Hows my little mover?

currently in the moving out/in process its fantastic.

the new house is big, i'm not sure what to do with all of the space, but it is a very welcome change compared to ol 819

Jason and I rented a UHaul all by ourselves yesterday. I feel like a big boy now.

slept in my new King bed for the firs time las night, and it was the first time in a year my feet did not dangle from the end of the bed....HURRAY!!

been pretty reclusive lately, but my wings will open again after i get mostly moved in....hopefully tonight.

currently being 'lent' someone's internet....not sure if that will last its insanely slow.

Hows my little all-over-the-place?

airports are funny, it takes an unheard of amount of security to get into them...but after you get out of the 'secure zone' to pick up your baggage....people (not even 'safe' people) are still on the honor system in grabbing whoevers luggage is handy.

have you ever looked at your religion from the outside and thought about it as how it could be thought of as cultish? i took a step back from the catholic faith this past week and kind of spooked myself. I suggest trying yours. hm

i really hate drama, i hate when i tell people mine too, it makes me mad that i have some, and have let something bother me enough to bitch about.

Indiana was great, I love my family. Jon twas good to see you

it was wonderful to see the smiles I saw today, ill be back soon to see everyone elses smiles saturday.


Travelin' Tony Out!

Hows my little relaxant?

It really takes a vacation to appreciate life.

Walked down by the wabash with my dad yesterday, I got to see the rest of my family too.

And my dog, god we missed each other, he is in a sunbeam right now.

The new house has lots of windows, and sky lights too, its very wonderful.

hows my little conundrum?

my PC is dead....
thank god i have my laptop for the meantime.

this puts me in a bit of a sticky wicket though.
Because I want to get the a new mac pro in about a year...not in a month to replace my current PC
now a broken current PC, which is pretty lame.
I can replace a broken motherboard and most likely the ram in it for about 200-400$
or i can get the new mac pro for 2500...


in other news i found a house, anyone in duluth need a place to live?
we need a 4th roomie.

off to indiana tomorrow morning, yipee!!!

Hows my little high flyer?

the airport situation is getting crazy
When i fly to indiana next week i think ill just wear two pairs of shorts and three shirts (ditching bags all together) and put my ipod and game boy in the pockets and drop the shorts in the box they give me for my laptop and shoes.

I was inspired today to create one of my worst photoshop creations...but still shows what the future may hold for us at the airport.

I call it:

How to pack for air travel in 2012

Pack for Airport

thats right, naked and one shirt for a carry-on. (hopefully people don't continue with the obesity trend)

Also, women around the world are trapped "looking ugly" today because the airport is throwing away all of their cosmetics.
THANK GOD, women need to stop relying on powders to make themselves look better, and instead just buy their guy another drink (or three)...

Every




Single




Day

its a proven and legal method of beautification. ask anyone.

Hows my little failing economy?

I understand most of you don't read/watch/or listen to the news, minus MTV's 'news'. Partially because its always, bad news. So, here is the sum of the world right now.

Bush vetoed his first bill ever, hindering any new stem cell research in the us
Blair our British friend said hey come over to England, we love stem cells!
There is a 'new' war between Israel and Lebanon.
But not really Lebanon, it is a militant group supported by Syria and Iran
Hezbollah is what the militant group is called, who are not related to Al-qaeda
Buuuuut some lines can be drawn to the Hamas (ruling party if Iran)
Hugo Chavez also really likes Iran, AND Korea for fighting against the US in the 50's
Castro got sick, his brother is running Cuba, Florida rejoiced.
And in the US news, the economy is doing better than it was.
Which is still shitty, between the federal debt and the trade debt
last year's trade deficit was like 415(ish?) billion this year is only around 400 billion
that is down from Clinton's projected 300 million surplus
we are creating uncertainty in the world, as our dollar plummets.....


which leads me to my link for today, I think everyone who ever reads this blog in the next few days should read this link, it is an article on the BBC about the us economy, it does a good job of explaining simply how the dollar gains and looses value around the world. Since the dollar is mostly losing its value its a little negative, but still very informative as to how US money flows around the world.

oh....and Britney and K-Fed are doing well, I guess.

Hows my little better bear?

hows my little astranger?

So while I was sick I was like god all I want to know is how it feels to feel normal. today for like 87% of the day I felt normal, and it was very normal feeling. and that really made me comfortable.

so while I was recovering from being sick I bought flogging molly's cd/DVD album. My official review: I like flogging molly lots so I like it, but if you don't own any of their other albums go get those instead, its one new track, a few acoustic versions of popular songs (drunken lullabies is kind of funny how slow it is) and then some live recordings.

as for the DVD I found it very inspiring. I really just want to drop life and go another direction, but I have made it too far and spent too much to realistically do that now. but I want to.

So ever since I started looking for colleges I wanted to study abroad. Ever since I started looking for colleges I just wanted a change, bemidji definitely provided one for me, but not the right one, I met lots of great people there and still love them, but not the right place for me. Duluth has been really cool its been nice to experience 'city' life.
I am still craving that change though. I want to get out and see the world.
when people ask me what I am going to do after college I give em two answers. haahahahaha....eehhhh well I don't have a clue, followed by well ideally I would land a sweet internship or job somewhere and move on but...ya never know.
But..
Really I just want to go somewhere else, talk to strangers, take pictures, document my travels. poke around in shady places, camp, leave the USA, see the ocean, hike a mountain, traverse a crevasse, go to Italy or even south America, see European art, meet interesting people for a day or a week. I aspire to be a nomad. I am not opposed to saving money just to do that for as long as the cash lasts. I want to work odd jobs, I want to sling fish in a market, not shower for a week because I don't have access to one.


And I want to do it alone.

nothing against you or anything, but its what I want to do. I don't want someone to say, tony this isn't a good idea or, hey lets do this instead of that, I wanna do my own thing.

so that's that, go me...someday
