Afternoon Update for 1-19-6

It’s kind of funny how my mind goes into overdrive when I’m tired. Or maybe it’s being distracted. Second class, Spanish II, I found myself analyzing facial structures. Blame it on the Sims. People do look a lot alike. I’m tried noticing how people look different. Chins, noses, eyebrows, cheekbones. Most people have good cheekbones. It seems to be intrinsic to a healthy human. I noticed differences and the amusing thing is that none of it seems to make a huge aesthetic difference. A recessed chin, a prominant chin, it makes no difference in attractiveness. Of course, people have gotten phD’s for attractiveness theories. By the time you start talking about what the Defining Aesthetic Characteristics are, we’re probably not talking about anything relevant.

Nice thing about Spanish and Child Psych is that I get to smell girls for a duration of time. Mmmm. Place me surrounded by four or six nubile females, I’m going to smell something good. *purrs* I think it’s been a while since I’ve been around females, because I seem highly sensitive to stimuli. Girl sits down two chairs from me in child psych, and I can’t help but notice that her boobs are spilling out of her shirt/over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder. It’s like she has a flashing red light on her chest that says “HEY, HEY, IF YOU LOOK AT THIS, YOU’RE A PERV!”

*coughs* Yeah, I’ve been doing that all morning. What a bitch. Getting up this morning obviously wasn’t fun. First class was Systems Analysis. She broke us into four groups. We named ourselves Team Alpha. *nods* I feel more comfortable, since Adam’s in the same group. I know I won’t completely shrink away. We were doing Jeopardy in spanish and my group was like, “Say it!” I completely froze. Goddamn it, don’t do that to me on the second day of class. I knew what I had to say, my brain just couldn’t function.

Child psych looks to be a good third class. Apparently, the chick who teaches it has a good reputation. In explaining her own marathon, she said she enjoys teaching this course. For other developmental classes, she tries to be more formal, because people need that class as a requirement. But this class, she gets to do more what she wants. *nods* Dan Lomax and Erica are both in that class. Damn you, Panera. *laughs*

Erica would be the one who punched in a Fandango with No Plain. It’s a good story if anybody wants me to look it up.

I wonder how I’ll handle cursing. If you don’t mention cursing at all, then children will be taught by society, and then will believe that some arbitrary words are immoral to use; it would be assumed the reason they were never mentioned in the first place is because they’re “bad”. Teach kids that fuck and goddamn are creative artistic expressions of language, and you’ll run into some social problems with The Man. It’s not good if little Johnny says, “Two plus two is fuckin` five, man!” Though, I suppose “Please pass the fucking ketchup” is better than most kids do these days. Did say please, ya know. ; )

Ultimately, there’s no way to eliminate social stigmas in a single generation, as there’s always an echo from generations past. Best we can do is just be honest, I suppose. Fuck is just a word. It happens to be a very flexible word. No words are intrinsically immoral. But, there are more articulate words you can use. Heh. I wonder if there is such a thing as being Gramatically Offensive.

“Oh meh gawd, I can’t be friends with you cuz your vocabulary is just like not advanced and stuff.”

I peed. I came home and realized, “Wow. I haven’t eaten since I left. And. I haven’t emptied my bladder, either!” I’m drinking orange jews. I’m kind of hungry, but I don’t know what to eat. Goddamn it. Doesn’t it feel like we’re always eating? I love food, but like anything else, too much of it and I just get sick of it. This is why I sometimes forget to eat. I’m tired of eating! I’ve been eating a lot for weeks! Can’t I take a break? Meh.

I deserve to play Battlefront for a few hours. Or Sims, whatever.

Oh, reminds me. If you’d like an artist’s rendition of yourself in my game, let me know. All I need is decent picture or two, preferably one face-on and one profile, and some suggestions for point allocations. Messy/Neatness, Introverted/Outgoing, Lazy/Active, Serious/Playful, Mean/Nice; twenty-five points in all. I could just create an Open Diary house and let Free Will entertain me.
