On Tuesday I skipped work and watched all three Lord of the Rings with two of my roommates.

I'm at work, not having too bad of a time. I talked to my girlfriend last night (incidentally it took me like 5 attempts to type that g-word, I don't know why) for a while... Definitely can't complain, life is pretty good.

What's so great about being normal, btw?

It's warm in the center of the bell curve, Crazy.

luke warm?

The extended editions? That would be like 11.5 hours long and is the *best* way to watch them!

tepid perhaps? :-)

@Crazy Anglican: Well, who here is normal anyway? But there's nothing wrong with doing normal things every once in a while. Sometimes it's fun. :-)

@Draug

Unfortunately, I couldn't find a copy of the extended edition : /

Absolutely. There are several normal things that I enjoy. Many normal things just suck though.

Oh geez, go buy them on Amazon for the next time around. Anything less is just uncivilized, Kat.

grrr.. Abgemacht, not Kat. Sorry.

I agree, but it was a spur of the moment thing and I had no time for shipping.

Well, man, go get them for *next time* (you know there will be a next time).

heh Not sure I need *two* copies of LotR.

Take the old theatrical set to a used CD/DVD store and sell it.

I'm not sure what normal is, but I'm pretty sure it doesn't envolve posting what I had for breakfast on an internet forum full of people I wouldn't recognise if I was in the same supermarket queue. Come to think of it I've only ever asked questions like those our dear krellin suggested to distant relatives that I don't like very much. Let's face it, the health of another man's dog is really really dull news.

Normal people find the unusual interesting. Bring back the philosophical bullshit :D!

Screw normality, it sucks.

Okay I will let you all know what I do normally.

Last weekend I drove to Austin to see my girlfriend. We went to a lot of Mexican restaurants we'd never been to and had plenty of sex. I discovered I need to use bigger condoms. The normal sized ones cut off circulation for me. I went to Barton Springs with her and her friend and a friend of mine. Barton Springs is a giant pool that's about 65 degrees F even in the heat of the summer. It was fun.

Then we went to an Austin Film Society screening of "The Trial" directed by Orson Welles... it was... interesting. Afterward we ate dinner at Chuy's, a little Tex-Mex place. And after that we went back to her friends apartment where she and I were staying, played some cards, she smoked a bit of weed, and then we went out to watch Inception, which was also very good.

The next day we got up at like 11 and went to eat Einstein Bagels. Then we drove around Austin, went to a local bookstore and bought "The Diaries of Adam and Eve" by Twain. After we went to a local cofffee shop by Lake Austin and sat outside eating a tart. We drove around some more seeing local Austin sights until it was getting to be dinner time, so we drove up to Lake Travis to have dinner at the Oasis, which is a restaurant that sits on top of a cliff face westward overlooking the lake. We saw the sunset and had really good food. Oh and a normal bit: I thought we were going to run out of gas on the clifftop roads but we made it to a gas station just in time.

Next day we just chilled and went to Barton Springs again... and had a lot of sex. I left the next morning and she got on a flight back to Ohio.

So I drove back to Houston just in time to show up for my cashier job at Walmart. Yes. That's my job. While there she called me saying she left her wallet in my car with her ID and everything. So I got off work at 11 and went to sleep but the next day (yesterday) I overnighted it to her. And I worked yesterday too.

So that's not exactly what I do every day but it's what I did the last few days.

Now you know my life.

@Thucydides: Sounds like lots of fun. :-) That just proves my point about normal sometimes being fun.

yeah it was pretty much the most fun i've had this summer.

As for my normal life I guess it goes like this:

This summer I work as a cashier at Walmart, which needs no introduction. When I'm not doing that I'm on here or writing for fun or reading the news.

During the schoolyear I study my ass off, drink sometimes, cook, and still read the news and come on here. Lol.

@ octavious: yeah well, you know, that just, like, your opinion, man...

everybody is fucked up in their own special way.

@Thucy - you really shouldn't call your girlfriend a tart and eating her in public, well... That could get you arrested for public lewdness/indecency.

:-)

@Draug: In real English tart is a synonym for "loose woman" so I was picturing Thucydides in a threesome.

@Thucydides: if the condom is cutting off circulation you are wearing it wrong, don't put over your head, put it on your penis!

Yeah, we use tart over here (or maybe it's just my habitual watching of BBC America) which is why I said that. But, yeah, rereading it they may have been sharing the tart. How much did she cost? And did you get a citation, Thucy?

@ Thucy: too much information...

I bought a vacuum cleaner today, and I just finished doing the dishes.

This is starting to sound like a Twitter account... :o

I saw a video on this interweb thingie the other day of a woman and her vacuum cleaner... Let's just say suction works for women too.

lol nice yall. but the tart was much tastier than my girlfriend, no hate on her though.

and believe me.... it is cutting off circulation lol. magnums are better but i think i will now have to order off the internet... just to try anyway. if that still doesnt work its back to the drawing board.

can i just say.. thank god for birth control
