other than the reference to poker, I'm currently working towards a normal sleep schedule, routines, and maybe even lists... but not like erica. she makes a list every night of what she has to do the next day. which weirds me out. I don't want to be like that, but I definitely have much respect for people who take the time to be THAT responsible.

anyways. ugh, my sleep schedule is rediculous, but sleep schedules are the hardest thing to change. probably about as hard as losing 20 pounds in 3 weeks. I've never done it, but I hear it's really hard. I'd be close to non-existant without that 20 pounds...

ANYWAYS... wish me luck.

anybody have any good hobbies I could take up? and please don't say lists.

alright, well, I woke up at 8p.m. two nights ago, and I've only slept an hour since then... sick huh? 35 out of 36 hours have been awake. time for bed. just thought I'd throw that on the table for crazy things peter has done.

alright, so I am currently playing poker online, watching tv, and listening to music, and blogging... crazy multitasking going on.

no luck with poker... I've gotten good hands and no flop.
I get bad hands, and kickass flops come up.
I get an ok hand, I stay in, I actually hit something, and someone has a boat.
ugly man... ugly.

anyways, I woke up at 8 today. and yes, pm. soon it will become a normal sleep schedule, and when it does, I'm gonna try and keep it that way. how? I have no clue, but that'll come to me later.

ok, so I saw this on randy's blog, and since I'm constantly trying to become more and more like the evil genius randy, I'm forced by my nature, to fill it out.

THREE PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO TAKE THIS QUIZ NOW OR ELSE:
1. everyone!

other than a kickass unmarried hitman's nickname, this is the show on the discovery channel that I am watching right now, and it got me thinking.

there are fishermen that go out on these boats every year. what an incredible experience. hold on, commercials are over.

by the way, they are crab fishing.

man this show is cool... they're following like 4-6 ships and there is a quota for crabs that can be caught... for everyone, not for an individual ship... so the race to get the most crab is awesome.

whoa... there was a commercial for re/max... and it was the worst commercial I had ever seen. ugh, I hate bad commercials.


oooh, and if you're interested... the science of lance armstrong is on tomorrow at 8pm on discovery... lance is going for his 7th win.

whoa, end of commercials again... brb

man, the size of the tanks and the amount of crabs that they bring in is incredible... amsolutely incredible...

oh, and my thought was "guys do this for a living, how much fun would it be to do that for a few years? what an experience it has to be."

alright, so tonight I watched the first episode of the andy milonakis show, and it was absolutely hilarious!

watch it sunday's at 10:30 on MTV. oh man.

time for more warcraft.

alright, so yesterday I found myself watching mtv's "date my mom" for some reason... maybe it's the shallow innuendo's that they use, or maybe it's in hope that the guy will choose the ugly one.

either way, I decided to take a more in depth look into the show.

The show opens by showing all the girls, and their moms... then it goes into a segment where they introduce the guy who will be dating the moms. this section has cameramen on cocaine and a south californian a-hole talking about what he looks for in a future date. ie. looks, maybe ambition, looks, interests.

the next section introduces the 1st set of mom and daughter. the cameramen are still bouncing off the walls and can't give you a straight shot of them... the mother and daughter team then say a witty catch line such as "My daughter has got a banging body and a great personality!" "my mom is exactly the same, there is no way we're gonna lose!"... they then go to a shot of them sitting talking about their gameplan for this date... the mom says somethings about what she wants to say... the daughter tells her things she can't say, and then he knocks on their door. they jump, as if the planned event was a big surprise. the daughter reassures that the mother will do great and the mom heads for the door. a usually very awkward introduction occurs next, and the guy then says what they will be doing on the date.

next up. the date. they do something creative, or something that would usually never happen on a date... they do the said activity, then talk. he asks a starter question of her name, and sometimes a buffer question of "what are her interests?"... then follows the true meaning of this entire show... "what does she look like?" or "does she resemble any celebrities"... the guy listens to this one answer, then morphs the image of said attributes or celebrity and the mom herself in his head while the mom is explaining the rest about her daughter... key words such as "kinky", "butt", and "past boyfriends" bring him back to the conversation, usually only for a second.

he then says in what usually is horrible timing "well, let's get out of here"
the mom, surprised by this because she was enjoying talking about the daughter that she brought into this world, agrees reluctantly and they head off.

repeat for the 2nd and 3rd mom/daughter teams.

then we get to the good stuff. the intro to the decision has him standing on the same beach as everyone else who has done the show and he says something along the lines of "I brought them to this beautiful beach to reveal who I have chosen for a date"... each mother walks up and shakes his hand/ hugs him/ kisses his cheek... and they say hello... they then stand there as the cocain addicted cameramen, who just took another shot show them standing waiting for the daughters...

the daughters arrive in the same limousine that everyone else arrives in, and as always, the cameramen are right there to catch the action... they show the limousine with pitch black windows, so that you couldn't tell whether the daughters were in there or cheech and chong. it's all up in the air. we can only hope for daughters.

the guy then says what he liked about each date to each mother, and they say a witty remark about the date back. he then eliminates the first choice. the mom makes a rude remark and the daughter walks out of the limo(our hopes come true, and it is indeed the daughters)... he sees them, then a little box of him comes out and he says something about what his thoughts were at that moment(those are tossed in at random parts of the show btw)... he eliminates the second one, and again a rude remark and the daughter leaves the limousine. then he explains to the final mother that she has won, she acting excited, eventhough she had to wait for it to come out of his mouth in order to realize that everyone else has been eliminated. dumbass. the daughter then gets out of the limousine(I just realized that that might be spelled wrong, help me out here) and she comes up to him and hugs him(usually). they then cut to a shot of all three of them running on the beach, and then the mom letting them go ahead and start waving... maybe to symbolize her allowing them to date and he completing her part of the job, or whatever...

whatever the outcome, I ended up watching this show for an hour, and I probably would have watched it longer if it were on... sad day.

this just came back into my mind... after watching spanglish, laura said that I had a good memory... and I gave her a funny look because I rarely get told that(not like my smell, I get compliments on that all the time ;)) anyways, she then said that I usually have a horrible memory, which is true, but at times my memory is insanely accurate... which is weird. gets me thinking of what triggers it. and how I can turn that on permanently. ginseng? doubt it, but anything is possible at this point.

another thing with my memory is that I've started to repeat(watch again, not repeat every word of it as it's going) movies(since I usually watch about one a day)... so anyways, I usually end up watching the first half of the movie, and then going and doing something else. it comes back to me, and then I get uninterested in it... and really, that's no good.

w00t me. and my misunderstood memory. oh, and yes, I have not gone to bed yet... and I'm gonna go for a run at 9, I'm gonna start trying to get up daily at 9 and going for a run. you know, stay in shape. I have a problem with obesity, obviously.

I just played about a hour and a half of text twist... and what did I learn? what everyone already knows... I'm in no way an english major(or minor)... I have a pretty small vocabulary, but I am quite good at getting the 6 letter ones. that game is fun.

oh, and spanglish is a pretty good movie, it made me laugh, but it never really ended... it just sort of stopped, and that annoys me.

the last few days I've ridden a bike over to moscow(about 10 miles away from my house)... and it's been awesome!... other than the comlete pain I'm in because my legs aren't used to pedaling that much(I never ride bikes)... anyways, erik and I first did this task to go to taco bell(mmm, taco bell, now you all know how much it means to me)... and orange julius, which is FAN FRIGGIN TASTIC!!! and I'm trying out something new everytime(only 3 so far, tropical tango, 3 berry blast, and tart 'n berry)... I went by myself today. I stopped by hastings and bought donnie darko...

donnie darko was AWESOME! I loved that movie, it was glorious! I'm so glad that I bought it...

that is something I REALLY enjoy doing, going and buying movies I've never seen for cheap, then watching them... course, some of them turn out horribly, such as full frontal(horrible movie)... but some turn out to be great(donnie darko, royal tenebaums, I heart huckabees... etc)...

peter's perfect date: I drive(haha, when I get a car) we go to taco bell, have good conversation, we stop by at hastings or a pawn shop, buy 1-3 movies and watch them while cuddling/making out... whatever works... that is my perfect date...

carps was one of my pets fyi... a pet peeve if you will...

one of my favorite things to do it to watch movies, and I end up watching one almost every night, if not more... which is awesome, unless someone screws it up for you... I hate watching movies with people that comment on it... just watch the movie, you don't have to say "that was funny" or "oh crap, that's happened to me before"... because really, if it is funny, I'm laughing and if it has happened to you, save it and tell me the story AFTER the movie is over, shut your pie hole for the time being. another really annoying thing is when people ask questions about movies... one or two is fine if you are really lost... but non-stop, just watch and find out.

also, if you have something funny to say, not a retarded comment, then say it, because that is acceptable as long as it is at a reasonable part in the movie(not at the most intense part, or when heavy dialogue is going on)

anyways, I LOVE movies, and if you have any suggestions, let me know, I'm looking for some.

1. What do you want to do in life. And I don't mean what career choice... what do you really want to DO while you're on this planet?
Well, there is a list... drive over 200 mph. sydive. fall in love. etc. but I think this question is what impact do you want your life to have on others... and for that, I want to be a good friend... a listener. someone people trust to help them with their probelms. a friend.
2. What's the greatest thing you've done with your life?
gotten into college. everything else I've done in my life has lead to something I've quit. sports? don't play anymore. past relationships(gf type)? I'm single. jobs? don't have one. you get the idea... I'm still in college.
3. What's the worst thing you've done with your life?
Quitting things because I get bored or because I think I deserve better. easy as that. I need to stop quitting, and stick with something.
4. What has been the most traumatic event in your life?
I'd say probably the one night my brother mark ran away and my mom took me to find him(in the car)... we found him and he got into the back seat of the car and my mom started yelling at him, and he started yelling back, and I was just there hearing things a young kid shouldn't... from both parties.
5. If you were allowed to send a brief message (up to 20 letters) to the people of Earth 500 years in the future, what would it be?
"do you believe in God?"
6. One bullet, one person, no repercussions. Whom would you choose?
rick steves. I hate that guy.
7. What do you want to be remembered for?

being a good friend.

alright, so I have been pretty much out of it this week. holy crap it's friday. that is nuts.

I went back to kent two weeks ago and stayed for a week and some change. I mostly stayed with alex, but a little bit with my bro too... wait. peter you don't have a car, how did you get over there?

well, let me tell you(btw, this will be a long blog entry)

alright, My roommate Ben and his broham will were heading back to yakima for a wedding. so I hopped in and got a ride to ellensburg. from there, the plan was to

A. get a ride from lauren.
B. hang out with jeff(rey) and chill until levi can get me, and ride dirtbikes w/ jeff(rey).
C. prostitute myself until 4 in the morning and levi can pick me up. plus, this way, I make money.

what actually happened. lauren had a full car due to her and nicole(not spanky, val) being women and having buttloads of clothes to take home.

so I was planning on hanging out with Jeff... plan b. he was due in town about 8. so I get dropped off by ben and will at 5. I proceed to walk around ellensburg(a big place for having absolutely nothing) for an hour. I run into kim warfel(a hs friend of mine)... we say hi and chat a little, then I proceed to go to north for a smoothie and a piece of pizza. I overhear a group of people talking about funny mascots. "the met. let's just put a huge baseball in a guys head and call it a mascot" "what about stanford... f*ing trees"... so I walk up as I'm leaving and say smoothly(there was a semi attractive girl there, so I was as smooth as I could be after staring at her from across the dining center for 15 minutes) "personally, I have to say that the university of california santa cruz has the weirdest mascot, the banana slug" then promptly turn and walk away hearing "a banana slug? that is awesome! that is the best one, you won't be able to beat that"... I smile as I walk out the door with my back to the group of centralites. I begin to walk around again. I notice a track meet going on... I head on over. the regional hs track meet for podunk towns. so I sat there and watch kids run for about an hour, while listening to spanky(who was deep into conversation with me at this point... she always seems to talk in the conversation... except when she surprises me and decides to play hide and go seek... then she's quiet as a rock)... anyways. I head to starbucks, on the way I call jeff and tell him to meet me there... 35 minutes later(I told you this town was big, and yet, nothing is there)... I get there and order some coffee... I hang out until 8:30(half hour) then go call jeff, and apparently he was called into work, so he couldn't make it. CRAP. I sit in starbucks just chillin, glad that I have something over my head and formulating something to do about my situation. I play war with some 8-10 year olds and they whoop me just in time for their parents to tell them to get back in the car... I know war is complete chance, but I was owned by these kids... and according to their parents I shouldn't feel bad because they grew up in vegas... and now live in spokane... good move there parents. anyways, at 9:45 I walk up to the baristas working and ask if there is anywhere in ellensburg that is 24 hours that I can just sit at. and this conversation comes up.

barista 1 "I don't know of any, do you?"
barista 2 "nope, not in ellensburg"
guy waiting for coffee "what are you waiting for?"
me "my brother to come and pick me up"
guy "where are you going"
me "kent"(I say this while making hand gestures like a moron "over the mountain" gesture, you know the one)
guy "when does your brother get off work?"
me thinking to myself, man this guy needs to know everything... "1-2 a.m."
guy "and he works here in ellensburg?"
me "no, he works in kent"
guy "so once he gets off work at 2 a.m. he's coming to pick you up here, from kent?"
me "yeah, that's the plan"
guy "I'm headed to seattle, would you like a ride?"
me "yeah"(although I seriously think I said "hell yeah")
guy "alright, I can drop you off at a dennys in seattle or something"
me "cool, thank you"

turns out "guy" is Mark McAndrews, who is a resort real estate specialist for silver mountain(I have his business card). he drove a 98(I think) mustang gt with leather. it was pretty sweet. we had good conversation pretty much the entire trip, with red hot chili peppers playing in the background. so he dropped me off at the denny's on 4th in downtown seattle at 11... where I sat for 4 hours until levi finally came and got me. and that is how I got back to kent.

once home the plan was to look for and buy a car. I looked but didn't find anything suitable... so I didn't buy a car... I hung out with alex most of the time, which was AWESOME because Alex is the coolest guy to hang out with... I could hang out with him for months without getting angry at him...

oh, the first sunday I was in kent I hung out with gretchen and had dinner with her family, I don't say eat because I ate at the burns'ses beforehand(I didn't know!)... although that dinner was hilarious. the bartleson's are great. they just moved out to maple valley and were putting up a fence around their new yard. I came over on the next day for a few hours and helped build some of it... I also came back the next weekend to help with the fence some more, and we pretty much finished it. which was awesome. we worked extremely quickly.

anyways. so on sunday I was hanging out with kara and alex and chris and decided I needed to go home, so I looked up bus times. greyhound.com said there was a bus leaving seattle at 11:30 p.m. and arriving in pullman at 12:30 p.m. the next day. so I bought the ticket. 13 hours seems like a CRAZY long amount of time for the trip to pullman to take... so I notice that after I clicked it, it showed my full itinerary... 11:30 depart seattle, 5:15 arrive in spokane, 11:15 depart spokane, 12:30 arrive in pullman. DAMN IT! oh well, I bought the ticket already, no changing it now. I'll just suck it up. the layover in spokane is longer than a normal trip home takes. and I'm only an hour away from home. pooper. anyways, the trip was fine and I made it back, but that was after spending 5 hours in the bus depot, which is the nicest bus depot I've ever seen... I spent a good 6 bucks on video games while there... walked around spokane(riverfront park) and nothing was open except starbucks, which I got, then went back to the depot and sat. although while at the depot I was sitting on a bench two down from a guy sleeping with his head sideways ontop of the back of the bench. every once in a while I had the joy of seeing him wake up... which was him opening his eyes, looking around vigorously while grunting... standing up, pacing back and forth the span of all 6 benches, then sitting back down with his eyes WIDE open, mumble something, then close his eyes and fall back asleep. it was weird.

anyways, I'm back in pullman now, and doing well, I love it here. drop me a combomb everyone. seriously.

a new update is coming soon, I swear.

alright, so currently I'm at alex's house on the computer while he and his family sleep... goodtimes. I might be helping levi out tonight for something, so I'm styaing up, plus there are a lot more "maybe this'll happen"'s going on right now, so I'm just chillin...waiting to find out.

The computer at the shafer's house has one of those split keyboards the is "ergonomical" or whatever... so if I misspell something or forget a letter, it's because of the keyboard... but if my sentence structure doesn't make sense. That would be my fault.

anyways... did you ever hear about those kids up in alaska that found vats of mercury in a shed and decided to put their hands and arms into it because it looked cool on thier skin? well it's true. I believe all four of them died. maybe not though, I think my mom told me that story about 4-6 years ago... and my mind could have made up that they died... but really, kids THAT dumb should be dead, so whatever... they're dead to me.

anyways, I bring up mercury because I'm listening to element eighty right now... and you can piece it together from there.

anyways, I have to figure out what is going on for the summer still(it's only been a month right?)

time to go call dane. later ya'll.
