Figured I'd start transferring all my LJ journals over.

Jan. 8th, 2005
That was the name of the entry I had typed up early about going back to school and how much it sucks around here now, blah blah blah. Well, thankfully for you guys, that somehow got messed up and I got frustrated and gave up, so you'll be spared...this time...
The reasoning behind the title, however is simply that's the series of events where the cliche hitman kills you Boondock Saint style should one ever even start to escape your lips. So I saved Matt the trouble and went through the whole thing by myself.
Anyways, despite what the punks and anarchist might feel, I believe that Wal-Mart is a very magical place. Not for their pristine example of capitalism by offering cheap crap and driving the little guy out of business, but more on a socialogical or anthroplogical perspective from what you can see there. For example, I happened to stroll by the novelty lamps and gizmos isle when I witnessed a man with his two children, parked next to all the blinking lights and electric storm thingies that have the electric current inside the glass dome that follows your finger when you touch it. From the way those kids were reacting, you'd have thought they were at Walt-frickin'-Disney. The scariest thing is that I not only admired the guys parenting style, but knew that I would one day do the same should I ever have kids. Just think about it, instead of a family vacation dragging little kids who really don't understand the complexities of a theme park down, to Wal-mart everyday where they're quite content to sit and stare at a bunch of blinking lights and strange shapes. I know I would have as a child.
Also while there I did a bit of browsing, as I now have spendable money for the first time in months. There is a whole list of really awesome novelty junk you can buy that when you think about it, you've always wanted it. Such things included are:
1. Novelty lamps and light up stuff. (seriously, who wouldn't want one)
2. Bonsai tree (well, in this case fake, but it lights up so still cool)
3. Steering wheel cover, steel skull rear light cover, and an assortment of useless decorative junk to pack into your car. (Sorry James, no Ti ki air freshener)
4. Magic 8-ball. (This can also fit into the above category thanks to my warped mind and bad sense of humor)
5. Paper Shredder (I need not explain)
There's a lot more stuff just as cool, but I can't really recall at the moment. Well, I guess I'll just post again when I have something to actually say. Until then..
