well…the johnny king is home. he had a whirlwind trip to venice, italy, and now he's home. we went out wednesday night to celebrate and it carried on well into the next morning. all told, we had a blast. the hangover the next day was well worth it.

i'm starting to get rather pissed about how ridiculous the christmas season is getting. they're showing christmas movies on tv the week before we even hit thanksgiving. that's just stupid, if you ask me. we were out shopping prior to halloween and there were christmas decorations for sale. when will enough be enough? will we hit new year's day 2003, only to turn around and be told that we better get ready for christmas?

i'm sorry, people…i don't need to be reminded about christmas. it's kinda hard to miss. really.

remember that awesome stereo i was bragging about getting? well…it has problems. it doesn't like to repeat a cd in its entirety. it gets to the end and skips back three tracks and keeps playing those over and over. slightly annoying, to say the least. i'm taking the car into circuit city later this evening to have it swapped out for a replacement…

hi. my name's brian. my life is incredibly boring.
