Ok, you just read the story, now heres the bat...kinda looks like a mouse with wings

Concert at the Rock

2005-09-25T12:28:00.000-05:00

This is your face again...I like the music and the background was very cool too.

This is Nifty 250, I was supposed to hear them when I heard your face, but the cops stopped that. Too bad, theyre awesome. They won the battle of the bands at the base lake on 9/24

This is Never Luke, I didnt much care for them...

Pictures from Mavstock

2005-09-19T11:53:00.000-05:00

I like this picture because it's during a strobe light, and i like the shadow on the wall.

This is the Vocalist, Im not sure what his name is though. I got to talk with him after they were done playing. He's a great guy and seemed to appreciate my compliments.

Sorry about the lighting, it kinda sucks, but this was taken during the guitar solo during the song Fallen, #5 on the CD. This guy kicks ass at this solo.

This is Emphatic, the band we came to see. I'm not sure what song this was, but they were awesome, and had the biggest crowd of any band there.

This is Dielated...We went to Taco Bell while they were setting up and when we got back, they were playing, but they screamed too much for our tastes. They brought a crowd with them though.

This is Endeavor, Staci liked them alot and bought their last CD. We talked to the vocalist and he said that is probably the last CD that will say Endeavor on it, because a band in Seattle has the same name and is being gay about it, so they will need to change their name.

Liquid Static-they were decent, but couldnt get the crowd into it, and this was their last show, because band members are moving to different places. I found this out when I talked to the bassist

Weekend

2005-09-14T10:37:00.000-05:00

This weekend....
Friday is my two month with Staci....she has to cheer at 7, and then we are going to romeo's to eat dinner
Saturday is the big Emphatic/Venaculas concert at UNO...I'm pumped it'll be a good time
After the concert we are going to hang out with Brian and Amanda at Alex's house in Bellevue. Should be a good time
Sunday I work 6-230, and then I'm free for the rest of the night.
Next friday night I'm going to the Rock in Papillion to see a concert. The concert will be Your Face and Nifty 250, with Never Luke, who Ive never heard of. I'm gonna go with Ashley, it should be a good time

Your Face

2005-09-06T22:02:00.000-05:00

News....or not really

2005-09-06T21:46:00.000-05:00

So, I find myself in the UNO Library on a tuesday, a day I have no classes, and it's almost 10pm. what the fuck am I doing here? Oh yeah, studying for Criminal Justice test I have in 11 hours. I am actually waiting for everyone else to finish their parts of our review sheet and then for someone to type it up and send it to me. Wow, I've been here since 7:15, and probably won't leave till 10:30....amazing for me. I don't spend this much time studying in a week, let alone one night.

So, Brian started with paypal last monday, and worked 10-7 last week for training and has now switched to his normal 3-midnight shift from now till god knows when. We are still planning on moving out sometime between november and january. I can't wait.

Ok, so, Sunday night I went with Staci to a girl named Adria's birthday party at her house, and we got to listen to some live music out of her garage until the cops responded to a noise complaint. the band was called your face, and they are from papillion, and they kicked ass for being local. If they had a CD, I'd buy it. they play at the rock in papillion on friday september 23rd. I might go if Staci has an away game that week. I'll post the picture i took from my cell phone in a post later on, I'm uploading it as we speak. I was actually feeling their music.

Anyway, thats it for now, more later

Papillion vs. Papillion

2005-09-04T16:55:00.000-05:00

The game friday night was awesome. In the 2 previous years, Papillion LaVista South got murdered by The old school. This year was different. South had the lead 20-17 with 1:40 to go in the game...Papillion drove the length of the field and kicked a field goal to force overtime. South got the ball first and after 2 or so plays fumbled and Papillion recovered. They got the ball on the 10 yard line, and with their first play, kicked a field goal and won 23-20. Kinda disappointing, but a good game afterall. And let me say that parking sucks at South when the game of the year draws about 7,000 people and it took us like half an hour to get out of the parking lot after the fireworks display that was so big I wondered if America won some war I wasn't aware we were waging.

Saturday night was alot of fun, Staci and I went to Brian's friends, Kyle and Robert's apartment off 36th and 370, and let me say, those are very nice apartments. We just hung out there and laughed at the drunks like I have done oh so many times in my days before joinging them. Good night.

Today I had to work 6-230 for the city. here is what I did:
6-630: Nothing
630-730: Trash at Zorinsky
745-830: Slept
830-1015: cleaned the shelters and pounded some posts into the ground
1015-1100: wasted time
1100-1215: drove to my house and ate lunch
1215-130: Nothing
130-230: I left at 130 and got paid till 230, so again, nothing....wow, what a job....

Tomorrow will suck seeing as I have to work 14 hours between both jobs, but at least Ill be making 9.50 for 7 hours and 12.38 for 7 hours. 6-1 and 2-9 will be my hours....
Anyway, thats a good sized post, more lata

First game

2005-09-02T11:56:00.000-05:00

So, tonight is Staci's first football game of the season to cheer at. It is the big Papillion/ Papillion South rivalry, and there will be fireworks following the game. I know I will be there, and so will many of the people I work with a no frills....ugh....anyway...this will be a fun time, and if brian wasn't ditching me, it would be better, but i guess i understand brian. Tomorrow night brian's friends are putting on a graduation party for him in bellevue and i believe i will be in attendance. Sunday night, sorry guys I can't come to the land, as I work at 6am the next day. For those of you who don't know, Staci and I are still doing incredibly well, this is probably my best relationship to date, no arguments so far, and going strong. Anyway, I'm tired of this for today, more sometime in the future

Back To School

2005-08-22T08:35:00.000-05:00

So, I don't really have much news to type, other than it is the first day of school again....Oh well, it just means i get to sleep in more than I got to during the summer. My schedule is also very acceptable, once again, just a MWF schedule, with me getting done at noon on fridays.

Ok, let's see, Brian Amanda Staci and I went to the zoo a couple sundays ago, that was alot of fun. I got to meet some people Staci works with, and it was a very good day. Other than that, nothing exciting to report.

I dont know the title

2005-08-19T23:36:00.000-05:00

Ok, so, August 16th was our one month. We had a great time. It was nice to go out on a real date again. We went to TGI Friday's for dinner. I got the Jack Daniels burger, go figure. We saw the skeleton key, great movie....the ending kicked ass, it was a twist, and I thought I had it figured out, but I was one step wrong, damn storyline.

So, saturday night at the land was a crazy time, but definitely a good experience to have gone through without the bullshit of an MIP. Anyway, enough time spent away from Staci....more later in the coming first week of school.....

Thursday Night

2005-08-12T10:54:00.000-05:00

Ok, so thursday night I took Staci to my Aunt and Uncle's house for dinner, and it turns out that Staci's stepdad is the head janitor at bellevue west, where my cousin lisa goes to school. It also turns out that he is one of her favorite people at bellevue west and she happened to have a picture of him with her at the end of last school year. Crazy how small the world is... Anyway back to the night...After dinner, we were driving back to my house and out of nowhere I decided we should go check out these new weird looking swings at a park near my house. Laugh at us if you want, but we've both been feeling swings lately. Anyway, that went very well, and the swings turned out to be the shiznat. Then we went back to my house and talked till she had to go home around 945. At this time I called Brian to see what he was doing, and thus began our adventure.

When I got to brian's at 10, we decided to walk to laVista Keno and play some keno and chat about some stuff. We played 8 games and didn't win anything, but it was a good new experience for me. Shortly after we got back to brian's house, we decided to walk to walgreen's and buy some wintergreen skoal bandits and try it out, see what it was like. So, we did, and we walked around for like 20 minutes before it hit me, and it made me feel mildly drunk, but went away within like an hour. It was fun, but I won't be doing it again, no holes in the gums for ben. After that we walked back to brian's and it was like 1230am, and I was supposed to be at work by 7. Well, we ended up talking till like 4 am, so I called in to work today and brian and I woke up with the king. That concludes our adventure, but I will update sometime soon about our apartment thoughts. Bye for now all

I'm back biatches

2005-08-10T15:27:00.000-05:00

Ok, In my recent hiatus from blogger, I have learned many things. Probably most of which i won't remember for this post.
1. Emphatic is the greatest band ever and I look forward to a concert and new music from them
2. Staci is a much better fit for me, we have more in common, and I am much happier now
3. It kicks ass when your parents leave and you don't
4. I knew this before, but Jack is very good at getting me drunk fast, and I love it
5. the land parties are the mother fuckin shit-thanks ted
6. It will be awesome when Brian and I get an apartment in 3-4 months
7. Wrestling may be stupid, but it's fun to get back together with a friend and watch together like old times
8. .....Thats all I got for now, more posted in time

Oh, by the way, I'm back, and will be posting sporadically. I look forward to the party this saturday and I'm out bitches

Temporary suspension

2005-07-01T15:28:00.000-05:00

I have decided to temporarily suspend this website. I see no point in updating when other people don't update or comment on my site. My guess is that when school starts again i will start updating again, but no promises. Anyway, I will post more sometime in the weeks and/or months to come

Ramblings

2005-06-28T15:45:00.000-05:00

So, in the last two weeks have seen 4 movies, and the next two I see will be free. One because of the reel deal card and one because I have a $10 gift certificate left over from my birthday. All four movies have kicked ass. First, the longest yard....hilarious, adam sandler and chris rock, would you expect any less? Second, Batman Begins....the more I think about it, the more i like it, and I think Christian bale is the best batman to date. he is contracted for 2 more films and they are said to include the joker and two-face, possibly the riddler in one of those two, but I guess we'll see. Third, Mr. and Mrs. Smith...kinda corny, but I loved the action and it was also funny as hell. Fourth, Land of the Dead...easily the most gruesome movie I have ever seen, but it was awesome, and I want to see it again. Anyone who hasn't seen it or wants to go again, let me know. Damn, I still need to see Star Wars....how crazy is that, the biggest star wars fan in the group has yet to see the movie? It even surprises me that I haven't seen it. Anyway, time to go mow the grass in the 96 degree heat. oh well, if I die, shit happens....later all

Back in the group

2005-06-18T11:37:00.000-05:00

Although I had recently taken a 3 month or so hiatus from the group, I am back now. I apologize to all involved for disappearing but what can ya do? Anyway it has been great hanging out with all the guys or a couple of the guys all the time here recently. The longest yard kicked some serious ass! Brian, I love the chats while wandering your neighborhood as well as the pool games that were very evenly matched. Matt I loved the food and the game was awesome. Also, thanks for talkin me into going to batman begins, good movie...we'll have to see mr. and mrs. smith this week and it's my treat. Ted, I will be there tonight, and I'm sure it will kick major ass as well. And Nick, what can I say? GO HUSKERS!!! and texas will lose to baylor....
