So I decided to take a break from stress because quite simply I felt like I was losing myself so I did something fun! I decided that since I've never seen them I'm gonna watch all of the current Harry Potter movies. And to my surprise they were freaking awesome! So I've come up with a list of mental notes I thought I'd share on them:
1. Snape is ultimately a good guy. He's only a cynical old bastard because of my next point.
2. James Potter is a freaking capital D Douche Bag.
3. Albus Dumbledore > Gandolf. Stfu. Hands down.
4. Luna Lovegood is win.
5. The entire Malfoy family is fail.
6. Sirius Black is a complete BAMF but also a Douche Bag in his younger years.
7. I find myself strangely attracted to Minerva McGonagall.
8. The twins are freaking ninja.
9. Cedric Diggory is freaking awesome. Robert Pattinson is cool.
10. Wasn't Viktor Krum supposed to have a unibrow?
So yeah one of the main reasons I did this is so I can see the new one in 3-FREAKING-D on the 29th. I think it was the 29th? But yeah... Imax 3D Harry Potter. Win. |

So it seems like one trial after another. I sometimes wonder if I'll actually make it. My (late) rent is due Friday. Sam and I got shafted by an employer for an amount of money I'm not going to disclose because it'll just piss me off and put me in a bad mood... worse mood. But luckily I listen to motivating music. >.> Well the point is because of this ass hat trying to not only short us, but then writing us bad checks we can't afford rent. Sam has a new job already, I'm still looking, but I'm hopeful. So along with another girl that worked with us we have to take this up with the Labor Board which is totally gonna ruin any chance this guy had of ever having an established business because the Labor Board will fuck you up. We tried giving this guy every chance in the world to do what's right but he never did. So now we're totally screwed on rent and I have no idea what we're going to do. I'm extremely tempted to post a Paypal button here and ask for donations. >.< I don't think I'm that desperate yet. Or am I? I'm not even sure I can make it. But I have to. Where else will I go? What else will I do? Even if I came back where would I go? I can do this, right? Yeah... I'll figure out a way. I love how I'm my own pep rally. Oh also on a different, more awesome note. Check out the song I'm listening to on youtube or something. It's great. And someone tell Nathan about this guy. |

It was hard to find the irony of running as fast as I could to help someone while wearing a Flash hoodie funny when a life actually is on the line. I didn't think I could take another step at the speed I was going. It was well after midnight yet there I was running down the streets of Los Angeles like a mad man. I had somewhere to be. I was about a mile away from the vet still before a sudden shock came over me and I slid to a stop. I opened up the the orange towel I had folded in my arms. But lets rewind a day or so.
It was Monday morning, maybe about 1pm breakfast time, no? So of course I mosey on over to the kitchen to make some cereal then I look out the window and notice a litter of kittens hanging out in the drive way. "What the heck are kittens doing in my back yard?" So I call Sam in the kitchen to take a look. It was probably about the same time we both realized all the dangers for kittens in this neighborhood. Between the dogs and a certain stray cat that fights other cats (probably killing a few of them too) So we thought we'd go out and try to rescue a few and find them homes. We manage to get one of them before they all run away. There was no mother to be found but we assumed that the male that was hanging out with them was the father. As the day passes we manage to save one more. But the others at this point were no where to be seen.
Shortly after we got them in Jim (Who's full name is awesomely Jim Carter.) went out and got us emergency kitten care kits. They weren't in the best of shape, so we had to take some action and fast! We got them cleaned up, fed and then after talking to a few people about their condition they were diagnosed with an upper respiratory infection. Not completely deadly but it can worsen, especially in kittens. So we started treating them for it and after a while it cleared up a bit and they kittens became very social with everyone.
After a few days together the kittens while still being sick had become very active and started being more playful. They weened off of the bottle feeding pretty quickly and moved on to liquid food. They spent a good amount of the day resting but they did so generally on Sam's lap or mine.
Thursday night rolls around without much complication and steady recovery for the kittens when out of no where one of the kittens starts screeching and shaking. At first we thought maybe he was just reacting to a dream or something because he was sleeping. But then he started doing it repeatedly and loss control of his bladder. So I call up a 24 hour emergency vet just have them tell me if I don't have 140 upfront and whatever it costs for fluids and shots then I won't be seen. So of course I tell them I don't have any money, but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't do our best to save this kittens life. They're vets after all, it's what they do. So after they were frustrated with me enough they gave me a number for a shelter that's 24 hours that stays open for emergencies. So I call them and no one answer. I call back the vet and talk to them again. I'm so frustrated that I can barely speak. Tears are running down my face, my throat hurts, my eyes are burning and I can hardly piece together each word. The receptionist is actually starting to tear up it sounds at this point but she keeps telling me how they can't bend the rules for one kitten. So I hang up the phone to try to find the closest emergency shelter. There's one about 2.4 miles away so I wrap the kitten up in my towel, put my shoes on and throw on my hoodie. Sam asks "Where are you going?" I can barely force an answer through the tears, sadness and anger. "... I'm gonna make someone help me." So I head out the door with this poor kitten wrapped up in a towel.
I'm determined to save him. It's not just a kitten. It's not just an animal. This is a life. A life I wanted to try my best to save. But we've gotten up to this point, right?
I open up the towel to see the kitten lying in it motionless. Of course denial or some false sense of hope comes first so I try to convince myself that it's just asleep from being exhausted. I shake the kitten gently and it just kind of flops. Then I shake it harder and nothing happens... It didn't just feel like a kitten. It felt like I was losing a child that I tried my best to save. So feeling defeated I make my way back home to give it a "burial" as best I could.
I was frustrated because if I had money, or if these businesses had enough money to help a kitten and not worry about payment upfront maybe, just maybe things would have been different. The irony of this is on this coming up Monday I start my job at a company called Donor Services Group. What do we do you ask? Well we raise money. Yeah. We raise money for rights groups, environmental groups, and yeah, you guessed it. Animal rights groups shelters and things like that. I've accepted that I lost this fight. But the war of doing what's right and helping all life no matter how big or small is far from over. |

Ok life update. I have internet! Woooooooooo!!!! SAY SAY SAY SAY SAY SAY SAY HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!! HADO GEI!!! HOOOOO!!!! *cough* Anyway I have a house now. It's pretty cool. I live in it with like 3 other people. We have cable, and internet and food oh man. It's great. Yesterday was the first time I got real food in ages. It was sweeeeeeet!
I'm working at http://www.luigiortegas.com/home.html The place is radcore. Check it out.
In other news I've been able to play Shin Megami Tensei Imagine again. I've missed it. I can't afford any pay online games right now but I'll get back to those soon. For now Imagine is rocking my socks. Speaking of which, I'd like to share with you my favorite weapon in a game ever!
( Introducing... )
Also preparations for a project I'm working on are under way. I don't want to say too much about it yet just in case it doesn't get off the ground. But if it does I hope to help a lot of people. It should be going by June. |

I smell like farm. I'm tired. It's time to take a short break. We'll be staying the night in Denver, Colorado. My starter died in Jubesville, CO which is right at the tip of the state. We got that replaced and all. It's actually a pretty friendly little town. I met an older guy named Preacher who helped me out and then a guy named Steve Collins fixed the car. In the meantime we hung out on his 5 acre plot of land doing absolutely nothing but calling horses unicorns and being amazed about seeing real tumble weed tumbling. I mean really, that shit's amazing. Well I'mma go check out the area. We'll be heading out early in the morning to go through the mountains and the last part of our trip. |

Sam and I started playing this the other day. We haven't gotten very far but it's pretty solid so far, It's like Nocturne mixed with Lineage or WoW or something along those lines. If you're a SMT fan of any sort definitely check this out. http://megaten.aeriagames.com/ Oh also, did I mention, free to play! Fuck yeah ladies! You can play this shit for free! Well now I'm all pumped about playing it!
I meant to update about this yesterday but I forgot. The roomates and I were going action figure shopping at a few places and our last stop happened to be target. You know those crosswalk thins where you let pedestrians walk by because there's a stop sign, yeah those things. I was stopped at one of those and some D-bag behind me is all yelling and reving his engine like he's in the biggest hurry ever. After a few seconds of me letting people cross he jets around me and almost hits this group of kids. So naturally, I'm like "WTF, mate" so I go park and we both get out of our cars at the same time and I'm like. "HEY YA TWAT, YOU ALMOST HIT THOSE KIDS! WHAT THE FUCK IS YOUR PROBLEM!?" And of course once people are called out when there's not two tons of steel around them they go from being bad ass hot shots, to wieners in under 60 seconds. So I drop it and we head in to check out the figure selection. And low and behold he's in the toy aisle checking out lame ass new school transformers which just so happen to be across from the figures we were checking out, so I'm standing right next to him and I say "Big hurry for Transformers, eh buddy?" He doesn't say anything, I mean seriously, what DO you say to something like that. God I hate people that are in such a hurry for menial shit that they put others in danger. What a dick. Anywho. I'm done. This entry is all kind of "TL;DR" |

Ok. Where to begin. ...First off I'm alive. So fret no longer ladies! A couple of fractures a dislocated shoulder, a head through a window, and a smashed car door later I'm fairly ok. I have this stupid sling that looks retarded but it helps, I pretty much need to have it on most of the times if I'm not sitting down with my arm resting on something. My car should be done getting fixed later today so that's cool. It turns out they just replaced the door.
In more awesome news I got this totally sweet Flash hoodie the other day. Jonah has a Green Lantern one too we'll post pics later. Uh... Hmmm. That's about it, I'm gonna go bum around now. Later. |
