When people say that karma is a bitch, do not slap them in the face like you think you should... ask them what happened. |

Well I did not check the catche, but I think it's been a quite a while since I've posted anything. Let me give you a quick rundown:
1) Been following an election for over a year.. pocketbook will say so.
2) Still at post-college job. Who would have known that after high school and college you'd have to figure something out?
3) I like Columbus. It's accessible, gay-friendly, sycamore-lined, and young. What else could you ask for... other than the lack of a discriminatory amendment..Current Mood:  blank

jesus. I guess the last time I updated I was trying to find a place and a job in Columbus. Here's how it played out:
I got a job as a barista at the Cup o Joe in my neighborhood and promptly became drunker than I was during Senior Week. This lasted for an entire summer plus some. Then, one night in September I randomly ran into Charlie who told me that the foreclosure law firm his friend Ravisha works at was hiring. So, after a week or so of putting things off, I emailed my resume in and scheduled an interview. Before I knew it I was waking up at 7 every morning, taking 30 minute lunch breaks, joking about taking away people's lives and houses, and only getting mildly toasted once a week at a happy hour.
So this must be the real world I hear people talk about. |

In 2005, you were loving life and feeling no pain. |

I'm currently feeling a bit agoraphobic.. but for good reasons.
1) my car was broken into on thursday. they/he/she made off with my cd player, digital camera, and digital video camera... looks like no picture updates anytime soon.
2) i got a $120 ticket for making a u-turn on an empty street. apparently the cop thought we were buying drugs because the market we were parked next to apparently sold anything i could ever want. when he realized we were just at the bank he told us that we didn't belong in the area and should stay out (too bad i'm currently staying here and lived here last summer).. later the same cop passed me and pulled over some guy next to me.. that guy was on a fucking rampage. i still wonder why he wasn't busting the drug market he knew so much about.
3) i was almost home and a car filled with ghetto rats almost hit me, and then preceded to follow me really closely honking and hollering. having watched the crime filled local news the last few nights, it scared the shit out of me.
4) a friend witnessed a shoot out which ended in a homicide right across the street from where he lives.. which is 3-4 blocks down from where i'm staying.
woo!
but anyway.. other than that shit, things are going alright. I just put my half of a security deposit down on a really cool apartment the other day. Its on the corner of high and buttles.. right across from the coffee table. if anyone wants to come to columbus for pride and/or com-fest, i'll hopefully have a great place to stay for it. other than that, i've been looking for jobs and filling out applications for the last few weeks. right now, it seems like almost anything will do as long as i can start soon.Current Mood:  becoming hopeful

my professor just claimed that the lack of academic integrity in our class (not using sources or citing them) is a result of post modernity. HA

I bet Tom Delay has a tiny penis.
In other news, I believe I can finally see a light at the end of the tunnel.

"according to a 1994 study conducted by researchers at the University of Chicago, conservative Protestant women have more orgasms than any other group."
I think i'd like to see how these questions were asked.

today was day of silence.
tomorrow is can't silence the truth day.
as a philosopher i seriously can't wait to learn what the truth is. i'm glad we have so many enlightened people among us who are more than willing to tell us... and legislate for us.
jesus would be so proud.

So, I've been home for spring break. Loads. of. fun. I've done pretty much nothing since I've been here except hang around the house. Even though it's verged on very boring at times, it has been really nice and needed. I think I've finally caught up on some sleep, blah blah blah. As I was sitting around the house the other day, I decided to go through a bunch of old pictures of the family. I found out that my dad had cool clothes back in the day. I asked him if he still had them but he said no :(. I also found some of me as a little kid.. before I reached the ugly, awkwardness of middle school.
( Back in time.. )

So when Michael's friend, Becky, came to visit him, we were all sitting around the dorm room chatting. I wandered over to the closet and noticed that Michael had a lot of belts....
( Bondage has never been so cute. )

weird, somewhat nerdy dream:
I was sitting in our common room watching tv when they had an update on a supreme court case concerning gay marriage. in the decision justices scalia and rehnquist had decided to abstain. I was so happy... until I just now realized it was a dream.. and there is no such case currently on the docket.
oh well.. nice while it lasted.

Parents Moving past the stroke and the bad back, my parents managed to make it up here this weekend. They were in need of a little time away from the house, I believe... the dead mouse in the ac vents just may have had something to do with that. We spent Saturday looking through stores around granville (note: mom dragged dad and i around while she looked at baby clothes, weird sweaters, and string) and shopped around at easton. I managed to find an awesome suit for possibly impending job interviews. Next step: find jobs to interview for. I also got some kick ass jeans. In the middle of all this shopping they met michael for the first time, and within the first five minutes my mom told a dirty joke:
Dad: Yeah, the beds were pretty bad last night. If you started sleeping in the middle, you'd end up rolling down to the side. I had some pretty weird dreams.
Mom: Those weren't dreams, hun.
Dad and Michael: hahahaha/omg
Jake (1 minute later jaw drops): are you kidding me??! gross!
The next morning we all (parents, myself, and michael) got bfast. It was nice despite the fact we were a bit rugged from the night before and I was hacking up my lungs.
Hedonism Friday night, I simply decided that there was no way I was going to finish my paper on time so I may as well begin the partying. I went down to my room where I met up with Michael. We had a few shots of whiskey and a few drinks before we went to a party in King. After dancing around there for a while, we decided to meet up with craig, steve, rachel, and josh at some new(?) gay bar in newark. It seemed a lot like the smaller gay bars in Columbus: scenish but a bit like cheers at the same time. It was a good time.
Saturday night Michael and I went out to Columbus to hang out at Nick's place. After a while we moved over to Mark's house where Nick promptly did something to provoke Jay... I'd be interested to see Jay's reaction because I'm not so sure Jay gives a shit anymore. While all this was happening, I sat down to a game of chess. Why I did such a thing while buzzed at 2am, I'm not so sure. It was a fun game... I've definitely never had one end in stale-mate. However, while I was playing, I became too poor to pay attention. Hopefully I'll be done paying interest on that debt soon enough ;).
( oh yeah.. i made pictures )

Friday's donner party party = a great time. The costumes were entertaining, and it seemed like everybody there had a great time. I managed to feed the body of christ to just about every person there... even a few jews. It was crazy how quickly the liquor went though.. However when i think back to the amount of whiskey, tequila, and 151 I had, it's not all that surprising.
( Cannablism, drunkeness, and general sketch )
A few people decided to venture to Taco Bell afterwards where I, still dressed as a priest, yelled at the guy behind the counter for being a moron/jerk. No communion for him.
Last night (Saturday) I realized that as a general rule of thumb, I need to be plastered to be fully comfortable at Axis. I also remembered that Jay is a huge bucket of sketch and will always put his sexual desires in front of friends. Later in the evening I saw the new Texas Chainsaw Massacre for the first time. I don't think I've ever actually trembled while watching a movie... or maybe it was low blood sugar.

To all those non-bar-smokers in Columbus, I believe Anastacia said it best: "And I wonder if you know how it really feels to be left outside alone, while it's cold out here. Well maybe you should know just how it feels to be left outside alone, to be left outside alone (ooh)."
