Still weird.
I set my alarm for 6:45 because I've become so immune to waking up at the butt-ass crack of dawn. I've had two cups of black coffee (with sugar) so far, and I'll probably be working on another two large ones at school. I'm excited to be starting my second year of big person school. I have my two trusty binders all set up and I'm already scared shitless of my Spanish class. Conversations? Are you kidding me? Maybe I was better off picking the most American sounding name, regardless of the class time. My professor's name is very much Spanish.
All I've been doing is watching the news and CNN. I've even been watching FOX NEWS with my grandpa. Don't assume--I only do it to insult every little condescending remark they make. I love my grandpa but Bill O'Reilly is a giant turd that really is in no place to be belittling other people, ESPECIALLY presidential candidates. His commentary is incredibly sour, and when I see him and hear his stereotypical bitter old man voice, I just want to destroy my TV screen with a cinder block. He is a sexist asshole and this whole Palin situation pisses me off by the day. "God's plan"--hilarious. Separation of church and state seems to be completely eliminated. Ignore the homeless people on the street, the people whose homes are being taken away by greedy banks, and the pregnant teens who have never sat through a true sex ed. course. IT'S ALL GOD'S PLAN. I'm all for spiritual enlightenment but fuck that, I'll make my own plan.
Politics get me all jittery and loud. It could be the caffeine, but I mostly think I get it from my mother.
I still find it weird that I'm working at a gym. Me, the girl who walked during gym class. Me, the girl who shooed away the teachers when they would say "one more unprepared and you fail." I find it even more weird that I sincerely enjoy my job and the company of my new bosses who drink muscle milk. Yes, muscle milk.
I must say, I give mad cred. to the people who protested at the RNC. A peaceful poverty march turned wrong. Tear gas. Motherfuckers throwing up the peace sign in the face of cops and news cameras. I wish I was there.
I plan to do a Beast Cancer walk in October, the Avon breast cancer walk and AIDS walk in NY in the spring. Sometimes I feel so selfish but I'm trying to change. Well, not change--improve is a better term.
Enjoy your day and listen to some Bowie,
