what day is it, and in what month? this clock never seemed so alive.

not much new going on en el mundo de mio. next week is fall break which is odd, because at the same time this week is fall break. both UK and BCTC (formerly LCC) have opted to take fall break at different times. i guess BCTC is officially wean itself out from under the massive teet that is UK, but somehow this little step seems as childish to me as Bush's push for the use of the expression "freedom fries". other things they have done, changed their name to bluegrass community technical college, hence BCTC, as well as change all the course number abbreviations. mostly adding the letter J and the number 0 to the front of them.
i am supposed to go out st. louis way to visit mike for my week off from school, although i've run into some dilemmas. most of which involve me not wanting to put so many miles on the car that i'm using that is not my own, but in fact belongs to my mother. i'm not sure she would appreciate it all that much, especially if i racked up all those miles not coming to see her instead. so maybe what i'll do is come back a day earlier and stop at my mom's and spend it there before coming back to work, although, in all reality, i mean come on let's just be honest with ourselves, that's not likely to happen.
there are so many movies out and so many new video games yet unplayed that have been released in the recent months since school went back into session. i still don't own a copy of pump it up, or the new ddr extreme 2 for ps2, now with online capabilities. i know how sad that sounds, but i actually use them mostly for cardio workouts, cause they are good for that, mostly. i also do it so that i can pwn others at video game arcades. take that you noobs! but regardless as a result, i definitely need to get back into a second job. i'm currently looking into a business venture of sorts. it seems somewhat secure, reasonably risk-free and very inexpensive. so i'll attempt that when i return from my trip. if it doesn't work out, i'll be out 50 bucks. however, if it manages to be an effective methoud of money making, i'll be swimming in new video games and dvd in no time. plus i'll have plenty of money left over to go to spain for christmas.
oh yeah, i guess that's kind of news, the Navidad en Espana tour. i have a friend that is over there now, for the next year or so. so it's kind of a "going to cheer him up from being so far away from everybody" trip, and it's kind of a "i'm a selfish bastard and i really want to see madrid" trip. i'm guessing it's more of the latter. i've got a link his blog on here for anyone who is interested, that is depending on how good your spanish is. if nothing else, there is always babelfish, that works somewhat if not grammatically, at least word for word.
