Kinfolk

I went to the family reunion last weekend and dragged Arnold along. We all converged on "the hill" on Friday night. Thankfully, grandpa did not display his guns for Arnold. In an attempt to embarrass me, my mother had my Aunt Sonya create a few pictures of me riding a cow. I find it funny that the pictures created to embarrass me weren't nearly as embarrassing as the ones she simply found to embarrass mom. Anyway, Saturday we went to "the other hill" and visited grandma. We played the Great Dalmuti, which Kent won most of the time. He was a very nice Dalmuti. No one even had to make wookie noises. We ate "Hot Dogs" and sat in the miserable heat enjoying each other's company and admiring Steve's new baby. This one didn't even cry when I held it! I would post pictures of the little one, but I accidentally deleted all pics from Saturday. Sunday was the family reunion. There was the standard "pickin' on" and really good food, though Arnold was disappointed that no one showed up with Long John Silvers. Grandpa's fried chicken was gone before he got a piece. I also remember something about an ice fight. All and all, it was a good time and Arnold got off pretty easy. I think the cat did the most damage really. Oh well, there is always next year ;)

BILLY!

I just got back from Atlanta. Well, a couple hours ago anyway. I had to leave ATL early to make it back in time for class. I got the easy end of the deal though. Arnold had to drive all the way back to Charleston. Anyway, Arnold and I met in Atlanta for the Billy Corgan Concert. Much fun was had. It was a nice small venue, about 1,000 people. Arnold and I chose actual seats rather than standing in front of the stage, as I am chronically short and he was very tired. The opening acts were...interesting. The first had a lead singer who was either on some serious drugs or needed to be. I'll call them "alternative" but only because I can't find any other nice word to describe them. Oh wait... "better than Children's Hour", but that is more than one word, isn't it. The second act was better, more entertaining, and pretty much trying to be The Knack. The lead singer looked like Topher Grace. They had a trombone player, which made them infinitely cooler. When they revealed the backdrop for Billy Corgan, it looked like nothing but a white tile bathroom wall. But it would soon reveal a myriad of colors and designs. It was quite cool. I was impressed anyway. The colors reflected nicely off of the silver stage pieces, which resulted in several "ooh shiny" moments. Billy's new music did not disappoint, nor did his 'tween songs banter. When he tried to speak at the end of the show, after the encore, the audience wouldn't shut up and he never got to make his point. Crazed fan+Beer=drunken moron. I could go into lots of detail, but then you'd stop reading and it would serve no purpose. But one detail I would like to add is that the keyboardist? last night was quite impressive. I have no musical ear, and therefore have no idea if she is a good musician or not. But there is something to be said for a person who can pull one leg behind her back while balancing on a stiletto heel and still be able to play their instrument. If I get the pictures downloaded soon, I'll try to post one or two here. Adios.

Plunder!

I went to Charleston this weekend. I had tons-o-fun. We played a sort of board game called Plunder, with Pirates and ships and booty and fun! And as there is some luck involved, I kicked Arnold's ass. We also played an RPG called Deliria. It was also quite fun, except for the fact that I managed to separate my character's spiritual self from her physical self and one had to keep running after the other. I have a test tomorrow so I should probably do that "studying" thing I have heard so much about. Adios!

The Post that Came Fourth

I had my third of five dynamics tests today. It wasn't too bad. The professor seems to give the...well, not easy, but more straight forward questions on exams. The weather is still hot as hell, even though it rains every other day. It is like I am in Florida without the fun. There are even mosquitos, like the 6 that bit me during a 10 min phone conversation outside my apartment yesterday. This brings to mind something I saw on a sign once, "Noah could have swatted the two mosquitos". Other than frog food, they really serve no purpose but annoyance and disease spreading. Anyway, England draws near, the day draws to an end, and with thoughts of how exactly to pack a month and a half worth of underwear, I draw this post to a close.

Third Post- I really need to come up with more interesting titles.

Yet again I am updating with no real information to update with. Oh well. I just like typing in this thing. I have a test tomorrow, so I 'll just leave it as a "no update" update and not ramble.

Second Post

Why I feel like updating this thing is beyond me. Nothing much has happened since yesterday. Yet I feel I should write in this thing. Even though exactly two people are reading it. Oh well, maybe I'll write something that I find amusing enough to scrapbook later. I should probably decide if this is going to be a "daily life" blog or a "things of interest or import" blog. I suppose it could be both. I am traveling soon, so it will turn into a daily life blog soon enough. Though while traveling, daily life should being interesting and/or important. I am rambling. I'll stop and continue with the rambling another day.

First Post

I was really excited to get this thing set up and now I have no clue what to write. I guess I'll just explain the origin of "Sesome". Sesome is not misspelled ( though misspelled might be, I can never remember if it has one s or two). Anyway, I was tryng to come up with a creative gmail account name. When every frickin' name I wanted was taken, I got the bright idea to spell my clemson ID backwards. Thus, emoses became sesome and I carried it over to the blog Not much of a first post, I know. But hey, they can only get better, right?
