Ahh! Another one!

My pa and I visted the other day, he finaly told me about his time in the Yucatan during Wilma. Apparently his cheaper hotel was somehow the safest and witheld the storm better than any of the surrounding structures. He was going to come home complaining about living off of hot dogs while he was on his vacation, but he ran into a lot of people with stories on his way back to Detroit. Some guy he talked to, from East Lansing, lived off of a piece of fruit a day...

In other news, school is hard when you've lost your academic confidence. I've lost it! I have claves and maracas, but none of that.

Wait, I've got it back. 4.0!

Here's a dorky, kinda-one-sided, movie about organic foods that I had to watch today.

That theremin ben was after went for $51. The next one is already on ebay and they all can't go for $51, can they?

You remember my first post? I found out what a wandering genie is. I want one.

Yet, Lowrey's website sucks, is boring:

"Thank you for the inquiry,There are several reasons the Wandering Genie as well as some other models are not on the web page. They have reached a 10 yr. old plus age. Since then many more Newer Models were introduced, Also many more accessory items were added. We try to keep units on as long as it is practical on the web page - but it gets crowded fast. So we have to eliminate something. So we look at items that are 10 years or more old to make room for the NEW."

I found this thing on ebay it's at least cool looking. Ben's trying to buy it and I hope he wins.

Huh. Yesterday I saw footage of the hurricane over Cancun. I hope my pa is ok vacationing down there...

Update: I got a call this morning from Casey, my dad's girlfriend's daughter. She said they're fine and will be back tuesday.

That's Claudel--you can tell she's a true artist because of her awesome hair.

I love whoever you are for checking up on me. I've been sick and unproductive academically lately. I need a motivational speaker. Can I buy one at the meridian mall? A motivational loudspeaker. ha.

I wrote something about phones today.

On the title track off of Sufjan's new album, 3:08 in, Sufjan uses a sound that I wanted to use. :( It's the noise that my keyboard makes when I put it through my crappy little amp.

I didn't notice that pete was missing anything from his wardrobe until today:

Frontier Ruckus is signed?:

memorytrees: hey man
elodeist: hey matt
memorytrees: a record label/collective wants frontier ruckus in it
elodeist: no way, what are they about?

memorytrees: they're gonna record our album for free
elodeist: wow, that's insane.
memorytrees: sent me a lengthy email
elodeist: wow, cool, you have people courting you...
elodeist: have you wrote back?
memorytrees: ya i was just talkin to him
memorytrees: we're in!
elodeist: wow

To my readers who check this site a few times a day, I apologize for the drought of blogging. You should know that it is not for lack of interesting events in my life. What with the sit or spin session today, missing Pete-comedy at last Spartan standing the other night, and all sorts of papers due and writing and band stuff...But I won't get into that too much. The future's where it's at.

I've got 2 papers due and two tests this week. But I'll get it all done if I don't procrastinate. More.

Also, I'll be posting more this week out of sheer procrastination.
