I'm tired

September 24 2005
I've been sleeping...but I'm still tired. Why?

Today I ran, cleaned house, ate, and am now filling out a graduation application...I'm so efficient.

My Braves are about to come on...I haven't sported a Braves hat in a while, so I think I have to get one...after all, we are winning the World Series this year...5 games until 14 in a row...haters...stoopid Boston and Yankees fans. WHOA OH OHOHOH...OHHH...OH OHOHOH...

[I'm making the tomahawk motion with my arm as I chant...]

Okay, now I have to go do a grad app. This was fun though.

see y'all.

ShawnB sickness update

September 21 2005
ShawnB is still in Amory...I got in touch with him earlier today (thru facebook, oddly enough) and he said he'd been on a cold, flat table for about and hour and half this morning, while the docs ran tests on him, specifically his gall bladder today. Anyhoo, all his tests so far are negative for any problems, and he says the docs say they've run every test they can think of...and the verdict is that he got a fairly acute case of food poisoning. But he told me to let everyone know that he's still alive, and that he'll be back. It's good that he's out of the hospital already, he only stayed in for one night and part of the next day. My bro had the same thing once (coupled with dehydration) and was in the hospital for over a week and lost over 20 lbs...so B isn't in that dire a situation. So, he's on the upside, it just may take him a while to make it back.

Laura, Jonseal, Superman...holla at Molly if you get a chance. She's from that good ole Amory stock, hehe.

Breaking News II

September 21 2005
I have taken a shower today.

However, afterwards I drifted into a two hour nap...I've had two people tell me recently that I look like crap because I haven't been getting enough sleep, and I'm sure they're right, because I haven't. So I need my beauty sleep.

So, I took a shower, but my hair is kind of nappy.

I feel good after the nap though, so the rest of the day will be devoted to reading for my seminar which is tomorrow, finding some dinner, and watching the season premiere of LOST (awesome). Sounds like a plan to me.

Also, I haven't had a shower today.

Furthermore, I have all As in Dr. Sullivan-Gonzalez's class, a 96, 92, and 94 respectively. Get off me.

Finally, I'm awesome.

RRRRRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAH.

It's a beautiful day in the neighborhood!

Mr. Rogers was the man. Do y'all know that he was a sniper, and that the reason he always wore sleeves was because he had tattoos all up and down his arms? Yes, it's true. Mr Rogers was a baller.

Gotta go eat now....hongry

bom bom bombombom bombombom bombombom

September 19 2005
In case you didn't notice, the bombomboms are the sound of the drums from The Last Of The Mohicans.

Just wanted to say 'my bad' to jonseal and laurabee for not acknowledging your remarks; we haven't had the net at my house for a few days.

Jon, sometimes I wish I was an only kid...hehe

LBR, yay-yuh, he'll be okay. He's just a different sort of cookie. I can't imagine operating the way he does, but he always seems to manage.

Holla at you peeps later, this spacebar on this keyboard in the library is sticking and is really loud and annoying to all. HOLLLAAAAAAAAA

My Peeps

September 15 2005
Shawn Brannon told me today that he's so sick he's heading back to Amory to hit up the doctor and they might hospitalize him. I know he's well enough to drive, cause I offered to cart him back (miss class for good reasons!)...he said he's been having stomach issues and vomiting and whatnot, but I don't think it's too serious. Anyhoo, keep him in your thoughts.
My bro called and unloaded a lot of stuff last night...he's making some major life-changing decisions...dunno how the Mom is gonna take it. She's kind of in her own little world anyway (crazy). It feels like I'm the parent sometimes. Makes me not want kids....hehe. Good thing MY SHOULDERS ARE BROAD! BOOYA!
The hours spent talking with the bro were supposed to have been for reading, but oh well. Just have to wing the paper and the discussion tomorrow, and then Friday I'm doing something fun. Don't know what, but it AIN'T gonna involve school. Leave any suggestions in me digital drop box. Peace, peoples.

Leo July 23-August 22

Leo is represented by the lion. It is a fire sign ruled by the Sun emphasizing magnetism. Characteristics of Leo energy include optimism, creativity, generosity, pride, overbearing, cruel, pretentious, and boastful.

Heracles (a Greek hero of epic renown) was made to undertake 12 labors as punishment for crimes he committed in his youth. Heracles' First Labor was to quickly find and destroy the Nemean Lion, a monster that had plagued Nemea for some time and was believed impossible to kill. His arrows bounced off, his sword broke, and finally he decided to use brute strength. He wrestled the lion, strangled it and skinned it using its own claws. The spirit of the once-dangerous lion, Leo, was placed in the sky as a thing of beauty.

Leos were born to lead and are most effective when in a position of command. Leos are straightforward, uncomplicated individuals who know what they want and pursue it with enthusiasm and a creative spirit. Leos possess a strong positive nature and don't shrink from adverse circumstances. They are not easily daunted, and will persist through the most formidable circumstances.

Leos are proud people, with an idealistic and humane nature. They are basically outgoing, happy, kind and generous. Self expressive, intelligent and broad minded, they are philosophically inclined. They tend to be stubborn, and will hold onto a belief, or stick to a course of action through thick or thin. They are direct and to the point and lead with their emotions. Because of their positive nature, they tend to expect the best, and when things don't turn out as they had expected, they react immediately and badly. Quick tempered, blunt and nasty when they have been affronted, they are deeply hurt by malice or hostility. Although, they may suffer from short bouts of depression when life doesn't meet their expectations, they bounce back quickly and move on with their normal cheerful and demonstrative nature. Leo walks forward always, head held proudly and face turned towards the sun.

Origins In Mythology
To our ancestors, the qualities of the Lion were associated with rulership and divinity. Wherever this animal was encountered, its characteristics were attributed to gods and goddesses. For many cultures, the symbol of a lion serves as a guardian. Lion figures stand fast against darkness and evil intent in the doorways of palaces, temples, and in the rituals of the Chinese New Year. It is not hard to recognize some of these same attributes in those born under the Sun sign of Leo.

Notable Leos: Jacqueline Kennedy, Napolean Bonaparte, Bill Clinton, Mick Jagger, Amelia Earhart, Arnold Schwarzenegger, King Louis XIV, Heath Capps

BOOYA!

The Return of the Heefus from Pascagoula

September 12 2005
So, we made it back safe and sound, and I'm pretty happy with what we did down there. Chris and I were talking late Friday about how we didn't want to waste our time, and I don't think we did. LAURA! USE us again if you need us...we are your workers for hire...sort of like mercenaries, except we don't kill people. We cut sheetrock...and do other manly things...like chew chewing tobacco.
I took my art test this morning and made a high B or low A (I'm always on the cusp, I can't ever just make like a 96 or something. Always has to be 88, 91, 92). Anyway, it's cool. I didn't study for it that long and don't really pay too much attention in class.
Now I'm gonna go take a nap in my bed, and wake up and run some errands. Y'all be good.

Tracing, by John Mayer (I love me some lyrics)

September 07 2005
Do you ever get the feeling that we've started in the middle?
Or have you ever had the sense that we've been lying just a little?
I mean come on
It's not like we've known ourselves that long...
And I can't say I really blame you
For being bored with the beginning
Always staring at the score
To figure out who's barely winning
But don't you know
There is a reason strong moves slow...
And I'm okay
If you're okay, with wasting time
But when you trace
You always see the bottom line
We are tracing, I hope you know
We are tracing
And if you wanna know the moment
I knew that I was still alone
I found I never learned your number
I only stored it in my phone
You'd think by now
I'd know the shape of calling home...
And I'm okay
If you're okay, with wasting time
But when you trace
You always see the bottom line
And we are tracing
I hope you know
We are tracing, we're both alone
We are tracing
We are tracing
Did you ever get the feeling that we started in the middle?
Or have you ever had the sense that we were lying just a little?
I mean come on
It's not like we knew ourselves that long...

The Homefront

September 06 2005
Mi amigo Stanton came by last night and told me they think my brother broke his leg horsing around yesterday, so that's not so good. Tried to called Shaun, but his phone is wigging out and couldn't get through. Hopefully I'll hear from him today sometime. I know it's just a broken leg, but he was supposed to be working a bunch this week, and now won't be able to...plus, all his performing and preaching and stuff; he'd have to suspend all that for a while I guess. Or it will be more difficult at least. I dunno. We'll see.
Better news...I learned to play more Lifehouse yesterday...as well as the theme song from Last of the Mohicans...mwahahaa (evil laugh).
Today I have Psych. class and need to read a book for Thursday; gonna hit up the library before and after--I can't really study at home. Too many distractions...tv, xbox, internet! Oh, and food. And sleep. Anyway. Got to go.
Peace, Love, and Chickengrease. Love, Heath.

TAYLOR'S NICKNAME, PART II

September 03 2005
This is for everybody on the internet, and specifically Laura, because she replied to the first proclamation. Taylor remains adamant that no nickname is necessary...so I say we just call him Tater until he comes up with a better nickname. As this action will no doubt erode the bedrock of his masculinity and ego, rendering him annoyed or even mightily angered, be forewarned...he works out.

Thank You,

Management

P.S. We out here in the boonies are severely happy that you got good news yesterday, Laurabee.

P.S.S. Call Taylor Tater.

TAYLOR'S NICKNAME

September 02 2005
This is for everybody on the internet...Taylor saw where I left Laura a message and referred to him as "Tater." This term is demeaning to him, insulting, and erodes the bedrock of his masculinity and ego. Henceforth, he shall only be known as Taylor. He does not need a nickname to strike fear into the hearts of evildoers everywhere. Thank you for your time. Stay tuned for further updates from the Unit 619.

Thursday

September 01 2005
So, things I've done lately...
Harbored refugees from Hattiesburg on Tuesday and Wednesday, gave blood Wednesday, struggled in class on Thursday because of little sleep (moved a piano at one a.m.) and maybe the heat (I know I ate like I was supposed to after the giving of the blood). Tonite I wrote a paper for History class tomorrow, and it's probably not my best effort, but at least it is done. Looking forward to Friday, probably going to visit Taylor's sister Kelly in her new place, and then my friend Jason is coming to Oxford on Saturday, and Brandon's pool b-day party is Saturday as well. Hopefully I'll get a substantial amount of reading done too...we'll see about that.

heefus!

UNIT 619

August 27 2005
Yes, it's true, I was m.i.a. from all the hoppin action in Oxford last night. Each year the unit 69/619 holds a fantasy football draft (don't laugh, this is serious business) and last night was the beginning of much trash talk for months to come. And yes, mine is the greatest team ever assembled (I'm working on my modesty, can you tell?).
Today I get to read one of three books I have due by this Friday, so hooray for me, and have to be getting back to it. Probably take a break and do the grove thing with the boys around 8, that Sanders kid is playing, and he's worth hearing. Goodbye, phusebox.

heefus.

Late Wednesday

August 24 2005
My bro is coming to Oxford tomorrow! Something with his school, where he gets a few days off, so he'll be here tomorrow night...so us guys will all probably hit up some Ajax or Chili's or something....fun times...
Tomorrow my seminar meets at 4pm...I hope it's not going to be a super-huge burden. With the classes I'm already in, I couldn't take much more, but I have to in order to GRADUATE in December...
At least ShawnB and I have Psych tomorrow. It'll be a breeze.
Ran out of interesting stuff to say, imagine that. Peace!

First Day of Classes

August 22 2005
Taylor (my roomie) and I had The History of Western Art at 8am today...we were the only two seniors in said class...bunch of pimply-faced, scared freshman surrounding us. We get a drop grade in there, and the tests are multiple choice...I had forgotten what it was like to not be taking junior/senior level courses.
His 377 and 392 will be tolerable...lots of essays and papers, but what else is new?
Tomorrow I have Dev. Psych. with Shawn B, so we'll cut up in there...other than that, Tuesday is a lazy day.
Right now gonna take a short nap, and then go run some errands...woe is me.
Special shout out to Laura, who is the only person I know on here, and who is a super-suave Rook partner. See ya Tuesday!
