So Clark and I may have found a place. It's just east of 99th st... not really all that far from the old san-fran warehouse actually; it's close to Barb & Ernie's... and it's about 5 blocks away from Bryan's house (the guy who we recorded our album with). The place is abso-fucking-lutlely gorgeous! You should see this neighbourhood!!! I've never seen a place so beautiful... just tons of huge green trees everywhere. And the house itself is in amazing shape! The house HAS to be old to be in that neighbourhood and yet it still looks brand new. Hardwood floors, 2 rooms and a bathroom upstairs, one room downstairs. The garage is surprisingly large, and the yard is absolutely beautiful. $850/month with $850 damage deposit.

Pros:
1. brand new washer and dryer
2. comes with a lawn mower!
3. hardwood floors
4. big garage
5. really nice yard
6. beautiful neighbourhood
7. overhanging-roof behind the garage... so you can sit in your back yard and stay dry even in the rain!!!
8. I THINK they allow pets since there was a cat there
9. Also, there was a drumset in the basement which is an EXCELLENT sign

overall it's one of the nicest-looking houses I've seen.

Cons:
1. The only big con is that it's small; so that means we can't have giant-ass parties. But we can still definitely have a reasonable number of people over.
2. no dishwasher (but for me, that's kind of a pro because I prefer doing dishes by hand)


So yeah... I think we're gonna try and get it. Only thing is... it was advertised in the paper today and already there were 2 girls before us looking at it. I've just got a bad feeling that if the girls decide they want it, she's gonna choose them over us.

Oh well. It's not that big of a deal because it's actually the first house we've looked at, but damn is it ever nice. If we do manage to get it, we'll definitely be the envy of everyone.

You know what's worse than your sibling deciding that "the family" will do the landscaping for your new house?
Worse than him nobly declaring that he will take the brunt of the work?
Worse than him holding this fact over you before he even starts?
Worse than you being the one that actually does 90% of the landscaping work?
Worse than having to redo the same side of the house three times (two and a half of these times on your own)?
Worse than discovering that, upon laying the last paving stone, you are 2cm of space away from having it perfectly flush with the end of the walk?

Realizing that it's your own goddamn fault for starting the paving stone path 2cm further away from the other end than you had to.


Oh well, it's almost done now. I just have to settle two of the stones a little better, even out the rocks and redistribute some rocks to less covered parts of the yard, and it'll finally be done. And only 10 months overdue. (Not overbudget though because, well, taking on the work by yourself pays absolutely nothing.)

Oh yeah, and I have to figure out how to best guilt my brother about this. What do I need....?

Wow it seems that I am really a terrible, terrible person.

break time. A major portion of my portfolio has been completed this afternoon. Good work me!

well, he can be promoted to King or something. And besides... who ever said there can't be more than one prince?

Bah, it's probably the doppelgänger that walks around CAB...

So, the upcoming NBC reality show called "Who Wants To Be a Hilton?", starring Kathy Hilton, famous for mothering (?) Paris Hilton, is apparently "tragic — really bad." I wish they had paid me the production money, so I could make that pronouncement on my own...

Zah?

i don't think i sent you that Head Automatica, but i did post the leak on May 29, 2005 -- 7:03 PM
Album drops in August and it's killin' already.

my understanding of Satan is that he's behind me.

My understanding of Satan et. al. may not be the most complete, but isn't Satan the Prince of Darkness? At the very least, I'm sure I've heard that title somewhere, indicating to me that it may have already been taken.

Besides, you're competing with Judas, Brutus and Cassius! Those fuckers know evil (of which, apparently, a large portion is betrayal). I would think the best you could end up with is Duke of Lesser Darkness or Baron of Western Abomination. More likely, though, is a Lordship, like all the truly evil people.
