On the anime front: Onegai Twins kicks much butt.
Thanksgiving....The older I get, the less I understand my family. After I wrote the previous blog I felt it was a bit depressing, and it's not that bad...esp not compared to some...but still. In any case, Turkey day was alright. Went amazingly well in fact, for something that was thrown together at the last minute. "Hosted" by my lazy, alcoholic, freeloading great uncle, taken care of by his siblings. Hmm. I earned another bit of wisdom today....I re-learned that as an adult, or at least a good one, you gotta "suck it up" Never in my short life have I understood why people do stupid chit, or stuff they KNOW is harmful to themselves or others....Especialy when they paraded around their wrongdoings for all to see.
Yesterday at Turkey Day...and Today, at my great-uncles "Turkey Day Part II", I realized (again) that life is too short to let other peoples stupid shit stress you out. If I can just keep from forgetting that, I'll be a step ahead for once. That sounds really familiar.... I also keep forgetting the part emotions play in these things. I have been even more of a straight, no b.s. kinda guy than I used to be...because of all the b.s. I was forced to go thru. I usually don't think in terms of feelings, but right or wrong. Maybe that's part of my problem. Too much thinking. Sleep Now.

New update....put big block in shop. Found out might need new crank. Dammit. Been thinking that I think and pontificate too much. Dammit. Saw Beat Takeshi's Brother Pretty good flick, especially if you're used to foreign flicks. Just like Beat, my brother and I seem to care less about each other, and if it came down to it, bet he would run too. Sad, but not unusual in this day and age. Haven't been sad in quite a while...just disappointed. Good thing I've got friends...
Anyhow, been thinking I psychoanalyze shit too much. I will stop that. It always keeps me frozen when I need to be movin. Like big block...spent way more money (on BILLS dammit!!!) than I anticipated. How and the hell am I gonna pay for the big block? Just gotta work my ass off, I suppose. Been liking angry type music lately....system of a down, linkin park, monster magnet....
I gotta get done with school. That is factoid #1. Then I gotta get outta this town. factoid #2.
