well wednesday my family smushed into a car and drove up to woodstock VA for a day to see my dad’s best friend wayne who i have always called ‘uncle wayne’. i had a really great time which is rare for me these days as i’ve been rather depressed about crap.

anyway, our drive up to woodstock was pretty uneventful, we got lunch and once we got into the more northern part of VA we finally reached a 7eleven

and i got a slurpee…

oh god it has been so long since i have had one of those.. it was bliss! total bliss! we then finally made it to woodstock and stopped to call wayne, who happened to be right down the road from the gasstation we stopped at, so he escorted us to his house.

i hadn’t seen wayne since my highschool graduation in 2001 so i was very happy to see him again and accepted my bearhug with open arms. after having my internal organs crushed into jello we sat and chatted for a while on his back porch

while listening to kpig (a radio station in california) and watching his 2 awesome parrotts cookie and elvis climb around the cage.

i also got to meet frankie, wayne’s son, who the last time i saw, was a small baby. he’s 10 now and is already almost as tall as his dad (his dad is over 7ft tall!)

sadly our trip turned sad when someone called wayne to tell him that an old friend of his killed himself and was just found… it was pretty heart breaking and the rest of our time there was spent hugging wayne and wishing him well… we then departed and made the trip back home.

i hope that we can go again soon, i really like it up there.

i don’t have much else to blog about, still looking for a job, money is running thin, but thankfully my parents are being understanding now. but i hope that i can get a job because i really want to be out from under their thumb.

for now i think i am going to do some maintanance on this blog pretty soon and try to spruce it up a bit.

with some bribery i was able to talk my parents into giving me the tiny bedroom. i can bearly fit my stuff in it but at least it is a place to sleep where i can have a door and a bed.

we had some trouble with the wireless connection. took us 3 routers to get the damn thing figured out, then after i thought it was all good it turns out my dad’s pacemaker was interfering with the signal! so i switched router channels and now the thing works properly as it should. i hate wireless though as it is annoying and gets pissy when it storms but it is better than nothing so i’m dealing with it lol

still trying to get stuff together. job applications are out there, just waiting for a call back. still unpacking cause i’m lazy… once i unpacked the computer stuff i just left the rest of the boxes stacked up on eachother lol… need to finish unpacking them *shakes fist*

i’m thinking of making a new wordpress theme, and trying to make it more wp 2.0 because this design is based on my 1.5 blog and i’m sure it’s got some junk that is no longer compatible.

i’ve also been working on my 3d art alot lately, and have started thinking about submitting it for sale as prints and what not… that’ll happen after i have a pay pal account, which of course will happen after i get a job.

so that’s all. just wanted to write so people knew i was still alive…
