my pain (emo)


Didn’t I already have a post called The Saga Concludes?

Anyway, here’s the deal.  I was on the phone with Ryan.  I’m going to Buffalo shortly for a job interview.  After dissing my current work predicament, Ryan stated that my job interview will be “A New Hope.”

I responded by laughing and saying, “Danos Episode IV:  A New Hope.”

Then… it struck me.  A vision.  My life has been quite like the Star Wars films.

Well… not really.  That’s a pretty big stretch.  I don’t know any creepy old guys with British accents, and I’m not a whiny farmhand who lives with his Aunt and Uncle.

I did, however, come with with, “Danos Episode I:  The Child Menace.”  I was a bit rowdy as a kid.

Then, of course, came “Danos Episode II: Attack of the Teachers.”  I loved making my teachers lives hell, right around fourth grade.

Fast forward a few years like the movies, and all of a sudden, we’re up to “Danos Episode III:  Revenge of the Bitches.”  I came up with this because of all these girls breaking up with me left and right.

Buffalo (or Texas) really is my new hope.  It’s a fantastic opportunity for me to get out of the OC.  I don’t want to live here anymore.

What do you think Episodes V and VI could be?

Life in the OC contains (but is not full of) things that no longer matter.

I’ve been removing a few things from my life lately. I removed an entry from this blog. I’ll prolly remove a few more. I removed a ton of links in the blogroll, mostly because they’re never updated anymore. The ones I left? Well, they’re never updated, either. I removed cable TV back in September, October. Suprisingly, No TV, No Beer does NOT make Dan something something.

I removed a couple of things from my Wii. I wanted to try Wii Ware, so I had to get rid of the useless “Check Mii Out” Channel, as well as the much more useless “Metroid Prime 3 Preview” Channel. I deleted a ton of save data for games I’ve rented. After all of that, I barely had enough room for “Lost Winds.” It’s okay. I was under the impression that it would be a bit “Metroidvania,” and it kind of is. It’s just not as fun as the series that originated the term Metroidvania. I’m not so sure it was worth the 1,000 points, either.

There are a few more things I need to remove from my Wii.  Non-save data related things.  My apartment definitely needs a few things removed, too. I’ve thought of removing my myspace a couple of times. Once, I even tried to do it. I couldn’t figure out how to do it. Maybe the only way is to “zero out” all of the information.

I’m on vacation. It’s the end of May. I have always taken this week for vacation, the week prior to Memorial Day. Right now, it’s 40 degrees, windy, and rainy. It’s never like this on this week. If I could, I would remove this bad weather.
