself.



This is around the time when I listen to a lot of Kataonia. Depressing metal for the win. Off the new album, even though I like the older stuff more.

Stray Updates

This photo explain it all.
My internet is back for the moment, blasting my Place to Bury Strangers vinyl till my head explodes. (the album is Exploding Head)


I suggest anyone who loves music to buy a record player. Sure, they can be a hassle sometimes when it ends up being warped or some odd defect from being pressed wrong, like skipping or heavy crackles, but it really changes the way you listen to music. Everything pops out so crisp. The highs are higher, the lows are lower. Everything is how it should really sound. Plus you can listen to older records. I might play some of my parents Pink Floyd later. That's always nice.

So much stuff, so little time

So I'll cut it short.

Friday-
We ended up waking to something quite joyful, or not at all. My cat was sitting on our front porch with a hole in its back. We suspected that our horse accidentally stepped on it. I was pretty scared for it because the last cat that got stepped on we couldn't save, also this was one of my favorite cats. Luckily none of its organs were crushed, but it did end up breaking its pelvis. It should be pretty healed after a month so we have to keep it caged up for awhile. What a relief hearing that was.

Saturday-
I got my electric start put in my car. I didn't get to work. This saddens me so much, because all I want to do with my life is work and rot away. I was asked to come in though. I almost had tears of joy when I had to tell them "sorry...I can't come in...my electric start is being put in my car that day and it will take hours to do."

Towards the end of the day my heavy depression started to kick in when I thought to myself how Sunday will just be me waiting to go in and work another full work. I ended up driving down to Square Records in Akron when one of my friends from around the area asked to do something that night. I dragged him along to my record store adventure, where I ended up buying the new Explosions In the Sky record for some inspiration. I got really thirsty so we headed off to a local coffee shop to get a vanilla latte where we just so happen to come across an open mic poetry event. My friend also had his notebook with him so he ended up reading some of his stuff to the crowd. I give him props for that...I would never be able to read any of my stuff in front of anyone.

When we got back we were in the an mood so we ended up drinking and recording music, which suprisingly was a very good combination.

Sunday- (rest rest rest rest)

Today-
All I could think of today was how much I dislike philistines, how much these repetitive drone tasks are taking a toll on my mind and the whole "meaning of life" resonating every second I pull the lever, lift a box, put in ink, repeat. By the end up the day I felt pretty fried as I kept being reminded about how great overtime and extra money is.

Mogutova- Not From Anyone Else (2011)

Your Debut Album

1 - Go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2 - Go to Random quotations: http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four words of the very last quote of the page is the title of your first album.

If you want to do this again, you'll hit refresh to generate new quotes, because clicking the quotes link again will just give you the same quotes over and over again.

3 - Go to flickr's "explore the last seven days" http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days/
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

Put it all together, that's your debut album.

When I first went to the random wikipedia article I got "wikimedia error". What a great band name, right?....

I hope people buy my album.

Rambles

For some reason I'm feeling really creative today, or at least for the time being. I keep thinking back to when I went to vocational school and had hours in my graphics class to just photoshop, do web design and learn at my own will. Sure, I had to do tests and project and such, but for the most part it was up to me. I don't really have anywhere I'm going with this, but it was nice to have hours to spend on being artsy. I might have to wait till this weekend to do anything though. Maybe short film, photography, music? I don't want to waste this weekend away just playing Halo Reach all day. It would still be nice if I could create right now though, while my brain juices are flowing and I'm still composed.

Titleless

There's no time to write what I want right now, as I'm being watched and expected to gaze into my machine for the next few hours, as if it's some entertaining television program. I kinda want...to change what I had here last. So now I changed it! No point in making posts about making future posts. So, instead..I'm going to talk about the present to fill up some space. I am drinking a cranberry Mikes Hard Lemonade. I don't usually drink hard l emonade but I found a liking to it tonight. I feel my mind rotting away more and more everyday now...I just want to be bored, free, calm. The end.

Frustrations of an aspiring blogger

1.) No subscribers
2.) Restricted blogging times
3.) Brain dead times when blog time is available.
4.) Having Time Warner Cable (Having Time Warner means horrible internet, even when running at its "best")

For awhile now I've been actually thinking about making a new youtube channel, since my old one is dedicated to music videos and bullshit short film. Also in the midst of this idea, to maybe invest in a better camera microphone to get rid of that annoying static sound the wind makes.

I'm actually not even sure this will post.

I really want to blog...but until I have more time to do so and my internet is back to working at "maybe acceptable but still below average" speeds.

A Clip

Just a few days ago we got a new HP Photosmart printer to replace the one we've been using for the past 7 or 8 years or so (I think it was time). I'm thinking it could really help me for building a photography portfolio that might help me get a job in it. Either way, I love being able to have physical copy of the photos I take over just digital. It actually looks better printed, I'd say. I kinda want to have a photo of someone or something and just keep taking photos of people holding it and it being in random places, and each time print the most recent, almost like infinite regression with photos. I think it might have some neat symbolism if done correctly.

Bloggerdroid!

I guess my Android is really screwing up. It posted this a few days ago..
