Today my brother reminded me of his wisdom with his sage words: "Aliens smart enough to visit Earth are smart enough not to." I love my family.

I found myself tickled with amusement when my brother came in from work today. This is pretty much why.

"How was work?"

"*deadpan* Long."

"How was your day?"

"*still deadpan* Boring."

That's not actually the part that tickled me, though. When my brother was off washing away the filth of a long, boring day, my mother came home right after him.

"How was work?"

"*sigh* Long."

"... How was your day?"

"*sigh again* Boring."

Talk about deja vu. ^_^

Am still recovering from last nights stunning plot twist on CSI (OMFG WTF?!). I meant to wake up early enough to see what The Today Show had to say about it. When I crawled out of bed at some godawful time of the morning, left the warm comfort of my room, and stood in the living room staring incoherently somewhere in the general vicinity of the TV, I decided that mornings are highly overrated and crawled back into bed. I then proceeded to sleep until two in the afternoon.

Heh. Can't wait until I start school again. Fun. *snort*

So my dad went off at the telly today as we watched Fox News. I don't know why he would waste his time with Fox, since they spend all of their time and effort touting the subtle intelligence of our dear President. (Narf.) I have a theory that involves an evil brainwashing device powered by gerbils used by the Fox News Network to brainwash the masses into denying reality, but I don't particularly feel like getting into it right now. Needless to say, I have entirely too much time on my hands, and the sleeping pills stopped working months ago.

But I digress.

Pops was flipping out over all of this illegal immigrants stuff (Fox has come up with this nifty little term: "illegals". "Illegals" is not a noun. "Illegals" isn't even technically a word.), and I guess I just don't get it. Either that, or I don't care. Personally, I'm thinking the latter. All I know is that, with as many illegal aliens in the US right now, there's bound to be some choice job opportunities SOMEWHERE in Mexico.

Well, one would only assume, right?

Considering the Democrats and the Republicans, I feel somewhat cheated. I don't want to camp for either party; the Democrats have tunneled their heads so far into the ground that the ones who DO stand up don't even know what the serious issues are anymore. The Republicans... are idiots.

I'd be a communist -power to the people and all that jazz- if I didn't have a preset judgement on the population as a whole, and have found a majority of them wanting.

I think I'll round off this little rant with three simple words: I hate politics.

Moving on.

Hmm. Less than two months before PotC: Dead Man's Chest comes to theaters. I can hardly wait. *starry eyes towards her ode to Jack Sparrow* Soon, Captain... Soon. I just hope the movie doesn't bomb like most sequels do. That would be heartbreaking.

I wonder when the mothership will come to take the Tom Cruise podperson back. Truthfully, I think we're all getting a little of it.

After reading over this entire entry, I suddenly realized just how much I wish my life was more interesting.

Ciao.

rants, family, politics, life
