We decorated CAB's room last night before she got home from New York. Matthew and I also put the dummies back up. It's pretty crazy, both the Times Delta and the Fresno Bee want to do follow-up article on Matthew and I for rebuilding the dummies. I think we're gonna meet a reporter over there today for pictures. If I never mentioned it before, the dummies were vandalized the night before the Browns were leaving for New York. Mr. Brown didn't have time to repair them and was really bummed to let the vandals just get away with it. We knew this so we decided to rebuild the display while the Browns were gone. I can't tell you how stoked Mr. Brown was when he saw them last night. He's not a REALLY emotional guy but he said "thank you" and that means a lot coming from him. So I got these fae ninja swords for Christmas and decided that if the vandals try anything again, I'll chase them down and seriously beat them with those sticks. It's freaking CHRISTMAS and why would you vandalise something so innocent and nice. It's the same as tearing someone's lights down. Anyway, it really pissed me off cuz I was over there working on it so much so we can't let that crap happen again. But seriously, I will hit you in the head with a hard red oak fake ninja sword if you try any monkey business!

Kaitlyn came home today and Matthew came home last night. He's sleeping here cuz we planned on staying up all night playing DANCE DANCE REVOLUTION!!! But got lazy and never even retrieved it from his house. So I beat Prince of Persia today, one of the best games I've ever played. Jessica, Kaitlyn, Matt and I ran down to Krispey Kreme then Target right before it closed. It was an early night as they went home at 10 and Matt fell asleep soon after. I've just been up watching, Waiting for Guffman (funnnnny movie) and messing around with Photoshop. Well, planning on going snowboarding on Wednesday for sure and don't know what else to post about. Sorry so boring. Goodnight Visalia.

KG left for the beach Friday morning, miss her much. She's coming back tomorrow (today) at 2. If you've been wondering where I've been, well I've been home. Sicker than a dog. I hope I get over this soon. Sorry I haven't posted, well that just shows you how nasty I feel. Sorry to all my sick partners who are enduring this with me.

First of all, MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Second; I haven't felt very good, but I haven't thrown up since tuesday evening. Then, I wake up at about 4 today and run to the bathroom, it was the worst of all vomits. It hurt and still does. My throat feels like there's a big nasty hole in it. I'm sorry to all those who are going through this with me. My thoughts go out to you, Kaitlyn, Matt, Mom, Kris, Aunt Alice, Blair, and anyone I've forgotten. We can get through this together, simply by calling eachother after each time we randomly ralph and complaining. I do think it's the best way we know to deal with it. Amen.

I got Kaitlyn a Volcom beanie and Volcom knee high socks. I thought they were pretty cool until we exchanged presents and she gave me a pair of UGGs and a whole bunch of little doodads. What a freakin' awesome girlfriend. Kaitlyn You're the sweetest. I just feel dumb because her present kicks mine's butt... hard.
Kaitlyn and I went to a movie last night, but the whole way home from the cabin I felt like I was kinda gonna puke. So when we get to her house and I'm unloading her suitcase, I really feel it coming. Somehow I supressed it and fended off the urge to blow chunks. Then the whole way home from her house I was like groggy and not doin' too good. Driving half the speed limit with the windows down, I just wanted to get home just in case I did throw up.
I get home and by that time I felt fine. So a couple of hours later, while we're watching the movie, I say, "I'll be right back." I threw up in the bathroom. 30 min later it happens again and I get that freakin' cold sweat all over my body. I just marched out to my car while KG was still in the movie and contemplated just leaving. I was too dizzy and the chance of throwing up was too great. So I had to have my parents come and pick me up and my mom drive my car home for me. I've been throwing up all night. Arg, what a great time huh? Now I'm gonna leave and possibly not see KG for like 2 weeks. Oh gayness has come over the situation.

We're back and crackin'! Oh man... Only two more days until Christmas. This is weird eh? I miss Canada. I listened to Bob and Doug a lot on XM this weekend. Going to see that Jack Nicholson movie tonight, it looks cute so I think we'll have fun.
Friday, December 19, 2003
My bathroom's not a poop tea brewery.
Leaving for Shaver today. KG and Matthew are coming up on Sunday or Monday, it should be awesome. We'll have a threesome of fun.
Kaitlyn keeps making references to how small I am. She doesn't realize that it serious affects me. It makes me want to eat a whole bunch and start working out. If she's not careful, it's gonna happen.

I'm looking into getting hosting through SJVC (that means freeeee) and buying a domain name. The address of my site would change to a "dot com" domain name. I dunno what to make it though. I thought up some options, if you have any insight on them, email me at eatsnowitswater@hotmail.com. Here they are:
- nonero.com
- myfriendmatthew.com
- bumjumper.com
- conundrum.com
My worries are fading with every passing moment. This break will be busy but sweet. Snowboarding and Hawaii with friends and family. Please have a good break everyone, relax and chill.
Today is gonna be the craziest day in the world. When I wake up in the morning, I've gotta finish editting the video AND memorize like 30 formulas for math. But it don't matter cuz all I'm looking forward to is going up to the cabin with Kaitlyn. Ooooooo, and there better be snow, cuz snow makes every situation 10 times more magical. (and you can eat it, it's water)

I was SOOO hungry before the hockey game, then I had to ride up with these two kids in the Boy Scout troop that smoke and they smelled so bad. By the time I got there, I seriously felt like I was going to puke and couldn't eat a thing, then I had to ride with them all the way back. It was disgusting.
Webpage weather.... Oooooo, aaahhhh. Scroll down and check out to right side of the page. (I'll probably get really bored/annoyed by that thing and take it off within a couple of days)
So it's pretty much the end of the year which means.
IT'S TIME FOR THE 2003 VISALIA BLOG AWARDS.
All the judges have sent in their votes and oh goodness, I can't believe it. I won! I WON! I have the sweetest most sickest blog out of all the V-Towners. Thank you, thank you. I'd like to thank all the people I write about, negative postees and positive ones. We're all in this together, I just am the genius who puts it together. LOL.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY HOPE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OK. I've been a ninja for like 20 min. and I'm loving it. I can't even take too much time to post or the bad guys well get me!!! Bounce around and stalk wherever you go. Keep low. Be ready for anything.
I need a better source of motivation. I need to be a ninja. If I was a ninja, I'd do my job well. I'd kill with accuracy and speed. I wait on people all the time when in truth I should be making them wait on me. I'm better than I treat myself and it's time to start acting like it. This is known as ninja lifestyle.
Today sucks. Home alone for lunch. Today sucks.
So I wae up this morning to my dad saying, "Josh? Josh? You going to school? It's 9:30!"
Arg, this weekend was so full of everything. I'm crazy tired and still haven't gotten to school. If they find me home they'll be mad but I honestly don't feel good anyway. I need to get there for English cuz we have to plan out the rest of our presentation for English. Well I hope you all had a good day. Get some sleep or you'll end up like me! :) HAHA!

Do you realize, that you have the most beautiful face... Do you realize...
Formal ROCKED! Too late to elaborate... Catch you tomorrow.

This is a picture of my dad's cousin Don, and his family. They came over for Thanksgiving this year. They were so much fun. We get to see them about every 2 years or so. I hope I stay in touch with them so my kids can have as much fun with their cousins as I have had with Ashley, Monique and Janae. LOL. Can't wait to see you guys again soon.
So the girls had a big soccer tournament in Fresno all day today and we're definitely gonna be cutting it close with trying to get all the dance stuff done. But before we can even get stressed out about that, Carlee Ann has to roll her ankle in the big game. She's probably not gonna be able to dance or be very mobile at all. We'll probably have to put her in a wheel chair, but I figure that it'll be hillarious.

Haha, so I got in my car about 6:30 and took off down Caldwell to go to Krispy Kreme. The kids DITCHED me and didn't want to go, so KG text messaged me right as I heard the guy on Cool 92.9 say "Who's the mystery voice?!?!" and he played a clip of some lady yelling, "I'm hot! I'm HOT!!!" For some reason, I knew who it was so I called the number and said CHER!!! It was Cher and I won a Pirates of the Carribean DVD. Then he asked me how I knew it was Cher, and what I was doing up so late watching Jay Leno. Doug in the Morning made me blush.
SOUNDS LIKE:
Naaaaaaaaaan-tsingonyaaaaaaaaahh-mabagithibaba
In the Lion King when the sunlight first breaks the horizon. Oooo, it gives me the chills! Haha.
I'm up so early because we're going to Krispey Kreme (sp?) today at 6:30. The girls are leaving for a tournament. I get so frustrated when they're so busy. But then again, it forces me to do stuff like homework. If I could always hang out with KG, we'd probably just sit around watching TV. Part of me is glad she's so busy because it helps me realize how much time I spend just sitting around on my butt. Then after she's done with soccer and I'm done with some random project that I randomly start, so much time has gone by that it just makes me all the more happier to see her.

I can't stand that fat people mess clothing up for us short skinny guys. More than half the U.S. is overweight and that causes clothing manufacturers to fit their needs. I'm sorry, but I don't care about how the fat people look and whether their shirts fit around their big guts. They're already fat, why should they stress about how they look? I dunno, but it messes everything up for me. I'm genuinely upset here, don't think I'm just bagging on fat people. I love fat people. I just want a shirt that fits me.
I've resorted to making my own dress shirt from scratch. I'm gonna start tonight and hopefully finish tonight, or at least by Saturday. ARG!!!
Today will be a good day. I need to get ready quickly and get to school to do my HW. If I can get that all done, I'll be content. Wish me luck.

To clear this up once and for all... These are the creepy African lyrics to that Circle of Life song. I don't want to hear anyone sing it any differently anymore. If you're gonna sing it, sing it right!
Nants ingonyama bagithi baba ... There comes a lion
Sithi uhhmm ingonyama ... Oh yes, it's a lion
Nants ingonyama bagithi baba ... There comes a lion
Sithi uhhmm ingonyama ... Oh yes, it's a lion
Ingonyama ... Lion
Siyo Nqoba ... We're going to conquer
Ingonyama ... Lion
Ingonyama nengw' enamabala ... Here is a lion and a tiger
Going to the Men's Warehouse today to shop for a suit of some sort. I'm getting excited about saturday!
Yes, it's 1:35 in the morning but I was just so excited about editing the new footage that we got tonight for our English project. I put it all together in a powerpoint style with video in the background. It's tight! That's all I have to say. It's not the finished product either. Taylor and I are going in on it together. We're gonna brainstorm and come up with something awesome!!!

Dance dance revolution!!! OK, tell me if this was the awesomest idea ever: Matthew and I take the girls to this SICK meadow on the way up to the Summit for lunch on Saturday instead of dinner?
Heck yeah that idea rocks. But the girls have soccer and stupid hair appointments. Darn them. I would do KG's hair for freee! Now we're gonna eat grilled cheese or something.
We shouldn't waste our energy on trying to make others feel bad about themselves. The people that do this need to figure it out. That is not the best way to be happy.
I think I'm going to do some filming today with James and Taylor. This should be sooo fun. I found this awesome picture of a NIGERIAN TRIBAL WARRIOR what we're going to dress up like when we dance around the fire.

Just got back from delivering cookies to AJ, Jessica and Matthew. It was a blast. AJ's getting certified for scuba too! YAY.
I need to find something to do. Otherwise, I'll just sit here and eat this day-old pizza 'till it's gone. My joy from yesterday's project is still driving me. Did I tell you?!? We were assigned a multimedia project in English today, James Wiest and Taylor and I are in a group. Oh man we're gonna rock their freakin' socks off!
The Album of KG has been updated as of yesterday. I accidently put the picture of the dummie project up there too. If you haven't gotten a chance to watch the Gatsby flick, do it soon! It's taking up a lot of my space at Angelfire. Today was awesome. Parents are gone in Arizona.
KEG and CAB's Video
This may be confusing to most, but this is the only way I can think of to play the video:
1 - RIGHT-Click the link above and select "save target as" and choose ALL FILES under "save as"
2 - choose a destination
3 - if the file doesn't save as WMV open it with Windows Media Player

Helped the wives with their English Project on the Great Gatsby. I may have a copy of the finished project up for grabs online soon. It's a re-enactment of Gatsby and Daisy hitting that chick then driving away. Quite entertaining. I'll have some new photos up as well. Sleep well Visalia. I love to love the people I love.
What a wonderful night. Sleep well V-Town.

I got rubber bands. ARG this sucks.
I suddenly had a crazy idea/dream of fame. I dreamt that I went to google.com and typed in "Joshua Perry" and when the results came up, the first one was: How the world fell in love with wonderboy, Joshua Perry
The website explained how I started entertaining people through my writings on the web. Then progressed from there. My name was as rampant as Britney Spears' all over the web and television. The only thing I didn't dream of was the visual publicity, which would counterbalance the wonder of being the nation's favorite boy-next-door.
C'est vendredi! YAY! Tonight is Christmas show everyone! You better go see it. If you don't see it tonight, you have one more chance tomorrow.
I've been sleeping so well lately, I wonder why?

KG doesn't ever check this website. Isn't that sad? I love to check this site, I love all the new posts. I just eat it up.
listen to Phish - Train Song
I just realized that KG had such a long list of nicknames-
Kaitlyn (real name for those of you who were wondering)
KG
KEG
Kage
Rage
"GIRL" (from when we were little, lol)
The Beast
Katie (her parents call her that)
Sometimes I call her K-G-Galli, but that hasn't really caught on yet.
I was thinking about this last night when I was driving to Bakersfield with her father. I kept calling her KG when mentioning her, and I can't imagine that he appreciates that very much. I wouldn't want my daughter's boyfriend to make up some stupid nickname for her. I would kick his rump before he called my daughter something like that. I gotta practice some other name.
Wednesday, December 03, 2003
Went to KEG and CAB's soccer game in Bakersfield but Kage wasn't supposed to know. So I was all trying to sneak into then around the field right as Carl pointed me out. Just cuz KG wouldn't want to play if I was there. Anyway, it was fun. I love KG's family, they're soooo funny to be around.
In the words of my math teacher Mr. Huckabay,
"Here goes another easy day in the big city, huhah!"

You know those little thumbnail Polaroid cameras? I just found the funniest pictures of CAB and Whitney. They both have makeup smeared everywhere. It's awesome. Lifetime savers right there. Those cameras are tight. I'm buying more film.
My mom is a sweat heart, she excused me for senior ditch day yesterday, no Q's asked. I love her.
HAHA, I tricked you! I dyed it black. KG is the only one who doesn't like it. Everyone else gave me a high five. But seriously it was so funny to see how many people were like, "I thought you bleached it?" like all of 3 people said that so obviously NO ONE reads this site, even though my sweat, blood and tears go into it. (not to mention stray hairs, gross) James came up to me today and said, "You bleached it black?" I love you James, you're so cute. Thank God for happiness and friendship.
SHOUT OUT to BLAKE, thanks for the email bro, nice to hear from you
Well I feel like a stupid blonde. Yay Joshua, you did it again, you made it worse for yourself. KG was laughing at me before she's even seen me. It's so bad. Gotta write my Econ paper. Oh man.
Monday, December 01, 2003
So I was so lonely today that I bleached my hair. It's so gay looking too. I wish I didn't do it. Don't laugh at me please.
Tired of being alone. Maybe I just deserve this. Everyone's unavailable; I'm going to be unavailable someday.
Yesterday, coming down from the mountain, Gregory and I pulled a mean trick on Matthew. As you could probably guess, he was SLEEPING in back so Gregory suddenly hit the brakes and we both yelled as loud as we could while coming down the steepest windiest part. It was soooo funny, we're sooo mean. LOL.
