Conversation of the Night Award Winner pt. II

ericdomk: how was A2?
nizzzlebizzzle: hahahahaha
nizzzlebizzzle: billy couldn't figure out how to make the synchopation for the flying faders work, so from 2:15 until 3:10 he sat in front of the computer and tried to get them to work
nizzzlebizzzle: we were all having out own conversations and stuff; it wasn't class, it was more like free time
ericdomk: oh man...I can only wait until that day!

Also, there's nothing better than checking your bank account and having more money than you thought you did. Rock!

I don't know what else to do...

So let's say I have this "fish." Let's also say for anonymities sake that it's name is "Phil." I've had "Phil" for well over a year now. I bought him as a joke, not really expecting "Phil" to make it past the first few months in a college dorm room.

But "Phil" is a fighter. He is quite possibly the heartiest fish in the world. He's survived not being fed for a week, not having his water changed for upwards of 3 weeks, and eating a blob of peanut butter. He still keeps on swimming. If the movie "Brian's Song" was about a fish, "Phil" would be the star.

The problem is, I don't want "Phil" anymore. But I can't bring myself to flush him down the toilet or anything. If he's going to die, I want it to be by natural neglect. He's the most useless part of our room (besides the little S&M doll thing that Kyle's mom inexplicably gave us last year), but I have a soft spot in my heart for him. He's been there through thick and thin, I want him to die with grace. So I really have no clue what to do here but change his water every so often and try to remember to feed him...maybe give him some more peanut butter.

Do you ever wonder if there are things you should cry about?

to explain, my uncle died this week. I didn't really know him very well, since he lived halfway across the country from me. I think I can count on one hand the number of times I have seen him, but he is my dad's brother, so I feel that I should feel some sort of sadness. And I actually do, but not to the degree that I thought I would. Maybe the unfamiliarity is what leads to this lack of emotion. I don't know. Hence the title of this piece.

My Alanis Morissete Song...
With help from my roomate, Kyle Duquette
"Why"


Twinkies, ho-hos, love handles
Why God, Why?
Ho-hos, ice cream cones, fat girls
Why God, Why?

What have I done to deserve this red horror?
Surrounded on all sides with the Hell of fat girls
Like a Keats character, I'm wordy and alone
Why God, Why?

Cottage cheese thighs, twinkies, saggy tits
Why God, Why?
Fat girls, saggy tits, love handles
Why God, Why?

What have I done to deserve this red disaster that is my life?
Surrounded on all sides with the Hell of fat girls
Like a Keats character, I'm wordy and alone
Why God, Why?

What have I done to deserve this red misery?
Surrounded on all sides with the Hell of fat girls
Like a Keats character, I'm wordy and alone
Why God, Why?

Why God, Why?
Why God, Why?
Why God, Why?
Why God, Why?
