Listening to... freakin' LFO
Feeling... like I could be more productive

Man I love old songs... They killed all of the fun of LFO's song "Summer Girls" when it was popular but now that it's been a few years, it's fun to dig it out of my mp3 collection.

Disclaimer: I have no faith in tarot card readings.

Anecdote: Back in the day, a coworker at Arby's did a Tarot card reading for me. She told me I would die alone (this came up in two or three readings she did for me). I told my manager about it, and she put the best spin on it... "Well, at least if you're in a bank robbery or otherwise held hostage, you can feel comfortable. Cause you're not going to die with all of those people around." Whew!

Real World thoughts

Leah is so bipolar in her feelings... she loves or hates everyone... and goes from one extreme to the other over nothing
Mallory put an apple core in a candy dish... For once I agree with Leah- Yuck.
Pascual looks like a Star Trek character. hmmm....
What?!? Pascual (Pas-KWAA as Leah says it) is only a sophomore in HS??? And Mallory going to hook up with him?!
Why is she so freakin' in love with her brother???
Poor Ace, so in looooove with that idiotic alcoholic Mallory.
AHhhhhhh, the ads were right! Mallory got some Simon loving!!!!!
I can't believe Simon would snog the least cool member of the house. And to think he was my favorite...
Did Pascual stay in town for less than 24 hours? I would never fly to Europe for less than a two week stay.
I have taken that cab ride to CDG!! cost us $60 if I remember....
It's good to see everyone using the French they've learned. Right....
Eww, fake hugging

While proudly showing off his new apartment to friends, a college student led the way into the den.

"What is the big brass gong and hammer for?" one of his friends asked.

"That is the talking clock", the man replied.

"How's it work?" the friend asked.

"Watch", the man said then proceeded to give the gong an ear shattering pound with the hammer.

Suddenly someone screamed from the other side of the wall "KNOCK IT OFF, YOU IDIOT! It's two AM in the morning!

A college physics professor was explaining a particularly complicated concept to his class when a pre-med student interrupted him.

"Why do we have to learn this stuff?" one young man blurted out.

"To save lives," the professor responded before continuing the lecture.

A few minutes later the student spoke up again. "So how does physics save lives?"

The professor stared at the student for a long time without saying a word. Finally the professor continued.

"Physics saves lives," he said, "because it keeps certain people out of medical school."

"That's not just a space ship. That's a transformer!"

--Today I watched Space Balls for the first time... yeah, I know... long time coming.

"Now you see evil will always triumph, because good is dumb."

Listening to... Excuse me, Mister by No Doubt
Feeling... gooooood

Two realizations today... One was this morning, when I realized that I wanted some golf clubs... today. So, I just got some!!! (Yes, there was forethought on this fairly big purchase, but the impulse to go for it came today).
The second realization is that if I were to make a list of things that make life worth living, cheese would be on my list. I really do love it. Maybe I'll make that list some day, but for now just know that cheese would be there.

Oh, and note to self: Cannot buy any clothes until September 18 (that was my justification for my golf splurge).
