New Money??

So I bought a pack of cigarettes today at the gas station, and I had to break a $20. When the lady gave me my change she handed me a weird coin. She said that is was worth a dollar and it was real. It turned out to be a presidential dollar. I had only seen these in frames, I didn't realize they were in circulation too. I think I am going to keep it until a rainy day. Peace.

Yea So..

Yea so I am fully aware that I am posting this at 5:30 in the moring. So what, what are you gonna do about it. Yea I have been experiencing a very awkward sleep schedule for like the past 2 weeks. Some nights I got to bed early, some nights I sleep way too much, and some nights I don't go to bed at all. I don't know why. My mama always told me my problem with going to bed is that I have to be on the verge of passing out before I will lay down and go to bed. I see what she is saying because if I'm not asleep in 20 minutes then I instinctively get back up and do stuff.

Today me and Josh rearranged our living room. Yea it sounds like something a chick would do, but so what. So what if I want to do things like that....don't judge me. Yea and I occasionally listen to songs that aren't very masculine but so what. Who are you to judge.

I worked at Hat Shack this weekend. The job can get pretty boring but there are moments that make you stop and wonder. Take this for example, it's around 8:15 on a Friday night. I'm trying to help this lady find a hat for her sons when all of the sudden I notice this couple out in front of our store. They were probably in their late 30s I'd say. These two "animals" were going at each other like it was no body's business. For like 30 seconds I am subjected to softcore mall porn while I am trying to do my job. Thankfully they left to scar some other peoples minds for a while. For those three of you who know what I'm talking about, they were 10 times worse than the Crawfish Boil couple.

So what's with this weather now a days. It's warm during the day but cold as a mo fo at night. Transitions between hot and cold weather trip me out the most. I always have to open the back door before I get dressed to leave. Either be hot or cold. Stupid global warming(disclaimer: I do not believe in global warming)

Anyways everyone, I'm not off to bed I got some laundry to do and I am gonna go through my mp3 player after that. I probably wont go to bed tonight. It will probably be sometime after my 9:00 class. Until next time-you stay lovely.

Politics for Friday

So here's another update in my world of politics. I did a little research on William Ayers and his connection to Obama. After reading a lot of stuff on the topic, some democratic, some republican, and some third party research sources; I don't see what the big deal is. Yea Ayers did some bad stuff in the 60s and 70s, but how does that link Obama to terrorism. Yea at one time he lived in the same neighborhood and did associate with him and even Ayers helped him insignificantly with running for offices, but how does that link him to terrorism and question his judgement. Here's a good analogy. say I live next door to an older guy who in the 60s murdered somebody. I talk to him and learn things from him. does that make me a sympathizer with what he did. I think not. The Republicans are running out of time so they figure to bring his character into question and scrutinize everything he has done wrong or questionable in his life. Everyone forgets that Ayers is still a distinguished professor at Illinois and has done a lot with education and its reform. I think I want a president who listens to somebody on education reform. Sarah Palin has been speaking a lot on this topic of Obama and Ayers when she did something very recently that was against the law. Yea she broke the law when she fired the public safety commissioner. I will defend her and say there are some unknowns in the case that could make it OK however Obama never broke the law. Anyways, I will finish on this note, make sure you are clean before you start throwing mud at other people. Peace.

Thursday

So today is Thursday. I was sitting in my Biology class today when I realized that science is cool. Living things are too cool and learning how these things are made up and how they functions blows my mind sometimes. I am a nerd yea I know but this is some cool stuff. That's about all I got for this Thursday. Oh yea I work next Friday and Saturday at Hat Shack. It's a cool place so everyone expect hats for Christmas. Peace up, A town down.

Halloween

So Halloween is coming up in a couple of weeks. I have been contemplating what to be for Halloween and I think I have come up with a great idea. First of all I want to start by saying unless you are a kid, have a kid, or are in college Halloween isn't a big deal. But for kids its the candy, for adults is about the kids, and for college students its about the drinking and dressing up. For girls this is the one year you can dress like a street walker and it be OK. For guys there is no limit to what you can be. I am going to be a tennis pro for Halloween. I am gonna wear some short whites shorts, white polo, white sweater vest, white sweat bands, tall tube socks, and white shoes. Too cool I know. I love Halloween because it gives me an excuse to buy bite size candy. Anyways early Happy Halloween to everyone.

Politics

So I was flippin through the channels and stopped on Fox News to see how the economic crisis was coming along when a story about a teacher who taped and posted a video of his students doing a Obama chant. The teacher got suspended and could face termination. The debate that took place enraged me. I don't have a problem with it knowing the information I know now. People are jumping to conclusions about the matter. We don't know enough about the situation to accurately make a decision. We don't know if the boys wanted to do it, who's idea it was, or if the teacher was just there to tape it. I came to the conclusion after watching the discussion that I don't like Fox News and more specifically Republicans. I disagree with a lot of there ideologies and think they are out of touch sometimes.
1. I support the troops in Iraq, but I feel that we don't need to be there.
2. I disagree with the trickle down policy of economic tax breaks because how often does the money actually get down to people like me. The rich get richer and regular people get little help.
3. I believe in pro choice. I don't think a president should load the Supreme Court with conservatives so that Roe v. Wade will be over turned.
4. I don't have a problem with gay people getting "married". Yea I know "marriage" is between a man and a woman, but homosexuals should have the same right as heterosexuals when it comes to making it official.
5. I just don't see how electing someone who has agreed and voted along with our current president because look where we are now. I just don't see how four more years of Republican presidency is going to benefit our country.

By the way, I'm voting for Obama.

Sorry

Hey everyone. Sorry it has been so long since my last post. I don't really have an excuse. I could use the "I have been busy" excuse, but that's not the reason. I just lost interest for a little while. Now I am back and you can expect frequent posts for a while. By the way, check out the new site I added. It's called urban dictionary. It's a cool website to find out the meaning of slang words that perplex you. Anyways, I gonna stop here, but I'll be back later. Peace
