Car stolen
Today was a rough day to say the least. First of all I've had a hard time managing myself while being unemployed. It's the worst, there is nothing to do and then I sleep and then my schedule is all out of whack and then I don't exercise as much as I should and then I get depressed. And then I walk outside and my car is missing.
Yeah, its a terrible feeling. Its kinda like when you get to the check out counter at the store and realize you don't have your wallet. Not only that but you remember having it when you left the house and you know its not in the car. The difference is that you have to replace the wallet with your car and the check out counter with the parking lot...yeah, I think that works. Anyways its one of those 'nooo, thats not, no, its gotta be, um, its not gone, one of my family members must have driven it somewhere, or maybe...no, this isn't happening, it can't happen' moments. It's actually one of my biggest fears, second to walking out of the store to find that my car is gone. So I guess that's a bonus right?
I still don't think its set in all the way. I mean the keys are in my pocket, I locked it last night when I got out. How, how could this happen? I mean I was also disappointed because there were things of sentimental value in there. My tennis rackets, my little purple robot man that got fried in the sun last summer, my green rugs, my little McDonalds milkshake man. My GPS, oh Sheila, I will miss so much your accent! Even if they find my car, I know the GPS will be gone, probably my good tennis racket, and also my brown hat that a friend bought me for my birthday 5 years ago. OK maybe the hat will still be in there, but its just sad.
The thing is that as sad as I am its not really that bad, I still went home teaching, still hung out with Jake and Fefi. The car is just a thing, the stuff in it is just stuff. Its been neat to just feel the calmness of it all that comes from knowing the purpose of life and that these trials are momentary. Yeah, its gonna suck for a couple days at the very least. I don't have close to enough money to buy a car right now but you know what, that's OK. Life isn't about smooth sailing and easy answers. It's about learning and handling different situations. I could freak out and think its the end of the world. But there is a calmness that the Spirit brings that just helps you to know things are gonna end up OK. Now I didn't say that I felt like things are gonna end up OK now, things could definitely get worse before they get better but that's life and how its supposed to be. I know everything is in God's hands, seriously I was just talking to Jake yesterday and I said, dude if my car went out right now I would be so screwed, I don't have near enough money for a new car.
I awaken the next day, go outside and realize, I am so screwed.
Maybe its a blessing somehow, I guess time will tell. Sometimes I feel like my emotions are broken or something. I mean you see people on TV freaking out about the stupidest little things, but this happens and I am like 'well this sucks, lets go to A&W'. Obviously I am not saying that to be like 'oh my car is gone? who cares I'll just get another', but I am saying that I almost expected myself to get angry or I'm not sure. I just felt calm, I guess I probably would have freaked out if I didn't have the church in my life. Well I'm done talking about this for today. Happy Holidays guys!

Van Helsinglike Dreamagination
So first off i'll start with the attire, to set the mood. Naturally. Imagine a mix of that trench coat on van helsing and the suit on that swat looking guy, there was also just a black ski mask instead of a helmet but it didn't have a mouth hole and we had black goggles instead of that faceplate...thing. I also had a shotgun hanging from the trench coat and we were loaded with guns and ammo.
Yeah pretty great right. So it starts out and me and this girl with a black ponytail are dressed exactly the same and look identical, with the sole difference that her ponytail is poking out of the back of the ski mask, we are in the middle of a huge hay field on a clear sunny day with a slight breeze blowing past. I assume for visual effect. We walk a few steps and find a trapdoor which was made from old thick and heavy timber, i'm guessing it was about 4ft x 4ft wide, i grabbed the metal ring handle and yanked up the door. My partner immediatly jumped down into the dark.
I heard gunshots and saw the flashes of light from them. I jumped down and we were in a hallway. We ran back and forth across the opening shooting at vampires that were attacking village people in this gigantic dirt room. It was cavernous and looked like i would imagine the inside of a pyramid to look lit with really really bright torches.
I was using an uzi at first but then when that ran out of ammo i switched to the shotgun and then to pistols. Eventually after running out of ammo and having a really cool fight scene, i ran in and noticed that there was just one vampire left. The villagers had her corned with pitchforks and she was hissing at people, i walked over and grabbed three wooden crosses about the size of my hand and juggled them around her. she then turned back to normal. I walked up a really long flight of stone steps and came to a piano in the center of a small room. A man was sitting at one end and there were keys on both sides of this piano. the notes were assembled on top of the piano on little tiles like scrabble pieces. I sat down and he said 'play!' I began to play and after a few notes, made a mistake. He yelled, 'AGAIN!' I tried to play and messed up again, so he yelled 'again' and i tried again, messing up. He yelled 'again' and i quickly arose and yelled back, 'Tell me where dracula went!'
He responded, 'to the west'. then got up and walked away. I went back down the stairs to the village people. I said that dracula had gone west and they fearfully replied, 'that WAS dracula!' I yelled, 'NOOOOO'
Thats it.

Terminator dream
So a few months after the terminator salvation movie came out in theaters i had a weird dream about it. it went something exactly or similar to this.
So it twas a normal day til i had suspicions about my neighbors possibly being oh my gosh i think i have trust issues...sorry, momentary realization there. a lot of my dreams seem to center around people im close to turning on me even though it hasn't happened often. anyways back to the dream. I started checking into it and figured out that they were really terminators, the things the said, the way they moved, just looked a little off. I started looking into a way to kill terminators and found out about a knife that was a harder metal that what the terminators were made of and could cut through and destroy them. I went to work getting one, i think it was coming in a package via FedEx.
I was on my way downstairs to get the package and my brother was being weird, my suspicions about him starting arising, then my dad seemed a bit odd. Pretty soon i questioned the old guy who was at my house for no apparent reason yet i know that he was supposed to be there. There seems to always be one of those people that you don't know, yet it makes perfect sense to you in the dream that they would be there. So i casually head back upstairs and grab my metal tball bat. Tball bats are pretty much clubbing size and i figured i could rock them pretty well with that.
So i head down to the kitchen and just crack my brother over the head and sure enough, his head tilts but he just slowly turns back like nothing happened and punches me like 10 feet away, so then i realize that it was kinda stupid but its too late to change the plan now and i just keep dodging and hitting people in the head as hard as i can. Upon finally waking up, i was tired. No i did not die, i think that my brain just woke me up cuz it realized that the dream wasn't going anywhere. i was trapped, and they couldn't kill me cuz i was too fast, and i couldn't destroy them because they were metal invincible robots. If you've seen a terminator movie you know exactly what i mean.
Eventually i was seeing parts of metal behind their faces, but they were far from injured as machines. so yeah, thats that. Not the van helsing dream but i'll try and throw that one up now.
I really thought i had it written down somewhere. well this could take a bit to write out.

Dream log
Well since i'm pretty sure no one reads this and its too much work to have something like this on a personal journal site, i decided to make this a dream log blog. warning, things get a little outta control.
so last night i had a really weird dream. all i remember is this one part.
keep in mind i would never actually do this.
-so, i walked into a bathroom in some huge office building and there were 2 sinks opposite from eachother on opposite walls like so
wall 1-sink (space) sink-wall2
well there was a lady working on the sink on wall one, and for some reason i thought it would be funny to pee in the sink on the other wall. so i walked over there, turned on the water so she wouldn't notice and started peeing in the sink. why i unbuttoned my jeans is beyond me but they start sliding down. then the lady looks over and asks what i'm doing. awkward. so is say i'm just washing my hands and she goes 'why are your pants falling down then?' i said 'oh' like i hadn't noticed, but neglected to pull them up cuz i was still going. then she keeps asking me what i'm doing, apparently i had to go really bad and i wasn't done yet. so then i woke up.
the end.

Zoey
Oh Zoey, you slay me. Actually its the opposite of that. She heals me. She repairs the bites and bruises faster than anyone I know. But sometimes Zoey I just don't want to be healed. I need to learn these lessons on my own to earn my grand reward. If you continue healing me I may have to put you down, so that you'll heal yourself for a change. It's not personal Zoey, its just that, I need to make it through without anyone's help. Otherwise, the reward is lost. Remember, if it came to it I'd leave you to die alone if it meant victory for me. Don't get me wrong, if I have a clear shot at saving you, I'll take it. But if the going gets tough I'd leave you to rot. Please don't be mad Zoey, you're one of my best friends. Without you living is so much harder. You take some of the hits that may have knocked me down. You pick my up when I fall. But please Zoey, for this one journey, just let me be.
You may be wondering, what is this kid talking about. Who is Zoey and why do they have such a horribly complicated friendship. Well if you are wondering that its because you've never played Left 4 Dead. 2008 Game of the Year. Funnest zombie shooter ever. Now I'm not a 'gamer' anymore, but I can still hold my own. I don't dedicate tons of time to it or anything but its just one of the greatest games ever. Nothing like you and 3 friends stuck in a zombie infested city together and blasting your way out, many times at great cost. I can't even count the number of times I've lost Bill because he couldn't reach the escape vehicle on time. But its what he would want. So hopefully that makes more sense now. Yes I'm talking about a video game character and her name is Zoey, now if you don't have any friends online then you can play with computers as the characters. Now I was trying to earn an achievement which requires me to beat a whole campaign without using a health pack. Difficult, yeah, but I can do it. So Zoey decides that my health is to low and she heals me and ruins my whole plan of beating the campaign without using a health pack. Thanks a freakin lot Zoey, there goes a half hour of my life I wont get back haha.

I can't even count the number of times I've lost Bill because he couldn't reach the escape vehicle on time. But its what he would want. So hopefully that makes more sense now. Yes I'm talking about a video game character and her name is Zoey, now if you don't have any friends online then you can play with computers as the characters. Now I was trying to earn an achievement which requires me to beat a whole campaign without using a health pack. Difficult, yeah, but I can do it. So Zoey decides that my health is to low and she heals me and ruins my whole plan of beating the campaign without using a health pack. Thanks a freakin lot Zoey, there goes a half hour of my life I wont get back haha.

Obama ad
I recently saw an ad on hulu that obama did encouraging fathers to 'spend 15 minutes a day with your kids, that's all it takes'. Wow. OK i realize america sucks at being fathers in general right now, however i think we are setting the standard pretty low at 15 minutes. Then i got to thinking even more, who the heck are they targeting with this ad?! As far as i know hulu gets the most traffic from young adults..who don't have kids. So why are they wasting money on an advertisement like that? I guess they need to waste the money somehow. I understand that for obama maybe he only gets 15 minutes a day with his kids, because he's the freaking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!! Gosh, 99% of dads would easily be able to spend more than 15 minutes with the kids. Oh well, not to hate on obama but that was dumb. I know it was supposed to be a good message, but if you water things down too much it becomes close to worthless. And yes, i will only capitalize the first letter of every sentence, i'm used to word fixing the i's and such.

Jon and Kate
What the heck people? What is going on, I am torn to pieces today to find that my beloved Jon and Kate are very close to getting a divorce. When I heard this, and I saw them talking about it last night on TLC only anger could fill my soul. Such a lovely family, torn apart by, THE MEDIA DEMONS. Yes, its true, the media spares no one.
I have been following this fantastic family since the beginning probably. I have seen almost every episode although I usually just catch the daytime reruns. What the media has done to this family is awful. Do I blame Jon? No. Do I blame Kate? No. Do I blame those awesome little youngsters? HECK no. I blame TLC and People freakin' magazine and all those stupid media monkeys that have to get their decrepit dainty little old asian lady hands with long fingernails in everyones pie. It's gross, it really is. More than that though, it makes me furiously enraged. Why can't you just leave that awesome family alone? What is it about reporting on people that don't need to be reported on that makes you so evil and lude? Why do I want to send a round house kick to each celebrity reporter's friggin' fat head? So many questions, so many round houses to the head.
Seriously, this family was and is great. They have their problems like every family but they were making it. They even allowed a camera crew to follow them around all the time. Until they were betrayed. By the media. Just goes to show people. Just goes to show that these networks and magazines will promise you the world. Then they will offer a breadcrumb and promise it to you if you comply with their demands, and when you try and take it, they'll backhand you like a fat nazi. It's really terrible. This family was just trying to make it, working to make a good life for their kids. They loved eachother. Sadly all it takes is a few rumors. All it takes is a few false accusations, a little fame. Then it all tumbles down.
So pat yourselves on the back you reporters, you haters of happiness, congratulate yourselves on a job almost done. You almost ruined a perfectly good family. It takes a really terrible person to pull of that kind of stunt. Oh, dont worry, it was a team effort by all you crooked paparazzi just trying to make a buck for your next buzz. Spread the blame amongst yourselves. But in the end, I hope you all realize, I hope you realize that you are all to blame for this. Then when you realize that I hope you go home and lay on a pillow, a pillow, full of tacs. When that happens, you're gonna want to get up and take some pain pills, actually open a new bottle and take ALL the pills, then puke it up and you will see your good works soaking into the carpet. I think then and only then will you media people really understand. So I guess what I really wanna say is I hate a lot of different celebrity magazines and a lot of TV stations. Therefore I will also talk about why they are terrible. I'll point out some of their faults as they have tried to do to Jon and Kate.
uh some guy lied about finding papers on president bush on a major network
Ok, thats way to much research for me. You get the point.
Anyways suck on that news media. Leave my Jon and Kate plus 8 people alone!

Chill rock
Alright, there is a type of rock out there that I like to call 'Chill Rock'. Bands like The Killers, Death Cab for Cutie, Coldplay, OneRepublic, and many others. Now there are some good songs by these bands don't get me wrong. The thing I don't understand is how can people listen to it as their main music? I mean sure if you wanted to go to sleep it would be good, or if you wanted time to seem like it was going really slow. Maybe it'd be good if you wanted to calm down after being angry, or if you were excited and you wanted to be bored. But other than those situations that I just described, what is the allure of this substandard art? Its like drinking caramel instead of just having a little with your ice cream. I guess I'm just not a caramel drinker.
For me OneRepublic is easy listening. Their songs vary enough that it doesn't become overly repetative. The lead singer changes his volume and pitch in order to avoid listeners becoming bored. I am the kind of person who can see the good in music that is not necessarily my favorite. For example I hate rap, but I do recognize good rap when I hear it. Likewise with country, it rarely happens but sometimes there is some talent that comes out of the genres. Death Cab is pretty good. My main beef with them is that the lead singer sounds fairly emotionless. Seriously, there is a part in one song where he is obviously dealing with some anger, but he sings like he's bored. Because of the amount of songs released by this group there is obviously going to be some repetitive sound. Its the same with a lot of big bands, Death Cab, Nickelback, Pearl Jam, The Beatles, it happens to the best of them. Coldplay is even a little worse. Actually I listened to 2 different songs and had no idea. There is definitely room for improvement there. They did just win song of the year, but Katey Perry won a grammy as well so thats not saying much, in fact its not saying anything at all really.
Another problem I have with it is the total lack of instruments. Not that necessarily but the bands refusal to master the instrument they play. It's like they played guitar in middle school and thats the best they can do. C'mon guys, you need to learn how to rock. Thats not to say the lyrics of the songs aren't good. Actually many of the lyrics are pretty great. It's the noise that ruins the moment. Most of these bands could put and angry Billy Parksen to sleep without even trying. So, those are my thoughts. Let them pitter patter around in the cranium for awhile, soak up the genius of my word and listen to something that rocks. P.S. the bands I mentioned above do not rock.

Nick and Nora's Infinite playlist
You might be wondering to yourself right now. What is Chris gonna say about this movie? Is he going to tear it down and expose it for the worthless sack of vomit that it is? Is he going to puke because he ate over 1 pound of hamburger meat in one sitting at Sheri's Diner? To answer your question I will start by pointing out some of the lighter and funnier moments of the movie. It wont take long.
So, to sum up the funny parts of the movie. Micheal Cera gets punched in the throat, that was funny. He says that he never washes his pants as he pulls out something he got three weeks ago from his pocket. He does what he can to salvage the show. There are other mildly funny things he does but it wasn't supposed to be a super funny movie so thats what you end up with. I told you it wouldn't take long.
And now for how the movie spiraled into a pit of horribleness. First word of the movie, he drops the F bomb. He is supposed to be a bass player for a gay band of which he is the only straight guy. He can't get over this girl that dumped him and he keeps making her mix CDs that she throws away. Nora finds the CDs and doesn't know who Nick is but loves the music. Blah blah blah they end up meeting and drama and gross gay guy jokes. The movie gets progressively worse as it goes on. I'm not sure what demographic hollywood was going for here but it definitely wasn't anyone that I know. There was a fair amount of unnecessary crappy sexual humor and related things. The plot was worthless. This 90 minute film felt like 3 hours. Not a good three hours like if you were watching a good movie or getting a massage, a horrible three hours like if you were in a torture cage in Vietnam or driving by a sulfur pit over and over. Imagine you are watching Cloverfield, I know its painful to imagine going through that torture again. OK, so steady the camera, remove the monster and ta da, you end up with Nick and Nora's Infinite playlist. Yes, its that bad. Now imagine someone offers to erase all the memories that you have of that movie if you drink a full cup of vinegar mixed with ammonia, I'd take that offer.The movie didn't even have a good plot to start with. Its like they could have made a somewhat decent 20 minute film but instead stretched it to 90 min by throwing in random crap. Like Nora's friend ending up at a gay church thing. OK, I will say, if you think everything that gay people do is the funniest thing in the world, this might be ok to you. The gay aspect of this movie just helped ruin it. The sad thing is if you take all the gay crap out, the movie still sucks. Oh, I must mention that Nick's exgirlfriend looks like a freaky older Miley Cirus, I know, I'm scared too. To finish, you're time would be better spent watching Lifetime than watching this movie. OK, maybe not that bad, but knitting would be more fun and innovative. I hope that they never make a movie like this in the future.
