Well . . . I was rummaging through my old stuff and I found this short story I wrote in Junior High along with some art works.
I was a really messed up kid. I had this spastic style of writing that I thought I had only recently aqcuired. It's actually kinda funny in a mind numbing way. Here's the story:
------------------------- ------------------------- ---------------
A long, long, while ago there was this flat desolate desert with only a couple of mud puddles splotched here and there. The reason for this is that there weren't any mountains to catch the passing clouds and make rivers that lead into lakes.
There won't be humans on the earth for quite some time. But that doesn't mean we can't have a hero in this story. It starts in this desert near one of these puddles I talked about earlier in the community of Flag-staff. (Not that animals had towns or anything, but I gave it a name just for the heck of it.)
With Rex (the Jack-Rabbit) hopping around, Venom (the scorpion) couldn't get any rest of any kind. (Not that he even sleeps but...). He decided to go out and personally complain to Bob about stirring him from his rest. On his way out Jack (one of many lizards) bumped into him since Venom wasn't the only one disturbed by Rex. When they got out to rex to complain he simply told him that if he didn't jump, he wouldn't be a jackrabbit.
His jumping around got to the point where every one in that town including the other rabbits were annoyed. So they decided that they would build an underground town so they wouldn't be bothered by him. Unfortunately not very many animals were good diggers. So they built mounds filled with caves instead. After a while the animals forgot why they were even in there or who they were. That led to building more and more mounds until those mounds became mountains. These mountains were the Rocky Mountains.

I drew this one in anticipation for the next half life game. I'm impressed with the graphics, although I fear what it will look like when the enemies gib. Anyhoo . . . headcrab meets Trogdor.
So . . . on to more interesting subjects. Dating!
My freind called me up again this morning, looking to see if I had gone on a date with the girl he had previously tried to set me up with (see "it's all about scoring free goodies"). I told him I wasn't that interested and I didn't want to spend any more than 5 bucks on the date (translated = bug off). So, he got noble, called up the girl and had her call me up to hang out at my house. oye . . .
well, the date wasn't as horrible as it could have been. She was a nice enough girl, just not hot. Anyhoo . . . I didn't spend more than 5 bucks. And I broke a new barrier that I hadn't done before . . . i snuggled. Yeah, yeah, I know. I'm 21, and this is the first time I snuggled? yes, it is bub! But, as we all know some people just are better at some things than other people are at making chimpanzes act. I just happen to stink at dating.

Well . . .
before I get to the story at hand, here's a couple data points I need to get clear. First off, I'm in colledge. Second, I'm in Utah. The reason I mention that is around here it's popular for young kids my age to get married. I don't want to for some time yet. I'm still nearly broke and I don't have interest in tying myself down in commitments.
Shallow? Yes. But hey, I'm only 21. I still need a couple years to live for crying out loud.
Anyhoo . . . a few of days ago I came to the realization that if I didn't date as much, I could save money. Money which could be used in colledge or video games. :) So . . . here's today's little diddy:
My freind calls me up this morning and tries to convince me that I need to find a date to double with him for the weekend. I promptly remind him that through the normal course of daily events, I never meet any girls my age (where I work, there's a 3 year age difference between me and everyone else.) So, I also decline the offer to go double on the weekend.
Then my freind offers to set me up on a blind date. :( A couple days I went on a 26 dollar blind date and was unattracted to the girl. (She wasn't ugly, nor anything special.) So I declined that as well.
My freind persists and so I agree, on the condition that I get to see the girl first and decide for myself whether or not to go out with her. (save me the pain.) After some scrambling on my freind's part, he unexpectedly shows up at my place with a girl. 20-ish, red hair, thin, cute but not hot. That, and I was still, admittedly, a little sore over the last date. So, my freind, the girl, and I had a pleasent conversation over a game of pool and I didn't make a single reference to dating. (although judging by her sighs it seemed like she wanted to.)
After the game, my freind had to leave. And being frustrated that I didn't try to hit it off takes a sticky-note, jots down my number, and gives it to the girl. Then he gives the girl a sticky so that she can give me her number. And the two left out the front door.
One second later my freind comes charging in and asks why I didn't ask her out on a date. I explained that dating really wasn't on the mind. He then points me down and pronounces, "Well, I'm going to talk to her and make sure she calls you!!!!" which means . . . .
FREE DATE!!!!!!!!!! WOOO HOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think I should feel bad for not being the knight in shining armour, but I don't care. After all, next paycheck I get, I can buy myself a game cube!!!

well . . .
first time at a blog station. so, how y'all doin?
I'm just chattin' to let y'all know I'm of the freindly persuasion. I don't bite, rant, or kill anyone, so I believe we can be freinds.
Might as well start off by saying: "hello."
I'll readily respond to any questions, answers, or comments sent my way. and I'll add a post anytime something interesting happens. (nightly)
so, have a good one.
