i have once again joined the ranks of the gainfully employed. fuck. yes.

it's funny. unlike jesse, i have always hated geocities. the pages always took forever to load and they looked like shit whenever they finally did load. despite this, however, i find myself a little sad they are shutting down and have been nostalgically reminiscing about the days when i would curse any link i clicked on that took me to a geocities page.

my brother and i painted my nephew-to-be's room today. i had a blast. it was nice to paint something again, even if it was just a small project.

hahaha i love the episode of st:tng where picard gets assimilated and the music is all DUN DUNDUN DUN DUUUUUUUN.

OMG TEH BORGZ R SRS BSNS U GUISE!

i love my cousin for sending this to me.

so when i went to the dmv to get my license about a month ago, i was informed that if i wanted to have a male gender marker on my license that i would have to find a psychologist and have them fill out the dl 329 gender change form. my mom said she knew a shrink lady from our church so i went to her and had her fill it out. but the dmv just sent the form back because apparently she is not the right kind of shrink? i guess she is a counselor and not a psychologist? i am not super sure what the difference is, honestly; i am kind of ignorant of that sort of thing. so now i am stressed out because i don't know any psychologists. they said it doesn't have to be someone in california, that i could have whoever i might have seen in portland to do it, but i didn't see anyone in portland. i don't know any psychologists and i have no idea how to go about finding one, which is maybe stupid but that is how it is. i also don't have any money so i am not sure what i am going to do if i DO find one because i can't really pay anyone to fill this form out for me (the church friend did it for free). and, of course, interaction with strangers freaks me out and interacting on the phone freaks me out even more (stupid asperger's) so i am basically at this point where i am not at all sure wtf i am supposed to do. it pisses me off that i haveve to do it in the first place, honestly, because hello, obviously i am male so why the fuck do i need a psychologist to confirm that? i mean, i understand those are the rules of the system but it's still annoying. so i don't know what to do. and i'm am stressed out about it more than i probably should be. i mean, i already have the license and everything and it has the correct gender marker, but i guess it will be invalid or something if i don't find someone to fill out the damned form within the next 60 days. i hate stressing over things that are really not that big of a deal but i can't help it. i just don't know what to do.

i am once again a californian. and a driver.

Let the howlers howl,
And the growlers growl,
And the scowlers scowl,
And let the rough gang go it.

For behind the night
There is plenty of light,
And the world is all right,
And I know it.

i <3 icanhascheezburger. i also <3 cheetahs.
