Thank goodness it's Friday huh? Well, being all cloudy, overcast, a bit wet, and still having a high pollen count, I can't really say that I'm enjoying this Friday all too much. It rained this afternoon. It rained a fair bit, and I never got to go out to throw the disc around. Unfortunate. Still didn't help my allergies a bit, I sneezed more than I wanted to today. First frost seems so far away..
It's cleared up now. Hopefully the ground dries up enough so I can blade back.
I guess I'm going to sell my old 2 gig hard drive. I don't seem to need it and the buyer is quite insistent. Ah well, I'll have to go around looking for a CD-RW drive soon anyway, I'm starting to get a little paranoid about losing my data again.
I was informed by HKL that a CPR message I forwarded to everyone may be wrong. Hmm.. that's a little distressing. I probably should have checked with a doctor first before sending it off, but I was feeling a little lazy (as I always do). I should go and confirm.. but I'm feeling too lazy to bother. Eh, whatever.
The Math C&D was a little sparse today, being the least busiest time of the year. Unfortunately, this also meant that they really didn't stock much food. I did manage to run off with a couple of Jamaican patties. The parties tasted somewhat odd.. the shell was much more dense than usual, and the meat tasted funny. It felt like I was eating a pepperoni pizza. After the meal, I could still taste that awful meaty flavour in my mouth. Definitely not a good lunch.
weirDo found a site that Cosmo sent him. Found out that I was supposed to die on May the 2nd, 2050. Haven't tried the purity test yet, but will soon. (Seems like I'm 72% pure..)
Added a few more phrases to the Laws and Quotes.. which I'll be changing to the Sayings section, since it's a bit more applicable, and since I'm a lazy butt and can't be bothered to type two letters for the file completion to recognize the directory name.
I also moved some files around and added this and that in preparation for expanding some areas of the site. This should all go on invisibly, but if there are any problems, you should e-mail me ASAP! (And tell me what's wrong of course)
After checking out Laz's (more often updated) homepage, I saw his link to a Washington Post article about kids having.. uh.. fun. He also links up Mike Jaspar's commentary where he got the original link from.
I would like to comment first about Mike's comments about AOL. I found it to be quite funny actually, although the first thing that came to my mind when he got the initials CIF was the Columbia Ice Field. In the context of the middle school article, I found his Clinton stab quite humourous, although I'm still wondering what the hell those kids were thinking.. you might not get pregnant, but you can still get STDs. I said this before, and I'll say it again:
"Silly kids, tricks are for adults."
I mean, they're barely teens! Of course, when I was thirteen.. Oh man, Howard Stern would just have a field day if he heard about this. I can see him commenting now..
I wonder though, when I was in middle school, what I would've done if I was exposed to this sort of stuff. The people I hung around with weren't into this.. of course, I really didn't hang with anyone interesting at that time. I did know a fair number of people and most of them didn't seem to.. uh.. swing that way. I still think that I would be way too shy to get involved in something like this. Nor would I do something crazy to "belong" (although it was the females who were the ones who wanted to "belong" - the guys were pretty damned lucky). I was always a loner type, and bounced around a bit, so I never really needed to feel accepted. A true introvert. It is nice though, to be a part of something every now and then.. but not too long. It gets a little suffocating.
No.. I was definitely too shy then.
Now? The opportunity has not presented itself yet, so I can't give you a definitive answer. Nor do I expect to anytime soon. Mind you, I'm only considering girls around my age, which I guess wouldn't be as outlandish as those kids getting together, but if one of these juniors came up to me, that would have to be a no. I don't think it's good for them. I mean, even if I was going out with this kid (which leads to a completely different thread altogether) I would still say no.. I'd like to be platonic long as possible (this is not even considering the statutes). But to be honest, I really don't know what I would do.
Ya know, I think I opened a can of worms there..
Eh, I think I'll let them wriggle around for a bit before I feed them to the fish. If I'm lucky, I won't even have to answer those questions. I know whatever choice I make will have bad consequences anyway.
Speaking of choices.. well.. I'll leave that for another day. That's enough for now, I think I've worried you people enough. Time to clean out those leftovers..
