Down With Brickianity

Transitioning sucks. Jeff and I were told we had 24 hours to be completely moved out of our apartment the other day. So, we sucked it up and worked super hard to get everything out, vaccuum, try to remove the lyrics we wrote on the walls, you know the usual. Unfortunately, we didn't have room for a lot of stuff, and had to throw alot away. One of those, being my bed.
Oh gosh, I love my bed. An old, rickety bed that takes about 25 seconds to assemble. And now, it's gone. We gave our couches, the bed, our table, computer desk, two reclining chairs, and probably other things to our neighbors, who were very appreciative. So appreciative, in fact, that one of them gave me some pot.
Yup.
He went to "shake my hand", and put something in my palm, then walked away. I opened my hand, and there it was.
A little ball of pot.
Jeff and I left it on the coffee table and laughed about it, and we think our cat ate it
----I now digress to clarify two points----
1) Jeff and I had NO intention of smoking it. We laughed about it, set it down, forgot about it, and it's gone
2) No, the pot did not affect our kitten, as it has to be heated to release the THC that gets you "high". So animal lovers, our neglect did not loose the morals of our pseudo-offspring.

And so now, Jeff and I are crashing at Stacey's, with all of our crap in her living room. There is scarce room to even move around. So, Jeff and I just play Xbox all day long while she is at work. It sounds great, but after a summer of round the clock activities, I think I am going out of my mind having nothing to do until my move.
When I can get a job, and start an income.
And get Wamu to stop harassing me.
And buy a new bed.
Velvet Elvis is amazing.
Later everyone.

Welcome Home

Ok, it's 3:30 am and I've been driving all day, and thus have no idea what I am going to write about. What I do know is this...the new Coheed and Cambria album "IV" sounds incredible, there is a new song on both Myspace or at coheedandcambria.com, called "Welcome Home". Check it out. I would put the link up, but it appears Blogger is having problems with its html right now; I can't even italicize! Oh well, the new video premiers August 12. *chills run down spine*
Anyways.
Camp is over. It really flew by, and I gotta say it's a big change being back down the mountain in the "real world". This Sunday I won't be reporting back to camp, scanning the cabin lists (of which I was never assigned a ridge nor tent frame...yes...), and waiting for the new shipment of campers on Monday morning as we all sit and sweat together at the picnic tables waiting for our names to be called. I'm fairly sure that was a run on sentence, but you get the point.
I came to camp only knowing Jeff and Stacey, and came away with a lot more.
Alot of friends were made, alot of things were learned, and alot of ice cream sandwiches were handed out in Heaven. I am apologizing in advance to whoever happens to read my upcoming posts, because I'm sure for the next little while I will have nothing else to talk about other than random memories of the past summer. For now, I am going to get some sleep...in my own bed.
