vegas fell through. talked to bobby burgess:

Diognossus: my vegas plan has died. it turns out i need a car.

cellsdividing: always a factor

Diognossus: greyhound would take too long. feet can only go so far. and i cannot afford a bicycle.

cellsdividing: hitchhike

Diognossus: i'm not as brave as you. tried craigslist.

cellsdividing: i wouldn't hitch hike either

Diognossus: you just want me chopped into bits.

cellsdividing: no no

Diognossus: arrested?

cellsdividing: nah

Diognossus: i keep telling myself that i'll have enough money by may, that i can go then, but it feels like i have to go now.

cellsdividing: sell your video games

Diognossus: been there, done that.

Diognossus: right now i have: a bed, some books, hamster.

Diognossus: the hamster is lined up to be sold.

cellsdividing: nobody wants hamster

cellsdividing: +a

Diognossus: -a +s

Diognossus: a girl with green hair a few towns over seems keen on him.

Diognossus: and his paraphenelia.

cellsdividing: you can do it

Diognossus: i can certainly try

cellsdividing: but then what in vegas?

Diognossus: i've found that one of my favorite reasons to travel is girls.

Diognossus: and there is a girl in las vegas who i need to see again.

cellsdividing: girls are a factor, yes

Diognossus: then there is the girl in florida. boston. wales. i will have to make a raffle soon.

cellsdividing: work it so they come to you

Diognossus: that is a clever angle, but nineteen living in his parents basement is not the most appealing thing to visit.

cellsdividing: oh yeah

cellsdividing: that was my problem too

cellsdividing: i remember now

Diognossus: haha.

cellsdividing: learn from my mistakes

cellsdividing: move out now

Diognossus: go to college, too?

cellsdividing: you can wait on that

cellsdividing: however

cellsdividing: i bet there are girls there

Diognossus: wait indefinitely most probably.

Diognossus: yes, that is very likely. but college does not afford the opportunity to leave sporadically.

Diognossus: i can always find a new job. you pay for college.

cellsdividing: and therein lies the paradox

Diognossus: i also have a digital camera but of course, i could never sell that.

cellsdividing: get a digital slr

cellsdividing: you can sell off lenses when desperate

Diognossus: tell me what slr means, i have not been able to find out on my own. linked to professional photographers is all that i can make of it.

cellsdividing: it's a type of camera that takes interchangable lenses

cellsdividing: the letters stand for single-lens reflex but that's doesn't really mean too much

Diognossus: are they less expensive because of this, the cameras themselves? cellsdividing: they're usually on the higher end of the price range

cellsdividing: but often the lenses cost more than the camera body

Diognossus: right now i am rocking a kodak easyshare with 3x zoom; i'm selling it and buying a better model.

Diognossus: i'm keen on the canon rebel because i am still a newbie.

cellsdividing: that works too

cellsdividing: that's what i have

Diognossus: really? is it an slr?

cellsdividing: yeah

Diognossus: that's like two paychecks just for the camera. what kind of memory card does it take?

cellsdividing: flash card

Diognossus: ah. i think i'll stick with something that will take an SD/MMC. i have a gig one.

cellsdividing: good size

Diognossus: expensive size, but i figured if i was going to be away from something i could upload onto for months at a time that'd be the way to go.

cellsdividing: yup

Diognossus: where are you now?

cellsdividing: in my room

Diognossus: still in san francisco, i mean?

cellsdividing: yup

Diognossus: i read about your yearly income. that is impressive.

cellsdividing: up from 6,000-something in 2003

Diognossus: my income last year was at no-thousand. more work is in order. and less squandering. i spent over $2000 dollars on video games and wound up with only $300 to show for it.

cellsdividing: i only have ps2 and madden 05

cellsdividing: that takes up enough of my time

Diognossus: i have been thankful that my dad owns a gamecube lately.

Diognossus: mariokart for hours, beating my own time records.

Diognossus: way better than sleeping.

Diognossus: how the las vegas girl came back into the picture: i bought salvia divinorum from some website, smoked it, hallucinated, and went to sleep. my dreams, two of them, were: 1.) dreamt that i received $65 dollars in the mail. 2.) i dreamt that she lost her boyfriend.

Diognossus: i woke up and found sixty five dollars.

cellsdividing: my tax return is 64 dollars

cellsdividing: it's a sign!

Diognossus: indicating something!

Diognossus: (also, she did lose her boyfriend)

made me feel better.
