from the desk of: george washington

hey humans. this is george. sean said that everyone would be interested in hearing about me, so josephine asked me to write a little something about how my life's going lately. since i recently learned how to type, i accepted the challenge. but what to say?
here is the thing: i mostly sleep. because i am a fucking cat.
here are some places i like to sleep:
on josephine
on brian
on guests
in drawers
in the dryer
on the tv
on the computer monitor

other things i enjoy doing include: stretching, walking/perching on tv and computer monitor, looking out windows, trying to escape my apartment, taking really long pees, and scratching bitches.

things i will never do include: save british children, invite clementine or saber over (thanks brian and josephine), forget upton.

i am pretty happy here at 2016 banita street apartment 4, but i wish i could go outside. jo says that she will get me a collar and then we'll see. but jo is a pirate hooker. she feeds me twice a day which is sweet, but i was getting a little hefty there for a while. so now she starves me and makes me run on treadmills. yeah. that's true.

time to go sleep. bye bitches. don't ever forget: I WILL KILL YOU.

HAY!

i'll be in town on the 20th for a few days (minus the 24th and 25th)

who wants to hang out with me?

1/4

for those of you who don't already know, i'm leaving the nasty nac and moving to austin for a few months. i'll be that cool and live with my mom until i leave for new zealand. dru and i are going to open a hostel. yes, you can be jealous. and yes, you will get the same 'friend discount' that everyone else gets. 5%.

right now i'm feeling a little daunted by the prospect of getting a loan and putting all my eggs into remote oversees tourism. but, that aside, i'm in a really good place. dru and i are both committed to Hostel Takeover, and we can make it happen.

sweet name huh?

i'm obviously sad about ending this 6 year stretch, but as many of the authors on this blog know, it is about time. i'm 24. so a 1/4 of my life has been inside this loop. i don't regret staying. even after seeing cotten, dru, lauri, max, kevin, zero, micha, dan and others go, i knew i would leave when it was my time. that time is now. i think this is the waning of my time here and that is the best time to leave. i think i would be bitter and unhappy if i were to see my 7th fall semester begin in nac.

let's talk about epicness. no- fuck talking- let's enact epicness. i want my going away party to be spoken of in the same breath as mabeufapooza, the tickle me elmo craze and the sacking of rome. currently i only have me getting kicked out of the FB on the agenda. but we can work on it over the next few weeks.

This one goes out to all my fellow actors...

Busted!!!

Vinnie Jones, actor and former soccer star, was arrested early Friday morning in Sioux Falls, South Dakota.

According to reports the arrest was to due to an incident at a local bar when apparently Jones got involved in an "extremely bloody fight."


Jones suffered some injuries in the fight. He was smacked in the face with a beer mug causing his nose to bust open during the fight. Jones went to the local hospital for his injuries.

Jones was booked for misdemeanor simple assault and the other individual in the fight was booked for felony aggravated assault.

Vinnie posted a $400 bond and the other guy is still in jail.

For someone with a history of violence, such as when he was found guilty of assaulting a neighbor, let's see if the judge will be lenient on Jones.

New Address

So, I'm now totally moved out of the dorm and into my apartment. I'm pretty happy about it, even though my roommate is mehhhh. I'm particularly happy to have some of the posters from Upton back up - the Big Lebowski and Rush Hold Your Fire poster from the living room, some of the stuff from my room. I threw away that half-naked broad though.

Anyway, I wanted to post my new address for those of you who might want to write me letters and send me things (thanks Sarah, Josephine, Katie! Sorry I fail at writing back. I'll write you letters in January.) such as say, birthday cards, when I get back up here. New address is: 8864 United Lane Apt. 4, Athens, OH 45701.

Also I will be in Texas this weekend. Let us make with the feasting and the merriment!

anyone have any ideas rolling around for a new years eve party yet?

i want to come to nac for new years, but not unless you guys are planning on being there and getting together.

if you all want to carpool and drive 2 hours to Humble, we could have a party there in a big friendly house with lots of space, a fire pit, and beds/couches to crash on. just throwing that out there.

let me know when something transpires.

Journey O'Clock

Last night I was walking down Court Street, the main drag of town, listening to my iPod when I started to hear what sounded like a crowd of people singing. I took off my headphones and looked across the street to discover some 35 people standing on the steps of the Courthouse, singing "Don't Stop Believing". Some of them had Santa hats on, so I wonder if they had been singing carols and then broke into Journey'o'clock.

Pretty sweet moment of my life right there.

the story of the picture

this weekend clementine was visiting me and brian so george was not altogether thrilled. he likes her ok, but he only wants to play with her when she does not really play back. which is not usually clementine's style. she is a hands on friend. or, tongues on.
so as i was about to go to bed i realized i hadn't seen george in a while. i feared that he might be outside (yes he is a domesticated creature now) but knew that he is a good hider so he might bre inside, and that he could handle it if he was outside, and i gave up looking for him.
i went to bed, and before i fell asleep, brian came and brought me to the laundry room. because he had found george. in the dryer. i had left my clothes in there, and the door open, so i guess he decided to make himself at home in there among the clean, yummy clothes. he was cleaning himself and as brian tried to take a picture he got up and started to come out, and thus the picture on the sidebar. <--------
the moral of this story is that george is the CUTEST THING ever.
thank you.

popabowa!

ello.

it's been awhile since i've posted in this so i figured now's the time.

one. i had a dream a couple of nights ago. i guess more of a nightmare than a dream. i've been having lots of crazy dreams lately. but this one tops the list. i was somewhere outside with a lot of strangers and i looked up and perched on a telephone wire was this monkey vampire looking thing. like it was the size of a human, had fur and a tail, and the face of a vampire. first there was just one of them and then a lot more came jumping out of i don't know where, i guess air, and they were all perched like birds. that was basically the dream. i made myself wake up.

two. ryan and i were at heb, standing in line and ryan picks up a tabloid and starts flipping through it. there was a story about my monkey vampires that i just dreamt about. insane. they're called popabowas. and the article had illustrations. EXACTLY what they looked like in my dreams. except these ones had wings. the ones in my dream could have had wings. they just weren't spanned out. seriously. popabowas. the article said they mainly stalk men's dreams. i think mine really tried to get to ryan but instead got me. but seriously, wtf?

three. is anyone else scared, because i am.

four. i've been wanting cowboy boots for awhile now. i was just going to pay way too much for some at some vintage shop, but the world loves me. we walked outside to go across the street to the gas station to buy some cigarettes and there were a pair of black cowboy boots by the dumpster. yes, i took them. yes, they're about one size too big. yes, i'm wearing them right now. with socks, of course. i don't know what kind of weird fungus the previous owner had. but anyways, life loves me and my new boots.

five. i finally started my new job at the restaurant, fiddler's hearth. it's kind of slow right now because it's a new restaurant. but it's cool. and i got to play with medicine balls today. the work out kind. they're heavy. but yeah. come to austin. come to the restaurant and tip me mad.

six. i miss everyone. tons.

seven. this is the first time in my life that i am not going home for thanksgiving. sad. i miss my family.

3. debaser
4. gigantic
5. gouge away

high five to rabbit for graveyard shifts and news reports from the transgender department.

my favorite college professor is writing a book about pop culture and he wants to me read the first two chapters he's written. he's written more, but he just wants my opinion on the first two i guess. i'm pretty much the most excited i've ever been. this guy is the reason i want to be a teacher more or less.

and in 18 days i get to see my family for the first time in 9.5 months. be excited for me.

I MISS YOU GUYS.

Halloween in Athens

So, there was quite a lot of buildup towards Halloween in Athens. It was supposed to bring in 20,000 people from out of town - into a town that was normally only about that size. I'll admit, it was fairly crazy. Nothing on the scale of Mardi Gras; close, perhaps, to 6th Street on a really wild night. But with more costumes. I had a pretty good time - I dressed up as the narrator and had a delightful mustache as previously mentioned.
Around 4pm or so I was in the office in the English building, trying to do some work, and I decided to go get some coffee and see if it was starting to get weird outside. Turns out, they block off the main drag of town early in the day and have bands and such playing. This band was playing "Bulls on Parade" when I walked up. And the lead singer was wearing a Hulk Hogan outfit. Woot.

I eventually went downtown at like 7:30 or so, and it was staring to pick up. I was with my friend Ali and two of her friends - one was in from New York, one was in from L.A. I felt fancy, partying with rich socialites. There were some McCain/Palin supporters on this balcony, yelling down at the people walking by. I couldn't tell if it was a costume or not. Eventually I went to a party being thrown by one of the second-year grad students. There was a band playing in the carport under the house, a fire, pretty girls and lots of drinking. We headed back to the wild block party around midnight, and had probably gotten twice as packed compared to when I had been there earlier. Here are some pictures of some of the people I was traveling around with, one of whom was a Sarah Palin with a sash that said "Miss Alaska" and a shirt that said "Miss Guided, Miss Ogynist, Mistake" on it. And yes, my phone's camera sucks at night pictures. OH WELL.

Heroes has parted ways with co-executive producers Jesse Alexander and Jeph Loeb.
the pair were axed because of NBC’s “frustration with the creative direction of the show.” Financial concerns might have also played a part in duo’s firing;the word is episodes were costing over their $4 million budget.

In Support of the Mustache


I shaved off this beauty this morning. Will be growing out again. People didn't believe it was real last night.

Movember

During Movember (the month formerly known as November) I'm growing a Moustache. That's right I'm bringing the Mo back because I'm passionate about tackling men's health issues and being proactive in the fight against prostate cancer.

To donate to my Mo you can either:

  1. Click this link https://www.movember.com/us/donate/donate-details.php?action=sponsorlink&rego=1827896&country=us and donate online using your credit card or PayPal account, or
  2. Write a check payable to the ‘Prostate Cancer Foundation', referencing my Registration Number 1827896 and mailing it to:

Prostate Cancer Foundation
Attn: Movember
1250 Fourth St
Santa Monica, CA, 90401

All donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law.

The money raised by Movember is donated directly to the Prostate Cancer Foundation which will use the funds for high-impact research to find better treatments and a cure for prostate cancer.

Did you know:

  • Prostate cancer is the most common non-skin cancer in the US with one in six American men developing the disease and more than 28,000 men dying of the disease every year.
  • African American men and those with a family history of prostate cancer are twice as likely to develop the disease and should have regular annual testing starting at 45. All other men should commence testing at 50.
  • Prostate cancer is 90% curable if detected and treated early.

For those that have supported Movember in previous years you can be very proud of the impact it has had and can check out the details at:
[ Fundraising Outcomes ]
.

Movember culminates at the end of month Gala Partés. If you would like to be part of this great night you'll need to purchase a [ Gala Parté Ticket ].

Thanks for your support,

Andrew.

order of shit mabeuf needs

1. Dynamo 3-peat
2. obama/begich victory
3. stevens guilty

well my friends, check off #3!!!!!! stevens was found guilty, and white that is in no way (read:zip zilch zero none) a guarantee of begich's victory on the 4th, it certainly keeps him from head-shot that an innocent verdict would have been.

call and congratulate mabeuf!!

the streets of nacogdoches will run with the booze of today's victory in alaska and the rest of the world!

Nac Attack

I will miss the Halloween Party. If there is some facebook invite for it, I never got it. That doesn't matter, cause I can't go to it. I miss Nac. I miss my friends.

I just wrote a poem about zombies

I'm thinking of turning it in for workshop next week, but I'm not sure.

Somebody's Always Killing Their Loved Ones

When the zombies come for us,
with their rotten meat stench and paralytic shuffle,
I'm afraid we'll have to break up.
Not because I'll feel less of an attraction to you
or we'll argue about who gets to use the chainsaw,
but because I know that we'll inevitably be locked
in a room together in some abandoned warehouse,
strip mall, or grocery store. And you know how it is
in the movies, when the intrepid survivors find themselves
trapped in a room, doors and windows securely boarded up -
somebody, a mother, a best friend, a lover, is always hiding
the fact that they've been bitten.
I'd rather succumb to the zombie hordes outside and let
myself become a part of the mindless zombie oblivion
than have to kill you. Or, if I'm the one lying about the blood
seeping through the leg of my pants, I wouldn't want
you to shoulder that burden.

Yes, I know that our self-preservation instincts will overcome
our love for one another. You'll trip over something grotesque
and I'll think for a minute of saving you, maybe, but the zombies
will be right behind us. Better you just head north, and I'll make
for the coast. In a few years after this all blows over,
perhaps we'll agree to meet in Poughkeepsie and talk about old times
and laugh about how stupid those zombies were.

For those of you who care

My captor was sentenced yesterday.
It's been a long week.
I'm ready for bed.

here

miss you guys.

thank goodness for humor



these guys are awesome. i would've just gotten angry. they saw the complete and utter lack of brains in this dude and decided to poke some fun at him. he's worthless, meaning not worth getting my undies in a bunch over. unfortunately, i have temper issues.

stupid experience

I didn't get ANOTHER job I interviewed for. It was a grad research assistant job where I'd do research and co-facilitate a training program for teen parents.

I didn't have as much experience as some other applicant.

CRUSHED.

I am so sick of being a fucking writing tutor. I hate it. I've outgrown it or it's outgrown me, whatever. I need something more related to counseling and helping others (with LIFE problems, not writing papers).

I hate life at this moment.

I want to cry, but I'm at my stupid writing center job, where I make very little money and am beginning to hate every stupid fucking freshman and ESL student that walks in here. Fucking bucket heads.

I want a beer.

some quotes from my house last night

the whole time i'm trying not to say anything.

"the daily show is actually more conservative than the colbert report"

"no, the colbert report is. colbert is really the most conservative person on tv, and he's just fooling everyone."

about palin "i don't like 'that' woman. not that i'm anti-women, but i don't like her......if a woman is president, i'm moving to canada."

and then i kinda had to focus on my mouth staying closed.

i'm andrew and i'm dumb

last night on the history channel they had "Monster Hunters: Giant Squid", needless to say i stayed up till 1 when it was over. I love the shit out of squid, especially after one almost killed the annoying dive supervisor. but unfortunately i am one of the worlds leading researchers on the the buggers, so there was only a bit of new info for me. UNTIL i saw the next show was "Monster Hunter: Giant Spider". Now, if 100ft squid arnt your thing, what about 5 foot wide tarantulas that EAT DOGS. Granted, unless you live in the jungle/rainforest you wont have to worry about that...

Serious question, guys.

What the fuck should I be for Halloween? This is more important than in years past; I feel an obligation to step it up given the importance and general debauchery of Halloween in this town. So far the only idea I've given any consideration is something we were talking about in the office, going as literary concepts. I was thinking of being The Narrator and dressing somewhat fancy and narrating everything that goes on around me all night. Until I get punched in the face.


halp plz

this looks like it will be pretty cool

Funny Stuff I Found



Also, this article


Memorable lines include:

"I got a decent sample anyway: half men, half women, half white; a third were over 50, and I'm pretty sure 12% were gay, even if 4% were probably denying it to themselves."

"I was told by the very nice election-board workers that in-person early voters come in two varieties: the superinformed and the people Obama supporters pick up off the streets and throw into a van. You can tell the difference mainly by smell."

Enjoy.

Ohio, Autumn

I've always enjoyed what I think of as "Fall" - slightly crisper air for about one week a month in October and November, the occasional windiness, pumpkin carving and pumpkin pie. Now that I live in Ohio, however, I have truly experienced the transition to Autumn. Trees light up for a short, but wonderful, burst of color, a festival of lights in miniature. I now understand what the point of a Fall Foliage Tour might be - an experience that should I desire to undertake is available out of Athens by train. Apparently it's kind of boring, though, because it goes in a straight line and back, instead of a circle.

The weather has been consistently chilly; the days that I'm not forced to wear a hoodie, it gets up to maybe the mid-eighties range. Those days are pretty rare though. This is the kind of cold weather I like, and I realize now that in the past when I've claimed that I prefer the cold to the heat, this is the cold I was thinking of. I honestly have very little scope of what I'm going to be getting into in the winter here. I have the feeling that once I'm in it for a few months and forced to be up to teach at nine in the morning, I'll not enjoy the cold as much as I once thought. For now, I'll enjoy the "cold" weather and beautiful surroundings while I can still get away with not wearing a hat and gloves. I hope you enjoyed this little reflective piece/minor update on my life in Ohio. HERE ARE PICTURES.

reading and ego-entrism

do you apply most things you read to your own life? (brian, i know you don't read.. you can skip this, or insert "watch" and "movie" for "read" and "books")
i do. maybe this is good, and helps me process information/plots, and also my own feelings/happening, and maybe it's bad, and keeps me from delving into other characters instead of "losing myself on books" which is i think the point of some books. and movies.
anyway. i just finished reading the poisonwood bible and it made me think of sam a lot. first of all, it criticizes religion a lot, which obviously sam was down with. secondly, the loss of a character and the reaction of others (no i'm not giving anything away- it's mentioned pretty early on) was remarkably similar in many ways to my experience with sam's death. mostly the part where they have to tell another character about it. granted, it was in africa. and the person did not die in nearly the same way. but still. i think death and the reactions to it are pretty universal. they differ in manifestation but not really in the basics.
i know this is vague, but i think everyone should read the book and i don't want to give it away. and i know it's sad, but i have come to the conclusion that i should be less afraid to make people feel sad when i talk about it because i effing need to talk about it. anyway, i kind of had to get that out, because i finished the book and had to go directly to class and take a quiz so it wasn't really enough processing time.
thanks.

if you dont understand why the word blizzard gives me a boner than this link isnt for you

making sure there's a headline

i wish i had my camera because right now i'm sitting across from this guy at ziggy's and he's wearing these jeans up to his man-boobs, a hawaiian shirt tucked in and then a women's sunhat.

needless to say, i am cracking up.

also, i don't know if i'll be able to go to nac for halloween. the school i work for is having some fall fest or something and i'm having a hard time getting out of it because i'm "such a joy to work with."

jaja.

thank you, christian moviegoers.

BRIAN.

Hey Sean

Have you seen this article about Google's safeguards against drunk emailing?

Google Stops You from Sending Mail You Will Regret

I thought of you when I read this because you have talked up the excellence of Google in the past.

A dance song for the end of the world



"Sure, I know it's apocalypse
But can't it wait til I kiss your lips?"

Can we please have an Apocalypse themed party sometime when Mike is back in the country, er, I mean, Texas?

guess what, evil?

this girl finally got herself a job! it's at this irish restaurant/pub place called fiddler's hearth. so hopefully i can come to san marcos soon. i don't start till the 18th, so it might be a little while till i can come cause i'll have to pay rent and stuff but soon after that, i promise!

other than that, life is good. i'm sitting at clementine's coffee bar watching harold and maude on the patio, drinking a beer.

thanks brian

i like turtles

best moment of my day? using "godammit donnie, you're out of your element" in perfect context to my coworker.

i think we need a new social contract. i mean, honestly...when was the last time anyone thought about revising the old lass... french revolution? communism? i feel like im watching a dogfight: politicians are the dogs, ceo's are the gamblers, and the rest of us are zombies.

Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals

Why George Lucas?

I just read an article in which Harrison Ford admitted that they are planning a fifth Indiana Jones movie. Why can't they leave our childhood alone?

I'm beginning a job as a waitress this week. I have never waited tables before, but I have to go through a really thorough training program first. I'm so nervous. What if I drop a tray? Or spill something all over my customers?

It has cooled down a lot here in Dallas which is very exciting for me. Autumn is my favorite season. I feel inspired and ready for change.

What are you guys looking forward to in the next few months? I mean, besides Halloween which is the greatest holiday ever.

who?

some of you may have noticed that i haven't been around very much in the last few weeks. i'm at once trying to save money and travel every weekend (as it turns out). so my time at the FB is being sacrificed. i'm also going to substitute playing video games for social interaction. that being said- i love you all.
