Ferenczy, Unfiltered
So, I got an email from Dave today asking these two questions:
1) How long does school go before winter break? Because I definitely want to come up to visit with my amp and guitar.
2) When, oh when, will the great Mike grace us with another okaysamurai.com entry?
So I figured, "hey, I have a lot to do, so I should post RIGHT NOW!!!!" Yeah, so here goes a few random ramblings and updates. First, I got a new car. A silver 2003 VW Passat 5 speed and it's sweet. But I still have the old green 94 Ford Taurus and it's sitting out on the street in Baltimore city, waiting to get sold. And the great part about this car is that the keyless entry system opens whenever someone in the vicinity clicks their keyless entry. So my car spends a lot of time sitting on the street, in a city with an incredibly high car theft rate, UNLOCKED. This has been going on for about 4 months now. My car is still there. That should tell you something about what kind of shape it's in. It looks like something the Wutand Killer Bees would be driving around in with $4000 rims, hydraulics, and a hot tub full of "fly honies" (yeah, I'm gangsta) in one of their videos. Wanna buy it?
Random thought number 2: I've gotten very patient and almost zenlike at school this year. Today, one of my kids was acting like a jerk, so I told him he couldn't do the class project anymore. So he threw a box of crayons at me. Not the big crayola 132-pack, just a 24-pack of crayons. And I hardly yelled at him at all. I just sent him to the office. But things are better at school this year. 86 of my 110 kids passed the first quarter. I think that must be some kind of record for a teacher who actually makes them work to pass.
What else. Oh, layoffs at school. We're supposed to find out which 15 people at school are gonna be losing their jobs on Friday. That sucks. Hope it's not me, because that would mean I couldn't get things thrown at me anymore. Dammit. Plus, then I'd have to go make a lot of money being a chemical engineer, instead of makeing model watersheds. Daammit dammit.
I'm growing my beard back. Fun times. I look scary.
I have hardly played drums since Dave left. I'm really looking forward to him coming up here with guitar and amp. We have school till the 23rd, so get your behind up here soon, son...I need to play some "Under the Boardwalk" and "Mike's Got a Fat Ass."
Anyway, that's all for now from Baltimore. Floor is lava...
