It looks like Pomeroy is playing in the District tonight. I wish I could see them but it would be alone and I'm going home tonight.
Just thought of you Diane, when I saw their name on the pamphlet.
Everyone says this block party is the one that sucks anyways. Pssh.... Maybe another time!

Baseball game
Rachelowe-
I think it's safe to say I'm going to the game with you. YAY! It's getting close and I haven't heard from April, even tho I've emailed her twice- so she'll have to come down for Fright Fest.
I hope you're feeling better so we can have that drink- don't worry, I don't wanna get drunk. But the place is your choice- (preferably in Alton) wherever u want to go. Just decide and let me know when I call you up on my way home from el tractor pull tomorrow night. Hell, if you want, you can go to the tractor pull. If you like that sort of thing (I can't stand the noise but it's still kinda fun).
Feel better for god's sake! I'ma coming home!! It's 3:15 and the excitement is building. I am just not motivated to do a damn thing.

I love Post...
Do you really just love post? Or are you pointing at things and saying you love them?
I love post.
Right now, I am between stories. Today is a slow day and I don't expect to pick anything up until next week, but I might look into which casino around here is the most popular with younger people. And whatnot. I donno. With two weeks to go, it feels really wierd to start something if I may not get a chance to finish it. What are ya gonna do?
Ashley just called. She is going to be in the St. Louis area, so I might see her this weekend, who knows? Also, Eric and Caleb are partying at Caleb's house, and I might have to visit them, then I wanna have a drink with Rachelowe for her birthday with anyone who wants to come, then I'm going to the tractor pull with my dad, and spaghetti at Grandma's. It's starting to look like one helluva busy weekend, and it starts tonight! Excited!
Hmmmmmmmm. I just went down to the Rock On Rock Island block party in the District, which is really close to work, and I had me a chili dog and a lemonade. At least something is summery around here. I got my first front page article not long ago, about lawns, gardens and shrubs in the Qc dying. They've passed their dormancy stages and they are dead. It never rains here! Look on the weather map- all over IL is covered with rain and scattered T-storms. But not the good old Quad Cities. Look's like God has something against this place. And their crops. My dad is always calling me and telling me that it is raining it seems like, even if it's only been 3 or so times. I hope I dont have to drive into it on my way home. Eek!
Ahh, this lemonade is fabulous. Maybe if its not raining this weekend I can go swimming at Aunt Becky's between spaghetti and tractor pullin'. I've been using this neutrogena daily moisturizer that is a light sunless tanner and I have a wicked tan line on my foot where the lotion doesn't go. And if you're not careful, orangey looking kneecaps is what you'll end up with. But I have not had a chance to get outside and tan, I don't want to spend money I don't have to tan here (maybe up in Chucktown for awhile)... and I have really pale legs where u can see all my veins haha. It's just a little bit of pigment to cover that and make me less self conscious, that's all.
Time to go. Lala dumdeedum I'm bored.

Fuel Injector Woes
So 3 out of 6 of the Corsica's fuel infectors were shot. It's gonna cost about $130 each. So I'm still broke. The guy wanted to put new spark plugs in but that was a few hundred more, so daddy said no thanks- I don't think we're there quite yet.
Anyway the poor thing wasn't getting enough gas into the engine when accelerating or going uphill. So it'll be fixed today, and hopefully it will have cured the problem. The head mechanic drove it and felt it and that's what he said it most likely was. I guess there's no guarantees but daddy's going to get it fixed either way.
Rachelowe I sent my friend April an e-mail and told her I'll most likely go to Fright Fest so maybe she would want to wait until then, but I still haven't heard back. I donno when I'd ever get a chance to be that close! Do I owe u anything?

My Corsica
is acting up. I took it 1000 different places and left work early to see what's wrong with it. Whenever I accelerate or go uphill, and sometimes when I'm driving at a steady pace, it stalls a bit. It doesn't completely die but it feels like the engine loses horsepower and then starts acting normal again.
So that I wouldn't get taken by auto shops in the area bc I don't know what I'm doing, my parents made an impromptu trip to the QC to pick her up, and leave me with the van. I'm at work early because they just left about 15 minutes ago. I hope they make it home, but either it better be fixed, or it better stall once on the way home so dad can feel what its like and get it fixed. I'ma coming home to get 'er this weekend, as planned. But I hate the van, and am no longer looking forward to driving 4 hours without a cd player. What will I DO TO STAY AWAKE!?!
That's news for now, stay tuned for updates.

My ADVISER told me to chill out
With all the time on my hands, I always seem to find something to freak out about. Weeks ago, it was graduating on time.I wrote my adviser, who is the journalism dept. chair, a 1500-word e-mail about it. He wrote back:
Very nice, reassuring. Something to bring a smile to my face right before bed.
This place reminds me everyday that I wish it was Halloween. Feels like fall, save for the heat of course- but everything is so dry, the leaves are falling off the trees. My dad told me it poured like a bitch last night. It did not rain one fraction of an inch here. I felt sprinkles as I walked to my car this morning, so maybe it will hit us today. Hopefully not before I get out to the Mercer County Fair and grab me a carnie or two to interview. Haha.
Not much new, off to work.
Laura, don't panic. I checked your file again and you're still good to go.

Rachel's no longer a minor!
Happy B-day Rachelowe! I am hoping you will not read this at least for 2 more hours. Cuz technically right now u are, in fact, 20.
Diane that is really wierd.
Maybe you can see the future or something, wouldn't that be a nasty case of deja vu for the both of you if that actually happens now?
I have an obsession with the following song so I thought I'd share before I go to bed and try to catch up on the sleep I missed last night.
Caring is Creepy- The Shins
Love that song. The Garden State Soundtrack is dominating my mind and mood.

Caring is Creepy- The Shins
I think I'll go home and mull this over
Before I cram it down my throat
At long last it's crashed, the colossal mass
Has broken up into bits in my moat.
Lift the mattress off the floor
Walk the cramps off
Go meander in the cold
Hail to your dark skin
Hiding the fact you're dead again
Underneath the power lines seeking shade
Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
It's a luscious mix of words and tricks
That let us bet when you know we should fold
On rocks I dreamt of where we'd stepped
And the whole mess of roads we're now on.
Hold your glass up, hold it in
Never betray the way you've always known it is.
One day I'll be wondering how
I got so old just wondering how
I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
This is way beyond my remote concern
Of being condescending
All these squawking birds won't quit.
Building nothing, laying bricks.
Love that song. The Garden State Soundtrack is dominating my mind and mood.
This is soooo weird!!!
Ok so I woke up this morning with an okward feeling. I had a dream about Caleb. So I get online put up an away messge that says "thats strange." Then fall back asleep. When I wake up I have two messages one from AndyG and Caleb both saying they had dreams about me. So I instantly IM Caleb back b/c we both had dreams about each other. Its crazy!!! Caleb and I had the same dream!!! In both of our dreams I was crying and hugging him, but we can't remember what I was crying about. I've always wonder if its possible when you dream about someone if that person is having the same dream and now I have proof. Its totally freaky but way cool at the same time. Now we just have to figure out what I was crying about.
My damn lunchbox is missing
I don't know where it went! I'm going to do some serious room cleaning tonight because it has to be in my room or in the newsroom, and from what I can see it's not in here. It makes me freak out because for a stupid reason I'm sure that pack makes me feel safer at work because my mommy uses it at home. Therefore also I can't lose it, but I can't imagine where it would have gone besides my car- where it also isn't.
Anyways, 3 more weeks. actually it's 18 days. sounds delightful eh? I'm coming home this weekend but I won't get to see anybody unless we all go on that Budweiser tour. Besides that, if I can't go then whoever else isn't going I can see- but most probably it will be a family weekend. I'll get home late friday and want to relax- then sat at 6:30 my dad wants me to go to the Jersey County TRACTOR PULL Yee Haw! Then I have to leave Sunday afternoon to get here before dark.
After THAT weekend, which will go by quickly, I will have 11 days including one weekend where hopefully I'll finally get to see some Swing baseball (a Cards minor league team here) which I will even if I have to do it alone... and then the next weekend the parents are coming to get me. The countdown is getting more and more exciting. I'm just lonely and a little out of place here, and it only seems to be getting worse instead of better. Ahh hang in there....

So sweet and true!
You might be best friends one year, pretty good friends the next year, don't talk that often the next year, and don't want to talk at all the year after that. So, I just wanted to say, you are special to me and you have made a difference in my life, I look up to you, respect you, and truly cherish you.
Whoa pictures!
This is awesome! I didn't realize you could post pics. I remeber we tried a long time ago.
Hey Diane I tried to do that cool thing u do with picture but this is all I can do. It's pretty cool if u ask me tho.
Alright, gtg. BYe!
You love me...smile!
Hey y'all I was just seeing if this works. This will totally make our blog waayyy more interesting!!! xoxo

Now for Rachelowe.
Thomas, that was weird- we posted like two minutes apart. I was confused when I saw your post I wondered where mine went hehe.
Anyways Rachel, don't worry so much. I got your text message but not til this monring. Hey if your birthday wasn't on a Tuesday I woulda made plans with ya. You're one of the most common ppl I hang out with at home. I don't really enjoy going to get drunk very often but I woulda for your special occassion.
Don't feel so bad! You have plenty of friends who love you, and u know everyone in existance! Guess what I did on my 21st birthday? Since all my friends at school except the DEN were under 21? I met my old roommate Ashley at a bar, after she was already wasted. She, in turn, threw up and proceeded to leave me with her creepy and bisexual roommate I didn't know who was trying to get with some dudes the whole time. So there I was, waiting for some DEN ppl I knew from work but never really hung out with, by myself, at a bar I'd never been to, surrounded by drunk ppl who didn't know I existed. Later, Aaron, Woike, Jenni and Hillary showed up and things got a lot better, but by then the moment had passed and I was just mellowed out for the night, ready for bed. We went to Jenni's after the bar closed (on a Wed. mind you) to drink more, where I proceeded to feel tired, then suddenly kinda sick from all the hard alcohol, skipping the fun drunk part. When I went home I ate crackers and drank some Pepto and went to sleep. All in all it was ok, but obviously nothing fun to remember and/or spectacular. Ur b-day will surely beat that.
Happy B-Day (early) Rachelowe. I'll call you when you're no longer underage ;)

The Guinness Diet Blog
Holy shit blogs are in the news today. This dude drank Guinness for a week straight, 4 to 10 pints a day. The only other thing he consumed was a pint of milk and a vitamin c supplement. Talk about a beer binge.

Again, same blog we use. More later as I finish stories and finish reading the news.

Murderer's blog
Isn't it amazing and excrutiatingly frightening that someone could use blogger, the very same blog we use to keep up with one another's thoughts, lives, and to do stupid surveys, to write down his thoughts about killing? I read this in the newspaper this morning and I decided to search it. I found his blog site.
http://fifthnail.blogspot.com/
It belongs to sex offender Joesph Duncan III. He kidnapped a family along with their friend recently, and although they found the little girl, Shasta Groene, in a restaurant with him, and recovered her, the others are believed to be dead. Google his name and see what you get.
Anyways, sorry to post such depressing news. But it is interesting to me.

Copy and paste job.
Guys this is from my xanga but I didn't want to take the time to edit it so just ignore the parts you know, thanks
So, what is up?
I'm experiencing a busy week, and I love the rush compared to the regular, wait for a story, do the story, go home. I'm actually waiting on phone calls from several people presently, so I decided to post.
This is going by so fast. Soon it will be over. Soon as in.... oh, 21 days. I'm just working to get some great clips right now. I don't have anything spectacular but a few I can say I'm proud of, and 3 more weeks of chances to go.
This weekend I'm going to be here alone, and I'm going to take the opportunity to go see a play called Oedipus at Colona. Funny, I think there's a Colona around here as well, although the one in the play is obviously not in Illinois. I really liked classical mythology at SIUE, and in high school. It's one of my wierd interests that not a lot of people share. Oedipus is one of my favorite myths, because of the whole story having to do with a designed fate, and the connection with Freud's human complex theories, such as the Oedipus and Jocasta complexes.
I saw a CSI episode one night about the Jocasta complex that blew my mind. For those of you that don't know, Jocasta was Oedipus's mom, and also his wife. In the episode, a homosexual patient at a mental hospital was killed. As the story unraveled and intimate details of the victim and the murderer spilled out, we find out that the a fellow patient at the hospital is severely messed up because of the way he was raised. When his father died, his mother used him as a replacement husband, and had sex with him and all that. It drove him crazy, and several suicide attempts put him in the hospital. His mother kept sending him love letters, but the nurses stopped them, because everytime he would get one, he would go into a psychotic fit. Once she was cut off, his mother changed her name and got a job at the hospital to be closer to him. (Apparently, he wasn't the only one mentally off.) When he saw her, the suicide attempts began again, but he never told anyone about her, I guess he was afraid.
To separate himself sexually from his mother, he had sex with the homosexual character who was later murdered. By his mom, because she was jealous.
Even though he hated his mom and was repulsed by her, she was still his mother, so he tried to cover up her deed and confessed to the police. But they found her guilty because those TV CSIs sure are slick ;)
Moral of the story, that was a creepy episode. But great.
I forgot where I was going I got so into that story. Oh yes. Plays, and things I like to do but no one else will do them with me. My old roommate Kate (SIUE, Cougar Village) was a theater major/dance minor. I've always been interested in the stuff, so I went to go see her a lot. I remember this one play, it was hilarious! It was called, and excuse the spelling Bobrauschenbergamerica, all one word just like that. It was all over the place and extremely entertaining. The night I saw it I could have described it better- here's from the other blog:
"She put on a 50's bikini, with her platinum blond wig, danced around pouring fake vodka all over a big black tarp.... she put on the finishing touch- the olive, and then proceeded to use the giant martini as a slip 'n' slide."
The bikini was flippin tan and the scene was HILARIOUS. I kinda miss Kate I wonder if she graduated and ended up in South Carolina. Or better yet- is she still with Alex? hmm...
