I haven't really had too much to say these past few days, really; I think it's like Seph puts it...you could kind of go "Today I got up, did some things, ate a bowl of cereal, went to work, came home, hung out, masturbated and went to bed." but not many people would be interested in that. Especially the masturbation part. But there you go; that's my daily routine.
No matter what happens this weekend it promises to be a busy one. Odis' game tonight; Artemis was actually pleased upon our return, and a huge party was thrown in our honor...that was pretty cool. I struck out with a bear, though...next time I think I'll dip myself in honey and sprawl out on my back. >:)
I'm filling in for Matt at work on Sunday, which I'm only too happy to do. Sunday, whether it's busy or not, is one of those immensely relaxing work experiences. I'm looking forward to heading in as early as I can so I can get some work done; maybe finish up Environmental Studies and Ecology so I can finally put the oversized Nature books somewhere other than messy stacks on the floor.

I'm looking forward to heading in as early as I can so I can get some work done; maybe finish up Environmental Studies and Ecology so I can finally put the oversized Nature books somewhere other than messy stacks on the floor. <:) Saturday, there are a few movie options and maybe I can make a double feature out of it. Sherri wants to go see Hidalgo, but <s>Odis</s> Ryngs and I would love to go see The Passion of the Christ. For a bunch of baby-murdering pagans, he and I share a certain fondness for religious history. The House of Sand and Fog is no longer around in Fayetteville, so I'm going to have to wait for it to come to video...I was really looking forward to seeing it in theatres, too. :/
All this talk about movies reminds me that I have very little money. ;) I get paid today, and this is the first paycheck in about three weeks that isn't solely dedicated to bills or rent or something. I'd like to use it to play around but there's (hopefully) a weekend trip planned for next Friday *and* PMP the Tuesday after that; I'm planning on the tax return stuff not to get settled before I leave so I'm going to have to save most of every paycheck for that. I'm still operating under the $25/week rule, but it's a bit more comforting to know that it's voluntary right now.
On Lazarus' advice I'm going to stop talking about writing projects and just...do them. Now I know why writers are so famously guarded about what they're working on until they're ready to share it. But I am writing.
All in all, I think I'm going to have to deposit my paycheck to avoid spending more than I should. In an effort to make sure they don't suck on me until I'm a powdered husk at the plasma center, I've been drinking at least 7 glasses of water a day. Do you know how much that is? I'm drinking constantly, and there's little room for anything else. My body seems to have reacted favorably to it, even if I am voiding my bladder a lot more often these days. I think because it's always had so little to hold it's shrunken quite a bit...or maybe I have that overactive bladder syndrome they keep talking about. That's it, more pills to add to the commercial cocktail they shove down our throats! Death to the bourgeois scum! Four legs good, two legs baaaaaad!
I hope I am not alone in the fact that "Animal Farm" made me cry, especially when they sent Boxer off. I can never keep it together during that part. :P
I've been thinking about a lot of things recently, and I feel...heavy. Fritzie mentioned the idea of Peak Oil in a couple of posts, and combined with the Pentagon's worry about rising climactic changes it's looking more and more like the world is fubared. In my lifetime, there will be major changes that could possibly shape things into a way that none of us recognize. What worries me most, I think, is the dismissive tone with which information like this is regarded. One fellow said that it's 'probably alarmist,' and gave me the impression that as such it's not worth considering. Maybe it's alarmist, but I think at this point we need to be alarmed. Still, if that's the prevalent attitude, what can you do?
In other news, I won't even address the issue of Bush exploiting the 9/11 tragedy in a bid to be re-elected, but I will say this: it's tactless, audacious behavior like this that has marked Bush's presidency since he's taken office. No one should be surprised that he'd do something like this, but we *should* be angry.
