Seriousness and a Redirect

The Thai Chick and I had a talk the other night. We cleared up some important things, and I told her about this site. I still don't know the answer to the "serious" question yet, but I'm not joking about it anymore, either.

Oh, and just as an FYI, I probably won't be posting here this month. I'm in Luling, LA, right now doing relief work. I'm the admin on a blog for that. Check it out.

Until later...

For Serious

I'm still dating The Thai Chick. Now, it's been somewhere around five months that we've been going out, and things are happening that have never happened to me before. For instance, almost everyone that I tell about the relationship immediately asks me, "Is it serious?"

How am I supposed to respond to that? "Oh, yeah, we started picking out baby names."? Or perhaps, "Hell, nah. We just get together on weekends and make out." I mean, it's not either of those things. Yeah, we like each other. And yeah, it's long distance. But we're not exchanging vows or anything.

So I've decided to have some fun with it. The next time someone asks me if it's serious, I'm going to pick an extreme. Whatever I feel like at the time. "Yes. We're eloping next weekend," or "Nah, we just go to orgies together."

I 'm not sure why, but making people uncomfortable is like a hobby for me.

SOS

I'm not loving this new home so much. Does anyone know how to fix up my MT Blacklist? I know that Maine gave it a shot a while back, but he couldn't figure it out. Can anyone lend a hand? Anyone? Anyone?

...Bueller?

Happiness and a Paycheck

I can't imagine doing something I hate for a living. I mean, doing a job that I don't particularly enjoy for a summer or winter break isn't that bad. I know it's going to end. I know that if I just make it through a bit longer, I'll have a paycheck, and I'll be done with it. But if I knew that every day, I had to walk into an office where I hated the people, was bored with the work, and wanted to kill my boss, there would come a point where I would calmly get up from my desk, kick my computer screen, walk out of the building and catch the next flight to Barcelona.

How do people get through their lives doing something they hate every day? Even more importantly...why do people do that? There has to be something in life that you enjoy doing, and there just simply has to be a way to make money from it. Right?

Let's do an experiment. If you hate your job, put something in the comments that you enjoy doing. Then, everyone else will try to make up a job for you. It'll be like career day back in high school, except without a hot cheerleader sitting behind you.

Unless, of course, that's something you just keep handy.

Time Keeps On Ticking...Kind've.

If I worked in an office every day, I'd post more than you could even read.

Divine Right

Good news, everyone! Our freedom is safe for another six months! President Bush, in his godly wisdom, has prodded the legislature into agreeing to an extension on the Patriot Act for another six months. Of course, it's not the permanant extension that our soon-to-be-king wanted, but that doesn't mean that it "questions...Mr. Bush's authority." No one can do that.

After all, without someone with total authority, how could we maintain a democratic state?
