so i'm sitting here in the library listening to david bowie, taking care of all of these things i've been trying to do for weeks. i'm slightly exhausted. i think its mostly from eating all that taco time, but i'm still digging the whole idea of consuming so much terrible awesomeness.
god, i love queen bitch from david bowie. this song is so fun to listen to...
what to mention...well, the party was indeed fun. i loved my birthday this year! its the best party i've ever had...by far!
i got the ultimate present that made my whole day...its always nice to think you knew everything about your present, and then you find out there was more to it then you expected! jeff, you got me so good! so good!! it made me delightfully happy. hopefully lunch was just as delightful for you too! i was looking forward to it in my ideas of what i really wanted to do with my day...
so, since i have the time, i guess i can talk about anything i want to. first off, my brain is NOT working today. at all. i think this whole time going forward bullshit has officially killed off my ability to think whatsoever...
but i am going to attempt to make a post on something i read today that i almost forgot about. okay. sure. lets do this.
supposedly the state of california has secretly issued an anti SUV sort of rule. in the process of trying to find this really awesome story (yeah i left the link at work, so i'm going around it at this point and basing it on about the 1.5% of the article i really remember), i found other links for anti suv material. this really doesn't have much to do with what i was looking at, but whatever. i'm not your book of knowledge! i am only a vessel of pain!!!

here's a fascinating earth liberation front story (for those have yet to hear about them...http://www.earthliberationfront.com/) http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/03/10/national/main605042.shtml
this is fascinating, since it covers both sides of the SUV argument...positive to negative feedback: http://www.suvsuck.org/feedback.htm
this is my current favorite for such fun lines as this: "What Would Jesus (Rivera) Drive?" According to the ad, Rivera drives an SUV because it gets him through the snow in winter, and his wife likes it because she can easily transport their grandchildren. "It's all about safety, utility and versatility. Maybe that's why they call them SUVs," the ad says. The pro-SUV group's president Jason Vines says the ad is part of SUVOA's membership drive.
OH, THAT SURE WON ME OVER! WE GET SO MUCH SNOW TO WORRY ABOUT!
i mean, geez...even though russia just barely passed the regulation of vehicles for EVERYONE finally without a waiting list (yes, originally you had to wait until you could get a car, much like an adoption process), and considering that they also don't have a roadway system that is capable of holding any sort of weight, my SUV will get me through all of the major potholes and muddy weather of sun valley! i can't get that taurus...no, no, no. i must have something that will be able to take my two kids and give them enough room to RIDE PONIES IN THE BACKSEAT
here are some examples of russian roadway issues.

dear jesus, thanks for the suv!!
anyways. in totally unrelated news.
i'm working on my resume. i don't know what i think about the draft that i have come up with, so i sent it off to my resume guru (my good bud jon out in portland). hopefully its up to speed. hopefully i stand a chance at greatness. i needed a day off. i really needed some time to recooperate my head from being busy with a billion things. i havn't been terrible busy, but just busy enough. i've been focused on a lot of family topics...and even though it shouldn't be keeping my mind and energy so focused, it has been. it does every so often...especially when it is based on things that i thought i had officially stated my opinion on with my family, but obviously not engrained within their hippocampus strongly enough...
ah, they are kicking me off this computer in 2 minutes, so alas, this is coming to an end.
farewell!
