This isn't an answer, it's a question.  I don't know.  I'm not even sure I understand the concept of family outside of people that you know because you're related to them.  But if you take that view, then you're just re-enforcing the view that humans are the joke of the universe.  It's like family is the universe's way of saying, "Here you go, ( Read more... )

I think that it would be good to have a girl friend... rather a girlfriend.  I know it's St. Patrick's day, but sometimes it I long for the companionship of a woman and my lesbian girl (space) friend isn't cutting the carpet.  It could also be that I've been drinking, but it could also be the truth.  Why is it that my relationship with a lesbian is ( Read more... )

This has been one of the strangest winter's I think I can remember for Texas, the mid-western blizzardy winds are fighting with the warm Mexican winds so ever three or four days it goes from being in the 70s to being in the 30s here.  Yesterday was a 70s day, beautiful outside... of course I spent the bulk of the day indoors with classes, but I don ( Read more... )

I'm reluctant to admit it, but Wash is right, its sad and funny all at the same time.  That may need some explanation.  Of course its funnier if I just leave that statement as is with absolutely no explanation at all ( Read more... )

So Chem-girl made me pancakes today ( Read more... )

So I'm a little concerned about Chem-girl right now.  We met for coffee Friday evening and she had vaguely mentioned some issues going on in her life and then said she was going to go to an Al-Anon meeting that night.  I didn't want to pry, so I let her go without digging.  Then today she texted me (sort of out of the blue) asking about my physics ( Read more... )

I'm getting very tired of Proffessors telling me to google something if I don't know how to do something.  What are they there for?  Why don't colleges and universities offer degrees in Google searching?  I can see it now, job interviews of the future ( Read more... )

Maybe I'm the only one who has ever experienced this, but I've sent my fair share of e-mails and text messages where right after hitting send, it hits me that the message I just send was a stupid idea.  Not just that it may have been a stupid message, I've sent out plenty of stupid messages and not regretted sending them.  No, I'm talking about the ( Read more... )

So about a week and a half ago I moved up to Toshi Station from Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru's moisture farm.  I'm now a three minute walk to campus.  The new place is about the size of a shoebox, but I'm really close to school; no more hour long drives to and from.  So far the only down side is that I don't care for the local Starbucks, the college ( Read more... )

Tomorrow is the Calculus 2 final... Not looking forward to it... I did spend most of today with Chem-girl studying though, so there is that.  I really like having her as a friend, I just wish I could stop thinking about things like holding her in my arms, or kissing her; you know, things that can never happen.  Other than a few bad thoughts I  ( Read more... )
