Marathons anyone?

I need to put this out there NOW. I've mentioned this to Ron in passing at the Gym. You know, while were running a measly 2 or 3 (maybe 1.5) miles on the assisted running machines.

Essentially, I want to run a marathon in the next three to four years. If you don't know, a marathon is roughly 26 miles (sometimes a little more). Many people will start training a good year in advance. It will take me a LOT longer but I really feel the need to strive for something. I need a workout goal. Yes, just wanting to be healthy is nice, but I think it would be amazing to strive for running a marathon. Liz (my sister's friend) ran one, said it was hell. I want to experience this hell. I want to conquer it. Especially because at one point when my knees started hurting I thought running was out of the question. Since working out though, I've realized, it's not. It's more about that persistent effort through time. A lesson that can be applied to ALL facets of my life, something I just never fully internalized while growing up.

I'm rambling now.

And for shits and giggles, here are some marathons I DON'T plan on running.

I also put this out here because by putting this intention and sharing it with you all, I will feel a deeper sense of need to accomplish this. I also want to know if anyone is interested this goal as well.

ps If I had the time, I would so photoshop the brigade faces on those elvis heads!

Would you like pubes with that?

Where to begin...fortunately, this post has nothing to do with any experinces I've had, well, that I'm sharing =)




I wish I could just invent some funny story to tie into this. But I just can't. So here it goes:

Some guy contacted Dell for help repairing his NEW laptop. In the process, due to advice by the dell technician, the guy's OLD laptop got fried.

After an hour, he convinces Dell to send him a replacement for his hold laptop. It comes. He opens it, notices scratches and immediately becomes worried. He opens it and notices hair all over the keyboard. Wait? Not just any hair, but pubic hair! The article has a picture towards the end...I just couldn't post that pic. It was wrong.

Link

You'd think Dell thought the guy wanted to establish a psionic(sp?) connection with the previous owner. ;)

Wait, what's this Lorigga! You sick sick man, are you also linking to a reverse teabagging!!!

Just thank me for not including any pictures in this one...click at your own risk.

I also declare this post a solid Orange Threat.

Yahtzee Fun with No More Heroes

After playing some Killer7 yesterday with Adam, and ordering No More Heroes for cheap through amazon, watching this made me happy.

M3 Real

In case anyone has been wondering as of late I have been very busy with my new t.v. and my recently purchased M3 Real DS player. The T.V. has been fun because its big, its flat, and its cool. But the M3 Real has been extra fun because I can do so much with it and Ive always wanted one. The M3 Real DS player is a cartridge that enables me to play NDS roms on my DS lite off of a SDHC transflash card! Its awesome. In the last 2 days I have played Final Fantasy Crystal Chronicles, FF 12 Revenant Wings, Yoshiis Island 2, Mario Kart, Metroid Prime Hunters, Castlevania DS, and many more games at the mere click of a touch screen without having to switch, or purchase, different cartridges. Its awesome. You can buy one off of Amazon oddly enough. I guess because its a "movie player" its sort of legal. I havent tried to download any movies yet but Ive read that its very easy to do. It also plays mp3s and theres a function for GBA roms but I didnt purchase the extra hardware needed to enable it. Check it out all you Nintendo DS lovers. Its worth a second look. 3 weeks ago I was going to purchase FF Cyrstal Chronicles for 40 bucks and today I played it after a 5 minute download from a random website. By the way. As of right now my favorite games are FF 12 Revenant wings and FF CC. I think I like the 12 one better because its more or less tactics with FF12 characters but FF CC has the whole super cutsy, sort of easy, hack and slash fun that I always liked in the original. Both games are amazing, especially for free. Hope everyone else is out there in digital splendor. God bless tax returns! I will be crawling out of my DS slumber tomorrow at some point if anyone wants to play WoW or Source. Have a great night.

Control revisted

Control
The sickest thing is that I miss that control
When I was snorting a line of cocaine or smoking a run of heroin off of foil
I had that control
I felt that exhilarating rush that I had done it again
I had cheated death and life
I was feeling that sweet rush of my own death and no one could do anything about it
Society, my peers, my family, even God could not stop me
I knew that I was cutting myself so desperately short and I loved it because no one could stop me
Not even myself
Control
I reached a point when it became easier to just let you take control
You were moving my hands and lips to eek out a facade of humanness so that I could satiate your ravenous desires
The cold empty state in my heart, that void, the lack of love and light allowed you to take over my mind
But never without my consent
I was actively taking a back seat to the darkness
I was choosing to let chaos destroy everything that I had accumulated over all my adult life
It was the best part of the high
The control
