TO MOLLIFY LINGJACKSON OVERDRIVEBERT WHO IS THE SQUEAKY DESERT FIEND, POST ON THIS THREAD AND ONE OF YOUR FRIENDLY ITR MODS WILL TELL YOU THAT YOU ARE WICKED AWESOME, AND POSSIBLY OFFER AN EFFUSIVE ST

if the evening depresso would let me go to bed on time, i wouldn't mind it. but i also get out of class at 9:30 and usally get home around 10-10:15, so then i am UP FOREVER either doing hw or winding down, but stewing about it.

tehresa, plz come study with me; we will accomplish nothing, probably, but it would be fun.

xpost I'm ready for the steambath if that's what it takes to get clear roads and fingers and toes that aren't ice cold 24-7. BRING IT ON

last night I was pretty sure I was tired but then I had an idea for a bass synth that I wanted to build in Live which wound up turning itself into a full-blown loop so I went to bed at 4 am again

I have no idea how you're even functioning, Tom. Wow.

sara i <3 study dates - sometimes they are more effective than when left to my own devices (i tend to get distracted easily by things like, oh, say, the internets). favorite ever was last semester when my friend and i went through 2 bottles of wine and then moved on to the bar near her house while studying for 2 of our finals: we both got As on both of them!

the white people tacos thread is now more irritating to me than the primaries thread. jesus christ I hate me some faux-worldly urbanites raving about how great their <$5 lunch junk of choice is

tonight should be pretty exciting for me since I get to fill up my new case logic binder with all the loose CDs left over from re-ripping project. I threw out all my digipak cases!! fuck you, ugly stuff that doesn't belong on a bookshelf!!

lol that thread is just making me crabby because i am now hungry! also chicago takeover wtf?!

Hi Tom!

Oh and Hi Tehresa!

tehresa, you have just raised the bar on all future study dates. JUST SO YOU KNOW

Tom, plz proceed to my house immediately and take all the extra crap off my bookshelves, THX

I'd so rather have people over and drink, study, or clean than go outside in freezing rain anymore...

i am so glad i have inspired you, src!

hi mark!

Hey Sara do you ever do messenger? I'm home alone (I still haven't really got over not sharing the house with a ladyfriend and I miss human company) and am whoring round my chat availability :)

Guys, I've decided I hate software. What should I do with my life?

Mark, I have yet to figure out messaging - but maybe you have motivated me to do it! Aren't there like, multiple message systems that you can use? I'm so clueless about this. Help me out here. I have a Mac and I now have a gmail account, if that makes a difference...?

I have to leave in soon for school due to the weather, but I promise to follow people's chat advice so that I can master yet more late 90's communications technology.

Dan, please come to nursing school so that I won't feel so all alone.

Or wait, you could join John and make a Strip Mall of Inequity (music store, porn shop, liquor store, bar... I'm sure other stuff could be added - use your imagination).

THIS IS A GOOD IDEA

dan help me start a really awesome interdisciplinary music/art/performance space!

semiserious inquiries have perhaps been made by people regarding the viability of building ownership and bar/store/art conglomeration in the twin cities what i know

going to class now. have a good night, guys!!

ok my last sentence is a good example of why i shouldn't type while a kid is asking me questions about wah pedals while his friend plays sepultura at earcrushing volume

liquor usually has to have it's own space in MN, but even just a wall seems like it works okay.

I look forward to shopping at John and Dan's Twin Cities Den of Inequity.

Hmmmm, maybe you'll need a nurse on hand to help people recover from their hangovers or whatever happens in your burlesque show.

Have fun at class, tehresa - I'm going off, too!

Stay warm and drive safe - everyone, but especially those in the T.C. area. Dammit, we should really be beyond this weather.

well, that will make my guitars/bar/guns/club/firing range/dirt bike track concept easier to get past the city council probably xpost

You forgot "carney midway".

CORRECT

Hey Sara, I know you've gone but I'm going to webmail you re messenger stuff - let me know if your webmail doesn't actually get to you! With a gmail account you basically have a chat function built in, and I'm sure a lot of the people you'd choose to chat to are gmail users to. Anyway, I'll email :)

OMG IT'S OFFICIAL I JUST BOOKED MY TICKETS FOR REALZ!

AND my mum has offered to pony up all her airpoints, not just for my connecting flight, but also my trip home to visit family AND the extra trip to auckland i have to make for the visa interview/orientation thingy. flight to US is still a fucking expensive $2511.50.

BUT YAY! OMG I'M REALLY GOING

hey john are you still doing the spoeknd words

this is wonderful news, ruby. congratulations

Rubes that's fab :)

yes RR come to our wonderful country and become another member of the El Tomboto salary fund team

yes i will spokend them this weekend i think mr tomboto

RR! Acers!

i'm not sure what this salary fund of tombot's is, but sure, i'll participate.

thanks for the good wishes, itr! i'm really quite awestruck that this is really happening - buying the ticket has really cemented everything and it just feels more real than it ever has (in a good way!).

rr I work for the govt

was oblique joke re: dire need of this country to increase tax base via immigration because we are by no means pumping out babies fast enough to pay down the war debt

"joke" used rather loosely here

of course! sorry, i totally didn't get it, but i'm completely distracted today.

now that i know i'm leaving for sure, i'm really tempted to be totally ass-y to anyone who gives me shit at my job.

I'm so happy for you RR. I know how sucky long distance international relationships can be. You're going to be so happy!

thanks, enbb :)

YAY RR, SO HAPPY THAT YOU ARE COMING TO THE U.S.!!!!

Mark, I will check my email when I get downstairs (after I eat something... STARVING NOW!)

I got home safe and alive, btw, so yay! Roads weren't toooo bad; visibility wasn't so great. I'm staying put tomorrow if this continues!

Congrats Rubes!

I will now watch a delicious Grey Gardens sandwich, with 30 Rock as the bread.

I fear the snow may have caused my satellite dish to get all wonky, and thus no 30 Rock was recorded. ;_;

Mark C - I didn't see an email from you, BUT my ISP is super crappy/unreliable lately. (Thus the planned slow transition to gmail).

Let me know if you need a more direct address than however ILX has this set up.

bumping this thread for continuity reasons

leaving one shitty job to head off to another bump

Hope it goes okay... or at least not too badly!

ruby, i am very happy for you<3<3<3

and i promise never to call you 'rubes'
