. The important stuff is locked.
. If I know you in real life, chances are I won't add you here. Nothing personal.

. Please comment and let me know who you are - failure to do so means I probably won't add you back.

I've become somewhat a fan of NASCAR.

And after looking at ( this )

...you'll probably become a fan as well. Go ahead, resist - I dare you.

That is all.

Kind of don't want to go to work today.

/shameless plug & I'm off to work!

BY THE MOTHERFUCKING WAY:

I will set foot in a movie theater for this. That's how fuckin' stoked I am.

I've succumbed and joined Twitter. My phone has unlimited internet access so I can pretty much twitter from anywhere.

Follow me & I'll follow you. We can follow each other! Yay.

So this LJ Pingback thing. Y/N? Me thinks there are better things to which the LJ team can apply their time. I don't care who's linking to my posts, I certainly don't need an update anytime it happens. But pingback_bot? I totally want to go friend him like, now!

I'm going to quit putting it off and clean my damned car.

I'm doing the DA thing again. For like the third or fourth time. But hopefully this will inspire me to better archive my work. I still have so much I need to organize.

Check it out. There is some new stuff I don't think I've shared here.

He deserved it. One hundred percent. Did anyone else cry when his parents & sister accepted the award, because I sure as hell did.

And oh my god my stepdad might be retarded. If he doesn't stop saying that Heath Ledger lived a good life and down-playing Sean Penn's awesome performance in Milk, I might throw something at him.

I just thought of an awesome band name: Hand It Over.

Don't steal it, jerks. I might start a band one day.

Toodles.

So the building where I would've worked, had I gotten that job with the county, is going to be closed (if I'm reading the paper's correctly, in addition to the county jail). All inmates currently housed here in Prescott will be transferred to Camp Verde.

This is lolz for real. According to the mayor it's in response to the economic crisis and being able to save a supposed $2 million, in addition to being "safer." For those of you who don't live here, this is a super retarded move.

Camp Verde is over an hour away. Forget the hours and resources that will be wasted to simply transfer the roughly 600 inmates sitting in county jail. What the fuck are the officers supposed to do when they arrest someone and have to book them? They have to drive all the way to Camp Verde and back, that's 2+ hours, not including booking time. That's 2+ hours that officer will be off the street; this is safer how?

Retarded monkeys. All of them.

Fuck A&E network's online shop. Those fuckers clearly do not know what 'overnight shipping' is.

I bought my season 2 (part one) of Paranormal State, and I decided that I just couldn't wait the regular 7 to 10 business days for it to get here. That's like, a year. I was contemplating two day ground when I said fuck it, if I'm going to speed up the shipping, I better go all the way. So I did. I placed my order Friday morning (12/26). It is now Sunday (12/28) and it's still not here.

And don't give me any of that crap about Christmas delays. Christmas was over when I placed the order therefore that shit should've arrived today. FedEx does its thing on Saturday's right? Well I paid an extra $21 so they damn well should've.

Now it's not projected to get here until Monday at around 4:30pm, at which time I will be at work and can only hope that someone will be here to sign for the package.

Fuck you A&E. If it weren't for the fact that the box set doesn't hit stores until Jan. 20th (inauguration ya'll!) I never would've purchased from you dickwads.

...after they show the before & after photos

Girl moderating the infomercial: Wow, that is 360 degrees of transformation!

lulz 4 rl.

btw, working at Sunglass Hut (even if it's once a month) is totally paying off. Hello Ralph Lauren sunglasses that were originally priced $70, for which I paid $28!! Win.

...can you spot the gross grammatical error?



fyi: it's a real poster; it was actually utilized during a promotional event and displayed to the general public.

Awesome.


ps: I still hate the new profile layout, livejournal. Just in case the 5,000+ comments weren't feedback enough.

I went out again this afternoon to Jerome, since I didn't get anything yesterday on my photo excursion. I'm pleased to report that I got a few shots I'm happy with. I'm doing my sister's senior photos, so this is what we're calling the Fall installment. There will, of course be a Winter and Spring installment, because it's my sister.

And I had a little fun with the pirate flag I got for my birthday :D

( the voices in my head say you're gonna be a rock&roll star someday )

I just got this exciting urge to go out and take pictures. As soon as my sister gets home from school, I'm outta here! If I get anything good I'll post it later!

Toodles!

EDIT: Nothing good. All my old haunts in Prescott have been renovated so they don't hold that noir feeling anymore. I went into Jerome but by the time I got there the sun had gone down so there was really no point.

I was planning on staying away from LJ for most the night and just kind of keeping to myself, but in light of the milestone that has just taken place in my country, I feel the need to express how utterly ecstatic I am!

As I watch Barack Obama deliver is victory speech in Chicago, I can't help but feel so completely overwhelmed by how loud our country spoke today. People of all social, physical, economical, political, and racial backgrounds got out and made a difference. In the largest voter turnout our country has ever seen, history has been firmly made - Barack Obama has been elected the 44th and first African American President of the United States of America. I've always been proud of my country; I've never wished that I was anything but American. But for the first time in a long time, I have faith in my country. I have faith that change has arrived. I know that this victory is not the ultimate change we seek, but the beginning of an uphill battle to reform and rebuild a national unity and heal the divides that hold back our progress. It won't be easy, and I know that the government will not fix all our problems. But I remain hopeful in the fact that my voice was not only heard tonight, but listened to.


"It's been a long time coming, but...change has come to America."

I lied. Constantine is a fucking amazing movie.
