its not a tumah!

i am becoming more and more of a computer nerd. tonight i created an itunes account and purchased an album by a pianist named lang lang. apparently he is pretty phenomenal and is incredibly young. isnt it weird how so many awesome talents/athletes/musicians are child phenoms? i can always dig some really good classical music. especially when it can mellow me out and relax my mind. that goes for jazz and blues too. and old school like chuck berry. mmm yeah. music makes me think of a hypnotic potion, something that can affect everyone in absolutely different ways at the same point in time. the way it can drastically alter one's mood or state of mind, bring up memories of a person or place (whether good or bad), and break someone down makes it a powerful tool. i wonder if bush had tried to play that horrible romanian ozone song over the mountains of afghanistan day and night bin laden would just walk out of his cave screaming in pain. its worth a shot.

when i said before how vicodin wasn't working too well. i think i may have lied. the past few nights i have been taking 2 shortly before bed. and ill tell you what, that stuff has been knocking me out. and i have been having some vibrant dreams. some a little weird and fueled by certain things going on in my life, but just very 'real' feeling. incredibly strange. i will inevitably have to wean myself from them as time goes by. i also haven't tried this ultram stuff yet. anybody know anything about it? i know i can take it with vicodin, but i am skeptical if it is really going to mess me up. maybe another evening when i am really hurting. probably next monday after my apointment with the orthopedist.

about time i stopped procrastinating on this take-home exam and went to bed. i do believe we are approaching the 2 weeks of classes left mark on my calendar. im incredibly excited. also might wind up helping out my friend during the tour of shenandoah driving the team car. that would be pretty awesome. we'll see if it works out. id like to help in any way i can because i owe him big time.
