Yay! friday!
I had a 1hr quiz today in my last class. I think I did quite well. However, I was walking out of the building, and at the door, a man in a suit and sunglasses, asked me where some guys office was (only having one class in that building I didn't know.) I say "I'm sorry, I don't know" we went on our ways, I took one step out of that building and like a lightning bolt . o O ( That was Tom Osborne!!) At least I think it was, It looked like him, sounded like him, he was dressed they way I'd expect him to be. (He is in the house of representatives.) The only way I can be sure I didn't dream is the feeling I had when he spoke to me. Sub consciously I recognized him. All afternoon I've been thinking. What do you say to some one you admire so much? What should you say to an American hero? I treated him like any other man. I think that's what he'd prefer. After he retired from coaching they named the field for him, and his name was painted next to the sidelines of each end. When they replaced the astroturf with field turf he asked that he name be omitted. He doesn't like a lot of unnecessary attention. That's cool.

Al is quitting his day job. I remember him from before he was poorbob. I don't know what to say about him. I don't think I know him well enough to call him a friend. His site is cool, check it out.

I was at mp3.com and found this neat little song, I feel I have to share it. :
Better Than I Am -- Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie

My blog page got nearly 150 hits the other day. I'd like to take a headcount. drop me a line and tell me you're reading this farmerjoe@mercuryfrog.com

Freedom.
it's 6:05 PM. I'm officially single on peacefull terms. I have to tell somebody. Best of all I'm out of the relationship hating her a little less, a lot less.
more to come....
She is making it easier. I got a call at 7:30 this morning. she expects me to drive her back from midas. it would take me over a half hour to get there and a half hour back, plus any time wasted in between. The car she is driving is a write off, and she dosn't have enough money to take the freiking bus, (she dosn't have one dollar?!) let alone a cab. She dosn't know what the problem is, but if she brings it in early, she can have it by 2:00pm. It's a piddly 1 mile from her campus, I think she can walk, but, she "has nothing [she] could study". and her first class ins't untill after 2:00.
-------
Update: I got another call at about 9:00. She's sitting at Midas expecting me to drop everything and come get her. Remember this is after I told her that I would not waste my whole day carting her around. She said that I don't care about her, well, I don't care enough to let her take advantage of me like this. I told her that. Maybe getting her to finnaly call this "relationship" quits is clocer than I thought.
_____
my blog can be a bit hard to read (it's kinda narrow) since merc is a busy frog. I'm gonna try to widen it myself. this graphic was the first I coud find in a frantic search. this is a way cool site anyway. Real Life comics.

still
I am stupid
^_
yeah, I could never be a vet, I could never put a puppy to sleep. The bitch gave me an altimatum. "Give me another chance" If I diddn't she'd never talk to me again. blah blah blah... well, I should have called her bluff, but I was tired and I wanted her to stop whining. "What did I do to deserve this punishment" Now I'm upset and my mind is a bit clearer. and I'm pissed. S&*! now how long will I have to go and 'try' to make things work between the two of us?! I was so close. I could taste the freedom. It tasted like Pepsi. I encourage all of you to be organ donors, who knows how many others there are like me that need a spine.

I diddn't make Merc's cut. I know I have not bloged in a while but, my weekend got screwed up. I started blogging at about midnight, but my computer crashed. here it is a good 10 hours later. I be bloggin' once again.
I have to hurt some one's feelings. :( I don't want to do it. I should follow my own advice (borrowed from seinfeld) and end this like taking off a bandaid.
I do try to go for quality over quantity. I don't realy know what I can blogabout though.... I could go into great detail about how women are bizare creatures that .. well. are nuts. I seriously hope that my observations are unique to one specimin. .. OK.. here's the deal. I WANT to be single. There is some one who dosn't want me to be single. However, I thek she'd be just as happy with a puppy.. better yet, a puppy that can drive a car. I don't want to be a puppy. I'm not in love with this person.. Yes, it's possible to love some one with out being in love. I don't want to be her boyfreind any more. Why do I feel like breaking this off is like euthanizing a poor lil animal??
I'll have to worry about this later. it's about 11:00 time to get some food. .. get dressed and be productive for the day.
in my next blogging I will rant about my roomate .the freak.

What shall I blog about this evening? My spring break is over.. My school has announced a new chancellor. Puff daddy was aquited. Ask me if i care.. Ask me if a chicken has lips. I can't explain the emotion going through my head. I feel as though I'm insane. Who am I? Where am I going? What am I doing? Why should I care? What's for dinner? Wouldn't you like to be a Pepper too? All these questions. and no answers.. (except 42).

I installed the RAM into my parents' HP tonight, they have 256mb of PC100 SDRAM of couse they are running a Celeron 400 so.. it's not like they have a real powerfull computer... next will be a second HD and my dad was asking me about a CD burner. Were looking at $200 more of upgrades if they go with a burner and ad HD. they need a HD and I can get them a nice 40 gigger for roughly $100. I think I will wait untill this summer to get it for them. They'll need it more and it'll be cheaper. Again we have 2 32MB DIMMS of SDRAM. we are looking to sell them if you are intersted contact me
speaking of ram.. this alwaus makes me laugh

oh dialup sucks.. it sucks more that thre is only one phone line.. here it is nearly midnight and I could have blogged nearly 2 hours ago. ugh.

I went to the HP site last night and aparently the panel that the motherboard is mounted to will come open like a door or something.. I'm gonna atempt installing new ram tonight. As you can see in the picture, There is a DIMM in each of the two sockets.. so I have 2 32mb DIMMs of ram I'm intersted in selling.
I have updated the previously posted pic.. I added a red circle around the ram.. so that those of you who don't know what you're looking for don't have to play where's waldo. If the pic in the below post is a broken link. let me know.. I've been using geocites and it's been a pain in the ass so far.. I'd like to use Mercs server, hmm I guess I should get around to asking him for some FTP action.
Have you ever done any thing just for the hell of it? If it dosn't realy hurt any body, (yet dosn't realy help any body) it's not too time consuming.. but you're not sure you want to be doing it? if you're confused to this poing.. welcome to my world.

Ram.. that magical thing that makes the world go around.
My computer only sees 196 mb of my ram.. but I just added 256 to the current 64. And in my parents' computer.. well, look.
I don't know how I'm suposed to get the ram sockets. it's as if they don't want me to upgrade. I told my dad .. (who dosn't realy know a lot about the parts inside the computer) ... he suggests taking out the brackets,.. and re-riviting them to the chassis. um.. well, it's his computer. and I realy realy realy don't want to unmount the motherboard. so... I'll remove the CD-rom drive and we'll take out the frame... whatever works I guess. (we do have the means to re-rivit the case together.)
I diddn't blog last night.. I had ment to but I was tired.

Napster is my Prozac.
Sometimes lyrics just speak to you. they say what you are feeling.
I am still living with your ghost
lonely and dreaming of the west coast
I don't want to be your downtime
I don't want to be your stupid game
with my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe I'll find myself a new place
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
go and try to shake away this disease
we can live beside the ocean
leave the fire behind
swim out past the breakers
watch the world die
I am still dreaming of your face
hungry and hollow for all the things you took away
I don't want to be your good time
I don't want to be your fall-back crutch anymore
I'll walk right out into a brand new day
insane and rising in my own weird way
I don't want to be the bad guy
I don't want to do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to feel some sunshine
I just want to find some place to be alone
we can live beside the ocean
leave the fire behind
swim out past the breakers
and watch the world die
I just want to crawl into a cave for a while and be away from other people not that i'm un willing to talk to people,, I just want to be ... alone... just me and my fridge . and my mp3s .. and a pillow. that's all I need
it's spring break, I should be happy.. I'm not.
I ordered some ram last weekend. it shipped out around 1:00 this morning. it got to Omaha around noon.. it hasn't moved since. it should be in Beemer monday afternoon. Ram makes me happy. it dosn't call you on the phone when you want to be left alone. it dosn't tell you it loves you. it dosn't want to talk about it's feelings. it dosn't cry when you say you're not sure you should have invested in it. it dosn't cry when you say you want to take thins slowly. it dosn't fall in love with other people and call you up to bitch about problems. it dosn't have boobs.
512mb of PC100 SDRAM 256 for me and 256 for my parents' computer. we will have a 64mb DIMM of PC66SDRAM left over, if anyone would like to purchase it let me know.
I think I'll blog more later this evening.
