Hey hey Kids,

Ok, I said I was coming back and I did. I am trying out a new idea, so if you would all please direct your attention to the left side of your screen. That is my "YOU HAVE BEEN CHALLENGED" box. Whenever I feel like it, I will post something there, and you all are going to jump to try and please my sick fettish. Oh, and if you don't jump high enough, we are going to be here all night until you get it right.
So, yesterday was a good day. It began with me sitting in the HKN office for 2.5 hours for the purpose of tutoring. No one shows up, so its more or less forced studdy. After this, I went out to eat with my friend Mary-Ellen to a Tex-Mex place near North station called "Viva Barrito". I thought there was supposed to be a 'le' or a 'la' or something in there, but whatever. After that we walked to Gov-center (so amazingly close) and then went back to NU and kicked everyone elses asses by finnishing a crazy long lab in one week. I then met Mike at Kenmore and we went to eat at the Bertuchis right there (He had never been to a Bertuchis! EVER!! [Insert Outrage here]).
We then went to see how Jillians shaped up. It is now, officially the sexist lounge I have ever been to. They cleared out all the arcade machines and replaced them with a field of pool tables (When we went it was $10 an hour). The floor is huge and is a beautiful deep red. We didn't get to see upstairs because they aren't %100 done up there, but there is going to be a bowling allie up there. The final thing I must note about this amazing Jillians Metemorphesis is that right when you get in the door, to your right, there is a massive lounge area with tables and couches and comphy chairs and all the lounge sexyness that I have been missing in my life. This section is boardered on two sides with a huge wall of nothing but TV's all tuned into different sports channels.
At 7:00P.M. the doors to axis opened up and we met a friend of Mikes and his girlfriend. Socialized a bit. A band (?) called "Fawns Fables" came on, and besides the fact that everytime she hit a high note her voice broke, it was cool. Apparently "Fawns Fables" and "The Sleepy time Gorrila Museaum" are touring together and I honesly could not tell you who was from one band and who was from another. "The Sleepy time Gorrila Museaum" came on and was quite an experience. The lead singer was creapy in a sort of Jeasus/Satin sort of way. There was a girl that played the violin and sang, but I honesly didn't know if she was 15 or a midget. She also had creapy face paint on, so she reminded me of that girl from the original "night of the living dead movie". You know who I'm talking about. The girl who had diabeaties or something and then died and then killed her mother with a shovel, so she could come back and they both ate the crazy father? Yea.....
So, The Dolls came on a little before 10:30. I was moved. The songs are so So SO much better live and more than half of them I had never heard before. Apparently Amanda and Brian where having a long jump competition (I honesly don't know if they were kidding or what) right before the show, and Amanda actually busted the back of her dress. She also brought three bottles up with her when she began preforming, one was water. They played. People sang. Brian became more and more naked as the night went on. Amanda became more powerful and gestured more. When they played "Half Jack", they brought their sign language girls out onto frount stage and had them really be part of the show. One of them was a very confident signer and she wore a poket-dot dress, so I called her Poket-dot doll. The other signer's make-up was splotchy, and she was wearing a slip, and was always watching Poket-dot doll for the pace. I called her Broken Doll. The song "port-of amstradam" was amazing because Brian played guitar and Amanda was gesturing with her full beer over the crowd. They finnished, bowed, left. We cheared them back. They played two songs. They finnished, bowed, left. Everyone got up to leave. Lots of people left. They came back to play one more song, and then they were done. Mike said that he really liked the show. We walked back to NU so I could try and get my back-pack. It was locked, no harm, no fowl.
I'm looking forward to the Dropkick Murphies concert tommorow. I am not looking forward to the midterm I am going to have tommorow. The rest of this weekend will probably be tech writing and electronics.

A couple of last minute anouncements:
-Ok. So, anyone interested in White water rafting let me know by March 20th (Next saturday kids)
-The challenge is still up. Please let me know what you think of it and of the whole periodic challenge thing.

Ok, so thats it. I'm sorry I couldn't spend any time with you this week Skye, and I hope your vacation didn't suck. The same goes to Matt and Bill, but at least I know Matt is enjoying the movies I lent him, and Bill is probably enjoying his Sports Illistrated Swim suit edition (if you know what I mean).

Take care kids
