Well now I feel like a dork . For all my mentally nick-naming her little Miss. PMS, I didn't even think that she might actually be in the middle of that right now. A quick trip to the bathroom and a glance in the trash-can doubly marked me a dork .


Mystery solved. No kidding, Shirlock .

Well, that was confusing (no offense ). I still don't understand. One still knows what the word is if one of the letters is left, and even if one of the letters isn't, then it's still a curse word no matter how you mask it! Confusing!

Well then, the only solution is for no one to curse.

You know what's got me angry lately? The actor Ed Norton. Why is he waiting so long to change his name? Does he think it's a flashy stage name or something: Edward Norton. It sounds like a congested turtle. And it's been taken for years by Art Carney's character on the Honeymooners, and he made it, epitimized it, and it should be forever associated with him. It's impossible for me to follow a conversation about movies now because everyone I know always somehow brings it around to their mancrush, Ed Norton the actor, who looks like a dork by the way and therefore shouldn't even be in Hollywood movies in the first place. I want to write him a letter or something telling him.

What were they looking for? How'd you know they were rummaging around in your laundry? Maybe they were gonna steal it, then decided not to since your socks weren't up to snuff...

Vent: Why? Why? Why can't this stupid planet be withing the galactic halo? We've got such an unfairly plain view of our Milky Way Galaxy, a stupid band of light. Think of the view from the galactic halo! From one of the Magellanic clouds! From a supercluster, and it would never completely be night, because on one side, we'd have hundreds of nearby stars, and on the other, the brightness of the Milky Way. Pity I'll never see our galaxy to it's full extent, at most the nearest stars.

Hey, you don't know that for sure, trolls' bane; for all we know, after we die our spirits might get to check out ALL the different angles and areas of our galaxy! I honestly really used to believe this, and like I said, for all we know, we WILL get to explore & witness all the up-close-and-personal beauty of the galaxy. Cheer up! It just may happen for all of us someday...

Your neighbours are a bit strange and rude. I mean the others in the building as well.

Stinker. By a narrow margin, he lost the vote against the GOP in the Senate. Now, rather than losing well, rather than saying "we all have different views," or some such, rather than explaining why (in his view) the costs of Washington's policy outweigh the benefits, he chooses to spend his camera time tarring Washington, Christians and conservatives all in one broad brush stroke that spells the word "Idiots". I agree with RÃ*an; this kind of attitude on the part of some liberals and Democrats is annoying. To some of them, the word, "religious," is the equivalent of "nutcase," though only when it's referring to conservative religious folks. I've never seen religious liberals tarred and feathered in that way, though they act according to their consciences just as much as conservatives do.

Alas. I was encouraging people to support Harry Reid in speech I recently gave about the Iraq war, at college, because he is one of the most important Democrats who is in favor of sticking the war out. I was favorably impressed by him. I have now been sadly disillusioned .

Actually, because there's a sickness wandering around my family at present, bothering us all, the laundry progress has slowed down, and I'm forced to almost daily steal socks from my younger brother.
