i'm sorry, but mr. west is gone.

huzzah for winter. huzzah for snow. huzzah for never living in missouri again. that's right. i have arrived in western new york. i've been here since the 17th. now my goal is to trade this house for an apartment in the city. then i will be truly glad i am here. however, i did feel sad leaving springfield. i almost shed some tears. i was quite close when i said goodbye to kim, and then again when i said goodbye to zach. i was quite happy to leave park place north apartments, though. those assholes tried to tell me that they would take money out of our deposit to repaint and have someone clean the oven. so i threw the "that's against missouri state law" in their faces. if they keep a penny, zach and i are gonna jump their asses. better recognize.

i suppose i am now a college graduate, since i graduated college and all. according to my grades on-line, i had a 4.0 this semester. yeah. that's all a's with no a-minuses or b-pluses. i think that means i graduate magna cum laude. sweet action.

then i also saw iron & wine and calexico in st. louis. harry, jessie, and ashley came too. actually, harry drove, which was so awesome of him, and then we met james. after some really good thai pizza, it was off to mississippi nights. calexico was great and iron & wine was absolutely fantabulous. best overall concert of the year that i went to, hands down. it was all great except for the kid singing along with sam beam. the kid could not sing a note so, when i could hear him, it was like jabbing a cork-screw into my ears and turning it very slowly. i was about to say something to him, but he stopped. i was there to hear sam beam sing his songs, not some tone-deaf kid "singing" sam beam's songs. no one should sing out loud with the person/group on stage unless invited to by the artist. lip-synching is fine, but don't let any sound escape your mouth. or i'll bust a cap in you.

i now have a myspace site (www.myspace.com/urimandthummim) for my music. i'm gonna try to play around the wny area. hopefully it goes well. and thus, i leave you cause i need to wrap christmas presents. happy chrismahanakwanzika. salud.

Hey Ryan. I don't need the car adapter back. I had tapes in the car and that was good. I found some other adapters around the house.

By the way I have been listening to Antony and the Johnsons constantly. What a (wo)man! It is great. I want to tell him that yes you are a child, a girl, and a woman! Yes, Antony, I will be your womb! Oh, and how the songs climax (not sexually, Ryan, get your mind out of the gutter!). I love track one. Good stuff. I wish I good get more free music. Oh well.

By the way I could not answer the phone because I was in Harry Potter 4. Sorry. I am glad you are back.

I am thinking about getting a blog, while I am in the one place next semester.
