Yeah, so Aaron got a hold of my journal. Since him and Dad moved out I've been totally lax with security. I don't like the hassel, but I guess he can't be trusted.

I'm staying in TO tonight, I don't want to go home to hang out with him. He made no plans to see my friends and I'll see him Sunday.

I'm trying the Mac OS X Lj client. Shit this OS is fucking tight. If I had money, I'd have a Mac. There's no doubt about that. I was playing with Textedit and playing with kerning and ligature! Watch fucking notepad do that. Heck, MS Word doesn't do that! It's standard in Quartz. Man that's fucking tight. I'm just wondering how proprietary PDF is.

Bri better get here soon, the night isn't young forever. He's out gettin' his Go-Go boy groove on.

Peace.

I love OS X. It's my kind of operating system. :o)

And yeah, Cryo did a great job of the LJ client for OS X. I hope I can get the source code (it's open source) so I can start learning the ins and outs of OS X programming.

The Shite you be in go-go boy.

You live in your own little world don't you?

Simple courtesy, people in your life, they're all distorted by your own precieved reality as through the lens of this box by the desk here.

Being home for thanksgiving like you promised you would is a minor oversight in your world, but messing with your precious computer is yet, viewed as a capital sin. (which by the way, seemed at the time like the only possible way to contact your abbheritional self)

I explained you have obligations, you seem to understand, you lie to all of us saying you're making your way home. What the hell??

You lie straight to me, then have the audacity to mention my name and lack of trust in the same sentance!!!

Like seriously, do you have a concusion or any other sort of major head trauma??

Seriously think long and hard about what means what to you boy, cause you're in it like you've never been.

Btw. If I sound mad, it's because I am. If you walked in the door right now you had better get some ice for the bruises I'd put on your selfish face you selfish sack of crap.

But don't worry about Mom. She's not angary, so you're safe from actual punishment (which I guess is all you really care about). Sad a bit maybe - so I decerned from the tears as she said, and I quote "He doesn't care about my feelings at all".

because, you know...throwing temper tantrums while pretending to be him, airing family laundry in front of unknown numbers of complete strangers, and threatening physical violence, followed up with a jaded little bit of family guilt trip makes you seem so much more responsible somehow...

or not.

I don't think i'll be coming home today.

Yup, welcome to my disfunctional little life.

He does it because he loves me. Right? Right.

Thanks for sticking your neck out Alex.

Wow... sounds like holidays around my house--which I never attended, either. You know, Brodie, I SO wouldn't want to go back home after reading all the stuff your bro said here. Still, I can only imagine how much your mom needs you there right now, eh?

You are probably at home by now anyway and all this will be a moot point.

*hugs*

Remember, it may be your parent's house, and it may be your brother, but you're still both adults, and if he assaults you, a call to the police would be completely acceptable.

Well I doubt you'll get this, but what the hell:

I'm so glad your friends feel free to make comment.
Good to have good friends right? and you know, they really do sound like you. It's that whole shoot-the-messenger thing. Is that like some sort of fad?

I'm even more glad that you can't use a "telephone" to communicate your planned actions. Rather you post it on your webpage. Isn't it nice to have a communication medium where you don't _really_ have to face anyone? But it's the only way you seem to want to communcate at all so you really force the hand don't you?

I no more wanted to turn matters into some sort of psuedo-political-slashdot-like-debate-issue-where-
every-self-proclaimbed-expert-feels-free-to-give- their-two-cents-worth than you do. But really, being to cowardly to _call_ and say you can't come home (for thanksgiving when war might be breaking....), you gotta admit, there's some real poetic justice in that.

Now just come home already.

Correct me if wrong, but wasn't it YOU that first brought this all here to this forum with your trite, petty, and impossibly childish "I'm Brodie, most selfish person in the whole world" post when you hijacked your brother's journal?

Guess you should have thunk just a bit harder before you decided to splay your disfunctional crap all across someone's journal for hundreds of complete strangers to read then. You set the stage. You played out the drama. Now you want to whine that the critics didn't defend it as the most brilliant thing in the world?

Yeah. You're what? 12?

i think, in what has got to be one of the worst butchered spellings i have ever seen, he meant "apparitional". and even that word in that context is a stretch. an apparition is similar to a ghost. it appears and disappears. "apparitional" may be a word, but if it is, it sure doesn't get used much.

Suprisingly enough, it is a word.

But even I had to look it up to see if it was, and I thought I was an expert at ScrabbleTM, but that is a good bonus word. If you could ever get it into a triple word score spot.

One more thing.

I'd just like you refer you to my Journal Brodie, which doesn't talk directly to you btw, but you will probably agree with some things I've said.

Other than that, I know that you know my trash talk, so I know your not afraid to come home. Also, if you get this, please make all efforts possible to call when you leave the Toronto bus or train station. This may mean calling collect. At this point the purpose for this is merely logistical, as we'd like to know when to set the table. Thank you.

-Aaron

P.S. I've been trying to read and write in German lately, so my perception of what letters do is becoming rapidly distorted.
