livin' on a prayer

well, here goes the third (yes...third) attempt to create a post today. the first two attempts were foiled by a stupid attempt to make one of my word's bold. apparently the "b" button in the upper left corner doesn't stand for "bold." yep, i'm pretty sure it stands for "button that is going to @!)(*@! piss me off." stupid technology. you see, if i was just writing in a journal all i would have to do is push a little harder with my pen to make something bold. i could even trace over my letters a few times to make it darker. but, you see, here in 2005, you have to hit the so called "bold" button so that your entire freaking post is erased. then there's the "recover post" button. oh yes, let me tell you about that button. i'd love to tell you what it does, but i don't know yet myself. i thought it might "recover" my "post" that the bold button so conveinently erased, but it didn't. i think it actually tried to insult me. screw you blogger.com. i swear, if this post gets messed up, well, actually, i'm probably going to do nothing, but i'll certainly want to do something rash.

ok, i don't care that (i want to italize the word "that" but i'm afraid of what might happen, so just pretend like it's italized.) much. i just thought it might be fun to overreact (not sure if that's one word) and rant for a little while. on to something else.

today was good. i cleaned things and unpacked stuff. had dinner with friends, and drank a few good beers.

looking forward to tomorrow. the music building is going to be open, and i'm going to practice. yay! it's time for james start kicking ass at the bass trombone so he can go to eastman.

with that, i think i'm off to bed.

love,
james
