Dear Google, I love you and want to have your children

• Dear Google, I love you and want to have your children

Yeah I'm really serious, I think Google is now the coolest thing in the world. I actually called my girlfriend up and said I was leaving her for a website. Remember how I said I was looking for articles related to premotor and supplemental cortical influence on fine motor control of the hand? I searched for articles on Ovid, Pubmed, Cinnal, Sciencedirect, and through my own university's journals and found nothing. Google came to my rescue. If you click on the "more" section for Google you will be taken to an area were Google is set to look at very specific areas of the web. One is named Google scholar and I was very skeptical at first glance. I tried it and was immediately greeted with the first three results being EXACTLY what I needed. To make things even better all three articles were full text pdf files that I was able to download immediately. I almost cried in joy. Ah Google, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

• Something about raw eggs and getting sick?

I am still trying to understand what happened yesterday and what is still happening to me today. I awoke around 4 am yesterday and proceeded to position myself in the perfect porcelain Goddess worship kneel. You know, where you grip the sides of the porcelain Goddess, straighten your back, and then proceed to feel all of your back, abdominal, etc. muscles contract in unison to expel everything the contents of your stomach. As you cry afterwards you get to try and identify the last things you ate that didn't make it into your small interesting before your worship of the Goddess. Finally you have the presence of mine to clean yourself up and flush the disease ridden filth into the nether world, then proceed to lean up against the bath tub and shudder until your body regains a semblance of control. Brushing my teeth and using Listerine has never been such a wonderful thing before moments like these. Unfortunately I had to do the same thing over again in the morning, around 8. This time I had to help my body perform the necessary actions to ride myself of the oncoming feeling of sickness. Normally I don't enjoy activating my gag reflex, but I felt much much better for doing so. The rest of the day was a disaster as I tried to focus on researching neurology for a paper due this Tuesday and fend off my feelings of sickness. Today I actually ate food but I still have a hard time functioning. I suppose if I take it slow I will be alright.
     On a higher note I did get to watch the Goonies yesterday in an attempt to make myself feel better. However, I am rather pissed off that I didn't get to play crack with my old roommate. I am sure he wasn't very happy about me not being there. Friday night I did draw a little bit! I am very happy that I was able to, what I drew isn't very good but it is a start to something I hope that I can do everyday.
     Well I am going to get back to work and see if I can make something out of the dozen or so articles that I have found concerning the premotor and supplementary corticies effects on fine motor control of the hand.

eggs, babies, google, sick
