My rants will be orgasms for your eyes.

It’s been a short three weeks. One more day and I’m on a plane headed to the land of the rising sun. I’m looking forward to all the bizarre things Japan has to offer. I’m starting to miss my son already. I’ve spent everyday back with him, and watching him learn and grow the past few weeks has been amazing. Been a lot of ups and downs, but things are looking up again. It’s amazing how many continues my life seems to have, and I’m not even using any cheat codes.

After finally getting my iPhone 4, my interests in Twitter seems to have rekindled itself, possible due to the fact that I can switch between Facebook and Twitterrific on the fly. So follow me on Twitter (here) and add me on Facebook (and here)! Still looking for a twitter app with push notifications, and if anyone knows of one, I’d appreciate you telling me. Closest thing I’ve found was Boxcar but thats just a third party thing.

Foursquare has crowned me the mayor of my local 7-11, and I can feel the corruption of power taking over already. That’s another app I’ve found myself becoming more involved in. Despite my uneasiness of putting my current location out there for every potential stalker to suddenly show up and ruin my day. Despite this I have been using it religiously (stalk me here!).

Bedtime. Thanks for stopping by. I plan on really sticking with a update schedule, its a work in progress.

“They say we can’t be livin’ like this for the rest of our lives.
Well, we gon’ be livin’ like this for the rest of tonight.
And you know they gon’ be bangin’ this shit for rest of our lives.
So live fast and die young, live fast and die young, live fast and die young.”

excerpt from Live Fast, Die Young by Rick Ross

Well according to my editor my vacation from blogging is officially over. Yeah that’s right, I have a editor. I’m hot shit I know. Not much has really happened since I got home. I’ve been spending a lot of time with my son, who by the way is a asshole. He’s my son so I can say that. I don’t know where to start with him. I’ll start with the good stuff first. He’s learned a lot of new words since I’ve been gone, two of my least favorites being “mine” and “no”. We had a long discussion on who could say the Xbox 360 was his. I think he understands now who’s the Alpha male of the household, and as of a few days ago I have resigned from the position. He’s wearing big boy panties at the moment, minus the Buzz Lightyear and Woody the cowboy print, I think that’s pretty awesome.  He’s also using the potty, which is also amazing because I hate changing diapers. Attempt #1 at standing up failed miserably and we will retry at a much later date. All in all he’s a pretty cool kid, learning how to turn on the Xbox 360, turn on the controller and starting his Cat in the Hat DVD. I must note that my sanity can’t handle watching that movie anymore, and if he was someone else’s kid I would have broken it a long time ago. What? Yeah I said it.

What’s next? The iPhone 4. It has to be the best thing I’ve ever purchased. I have never been a big supporter of Apple, I love their products, but my loyalty usually falters depending on my mood. But after getting the iPhone 4, I will admit now that I am now a loyal supporter of all things Apple. To those of you who have heard the rumors, yes I do own a Zune. I have two actually, a 30GB and a 16GB Zune HD. Your head is exploding isn’t it? How is it possible to profess my love for Apple and then say I own a Zune in the same paragraph? It’s fairly easy, all kinds of words can be thrown together willy nilly. I do love Apple, but I like the Zune software and music selection more than I like iTunes. What does that mean exactly? It means at any point in time I will have my iPhone in one pocket and my Zune in the other. Mr. Jobs please don’t kill me.

Japan in 4 days! As much as I hate leaving my son again, I have to do my job. I don’t think he’ll mind all the candies and toys I’ll bring him back. On the list of activities will be climbing Mt. Fuji, partaking in some Habu Saki, real ramen and the best for last: 59 ft, life size Gundam statue. I’m currently learning how to say “Can I pilot it?” and “Pretty Pleeeeaaaassseeee” in Japanese.  I’ll keep everyone posted on how that goes. Thanks for stopping by! Until next time.

“So here’s to living life miserable,
and here’s to all the lonely stories that I’ve told.
Maybe drinking wine will validate my sorrow,
Every man needs a must and mine could be the bottle.”

excerpt from The Death of Me by City and Colour.

“When you cry a piece of my heart dies,
knowing that I may have been the cause.
If you were to leave and fulfill someone else’s dreams,
I think I might totally be lost.

excerpt from The Girl by City and Colour

Really good band. Check them out.

First off I’d like to apologize for my sporadic posting schedule. It’s not that I’ve been particularly busy, it’s just that I’ve been a tad bit lazy. Attributing to that is my addiction the the TV show Weeds. Almost done with season 3 and I can’t seem to do anything else but watch it. Although there are plenty of what the fuck moments where I think the show could have ended due to Nancy’s stupidity and naivety. She almost dies like every other episode, but she’s hot so I’m sure that helps her squeak by. Anyways, I can’t tell you how excited I am to be going home at the end of the week. I can hardly believe that it’s been almost 81 days since I left home. It’s knowing that this time next week I’ll be at home with my son that helps ease a lot of the homesickness.

The second thing I’d like to apologize for is my Ustream schedule. Although I’m pretty positive that no one is really disappointed that I haven’t done another one, I’m pretty upset with myself for planning them and then not following through with them. I will be doing one tonight at 6PM EST. That’s right, set your alarms or reminders or whatever it is that you use to make yourself remember. Mind you I can talk to myself, but I’d rather not. My trip to Japan is coming up fast, and Rosetta Stone is doing a good job of helping me become accustomed to the language. I will admit that I’m more interested in learning Japanese than Italian so it’s going a lot easier.

Listening to some of the stories from friends who have been to Japan, I am both excited and nervous about the experience. I was told the other day that there are actual used pantie machines and five floor sex shops. Leading me to the conclusion that I won’t be partaking in everything Japan has to offer. More on that later I suppose, I think it’ll be one of the topics I discuss tonight during my Ustream. Hope to see you all there. Thanks for reading. Sayounara!

“Bones and broken homes, Bones and broken homes.
I’ve been through here many times,
But the path is gone, theres something wrong.
Didn’t leave a letter when you wrote me off with no phone call.”

excerpt from Bones by Gob

“Remembering, everything, about my world and when you came.
Wondering, the change you’d bring, means nothing else would be the same.
Did you know, what you were doing, did you know?
Did you know how you would move me well, I don’t really think so.
But the night came down and swept us away.
And the stars they seemed, to paint the most elaborate scene today.

excerpt from We’re So Far Away by Mae

It takes a lot to get me upset, and maybe the word upset is a bit much. I think I was more annoyed than anything else. Had a conversation with a “follower” last night, and if you don’t understand what I mean when I say that, I’m talking about someone who doesn’t make decisions or form opinions for themselves. Mind you, when a follower gets called on being a follower, the minute they change their story, they officially become a douche. This conversation happened on a friend’s Facebook page last night. I’m going to post it in it’s entirety. It started from a friend asking everyone on her Facebook if they borrowed her copy of Akira.

Douchebag:
“Fuck Akira, go watch Elfen Lied, Claymore, Gantz & Black Lagoon.”

Me:
“Akira is a classic. Elfen Lied was a awesome series. Claymore sucked, Gantz was crazy as shit but it was ok. Black Lagoon couldnt hold me past episode 3.”

Douchebag:
“Claymore was anime of the year in ‘08, you’re high.”

Me:
“Claymore may have been the anime of 08 to someone, but that title was probably based on like 5 peoples opinion. It just didnt grab me, and it takes a lot for me not to finish a series.”

Douchebag:
“Ok, whatever, you’re obviously clueless, if you look at most top anime lists EVER, Claymore is there. Top 5 in the last 5-10 years, it’s there. So, because you don’t like what fans & critics consider to be an instant classic, we’re all wrong?!? K. What, you must be one of those Adult Swim anime fans, go back to watching DBZ & Inuyasha.”

INTERMISSION: Yes this son of a bitch called me a Adult Swim anime fan, and told me to go back to watching DBZ and Inuyasha. But I digress.

Me:
“Who makes those top anime lists valid? Because one list might not be the same as another websites. It may have been in the top on whatever list you saw, but I’ve never seen it on any list that I’ve seen. Plus how can you rate Akira which is a movie, against Claymore which is a series. Do they go to every single anime fan and ask their opinion? Is there some kind of vote? Because I didn’t get a ballot card asking me if thought Claymore is one of the top anime series ever. Your opinion is your opinion and it isn’t wrong, just like mine isn’t wrong for NOT liking Claymore. I don’t read other websites and take other peoples opinions of anime like a teet in the mouth and except their opinion as law. I base my opinions on anime based on me watching it and what it has to offer me, and Claymore just didn’t hold up to my standards, thus it didn’t get finished.”

Son of a Bitch (Formally known as Douchebag):
“Google it & find out the general consensus ratings on it by fans & critics, PLUS I watched it BEFORE I’d heard it was acclaimed, came recommended by a friend first, so no preconceived notions or self-fulfilling prophecies. Yeah, one man’s trash is another man’s treasure, but having watched a TON of anime series, it’s one the best I’ve ever seen. &, even though quality is quality no matter if it’s a series, OVA or movie, I wasn’t comparing the two, Akira, just like Metropolis before it, were incredible FOR THEIR TIME, their cult following now among anime noobs is mostly bandwagon hype in my opinion.”

INTERMISSION: Notice the story change from implying he watched Claymore because it’s one of the top anime series of 2008, to now watching it BEFORE he knew it was one of the top series of 2008.

Me:
“Like I said that is your opinion. I watched Akira back before everyone started calling it a classic, just like you did with Claymore before everyone (you’ve talked to, and websites you’ve seen) started calling it one of the best series ever. I don’t need to Google it, because what you are failing to realize is that ALL of those websites and their “best” lists are someone else’s opinion. Because for all the websites I find agreeing with YOUR opinion, I’ll find just as many agreeing with mine. Does that mean I’m more right that you or vice versa? No it doesn’t. One man’s trash is another mans treasure, and I’m sure there are plenty of series that I’ve seen that you will hold in the same regard as I do Claymore. It may been one of the best anime series you’ve seen, but it’s one of the worst that I have. This bandwagon hype that you are referring to may start out as just that, until those people actually watch said series/movie in question. If they still hold the series/movie in the same light as when they jumped on the bandwagon then it just is what it is. The bandwagon that you’re knocking for Akira and Metropolis is the same one you’re driving for Claymore.”

INTERMISSION: *brushes off shoulder Jay-Z style.”

He continued after I apologized to my friend for having this debate on her page, and that I was done with the subject to tell me to stop ranting. Which being the bigger man that I am, I decided not to reply. I thought I handled the situation like an adult, I’m an asshole, but sometimes I can be a polite asshole. The basis of this story people? Don’t believe or take someone else’s opinion of something as fact, form your own. Then only do you have the right to start a argument with someone.  And for the life of you, don’t call me an Adult Swim anime fan. I take my love of anime very seriously, and if you’re going to step on my metaphorically brand new sneakers by calling me that, then please have weapons of mass destructions to defend yourself in the war of words that will follow. Thanks for reading!

Officially ONE week until I’m home! Who’s excited? I’m going to kiss my son’s cheeks off. Until next time.

“So I’ll end this shit with a Fuck you and have a nice day.”

Lotto VS.  B. Rabbit final battle of 8 Mile.

We all do it. But more on that later. Geekboy Presents had it’s first Ustream last night and I think it went awesomely. I would like to apologize for doing it completely wasted, but I still think it went smoothly. I’ll make sure that the next time I have a Ustream there will be plenty of notice, but I am planning on doing one tonight. Hope to you some of you there!

Haven’t written in a week so I’m going to try and do a recap of the past couple days. Minus the lip piercing I’ve been talking about forever, I got a new tattoo. It’s funny because I feel like I’m becoming myself, if that makes sense. I mean I know tattoos and piercings don’t make a person different, but some how I feel different. My lip piercing is healing nicely, although the bar is short so I have to keep pushing on it so my big fat lip doesn’t heal over it. Going to get that changed out this week.

Almost down to single digits in my countdown to coming home! Right now it’s at 11 days and a wake up. I have a lot to look forward to when I get home, I can’t fucking wait. I am glad that before I make my way home I’ve purged myself of some bad memories and people who weren’t good for my life. Taking my own advice from a few posts ago and deciding that some people I was still giving plenty of chances to and still continued to fuck them up aren’t even worth being friends. I’ll let someone deal with all that crazy.

-Isaiah

“Tell me girl what were you thinking?
Hit me with something that will make this worth my time.
Take it back, take it all back now.
Every promise I made was just another mistake with you.
Tell the truth if you think that you can take it.
But I know, you wont.
I never felt so all alone
But when it was safe I turned my back and the blade came through.”

excerpt from I Can Barely Breathe by Just Surrender

“Well I know the trouble when the trouble starts.
I know the signals of a straying heart.
I know the stirrings of a double-cross.
I see suspicions arise around you.

It’s a shame, I know, but it all shakes out real slow,
when the follies of your weekend hang like smoke onto your clothes.
And the shame of it grows when you whisper it nice and low.
But all the walls have ears my darling, and all bad things get known.
And I know about you. I know about you.”

excerpt from I Know About You by Dashboard Confessional

So I got my lip pierced. Right bottom lip. As soon as the swelling goes down I’ll post pics. Other than that milestone I was able to grab some awesome souvenirs this weekend, and I had a blast the entire time. Happy 4th of July to everyone!

Seriously? I mean seriously. Seriously? I have never been the most confident guy in the world, let alone the most conceited. On top of finding out from my first girlfriend I ever had that everyone in high school thought I was a pretty boy and stuck on myself. I mean in high school I didn’t have nearly as much self esteem as I do now, so that came as a complete surprise to me. But that’s neither here nor there. What I’m getting at is Formspring. Quite possibly the most entertaining and creepy website I have ever signed up for. Mind you I love answering random questions about myself. But there has to be a line, and a few months ago that line was crossed, danced on and even pissed on. It seems that it has started up again.

It started with someone asking questions about me being a jerk and a player and treating women like shit. Mind you if you talk to any woman who has dated me I’m sure that you’ll hear the exact opposite of those claims. Then it ventured towards asking how big my penis was. Flattering as it may be to know someone out there is pining over the details of my member, at the same time asking me seven times a day is a bit much. Especially when I say that I’m not going to answer. Seriously though it’s just a penis, mind you I would like to think there’s some sort of ancient magic that surrounds my penis that leaves any woman sweaty, speechless and satisfied. But what guy doesn’t think that? What I’m getting at is that if you’re the person that’s asking about my penis and you take one thing from this post, let it be that if I wanted you to know, you’d know. Stop asking. It’s creepy. Also please don’t stalk me, I am no where near as interesting as you’ve convinced yourself that I am. If you ask me questions about things I’ve posted on my Facebook or Twitter, be woman or man enough to respond there.

I like Formspring. I like answering questions, but seriously you creepazoids are taking all the fun out of it. I all about someone asking a question to be funny, by all means, I welcome those questions. But if you have to ask yourself if you should ask a question, maybe you shouldn’t ask it. But if you seriously MUST know the answer, ask me directly. I’m pretty open about my life and have no problem answering a question, especially if you bring it to me directly.

The weekend is quickly approaching! I’m so excited that I’m tingling a bit. I even packed today knowing that I wouldn’t be leaving until Friday. I’m hoping I can find a piercing place, shit maybe even a tattoo place and get something small done. Also congrats to me for posting 4 days in a row, and also writing this almost completely wasted! I think I can actually get the hang of posting 5 days a week, leaving the weekend as free days. Who would like that? Also if there is anyone interested in asking me questions on Formsrping, feel free. You can see my page here. Until tomorrow! Hope everyone is having a good day, and continues to do so!

“Baby, don’t hold on too long ’cause that’s how them stories start out,
And all those girls that played me eat your muthafuckin heart out.
And when you get to talkin’ bout the greatest, I just really hope that you’d think of me.
I’m doin my thing ’cause I’m tryin to be unforgettable.”

excerpt from Unforgettable by Drake

I want to be original. I liked to think sometimes that what I say and do most times are of my own design. I think I’m influenced by almost everything around me. But at the end of the day I’m just me. I got called a asshole today by someone who couldn’t handle a joke, and I think that anyone who knows me personally knows that my sense of humor can take some getting used to. I have friends who probably think that I’m the sweetest and nicest guy around, and I have friends who know me, that know that if I’m left unchained someone is getting their feelings hurt. But people dont understand when you tell them that everyone’s behavior adapts and changes depending on the company surrounding them. Think I’m lying? Then you’re stupid. Everyone has friends who they have to hold back a little bit of themselves, and friends that get the full blown version of you. That’s life. Some people are just sensitive. Take me and my cousin for example. Tony is one of the few people who gets me, and our friendship goes beyond just blood. We greet each other with a barrage of insults, it mostly being us questioning each others sexuality. It’s just how we’ve always been, to him I’m a pole smoker, and to me he’ll always be a ass pirate. That’s love there. I can be sweet, shit I am sweet, but I like to joke. I like to tease, to poke fun. Get over it, get used to it or keep it moving.

You can’t always be nice to people, and I’m all about treating people the way you want to be treated. But where’s the line? When does it go from being nice to someone for the sake of being nice to being taken advantage of? I have plenty of t-shirts that still have foot prints on them, and they are a constant reminder that sometimes you have to take a step back. Sometimes you have to assess the situation to see if you’re being yourself or what someone wants you to be. If this trip has shown me anything it’s that I have to be Isaiah. I think I’ve found a bit of confidence in myself that I didn’t have when I left. It’s something I needed to have, something that took a long time to realize and something that took a lot of heartache for me to notice. Basically personality upgrade complete. Version 2.0 is online, all the bugs have been worked out and my brain has it’s top techs keeping the system running smooth. Don’t be alarmed, I’m not going to go around calling people bitches and hoes, or telling people to suck a dick or to fuck off. Unless it warranted of course. Everyone needs swift kick in the ass, and I have big feet. I can be the most sweet and loving person you’ll ever meet, caring and affectionate, and if I say so myself a damn good lover. But don’t cross me or take my kindness for weakness, because I won’t just smile it off anymore. Capeesh?

To everyone who gets me, thank you. It’s hard to find people who accept you for who you are, and when you find those people you need to hold on and cherish that friendship. I deeply and sincerely value yours. To everyone who doesn’t like me for whatever reason, well bite me. R-tards.

Got a big four day weekend coming up, followed by the completion of my left half sleeve. Watch out now, because I’m going to be dead sexy. Sexier even. Lip piercing? Yay? Nay? It’s going to happen regardless. As always I appreciate everyone who visits Geekboy Presents and reads my babbling. I was asked what the lyrics mean at the end of my most recent posts, I guess I should have explained it when I started doing it. Well normally the lyrics are something I relate to, or depends on the mood I’m in. No more no less, not necessarily directed at anyone in particular. Thanks for stopping by, hope you all are having a great day!

“Seduction, seduce
Ain’t nobody who’s as good at what I do
Cause one minute she loves you, the next she don’t
She’s been stolen from you, it’s like a… (verbal seduction)”

excerpt from Seduction by Eminem

“I’m about whatever man..
Fuck what they be talking about,
They opinon doesn’t count,
We the only thing that matters (oooh)
So we do it how we do it
All up in your face, man, I hate to put you through it”

excerpt from Up All Night by Drake

I actually said down yesterday and had a little guideline about things I wanted to blog about for this week, but like most of my great ideas I scrapped them. I’ve been listening to Never Shout Never and Sleeping With Sirens all day, and I’m thinking now that wasn’t such a great idea. But ignoring the memories those songs bring to light, it has fueled the motivation for some poetry. More on that later, maybe even a bonus post?

I finally got my order from Zumiez today and must say ordering my jeans blindly actually paid off. My non-existent ass looks quite good in them. The count down has begun for the trip home. Finally. Missing my son learning little words has hurt a bit, and it took everything in me to keep from celebrating his second birthday yesterday by polishing off the rest of the vodka in my fridge. But alas, enough woe is me. The 4th of July is coming up! I don’t know about any of your but my weekend is going to be fucking awesome. Like I said in yesterdays post, I will be spending the weekend in Florence and Rome. I have no idea whats in store for me, but hopefully it involves lots of pictures, booze and fun. I’ll definitely keep anyone who’s interested up to date.

I’ve enlisted the help of a good friend for designing the logo for Geekboy Presents, and in true geek fashion the conversation went from a simple hello, to arguing about how much better Kamen Rider Blade is vice Kamen Rider Hibiki. Needless to say I think I won, but she’ll probably tell you otherwise. I will say that Blade’s King Form will demolish anything Hibiki has in his arsenal. Here it is, and i’ll let you be the judge:

Yeah I know what you’re thinking, that Kamen Rider Blade is a bad ass. It’s ok, I agree 100%. I’m sure my messenger is going to get blown up as soon as this post hits the press, “Oh why didnt you put Hibiki’s final form up and blah blah blah”. Ha. Because Hibiki sucks donkey dick, thats why. Hope everyone is having a great day!

“So tell me how does it feel, how does it feel to be like you?
I think your mouth should be quiet cause it never tells the truth.
So tell me, so tell me why, why does it have to be this way?
Why can’t things ever change?”

excerpt from With Ears To See and Eyes To Hear by Sleeping With Sirens

I am running out of words to say to you,
wondering why I’m wasting my time,
Thinking back and wondering why I’m such a fool for loving you.
And I get to the point where, all I wanted for us to make up.
But its not that easy cause girl you move on so quickly,
Keeping a boy like me at the edge of his seat.

excerpt from Your Biggest Fan by NEVER SHOUT NEVER!
