I still love how Xander saved the world. Go Xander!
But now it's four in the morning, season six is over, and I still haven't made that grocery list.

And boyfriend is officially moving in. Fuck my life.
At least I'll save on rent.

I remember once I had some really good friends. The best in the world even.
There were energy drinks and glowsticks and comic book store runs and sushi and it was fantastic. There was anime club meetings, and cosplay shenanigans, and Ann Arbor trips, and mysterious power outages. There was Jurassic Park, and creative writing classes, and talking cats, and overcrowding in the front seat of the car.
Stop moving, gaiz T_T

Apparently there's a guy that wanders around downtown Battle Creek that thinks he's Jesus. We were talking about him in my philosophy class. My professor talked to this guy a while ago and asked him why he would come to Battle Creek of all places. I guess the anti-christ owns a car dealership here. According to Jesus Guy he's got this whole plot to infiltrate Kelloggs, make some kind of mind controlling frosted flakes, and then use the federal center to distribute them. He went to Saint Phil, and apparently he was a genious, graduated early and everythig. Now he hangs out with a bunch of pot heads.
I guess there's also some lady that wanders around downtown carrying like ten umbrellas at once. When it's not raining or anything. Juse 'cause. And some guy that will just randomly stop everything he's doing and spin for a bit then keep going.
I think I should hang out downtown more often XDD

I need a major.
So I was thinking, lets say there was an alien race that communicated strictly through telepathy. They don't even have ears or mouths or any of that. How do they listen to music?
I can understand making music. It wouldn't be too much different from us, except it would be made with brain power! instead of instruments. How would they get the music out to people though?
Obviously, they would have to be able to pick and choose who their thoughts went to somehow. If everyone was just hearing everyone elses' thoughts all the time they'd all be bat shit insane, we've all seen the overused plot line where the main character gets telepathic abilities somehow and thinks it's awesome until they go LOONY (if not then pull out season three of Buffy and watch Earshot [that would be disc 5, not that I watch the show way too often or anything], actually do that anyways). How would it be possible for bands to reach as wide an audience as they do here if they were just beaming the music into specific peoples' brains? They couldn't just send the music to everyone ever. That's got to be illegal or something. Maybe there could be like a telepathy radio, like if you just tune into the right channel then you can hear it. That doesn't really sound right to me though. Could your brain work the same way a radio does? I don't know enough about the human brain or radio waves to even fathom a guess, but for the sake of the argument lets say an incredibly advanced society that's all ready capable of telepathic communication is able to somehow hard wire their brains to send and receive information radio style.
Now, if this were the case, I think you'd still need the thoughts to be there in order to hear them. I really doubt it would be possible for thoughts to float around in some kind of radio limbo until you feel like listening to them, so how would you listen music while the band isn't playing? There would have to be some way to store the thoughts, like a psychic ipod or something. This is going way too far into this whole telepathy radio theory than I can even begin to follow. (Actually, I don't even know why I'm writing this. I think the real question here is 'do I have a fucking point?').
So I guess my question, not that I expect anyone to answer it, is would there be a way to create musical though, reach a wide enough audience without thought spamming the entire race, and then store it for later listening? Would this have to be a society more advanced than us, actually lets say a warp capable society just for shits and giggles, or is all of this something we could do if we could just grasp the whole telepathy thing?
And what about pirating music? In order to do that you would have to hack into someone's thoughts. I'm certainly not against pirating in most cases, but how far can you go before this really does become a moral issue? Or in a telepathic society would thoughts be less sacred? Is it okay to hack into someone's thoughts if they're broadcasting them anyways?
Why the hell don't I have more important things to think about?

The two classes that I actually have to be on campus for started today (the rest of them are online). My philosophy professor seems really cool. Psych doesn't start for a few more hours, but I have the same professor I had for intro, so I all ready know he'll be amazing.
Kind of going crazy without internet at home, but that should be set up sometime next week. I'm going to be broke within hours of getting paid on Friday :/ Joy.
Mara has apparently set a wedding date. It's almost two years away, but still. Kids these days. She wants me to be a bride's maid. I'm still working on a nice way to say no.
The apartment is really nice. It gets kind of boring having nothing to do but watch dvds and harass Morgan's dog though. She's kind of turning me into a Supernatural fan. Kind of. It's a really good show, I was surprised. I'm not really getting into it too much, but I have to admit that it's good.
Idk, this seems like kind of a pointless entry. But good times, fo sho :]

I just talked to my friend Morgan about renting an apartment together. We'd have to sign the lease by the 31st, so kind of last minute. But there it is.
I'm mostly sure I can afford it. It'll probably be tight, but I can afford it. Especially if I can talk Amy into getting me some more hours.
This is actually perfect timing, because I can clear out my room and give it to my cousin. We're pretty sure he's homeless. Mom doesn't think he'll be able to live here at all because her brother would have to sign over custody of him to her. She seems to think he'd let his son live on the streets just to spite her. Which only marginally surprises me honestly. And even worse, she'd have to, GOD FORBID, talk to the man.
This poor kid. His father is a useless, spiteful dickbag, his mother is a coke addict, and the closest thing he has to an actual reliable parental figure "can't" do anything because she can't be bothered to talk to her own brother.
Fucking hell.
I'm probably going to end up calling him. I honestly can't imagine that he'd be such a pathetic, useless excuse for a human being that he'd let his son live on the street just to spite my mother. That's just too low. And if he is, then there *has* to be a way around it. I seriously doubt a judge would leave custody his hands when he won't even talk to the kid.
But yeah. Apartment. I might be getting one. Transportation may be an issue, but I can get real friendly with a buss pass. And someday I'll have a real car :D

I finally got my schedule for next semester all squared away. Algebra, Abnormal Psychology, Developmental Psychology, and Beginning Word. All night classes, four days a week. I was hoping to just do two days a week so I could get more hours at work, but I think going full time would be better if only for the health insurance through dad's work :/ I also decided not to take the science class I need for Northwestern, so I'll either be paying twice as much for it or putting off/giving up completely on transferring up there.
The more I think about the more I realize that I don't really want to work in culinary arts any more than anything else. I might as well just get an associates from KCC and go from there.
I don't know. Really I don't even care. I'd be perfectly happy to just stay at Best Buy.
I think I might blow my savings on a car. Or a motorcycle. I think I would be a bit more comfortable with a motorcycle. They're not so ...huge.

My laptop is on sale for less than half of what I paid for it ._.
I have two whole days off. I'm excited about this. :]
I keep feeling like I have a lot to say, but every time I sit down to write my mind just goes blank. I really hate it.
Idk.
The ex is kind of stalking me again. I don't think she called today unless it was while I was at work, but she's called the past two days. I was kind of an ass :/ I really don't want anything to do with her. She takes peoples' reactions to such ridiculous extremes. If I'm even a little nice to her then she wants to start planning the wedding, and if I give her even one snippy comment then obviously I want her to just go die. I don't know what to do with this stupid girl.
I think she mostly just needs someone to be there for her. I'd like to be her friend, but she's just not giving me that option. FML.

Yesterday was an exceptionally awesome day. I was in a good mood all day. My shift at work was pretty short and went by a lot faster than usual. And I got to talk to a cute girl for a while. It was even interesting conversation, not just me babbling like an idiot!
Today, however, has sucked ass. A good four or five hours before I'm normally even awake, and I'm all ready having a shitty day. Lovely.
I got no sleep last night. And by "no sleep" I don't mean "an hour or two" I mean no sleep. None. At all. Went to a meeting at 7 in the morning. Saw the aforementioned cute girl getting talked up by an obnoxious pretty boy. With stupid hair (The cute ones are always straight ]: ). And then waited over an hour for my ride.
Okay, so most of this is probably just the I'm-really-tired grumpies. That one guy really does have stupid hair though.
Idk, I'm still going to cling to the one pathetic strand of hope that she might be a little bendy. She likes horror movies. What kind of straight girl likes horror movies? I mean, come on.
Relay for Life is today. I think I'm going to head out there in a couple hours and see if that can brighten up my day a little :]

Today was a good day. I'm glad I didn't go into a coma yesterday like I wanted to :]
I really wish we had ice cream right now. I don't even like ice cream all that much. But I would love sit down with a huge gallon of ice cream and just eat until I go into a diabetic coma. A coma sounds lovely right now.
