So....
Hi.
....
*cough*
Look I really don't know what to say. It's not just that there's nothing nice to say. If I had good news I'd let you know. But if I had random, neutral news I'd give you that too. It feels like my life has veered into the horse latitudes. Nothing good but nothing I can really add to my list of complaints.
Personally I've managed to go by a month without any new tragedies. Personally. There's plenty going around for everyone else. So it makes it hard to have fun with friends and family. Also I don't have anything to look forward to in the near to moderately distanced future. It's hard to be motivated if you don't have anything to work towards. Speaking of work I'm not feeling very satisfied with my job. But I think that has to do more with the coworkers than the actual job, which I still love. This is sad because Gibson used to be a family.
I'm out of good books to read. I just get depressed when I think about writing the story that now has nobody to read it. I have the drafting table but even forcing myself to paint something didn't have great results. It seems my only enjoyment comes out of driving too fast, shooting stuff and rolling up the world on the Xbox 360. That is if Gibby isn't biting my face because I'm ignoring him.
Wait.
Have I told you about Gibby?
It seems I've mentioned him/her/it. But here's the update.
When he got on solid foods it was amazing. We were able to keep him penned up in the dining room with baby gates previously used for Lily, our boxer. When he managed to climb over them a week ago (which is amazing considering he was immobile a month ago) it was nice to know he could walk around and entertain himself (without Lily thinking it's a chewtoy). Yesterday he managed to beat the baby gate's new placement, granting him free range of the house. Now when he wakes me up at 5:30 in the morning (he still sleeps in a kennel) I just let him out, give him some cat food and then go back to bed.
So far so good, except that he's a freaking psycho. Hands are his favorite chew toy. He'll sit patiently wanting you to pick him up, and when you do he bites until you put him down again. And he has this thing where he just stares at you. I think he's trying to explode our heads. But overall he (or she, not sure yet) is a decent kitty. Especially when it's sleeping.
So....
I have a kitty.
Otherwise life sucks.
Are you worried about a swine flu pandemic?
No.
If you could pick between the superpowers of flight or invisibility, which would you choose?
Submitted by aynge.
They're both so useful for so many things. However the most useful things that I can think of for invisibility are stealing, spying on people and other not entirely ethical things. But on the other hand flying without invisibility could be annoying. Think about it, when you're flying you're completely exposed. Everyone would be pestering you to fly everywhere for them. Unless you had a secret identity, of course. But then everyone is going to assume you're a costumed hero. How do you explain that you can't save the baby from the burning building because you're on your way to a movie?
What is worse? Ignorance or apathy?

I see...well not very well with this tiny font.
ANYWAY. I see an abundance of both in the people around me sometimes. I don't think one is worse than the other. In fact it's hard to have one without the other.
Personally I like to switch between the two. Either by not understanding something enough or not caring about the outcome, it lets me get away with doing nothing.
Tomorrow's Tax Day. Have you done your taxes yet?
Please. Do I look like I'm an idiot and/or in a sitcom?
Where, when, and with whom was your very first kiss?
Hey now, that's a personal question and I don't have to tell the whole world if I don't want to!
So why bring it up at all? Because I was just talking about this with Nik and Marcie the other day and the coincidence amuses me.
Also completely irrelevant to the topic: The Terminal is a great movie. Really great.
Haven't been doing much lately.
Trying to start cooking.
Seriously neglecting my homework.
Alternating between cheerful and despondent. Currently desondent.
Waiting for some stuff to happen.
Need some new clothes.
In 2002, the Bush Administration declared that the detainees of the War on Terror were not eligible for rights under the Geneva Conventions. Do you agree with the Bush Administration's decision? How might you have handled it differently?

I think we should run all decisions by Jack Bauer. He would know who is guilty just by looking at them. Then he'd alternate between yelling really loud and quiet pleading, maybe a few gunshots to a few kneecaps. He'd be able o catch every terrorist in the world within the week (think seven seasons of 24). When will people learn that he is never wrong?
Remember this?
Apparently I didn't because I haven't accomplished a single thing on the list.
BUT I have until the end of the month. A couple are impossible, a few would be way too much work, and at least one is going to be ignored for the time being.
I guess that leaves cooking three times a week and doing this outside of the house. Oh well.
What food would you miss most if you were sent to prison for the rest of your life?

Babies.
Now ask me why I'm going to prison.
