rock over London. rock on, Chicago.

I’m watching live videos of Fu Manchu on youtube. fucking stoners.
but more importantly, I’m jacking it to Santorum.
and now you know where I’m at.

bought a bed today.
there’s a small furniture store about two blocks from here, next to the laundromat. I paid about $150 for a box spring and full-size mattress. I don’t know if that’s good, but it’s a lot cheaper than everywhere else I’ve looked. I bargain shopped at the expense of my back. so I’m happy.
beyond that, not much else. I’m going to see the midnight showing of “Saw III” tomorrow night with some dudes from work. it’s going to suck, but I haven’t seen a movie in a while. and I’d imagine I’ll get in free. maybe we can see “Marie Antoinette” instead. yeah, that’ll go over well with the guys.
work sucks sometimes. I know it’s the first job out of the gate, and there’s the possibility that I’m actually just missing the things I’m supposed to be doing, but if you aren’t given a section to prepare, you have nothing, at all, to do.
nothing. at all.
I was supposed to have two wire pages to build today. boss turns to me and says, “you know what? don’t worry about it, I’ll get one.”
uhh…
after intentionally taking my time I was done with my single wire page in half an hour. that left me with about five hours to go with my dick in my hands. and there’s only so much you can view on the internet at work that’s work appropriate.
like this. couldn’t look at this at work.

I feel like doing that after I read things like U.S. congressmen calling for CNN’s banishment for airing a video of marines dying in Iraq.

“Does CNN want America to win this thing?” Hunter asked yesterday on the network. In past wars, he said, the media was more pro-American.
“You can’t be on both sides of the war,” (he) said.

that’s what people fail to understand: the media isn’t fucking supposed to take sides, you nimrods. it’s the media, not anyone’s pulpit! everyone, in my opinion, should look and sound like Jim Lehrer: cold, dry and dead, but speaking a stream of facts… and not on anybody’s side.
“and that’s the news.” christ, the rest of network news is basically cartoons. all sorts of scrolling headlines and flags waving and prescription drug commercials. and the live shots, jesus. I don’t know how Mike puts up with it. I want to murder some of those correspondents with a hammer.

speaking of hammered, midterm elections are in two weeks. that tuesday, I’m soaking myself in alcohol and getting drunk on the fumes. and watching CNN, cause I’m obviously for the terrorists. whoever the fuck they are.
