Wuuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzzuuuuuuuuppppppppp?!!!!!!  Damn, it’s been so so so long, and I know I say it every time, but I’m sorry :(  But you know what, I’m sure that the three of you people who keep coming back and supporting our site can bear with me and understand, right :)  Anyway, I'm writing this while listening to a really cool song that has repeated for about the 15^th hundred time now.  I heard it before and thought it was cool, but the other day I was in a restaurant and it came on and I was like, “Damn, this is good sh--!”  I couldn’t get it out of my head since I heard it, and I downloaded it off Napster (I’m so bad, huh), and now I’m playing it and playing it and…. It’s called “Yellow” by Cold Play.  Anyway, it’s such a nice day outside right now.  So what’s new with us huh…. Oh, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!  I can’t believe it’s 2001 right now!  2000 went sooooooooooo fast!  I still remember everybody saying “Watch out!  Y2K’s gonna get ya!!!!!”  And of course,

Hey, I’m back.  Sorry, I was trying to write this here diary yesterday, but I had trouble focusing and got a little sidetracked.  But I'm back!  One day, I'll pull these diaries out and read them, probably when I’m 45 years old, and I'll think back to when I wrote them, and smile and cry and laugh all at the same time.  It’s weird—when something happens, you don’t really think of it as anything totally special or anything.  But once you start looking back on it, it somehow turns almost unreal.

Anyway…. oh, guess what?!  We finally bought a P.A.!  Last Friday (the Friday before the one we had 2 days ago) we went to Mars Music and just bought it.  We first went to Guitar Center, but I hate that place.  I feel like I’m trying to be sold a used car.  This guy was all saying how JBL and Crate sucks and you have to buy a Yamaha and nothing else, and how he was going to do me a huge favor and drop his price so I’ll only be paying $200 MORE than buying it somewhere else.  What a great guy!  I was like, “Gee, could the fact that you’re trying to unload your Yamaha’s on me (which I know is good stuff, but don’t give me crap about JBL’s being crappy.  All JBL makes are speakers!!!) have anything to do with the simple fact that you are out of the other brand?!!”  Anyway, we went from there to Mars Music in Santa Ana, and those guys were super cool!  They were nice and gave us a good deal, and the guy even loaded the speakers in our car for us!  And I was happy cuz I got to use my $200 gift certificate that I won… and if you don’t know what I’m talking about, THEN READ MY OTHER DIARIES!!!!!  Cheating is not permitted here, and if I unveil even a small trace of it, believe you me, I will not hesitate to take drastic actions, measures, etc.—believe you me!!!!!! 

Anyway, it’s been so cold lately!  Well, I guess yesterday was nice, but a lot of days have been pretty cold, and especially the nights!  One night, from what the news said anyway, was 32 degrees!  That’s cold enough to snow!  That would be so crazy if it rained, I’d be able to snowboard down my little street!  But Mario said even if it rained, it couldn’t snow because of something to do with elevation or something. 

Well, I don’t really have too much to say right now for some reason, so I guess I’ll keep this one short.  I want to go try to write another song or start one or something.  Wish me luck!  No, you know what?  Not only will I write a song, but I’ll write a song for yooooooouuuuuuuuuu :)  Sound familiar???
