It’s funny, the more things that happen in my personal life, the less I post here. It is just not worth the hassle to let the world know my deeper thoughts.

I just renewed bibik.org at godaddy.com. Why godaddy? Register.com was charging $35/year, godaddy is charging $9/year. The domain expires on the 17th, so here’s to hoping that the transfer goes through in time. Otherwise, I wouldn’t be surprised if I have to find a new domain! Bibik.org, bibik.net, bibik.com and bibik.biz (yeah, don’t ask me) are all taken. mikebibik isn’t taken in any form, but I don’t want anything so specific.

Well kids, yesterday was the 4th of July and what did I do? Nothing. Why did I do nothing? Because I was tired. I was tired because of work. I work because I need money. I need money because I like to buy stuff. I like to buy stuff because it gives me something to do. Fuck.

I finally broke down and signed up for the A+ hardware certification exam. $140! That cost wouldn’t be so bad if I didn’t have to take two such exams to get the A+ certification.

Music makes me cry and I can’t help but smile whenever I see a baby. I am so damned old.

I finally broke down and decided that my Ann Arbor apartment is just too hot. When I brought a digital thermometer upstairs and registered 93.8 degrees, that’s when I knew it was time to go back to Livonia for awhile. Central AC is worth sacrificing my computer and my liberties, if for just a little while.

I might be selling my laptop soon. (Thanks, but I already have a buyer). Should I drop 2 large and get a new Dell? Even with the money I will get for the old laptop, that is still a paycheck and a half! Here are my requirements for a used laptop:

• Pentium III (thus, 450MHz or better)
• 256 megs of ram
• 5 gig hard drive
• 14″ or larger LCD screen that supports at least 1024×768
• DVD drive
• 10/100 network port
• A working battery!
• All for under $750

If something like that shows up on eBay, I am all set. These guys just might have something I am looking for…

There just might be a chance for the rest of the West to catch up with the Wings, but don’t hold your breath.

I just found them so they aren’t going on the side bar just yet: Aversion (punk and indie news)and Faction Radio (post punk, indie, emo and punk internet radio).

Note to self: stop linking to Pitchfork. There is something about the singing of a soft, little girl voice that will transfix me on the spot. It is vaguely reminescent of, what seems to be, a previous life. I cannot explain what it does to me; I feel at peace. I can close my eyes and feel that I am floating through an opaque peach sky, weightless.

Saloon is doing this to me right now. Make it hurt.
