My Copyright class was cancelled today. The class usually begins at 2:10. As the Brewers game started at about the same time, I am calling this a sign that I'm meant to watch it. Go divine intervention ( Read more... )

The final piece of "The War" documentary is on tomorrow night at 7:00. I've watched all of it so far. If you haven't, I ask simply that you watch the end of it. The stories in this documentary don't just need to be told, they need to be listened to. What our grandparents went through should never be forgotten. Thank you.

My folks are on the road to Angel Fire, NM right now. Frackin' jerks, going to Angel Fire without me. Again. Just because I have to work doesn't mean I can't go. Oh wait, yes it does. Damn it...

I might also be in the market for a...sigh cell phone. The antennae on my current on is kinda being held on by tape right now. First real problem I've had ( Read more... )
