last day :(

So it's my last day of work today. It's sad to say that I won't be working with bungie anymore.

For those of you interested, I'll be down at Pies & Pints from 9 - 12 tonight. Pictures to appear tomorrow :)

Well, I'm off!

scorpios, libras and Capricorns...

So I have been attracted to a lot of Libras which I find quite amazing considering our apparent lack of compatibility. Supposedly I'm too intense for their easy-going fun loving lifestyle. Also my jealous nature is never a good thing.

Supposedly I'm HIGHLY compatible with capricorns. I also think this is interesting because I think the capricorn and I have similar personalities which I'm not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing, or just a thing.

It's true that I like girls, I just don't want to hurt anyone, but I want to be loved and comforted. I know it's a lot to ask, but I'm selfish like that.

(*I'm moving into my new room now, pictures to come later!*)

how to geek it out...

So I'm fine with my title of geek/nerd/whatever. I realize that some of my dear readers may be wanting to know how they can get such recognized but somewhat obscure "titles" so I thought I'd share with you today :)

1) No matter what people tell you, you CAN still watch "cartoons" (although we nerds like to refer to it as anime)
2) Read online comics such as Penny Arcade
3) Read regular print comics for that matter :)
4) Continue to play video games well beyond your 18th year of living
5) It helps to be obsessed with one or more of the above things

(Note: there are other things that help you geek out... like the SCA but that's only for the extreme nerd in you. If you're willing to do that, then you get nerd kuodos from us lesser nerds :) )

Qualifiers: Number 4 has some constingencies... cool people play video games too, the nerd aspect is when it interferes with your social life or becomes your social life

Anyway, I hope this has helped you learn a little more about me and the groups I travel in. Oh and remember to say bless you :)

same story different lives...

it seems that I can't remember when people tell me they don't want me in their life anymore.

In other news, I think most of the girls that I've met online are bisexual. How weird is that?

Peace-

myspace... your space... love everybody...

So the tattoo reads... Love everybody... or Love everything in Latin of course... it's on a ribbon that's wrapped around a heart... not the cartoon type hearts everyone draws... but the kind you see in medical books... a picture of a physical heart... I think it draws on the idea of love as something physical and emotional and unconditional... something that is both beautiful and ugly... universal and unique.

I have a myspace's account as well which you can find here

For that matter, here's my match.com profile

I think that's most of my online presence. I'm not sure if I've forgotten anything though.

Things in life are slowly returning to norMAL.

So I ran into an old friend on IM the other day... and she said she didn't mind if I linked to her again. So I just did. I'm kinda famous now, cause I'm the title of one of her blog entries ;) At least I think I'm famous :)

Well, I need to get to work. Peace and Love-
Tim

I dropped acid on a saturday night...

So I got a new cell phone tonight. That's my big news. I ordered a cell phone through cingular since it was linked from my AT&T account and now I have nationwide roaming. So if I go to NY or CA or FL or TX or wherever in these great states of ours, I'll be able to call peeps. And recieve calls for that matter.

Oh, also for those silly enough to follow, I joined hi5.com which seems to be some sort of friendster/myspace rip-off. You can join and be my friend here.

Also, I'm in love with Sin City

OK, well, I think I'm going to church on sunday, so that'll be a treat:) Anyway, I gotta get some sleep as I am still heavily drugged... mmm NyQuil my love!

Peace-
T

silently waiting...

It's 7:17pm and I am exhausted. I haven't done anything in particular today, but I am sick so that may have something to do with it.

So, I watched Samurai Champloo today. That was good. Oh and I ordered a new phone today, so that's exciting.

I was all set to go to church today. Then my housemate called upstairs and we ended up going to the Longshoreman's daughter, which wasn't all that good.

Tomorrow, Karla is moving the rest of her stuff out, and I'll start moving my stuff across the hall to my new room.

Anyway, I think I'll call it an early night.
Take care-
Tim

a day of rest...

so I've been coming down with a cold and it hit me full force today. And now I've forgotten to eat dinner :(

Anyway, it was a mostly restful day. I went and got subway, once I was awake at 1pm. I'm thinking of going to church tomorrow, so that should be fun. I haven't decided for sure, probably depends on how I feel when I wake up.

Anyway, I'm going to go eat some dinner. I hope everyone is feeling better than me.
Peace-

pentathalon!

Well today is the day of major competition at work! We have a pentathalon today and I'll be representing us in the mario tennis and pictionary departments! w00t!

I'll fill you in as to how it goes, maybe even with pictures!

Well, I am sick, but that won't stop me from drinking today :)

Catch you later-
Tim

favorite worship songs of all time..

So as a sort of switch up, I thought I'd share with you my 2 favorite worship songs of all time! How exciting is that?

Holy of Holies-
Take me past the outer courts, through the holy place,
past the brazen altar, Lord I want to see your face,pass me by the crowds of people,
and the priests who sing your praise,
Lord I hunger and thirst for your righteousness,
and it's only found in one place,

Take me into the holy of holies,
Take me in by the blood of the lamb,
Take me into the holy of holies,
Take the coal, cleanse my lips,
here I am


Beautiful Scandalous Night-
Go on up to the mountain of mercy
To the crimson perpetual tide
Kneel down on the shore
Be thirsty no more
Go under and be purified

Follow Christ to the holy mountain
Sinner sorry and wrecked by the fall
Cleanse your heart and your soul
In the fountain that flowed
For you and for me and for all

Chorus:
At the wonderful, tragic, mysterious tree
On that beautiful, scandalous night you and me
Were atoned by His blood and forever washed white
On that beautiful, scandalous night

On the hillside, you will be delivered
At the foot of the cross justified
And your spirit restored
By the river that poured
From our blessed Savior's side

...
so that was them... I think I like the second one because it shows the irony of the christian faith. A salvation through the death of the savior. How a betrayal can be turned into a miracle. How God can use our most imperfect attempts at rebellion for his ultimate good.

The first song is more about desiring to know God which is something I would like to start striving for again.

Well, I'm audi 5000.
Peace-

closing doors & learning respect...

So I guess I need to learn respect and how to control my feelings. I've been told 2 times within the last 4 weeks that I should respect the women I know. I didn't realize I was so disrespectful and I'm not sure how to go about showing respect.

So I think I know how to fall in love, it's the falling out of love that I'm no good at. A broken heart really hurts, and almost cries out for a physical representation.... Sometimes I think it would be easier to heal if it were.

I need to run away, anyone want to join me?
-T

how nerdy are YOU?

the wheels on the bus go round & round...

It's 1am. I should be asleep but the damn world of warcraft is sucking my sleepiness and replacing it with desire to stay online...

Anyway, didn't make it to volleyball tonight :( I did end up going running around greenlake around 10pm, so that was nice. I am really sleepy but the game... the game...

zzzzz

gnight!
T

the game...

what does it mean to not fall in love for 5 years?

I had a friend recently tell me that he hadn't been in love for more than 5 years, despite his continuing relationships with several people over that time. I think that is a very sad statement.

I think it's time to let down the walls and love someone. I think loving someone is one of the scariest things we humans do. It is basically letting down your walls and trusting someone and respecting them enough to trust them not to hurt you.

I think I may be in love with the idea of being in love :)
Peace-
Tim

new room...

So Karla is officially moving out next weekend.

That is sad, but exciting for her. I guess it'll be the same as like now, only her room will be empty. Only I'll be moving in to that room, so I guess my room will be empty :(

Well, I suppose for the price I should be happy I'll be getting the larger room. Anyway, I'm moving rooms later this month and will be enjoying all the extra space in my new room.

I hope everyone is having an enjoyable life. Catch you later!
Peace-

free concerts and good drinks...

So last night I went to see United State of Electronica and I was thinking about another college band I was in school with called The carolines. So I decided to look them up today and low and behold, they're playing a free concert in seattle tonight!

So it looks like I'll be spending more money on alcohol tonight:) I'm thinking black russians or mojitos... maybe just the beer thing... Mac & Jacks is ALWAYS a tasty treat.

Oh and for the livejournal junkies... I'm sad for your loss of power.

Well, I'm off to brave freezing rain and snow... wish me luck!
Peace-
T

annonymous my ass...

it seems one of my online friends has deleted her blog :(

Anonymous girl, you'll be missed...

In other news, I went to a United States of Electronica concert tonight. It was most excellent. If you'd like to check them out, you can here

Well, it's 2 am, I need to sleep. I hope everyone is doing well. I'll catch you later.
Peace-
Tim

far away friends...

I just wanted to give a shout out to Kevin who has returned to blogging :)

You may remember this guy as Super-gonzo, but since then he's been married, so now he's a cheeky monkey :) At least that's my take on it!

Also, I'm addicted to World of Warcraft. I've been trying to hide it, but it's true.

I hope everyone is having a good day!
Peace-
Tim

what's up?

So I'm sitting here wondering about life... about me... about you... about what I want... about what I desire....


"You gotta love everybody, make 'em feel good about themselves" - Presidents of the united states of america

I am exhausted. I am sleepy. I want a full-time position. I want a vacation. I want to be desired.

I need to work now...
Peace-
T

lust

It's true, I lust.

Today I found that I desire a Mac! As a loyal PC enthusiast, the mac does offer some sexy stylings that have been missing from my PC for years... and now it's affordable!

The Mac Mini

and then there's the new shuffle that would be perfect for running around greenlake!

The iPod Shuffle

Desire, lust, want... I am a consumer whore!
Peace-
t

sick

I'm sick! Literally and figuratively. I am sleeping at night, which is new for me. I don't have another interview yet, which makes me sad, but also I'm not overly concerned about it.

That's about all from my corner of the world right now.
Catch you later-

tyler durden's world...

So if you're like me, you've seen fight club. At least once, if not multiple times. I was thinking about how I feel like the same lump of clay as everyone else. I have drive in life, but have trouble knowing why *I* am any better than anyone else. I don't know how to convince myself let alone anyone else that I am worth loving or knowing.

Wouldn't anyone be loyal to a friend? Wouldn't anyone pick the least of their friends from the airport? Wouldn't anyone love someone even after rejection because you said you would always love them?

The list of new years resolutions would have read something like:
More exercise
Less Drama (more protection of the personal Tim)
More reading

In this world of Tsunamies and earthquakes, death and famine, murder and mayhem, what is one man-child?

Hear me roar, the man-child. I WANT to EXPERIENCE life with no regrets. I want to travel the wide earth and know no responsibility. I want to be a unique soul knowing everything I touch. I hate the rather blandness that I feel.

Well, I'm off.
Peace-
T

contentment and blogging

so here it is... saturday night. Ran around greenlake this morning, which was way exhausting, but still very good. I'm sure I'll only be a little sore for the rest of this week.

I'm about to head out to the airport to pick up a friend. In case I haven't told you, picking up and dropping off people from the airport is one of my most favorite things to do. I think maybe cause I like to be picked up and dropped off, but who knows.

If you check the history of this blog, you'll notice months on end where I don't even write. I think it's interesting to note that I may go through dry spells of non-writing, or maybe I'm too busy with other stuff. I definitely know that during some summer months it takes a LOT of effort to sit in a sweltering room and type on here.

It may also be partly because I'm reading again. I started "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" this week and it's really fun.

I want to give a shout out to my friend Kim, who's birthday it is today. We had dinner at Rays boathouse, which was nice :)

Anyway, I need to get going to the airport.
Check you guys later.
Peace-
T

snow in seattle

It's SNOWING!!!!!

Well, it's finally happened. there is snow coming down outside. It's times like this that I wish I had chains for my car:) Anyway, I'm busily catching cheaters, so i'm off.

Catch you later-

Is there anyone out there, cause it's getting harder and harder to breathe

For the love of all things iPod. Can I just tell you that I love my little guy. He's the best invention ever!

I just got off the phone with Aaron about a playoff football game that I won't be going to. It's this saturday and everything is happening this saturday anyway, without football becoming part of it. Which reminds me, I need to write some emails...

Catch you later-

life as a play with actors and actresses

Sometimes I think life would be easier with a script and cameras pointing me in which direction to go.

Is it just me or do all people have commitment problems? Most of the time I wish I had a time machine and could see how this life turns out. Would I miss the adventure? I'm not sure. I can't really be sure of anything anymore.

The zodiac signs point to love with a capricorn... how interesting is that?

My lips are cracking from the dryness :( I need more chapstick.

Off to work.
Peace-
Tim

life as a blogger...

It seems that we all go through our phases...

love, hate, fear, hope, sadness, hapiness, lonliness, overburdeness suicide, life...

I'm in the middle of a happy funk mood. According to some I am an ideal boy.


I'm listening to Modest Mouse, which is always good especially if you're in a happy funk mood. I think I may be going to go Salsa dancing on saturday... I'm not sure yet.

Am I lonely right now? Not really... I had a good time with my friend tonight. Do I understand love right now? I'm not really sure. I get glimpses of love. I think I know it, but other times it seems like a strange and foreign beast.

It's now 12:34... I'm off to bed.
Peace-
Tim

reverence, respect, loving, fucking and greenlake...

My mom was always pretty cool while I grew up. She raised me as best a single mother could, although she may have beena little overprotective in my highschool years, but she was always someone I could talk to. Now, she is the quintisential grandmother... ok not the quintisential one, the one where you can't have any yelling or running at her house. I think I understand my mom and step-dad's want for respect, but I think they want reverence. It seems that respect can include fun like running and screaming, but maybe I'm just a kid still and wouldn't understand respect.

On respect, can you respect someone and still want to fuck them? Or do you have to make love to someone you respect? What does respect mean? Does it mean that you must avoid certain topics of conversation? Does it mean that you must revere them?

What about love? Are you supposed to respect them to the point of letting go of your love for them? Someone once said that if you love something, you let it go, if it comes back to you then you know it's love. And if you can't trust people because everyone you've fallen for has been past the point of loving you. It's a hard knock life.

Well, I ran around greenlake this morning. It felt so good to get the air moving through my lungs. It was hella cold... I think it was like 32 degrees or so:) Anyway, I love this feeling... and I'm off to help Aaron build a computer.
Peace-

blogger luvin

So this post was originally entitled, blah, but then I got 3 messages from the blogging world in the matter of 2 minutes, so that put me in a better mood. Plus I cleaned my room, so that's a happy feeling.

I'm puting the photos of my clean room up on my photo blog, so if you'd like to see what 'clean' is to me for my room, then you can go look there:) On a side note, I need more storage space like NO tomorrow, so that's why it is cluttered. Also, maybe I may be a bit of a pack rat... I'm not really sure.

Well, with little to no fanfare, we are in 2005. I went out with Peter & Hope last night. We went to the German bar around the corner from my house and shared boots. Boots are these huge ass beers that you pass around the table and drink out of. It was pretty fun and we were with a bunch of Peter's friends so it was enjoyable. We came back to Pies & Pints and had another beer while one of the girls went outside and puked. I only became slightly buzzed.

In other news, I am going to enjoy my sleep tonight as I have new sheets and I flipped my mattress:)

Well, I'll catch you guys on the flip side...
Peace-
T

PS- Happy new year:)
