"I like hats... no wait, that wasn't it." I so need this hat. Seriously. With a hat like that, and a pinstripe suit... I would be a fox. (or a pimp, if I got some platform shoes and a cane and stuck a feather in the hat). Ha.
Sinfest omg... Sinfest hit the nail on the head. Again. (Although "hangover" might not be the most appropriate title, as my grogginess is caused by muscle relaxants (we assume) these days).
Thunderstorming here... big time thunderstorm, too. The thunder is shaking the building... and I can't see any of it, because I'm inside... in class. Sinfest on rain...
In other news, yay for open source software that does exactly what you need it to do, and has an awesome graphical interface (specifically Cluster 3.0, which is currently doing my machine learning homework for me).
And in unrelated news, it is now legal to drink and or posses hard alcohol on campus... but beer is still illegal on most of campus. Go figure. The dean said they changed the policy to "reflect the action on campus." Heh. If a bunch of people go around killing students at random, will they make that legal, too? I mean, since we're changing the standards to fit the lowest common denominator. We might as well.
Hell, why do we have rules anyway? People are just going to break them. If enough people break them, we'll have to change the rule, and that's just way to much trouble. We should abolish rules. And rulers. And protractors, dadgum it. I hate protractors.
Yeah... today's not gong to be a good day. I woke up feeling like crap (kinda like all of yesterday), and gave up the chance at a close parking space so as to be able to sleep for 15 more minutes... didn't really sleep for about 14 of those minutes, and fell back asleep literally one minnute before my alarm went off again (sleeping in... not a good idea). And, when I got to Butler hall.... no Mello Yello. Only Coke. *sigh*
However... unlike Monique, I will not blame God for my whiney problems. Today, anyway.
I hate calling people I don't know. *sigh* but that's life.
So it's Wednesday... and I'm at work. And I'm tired. And I hafta go to church tonight. Because Daddy's sick and can't take the little kids. Maybe I can find a quiet corner of one of the room to curl up and take a nap.... or not... naps might be dangerous. Maybe I can read. Reading is restful.
I feel guilty... because it's raining, and I'm enjoying the rain. And parts of Huntsville are still under water... so the last thing we need is more rain... but I like rain... When it rains, everything is ok. (unless your house is under 2 feet of water, I guess)... *sigh* I'm such an awful person... rejoicing in somehting that causes other people so much trouble...
Oh hey, random space excitement for the week: Be sure the catch the lunar ecplise Thursday night... it should be really visible anytime between 22:14 and 23:07, CDT. At least it should be, if it clears up around here.
Interesting note related to Daddy... My dad may soon become a pothead... or... well... something like it. Several people have suggested to him that medical marijuana might help him when he doing chemo. It's supposed to help a lot with the nausea and the pain... so he's going to ask Dr. Dang about it. What was recommended was the pills, mostly... although someone mentioned marijuana tea. Just an interesting note.
Too funny to not post here... think it'll work for me?
BTW, I blog spasticly at work... I keep a notepad window open, and type whatever comes to mind inbetween like, actually working and stuff. And then i post it all whenever I get a chance... so my post may be a little random. Just a little.
Hey hey hey.... send your name to a comet! How cool is that? Now my name will be on Mars, and on a comet! (I sent my name to Mars last summer). You get a spiffed out certificate, too...
Ah... finally. A "real" assignment. I get to design PawPoint slides for a big NASAexplores presentation. *sigh* The life of an intern is so demanding. *grin*
Just a note.... Sephen is not all about sex. Someone I recommended it too said it was, but i have compiled the statistics.... out of the 34 Sephen strips published to date, only 6 of them are about sex (implied or otherwise)... that's less than 1/5 of the comic... which is less than the sex content of say, Sinfest, or even *gasp* Mega Tokyo (if you don't count the dead piro days and stick man strips). Imagine that.
At least Sephen doesn't lust after 15 year old anime girls... *grin* She just uses her man for sex. Not unlike Tank Girl, hence another reason I compare Sephen to a combination of Tank Girl and Gundam Wing... You want something that's all about sex, watch Tank Girl. Oh yeah.
It's like the first time you got laid... and you looked up and said, "Daddy, are you sure this is right?"
~Tank Girl, talking to Jet (her sidekick)
I found a comic strip that I really relate to.... in an odd and twisted kind of way. Sinfest. It's funny.... very sacreligious... but funny. So here's a rundown of characters:
Monique, aka It-Girl.... Me, of course. She's a little wild, but she is constantly getting fed up with pig headed guys... Especially one.
Slick, aka The Pimp: The original male pig. He's alwas putting down women and watching porn, and he thinks he's the hottest guy to ever come down the line. I don't think I'll name any names here (though a few come to mind).
Seymor, aka freaky angel boy: typical of all the hypocrites that seem to seek me out... so typical it's scary.
God: an interesting veiw of God if he were human.... which makes me glad he's not :-)
I could go on... but I'll let you read it. It's funny. But be prepared.... some of the religious jokes might ruffle a few feathers. But, on the other hand, if you can't laugh about your religion, what can you laugh about?
This is my brain..... in part, at least.
