The Update for Everybody Else

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I plan on going to some golf courses tomorrow to look for work, and then to the Publix Plant the day after. The manager of that plant lives nearly two hours away in the same town that my Aunt and Uncle live in and goes to church. Strange coincidence that I meet him up there and that he works just up the street from where I live.

I got a Brother Electrix AX-22 typewriter this week for free from my uncle....and I left my books in his truck, and he leaves at 2:00 AM to drive across state. So I will have to get them later. I need one of them for school .

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Sorry for your loss, Andrew. I have been keeping your friends family in my thoughts and prayers.

I'm getting hammered with my last forty ounce Olde English bottle. I got two yesterday. I'm not really into drinking but I have a lot of time to kill by myself these last two days.

Edit: Screaming "Like a Rolling Stone" and "All along the Watchtower" at the top of your lungs and then relaxing to Beethovans "Piano Concerto #5 in E flat major OP. 73 "Emperor" is the most awesome thing you can do.

I had major dental work down. My four front teeth have been filed down and replaced. I took a four hour nap afterwards.

I was the victim of a HORRIBLE prank Saturday night. My brothers asshole friend decided to pull up a fake porn site invented by 4chan. Before I could stop him, he searched “Lolita” which I knew was a tern bound to pull up illegal content. Sure enough, a warning came up saying my IP was logged and that the FBI would be notified. Not knowing what to do, I panicked, went into IRC chat to explain the situation (hoping that a government agent would be watching the conversation) and spent all Sunday waiting nervously for the police to raid my house. Nothing happened, and I later found out that this was not a real website. I was and am furious; I almost had a complete breakdown to the point that among the many, many options I was considering was voluntarily committing myself to a psychiatric hospital to preempt the police, who were obviously NOT looking for me.

I recently got an AX-22 brother electric typewriter; about two weeks ago, I got new ribbon for it. Than the Daisy Wheel fell apart as I typed with it….so after weeks of looking, I discovered that a local office supply store in West Palm Beach that has been in business since 1922 carries them. So I got $40 from the bank, and was dropped off at the train station. The train was 45 minutes late, and once I got on board, it took another 30 minutes because they were changing crews. Finally, the short train ride to WPB gets underway. I walked about two miles into downtown WPB in the 91 degree heat, still paranoid about the previous days prank, and got to the store….and it was closed-apparently it randomly moved to Lake Worth without mentioning ANYTHING on its website. So I ate at Jimmy Johns, and walked to the train station, noticing that this homeless man who I first saw at the Boynton Station started appearing everywhere I went. I assumed I was being followed and zig-zagged my way across town to shake him. I eventually did. I got on the train, got back home to Boynton, and walked another two miles to my house.

Safe to say that this has been the worst part of the worst summer of my life, and that I cannot wait for 2013 to end. 2013 began to suck in November 2012.

Is it wrong that I laughed at this?

If it happened to somebody else, I would have laughed, so I have no hard feelings. I see a shrink about once a month to discuss things, and this dominated the conversation. I'm feeling the physical effects of the stress it caused, but otherwise I am alright.

I go back to school on Wednesday, which sounds great. This has been a terrible summer. The good news is that I have my driving test scheduled for August 21st, and on August 30th-August 31st, I am going to attend the Americans for Prosperity conference in Orlando. I am planning on meeting Ted Cruz, Ron Johnson, Marco Rubio (again), T-Paw (again), and Bobby Jindal. Annoying d-bags like David Horowitz, Michelle Malkin, and Greg Gutfield will also be trolling the conference. None the less, I hope to attend some nice panel discussions that will be aired on C-SPAN, get some cool pictures, shake some hands and maybe reconnect with some political friends. My aunt and uncle live in Vero, which is about an hour and a half east of Orlando, so I will just stay at their house or something like that.

I failed my drivers license test. I did ok, but forgot to use blinkers on the track and came just a tad to close to a traffic cone. I will try again tomorrow afternoon if the DMV is not a nightmare, but I have a scheduled appointment to try again on Tuesday anyway. I still am planning on going to the American's for Prosperity Summit in Orlando come hell or high water.

I'm driving down from Charlotte to New Orleans on Thursday.

Down south in New Orleans! (Shame that was cut from the film, it was much better than watching Joni Mitchell sing about a coyote.)

I found out the girl I had been seeing cheated on me with a guy who moved her stuff back in town, so I lashed out at her, stupidly, and we have now blocked all communication. I actually feel liberated

Sorry to hear that. She was the one who disappeared with your phone and ID, right?

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Got my drivers license today. I failed the test again, but the DMV lady let it slip. So I am now able to drive solo.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I went to the Americans for Prosperity Defending the Dream summit in Orlando. Met David Horowitz and didn't realize it too later. Walked past Michelle Malkin, didn't care. Saw Ted Cruz give an amazing speech and mingled with some young grassroots activists.

Already raged about this on Facebook, but someone who I thought was one of my "best friends" unfriended me and every other guy from her FB page because her boyfriend told her to.

Nothing in my life is normal anymore.

I personally feel that if I am in a relationship that is serious, I should have no close female friends and my partner should have no close male friends, unless they were "best friends" for a long time before the relationship, which I presume was what happened to you. While I see the general point, her unfriending of you and literally every guy on Facebook is just irrational.

This makes me glad that you being in a relationship will remain purely hypothetical for a long, long time.

I would think a transvestite would be more tolerant of other people’s religious opinions in the same way they would want people to tolerate their lifestyle, which I do. My religion teaches about the concept of original sin, which you and I both have. Temptation is easy to come by, and I have at one point or another thought about more than just friendship with my female friends. That was a rather bigoted attack you leveled on me there, but whatevs Dawg (TM Cathcon).

Yeah, this girl in particular was someone I had known for over three years.  I feel kind of hurt knowing that I wasn't good enough for her to tell her over-jealous boyfriend off, but I'm not going to lose sleep over something I'm not at fault for.  She's a lot younger than me, though, so hopefully she'll realize someday what a terrible mistake she's made.

Sad situation. I obviously don't know this girl or her boyfriend, but I am assuming that they are not in a very serious relationship that is fairly new. If that is the case, then the girl will hopefully realize that her new boyfriend is frighteningly controlling and insecure, and it could be only a matter of time before it all comes apart. Of course, all of that is just based on the way I pictured it playing out in my head, and is purely just a assumption on my part. Anyway, I hope that things will resolve themselves for you and your friend, Scott.

I'm starting to come to terms with the fact that my life peaked between 1 AM September 7th-1 AM September 8th, 2013. It's been a bit painful accepting that, but I'm now prepared to face the rest of my bleak life.

Swipe the V-card??

Made my college plans. I am going to a state college in Tallahassee for two years before transfering into FSU. Goal is to get my foot wet in the world of Florida GOP intraparty politics. The first two years at the state college will be at a campus adjacent to FSU, so I am not missing out on the entire "college experience."

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Friend of mine called Scott a "false prophet" and accused him of destroying Christianity on Facebook.

You dragged me into it now, thanks to this post .

I have been getting into black gospel music as of late. Don't quite know why.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

Caught in a "love" conundrum yet again

Ugh

dish dish dish

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

My mom now thinks I am into black women because I revealed to her that I am into black gospel music . Nothing wrong with liking women on an opposite race, but my mom is the type who will make a giant joke out of boring things and annoy one to death on it.

Looks like I may be taking some community college classes on Monday and Wednesday evenings in Montpelier, Macroeconomics and Spanish are the classes I am considering. Kind of excited actually.

Is that for your school? Or are you doing it on your own? I might want to take some courses at Palm Beach Atlantic but I have no idea how to sign up or if I even can.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I did some things that I should not have done. I tried to go on the IRC and talk about it but I zoned out. I am not the type who enjoys altering my mind, and this was not all that great, but I won't call it a bad experience.

A former classmate of mine with a well known affinity for pot ran over and might have killed a person in the neighboring town. My brother saw the scene of the accident seconds after it happened. Scary sh*t.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

My brother just had a gun pulled on him while walking the dog. He was in the local park and a man who was walking his Tsitzu (did I spell that right?) without a leash passed. His dog and our dog got into it, and my brother told him to pick the dog up while he struggled to hold our dog back. Instead, the man pulled a gun and pressed it to my dogs head, saying he was gonna shoot it. My brother and dog are ok, and cops are here right now. Crazy sh*t. This entire weekend has been packed with all kinds of stuff.

[Atlas Has Shrugged]

I'm straight edge as f[inks]

Also Max, i hate to say it like this but

Your life is a perfect example of why I will never live in Florida

Yeah, this city is in the midst of a crime wave, so no offense taken. The cops came, and criticized my brother for walking at 7:30 in the evening, in the f[inks]ing twilight. Seven cop cars showed up at our house, and they refused to even look for the guy (they just assumed he had a concealed carry permit) and left. Yes, the man has a right to his gun, and yes, he has a right to pull it out if he feels threatened. But does he have a right to pull it on another human being when his f[inks]ing dog is threatened??
