If you, like myself, have passed over many a magazine rack filled with stalker-porn magazines like ‘People’ while in waiting rooms or long grocery store lines you may have noticed this.
…no really, who the hell didn’t think he was? I’m more surprised that he’s the only one. I wouldn’t be surprised if all of N’sync were gay and fond of having mass orgies with each other. Jeaz!

So. Bad news/good news; my tablet has passed the fine line of almost dead to useless. The screen is a constant spaz now rather than an infrequent one. I had my dad take it to the office for the resident code monkey/ tinkerman to see if he could resurrect the poor thing. No such luck, however he said he had a possible replacement if I wanted it. Not a tablet unfortunately, but a computer that doesn’t act like it’s having a seizure while I’m trying to learn precal will be refreshing. Also, it’s likely to be a reject of some sort (as the tablet was) and I don’t think I can get any better than a tablet for a reject computer so it’s likely to be a downgrade. :(
….meh
Thank god for my desktop, or I’d be really behind now.

Dude, itfs been forever since I wrote anything here. Ifll probably start posting on my Myspace now that everyone else has one. (AAAAARGGGHHHHNOOOOOO!!!!) my hate for myspace still stands in all its burning glory. DIE UGLY DIE!! Anywho, Ifve been working on my precalc course which is a bitch yet strangely satisfying. It will be even more satisfying when I finally finish and am able to take calculus next year. (I grant my friends, Sara in particular, to call me the crazy for this)
My escapades in Georgia for two weeks were entertaining. The CDC camp proved to be as interesting as I had hoped. We got to go to all the supercool behind the scenes places like the crisis overflow facilities, and the press conference room where CDC people make announcements about things like SARS, smallpox, anthrax and suchwhat. I also got to experience a protest composed of the stupidest people known to mankind. They were protesting the chickenpox shot which, they believed, increased the severity of cerebral palsy in children. A myth that had been overturned by a previous study, but who trusts science anyway? I also managed to make $150 by babysitting my handicapped cousin (he has a rather extreme form of cerebral palsy) I got to know my other cousin a bit better. Hefs crazy like woah, especially when around my brother. I love them so.
Yesterday I went out with Cyn and Sara, and another girl whofs name I canft remember (of course) who was a friend of Cynfs. I bought some earrings with my awesome bargaining ski11z got a 40% discount. Of course the promptly broke when I got home. Stubborn biatch that I am, I went back and had them replaced by the cute little Chinese lady who apologized profusely in her broken English. (Oah! Ess! Ahny taime!)
I also have been eating blueberries like candy. Ifll probably be sick of them by the time theyfre out of seasonc hopefully.

NPR is having an all out gender free-for-all. We have the transgenderd, genders posing as other genders, and people writing books about genders. This topic of transgenderthingawhat really bugs me. I am sorry to say that I would not be able to stay with a husband that went all femmy on me. Yes it’s nice to have a gender-difference aware husband but not a husband with fist hand experience. The reason I marry my hypothetical husband is because a) he’s a great person that I want to spend the rest of my emotional and financial life with and b) he’s hot and MALE. I can love friends just as much as a husband. The best kind of husband is someone you love in both a romantic and platonic way. This reduces the chances of divorce later on when you discover that ‘hey! I hate this person; I just married them because they used to be sexy as hell. Time to find a new spouse!’ so please any guys out there who feel an urgent need to put on your girlfriend’s clothes and look pretty, get you gender change now before you destroy someone else’s chance at a happy marriage. (If you disagree with me on any point in this rant feel free to bash my brains out, I need an alternate point of view)
....I should probably write a pamphlet about all my weird quirks to give to prospective boyfriends.
While we’re on the subject of news and the media; what do you get when you take one Stephen Colbert (from the Daily Show/ now Colbert Repore’) and put him in a room with our fine pres’ G-dubbaya-Bush? A bloodbath of course!

I just finished watching 3 kingdoms. BEST ANIME EVER. It’s based off a Chinese novel. Kinda’ like Howl’s MovingCastle except Chinese. And um… different. Firstly there is no mad orgy like pairing of the characters. He whole thing is purely platonic which is both refreshing and frustrating. This fact in itself is probably why the anime had an early death. It has an ending… kinda, but It doesn’t cover all the books. Something I have yet to find out about via internet happened and they lost funds. Despite awesomeness of art and OMFG character development! And not the crappy half-assed thing like you usually see! So much love. Youko = awesome. Totally no Mary Sues anywhere. *spaz* I also somehow managed to get two copies from the sleazy eBay seller hat I got the DVDs from for a disgustingly good price. I = cheap bastard or bitch if you want to be technical about it. The next anime I’m setting my sights on is Otogizoushi AKA Otogi Zoushi, also based off some Chinese novel. I swear from now on to watch (primarily) novel- based anime because everything else sucks. DIE INUYASHA DIEDIEDIE! Put the damn thing out of its misery already!
I have been experiencing home-alone syndrome. Symptoms include too much eating of tasty honeydew melon, overshoping at the local grocery store, to much TV watching, leaving doors open while going to the bathroom and a substantial decrease in the number of dishes I have to clean. Yays! I could so totally get used to this.
I also have been spending some quality with the cute, but retarded dog downstairs. I have secretly christened her ‘Grublet’ because of her questionably dog-like appearance. As I have no camera I will steal a picture and some bandwidth from someone else’s site.
Note the elongated grub-like apearance. This is even more evedent when she wiggles on the floor asking for tummyrubs.
