  14. has 44.7% of the $$$ for a killer new guitar or amp!!1:10 AM Aug 14th from web

Apparently, my TwitterFeed had another feedgasm and posted a spam-worthy four posts in a row. Sorry about that; I dunno why it posts a bunch of stuff in a row like that.

Also, Les Paul died that day. I was hoping to see him play in New York someday, but hey, the man lived to be 94 years old and did so much for reproduced audio like inventing sound-on-sound, reverb, delay, and altering tape speed to name a few of his accomplishments. RIP Les!

That day, I uploaded the first in a series of videos showing you guys how I play the Riff Ideas that are on Chrome Sparks’ MySpace. I might be recording how to play Riff Ideas 3 & 4 this weekend because I doubt I’ll be able to get on the internet. Stay tuned for that!

  1. is going over to Eriopolis’ to hang out.8:58 PM Aug 15th from web

  9. just posted How To Play Chrome Sparks’ Riff Idea #1http://bit.ly/i8Llx12:11 AM Aug 15th from TweetMyBlog

On the 15th, I got super-addicted to Cracked.com and spent most of the day reading article after article.

I did peel myself away for a bit to hang out with Eriopolis, who recently got WiFi for his apartment as well as Wii Sports Resort. The dueling swords wore the fuck out of my arm, let me tell ya!

  1. is off to work.5:23 PM Aug 16th from web

  2. is gonna chill with Eriopolis before he goes to work today.3:01 PM Aug 16th from web

  3. is getting lunch ready.12:08 PM Aug 16th from web

  4. is going to bed already. Goodnight!2:37 AM Aug 16th from web

I think I talked to Eriopolis about moving in with him that day, but he said that I had to pass a credit check and that my credit score had to be 600 or more.

According to a credit check that I got through PrePayLegal months ago, my credit score was 290. However, I looked into it and a 290 is impossible as the lowest would actually be 300, which could only be achieved if I filed for bankruptcy every year for the past five years. I think I just had a Jon Arbuckle “third-class!” moment. Wow, that joke couldn’t be any more inside if I ate it! To prevent your head from exploding thinking about its origins, it’s from Garfield in Paradise.

  1. is uploading the new vlog. Here’s hoping it works!!11:03 PM Aug 17th from web

  2. finished editing a new vlog showing how to play Chrome Sparks’ Riff Idea #2. Can it be uploaded to YouTube if it’s 10 minutes & 15 seconds??10:31 PM Aug 17th from web

  3. is going to Wal-Mart to get some Chinese food for din-din!! See what he did there? Chinese? Din-Din? Anybody?7:57 PM Aug 17th from web

  4. is awake and doing the laundry.12:19 PM Aug 17th from web

  5. is hitting the shower like it owes him money and then going beddie-by. Night!!3:08 AM Aug 17th from web

  6. has 47.8% of the funds for an awesome new guitar!! That’s almost halfway!!!1:12 AM Aug 17th from web

  7. @kimkardashian: Kim! Kim! I saw a bird. It was pretty. That is all.1:10 AM Aug 17th from web

Lol, DBZ Abridged reference!

Yeah, the Spicy Beef & Broccoli has got to be my favorite InnovAsian dish, followed by Chicken Fried Rice! That’s one thing I’ll miss about living on my own, for sure!

After hearing the Drop-D version of Riff Idea #2, I think I prefer the E-Standard version heard on our MySpace. Perhaps I’ll record how to play the E-Standard version this weekend. What do you guys think?

  1. wants you to catch Infinity Metal with Eriopolis and Mean Metal X from 8-10pm EST: http://su.pr/9k7RZU8:35 PM Aug 18th from Su.pr

  11. I uploaded a YouTube video — TheAndySan – How To Play Chrome Sparks’ Riff Idea #2 http://bit.ly/NrPMM12:15 AM Aug 18th from Google

It’s hard to believe that this was my last day at work. After all that’s happened to me, that life seemed like a dream from a time long past.

  1. has decided to move back in with his parents. He wants to stay here in BG, but he doesn’t have the cash for a new place right now. Dammit…11:03 PM Aug 19th from web

  3. @ntrlwmn: My 1 friend tried, but his parents threatened to cut everything off if he let me stay there, even for the night.10:21 PM Aug 19th from web in reply to ntrlwmn

  4. is still here at The Enclave, but he’s gonna be putting all of his stuff in storage tomorrow and then try to find a new place to live. Yay..10:19 PM Aug 19th from web

  5. is posting his final tweet from the Enclave II. He’s going to be looking into getting a new apartment in the morning.7:17 PM Aug 19th from web

  6. is going on a bike ride to clear his head.5:16 PM Aug 19th from web

  7. has been informed that he has to vacate his apartment within 24 hours. He’s contacting some people so he can find a place to stay.5:12 PM Aug 19th from web

  8. is attempting to upload a video to YouTube that’s 14 minutes & 46 seconds long. Since he’s been a member since March 1, 2006, will it work??2:51 PM Aug 19th from web

  9. is awake and ready to start a new day!12:11 PM Aug 19th from web

  10. is going to bed after a nice hot shower. Good night, everyone!!2:44 AM Aug 19th from web

  11. has 48.7% of the funding for a new guitar or amp. It’s funny because last time, he had 47.8%.12:51 AM Aug 19th from web

My life seemed over that day. At the time, I haven’t felt as scared of the future since I left UU to live with my aunt and cousins.

After living for three months on my own in a city 100 miles away from my parents, I felt that I was finally beginning to start over. All of my past failures with ITT Tech and UU would be put to rest at last, because I would go back to college and get my four-year degree this time. No more having to work a minimum wage job to support myself. No more looking into a bleak future for a promising young mind. I would start anew.

For a time, I was successful. Three months to be precise. Until I got the news that I had 24 hours to vacate the premises because my subleasing agreement was considered invalid due to the lack of a guarantor or a monthly income of at least $855. What I’ll be doing to get back on my own will be saved for another post.

  1. is tweeting his last tweet…for now. He’s leaving The Enclave 2 for good, but is hoping to return to BG in the near future. Bye for now!!!19:00 AM Aug 20th from web

  2. I uploaded a YouTube video — TheAndySan – Vlog 17 – Moving Back http://www.youtube.com/watc…2:20 AM Aug 20th from Google

  3. just posted Vlog 17 – Moving Back http://www.tweetmyblog.com/…2:04 AM Aug 20th from TweetMyBlogu-

Man, moving day was a real pain!

I sent in a change-of-address form to the post office, got money from Advance America to rent a U-Haul, put the check in the bank, went to rent a U-Haul, found out that it’ll take a day for the check to process, freaked out, took the check back from the bank, went back to Advance America, cashed the check there, brought the cash to the bank, went back to the U-Haul rental store, finally got everything processed, hooked up my car, drove back to The Enclave II, moved ALL my crap into the van as well as my car, went to Subway to enjoy my last dinner in Bowling Green for awhile, and finally got on the road home. Whew!

is alive and well at his parents’ house. He’s seriously considering moving to Findley instead of back to BG since Owens is there. Thoughts??8:02 PM Aug 21st from web

Despite my rather hectic day moving the day before, I did have enough time to make a single Tweet saying that I’m still alive and that I made it successfully to my parents’ house.

Once again, TwitterFeed had a feedgasm and pumped out four of my previous posts when I posted a more detailed account of what caused me to suddenly move back in with my folks. I really gotta figure out why it’s doing that…

  1. says he can still stay with his folks until he finds another place, but he needs to hurry because the college kids are gobbling up the jobs.12:30 PM Aug 24th from web

  2. has to drive out to BG to pick up his check, pay off Advance America, and search for jobs and a place to live in Findlay. Fun-Fun!!12:28 PM Aug 24th from web

I didn’t Tweet on the 23rd for some reason that escapes me. Anyway, I’m going to be waiting to pick up my checks on September 4th so that I don’t have to make two trips out to BG. After that’s done, I’ll pay off Advance America and apply for jobs in Findlay as well as look for apartments there. I couldn’t find much of anything online, but maybe I’ll find something if I’m actually there. Wish me luck!

Yesterday, I finally got around to editing and uploading a vlog that’s been sitting on my desktop since the 4th of July when I recorded it.

In addition to recording new vlogs, I’ll also be editing previously recorded videos over the weekend since I doubt that I’ll be online because my stepdad’s anal about stuff like that.

Well, I just barely made it to the Thursday deadline. Congrats if you made it this far. I’ll see you guys later on.

Stay cool!

TheAndySan
