You Make Me Feel So Young

"I was seeing this girl for about six months and then someone stole the binoculars out of my truck…"

-Larry the Cable Guy

Good day to all. The title is from a Frank Sinatra song that’s on Elf. I liked the song so I downloaded it and its now in my MP3 player. Its one of those songs that makes me glad I learned to sing. I want to see if I can find the music for it. Now I just have to learn to dance. Hehe. Anyway, things are going along with classes. Its that time that’s enough past the beginning of the semester that you feel like you need a break, but also deep enough into the semester that all the work tells you that no break is going to be forthcoming anytime soon. Arg! I have to come up with a movie pitch by tomorrow for my screen writing class and I’m still not sure of which one to do. I’ll think of something. Also I have to do some work on French. I hope I can get through that well enough. I just need to get used to practicing. And I need to continue exercising. And I’ve also probably damned myself because before all this work got heaped on me I had just gotten to the really interesting part in the book I’m reading and the game I’m playing. So I want to finish reading the book even though I have all this reading for my classes to do. And I want to finish my game even though I have all this homework and training to do. Ah, the wonders of procrastination.

*speaks in British voice* "I may get myself into a bit of a sticky wicket here."

You can tell I haven’t had as much sleep as I need. I found out today that the Palm that work was going to let me use is defective, so I can’t use it. But my boss never uses hers, so she said I could use it if I wanted to. I decided I’ll try it out, but if I’m not using it enough, there’s no reason to carry it around and the like.

Yesterday was my sister’s birthday. After work we met my parents at an Indian food place. I had been there once with my sister, but my parents had never been there. It was good. We got served by a very attractive Indian girl. My mother noticed and wanted me to go put my sweater on that I left in the car so I could "impress" her more. I did find her attractive, but even if I had been interested, its just weird to pick up a chick in front of your family. Anyway, with nothing more clever to say, I’ll just post this survey I borrowed from Nomadic Jellyfish. Good day to all.
