I'm about to start another horrid journey to Wal*Mart for some necessities. (Don't tell Devin...he'll punch me with his Lowe's Foods branded fist...) One of the necessities includes a padded manilla envelope that will be used to send Caroline's video professor cds back. That's right, the ones that I made her order so that I could get a free iPod, which I'm still working on by the way! It turns out they charge you $70 if you don't call and cancel and return. The call was like tapping into some gestapo line. First she was trying to fake me out that she was nice then she suspected that I wasn't said "Caroline Neely" and began her interrogation, also informing us, in a very threatening manner, that our call was being recorded. SHEESH! Needless to say, I am no longer recommending video professor to any of my other friends.
So let me give you all a little more on Devin. Devin Dimattia, DimattiaFilms, is lined up to be my new roommate in Schwartz for next year. Now aside from having HUGE shoes to fill in replacing Brett Roach up here in 314, it is still yet to be seen what kind of situation living with him will be. I'm sure we'll meet soon concerning our pet peeves, ideal living arrangements, ect. ect. Hopefully it'll work out for the best. As you can see Devin is a film student like myself. I met Devin through the Flicker Film Society, the campus film studies club, and worked with him more closely as team members of Nuclear Space Zombie on short film "T.P." that we did for the One Take Film Festival. Devin was a long time employee of Lowe's Foods and remains loyal to his store, while taking every opportunity to preach the evils of Wal*Mart.
Will our like interest cause a clash of personality? Will I ever be able to shop at Wally World again? Will our room melt due to awesomeness caused by the presence of two Apple computers in it at once? Stay tuned to find out.
That's nothing a little lemon drop in the eye won't fix young lady!

Nathan, you need to have this entry bronzed and covered in...um, guacamole. I just finished sending back MY Video Professor CD and I had similar problems getting though to the operator on the other line that I DIDN'T want a freakin' buy-one-get-one-free offer on "How to Double-Click Stuff" or whatever he was trying to sell to me.
In response to your Wal-Mart spree, you should meet my friends. Each one of them works at a different grocery store in Greensboro (Winn-Dixie, Harris-Teeter, and Lowes) and we'll often share stories about evil customers that don't understand what "sale price with $10 additional purchase" means. In other news, I will continue to preach about the evils of Wal*Mart and their sinister temptations of quality merchandise at low, low prices (heathens!) so there! If we can't get our differences resolved by next year, at least we'll have a good reality TV show on our hands! :-)

...it's going to be something alright...
Maybe you'll have better luck when you call and cancel my subscription....which I hope to God is on your to-do list.
