Tuesday evening, my friends and I carried through with our plans as Matt, Russell, Geni, and Angela came over for the evening for a night of video game madness. Of course we did spend a BIT of time watching the news, in between having the apartment complex in which I live being evacuated as a result of a fire alarm being set off, and having Geni kick everyone's ass at Mario Kart. Everyone (except Angela) stayed the night, and it was a lot of fun to have my friends around me for that evening, otherwise I would have just sat watching the news in sadness. It was good to find a way to smile and laugh with loved ones, and we did just that -- all the way until the sun started to come up.
The following day, my comrades and I scoured a few record shops in search of a mighty treasure. While the treasure we found wasn't exactly mighty, it was still a treasure.
After they left to return to Salem, I was alone again. I spent the next couple of days glued to the television screen. What a mess. I don't feel like talking about it right now, because I've already said most of my peace, and I'd rather not discuss it on such an open level -- if you'd care to discuss it on an individual basis, feel free to catch me on AIM.

that's all. there is work going on behind the scenes at sardonia.org. stay tuned.
