Short one

Brief brief this time.

Just spent two days in Philly, then two days in Harrisburg, Pa. Still casting for Supernanny. I started on season 3 and am continuing on through season 4.

In personal news, Steph and I just registered for our wedding. We're registered at macy's for fine china and the like and Target for everything else. Steph still won't let me register for fireworks. Oh well. If you want to look it up and are having trouble finding it look under Joshua Mills on October 13th.

That's all for now.

Taxitime update

I'm writing this while sitting in a cab, so bear with me on the typos and spelling errors.
I'm on my way to Macon, Ga right now. Flight to ATL then rental car to macon.
I'm still working on Supernanny. It's a pretty good job and the show's pretty popular. I'm happy with the steady paycheck and cool coworkers.
Steph is living here in LA now and it's been pretty great. She has a job now and is at the end of her second week. She likes it well enough.
Right now, I still feel like there aren't enough hours in the day to do all the things I want to do and still sleep a decent amount.
Oh well, like I told Eric a long time ago: You can always sleep later.

Xo,

Josh

Hotel Arlen

Hotel room
Night again
Explained central time to a 23 year old woman born here, today
So I guess it's not so silly that you can't remember when veronica mars is on
My head is sore and tired
I'm waiting for sleep
Alone, again
Hotel, again
Liver aches
Eyes hurt
It's funny how I drive the same car to the same hotel everytime
Same chain-restaurant nightmare
A panera bread
Texas roadhouse
Chili's
Chotchski's
Flingers
At least luby's is here, and so is sonic
I am so getting the luann platter as soon as humanly frickin' possible.
If my shitty rental car ran on propane, I'd fill up a strickland propane.
Drove through anson texas twice lately. Anson, arlen? Sound similar.

A guy can dream.

Until I wake up.

Thank you

Just a few words before I lay my head down again
You say thank you, but really I should be thanking you
I am what you make me
You are kind, so I want to be nicer
You are beautiful, so I want to be thinner
You are strong and brave, and so I want that too
You are smart, in ways I wish I could be
Maybe I'm dumb and slow, but I know what I want
And I know how lucky I am

Turn Off Unnecessary Windows XP Services

Turning off unnecessary services in Windows XP can greatly reduce your exploit risk, while improving system performance. It's a good time to inject that often there are all sorts of "download optimizers" and other cute programs that vendors like to push on users. The first rule is "If you don't know you need it, you probably don't."

Merry christmas

She's a queen without a throne
giving up the crown to move to a far away land
Leave her whole life behind
Kind of a reverse fairy tale
Only instead of coming from nothing to having everything
She's giving up everything to have just the warmth, the life

Well all I want this year is you

I'll still treat you like a queen even away from the kingdom

Dear you

It looks like we got ahead of ourselves already
Now we just need to play catch-up
I can't help but notice you've been avoiding me
I don't blame you
Maybe it's for the best

Make you smile

The last time I saw you

You turned away
I couldn't see you with the sun shining in my eyes
I said hello but you kept on walking
I'm going deaf from the sound of the freeway
The last time I saw you
You turned away
I couldn't hear with your voice ringing in my ears
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you
You're always so far away

The first time I saw you
You turned away
I couldn't see you with the smoke getting in my eyes
I said hello but you kept on walking
I'm going deaf from the sound of the dj
The first time I saw you
You turned away
I couldn't hear with the noise ringing in my ears
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you
You're always so far away

I don't
Don't want to take you home
Please don't
Don't make me sleep alone
If I could
I'd only want to make you smile
If you were to stay with me for a while

The next time I see you
You'll turn away
I'll say hello but you'll keep on walking
The next time you see me I'll turn away
Do you remember where we used to sleep at night?
I couldn't feel you
You're always so far away

I don't
Don't want to take you home
Please don't
Don't make me sleep alone
If I could
I'd only want to make you smile
If you were to stay with me for a while

Transitions

Everything needs to fade from starlight into bright of day
From what I hear
Nothing gold can stay
But Billy West got a new lease on life
Maybe things won't be so bad for me
I still have a long way to go though

I've always had this sort of lifetime near-sightedness
When I was 18, I never thought I'd live past 25 for whatever reason. I just couldn't imagine myself then, what my life would be like
Had a girlfriend back then.
She used to ask me about the future all the time, was she in it and all that.
I would always just say that I couldn't see myself in the future
Really had a problem visualizing it
But it sounded like a shitty, passive-aggressive way of saying “don't plan on sticking around, babydoll.”
But I was telling the truth, maybe I just don't have a future
So when it finally dawned on me, that I'd probably make it past 25, I had to start making other plans
Took the peircing out of my tongue
I want to still have my teeth in ten years
Quit smoking
Don't want to be coughing out my lungs at 45
You get the idea

So now I'm in another kind of transisiton
Relationship crucible
I guess you got to just be yourself
Run it up the flagpole and see what happens
Sink or swim
Just say what's on your mind
For better or for worse
