I think I helped people here today vent off some angst with a "post your rant" thread. What's the $20.00 word for that? Catharthis.

I got accepted to one of the grad schools I applied to today! (Western Washington.) So I know that I'll atleast be going somewhere.

I just wish everyone else would hurry up and let me know.

I got my new canopy.

I got my new camcorder.

The Marines are coming in today to do helicopter jumps.

On a local news show, they showed me landing again.
My reality and yours are quite different.

My weekly good news? I got my ass saved at the 11th hour by the temp agency I work through. Current job at the paper company was due to be cut from 5 to 2 days per week by Monday, and the temp agency plugged for me, and found me something with better pay to take up the other 3 days per week. I might actually be able to afford my rig now.... I feel like dancing. I won't because I suck at it, but I still feel like it.

I applied to five speech programs and one audiology program.

I'm kinda leaning towards audiology, but that program is the most difficult to get into.. so we'll see what happens.

Were you studying for the BARR this week? If so, hope you do well...
I don't want to make all the decisions because if I screw up, then I can't blame it on you...

I just put on and buttoned up a pair of khakis that haven't fit since last summer. :)

I can now fully recite the abc's while drunk...



unfortunately, you still have to learn how to do it backwards.

that's how the cops make you do it. I don't understand why. I can't (nor can most people that I know) do it while I'm sober, much less when I'm hammered.
Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie.

I think the doctor said I was going to live, but with the pain killers I have been taking, I'm not sure. I'm still breathing for the moment, so that's good news. :|

You see that's the trick.... they're all tricks...

No one can do it backwards, especially sober. So the correct answer to that question when the cops ask is, "no one can do it", or "I never learned them backwards you canadian backwards mutherfucker....."
