Question posed by a funny phone call my sisters made to me yesterday evening.

Sammi, the youngest, was in Lawrence yesterday at some leadership thingy at KU for middle school students. I guess one of the things they had to do was an ice breaker where they give you a list of traits like has black hair and been out of the country et cetera, and ( Read more... )

It totally reinforces my impression that (most) middle-aged women are bitches when a cop fitting that age and sex tells me that because I went up to David's room no crime was committed.  I guess I should have waited to see if he raped me or something, then maybe they'd have shown a little interest.  Right; I must have missed that cultural custom ( Read more... )

 Tuesday I found out that my buddy Seth, who December of my senior year did something incredibly stupid and then boasted about it at some bar (even more incredibly stupid), has finally had his trial.  20 yrs.  14 before elegible for parole.  Yeah ...

I am really sick of school and everything involved with it. Let's see how pissed off I go to work tonight. At least it's the last day up there.

By everything involved with it, I mean the state journalism thing, too, which is tomorrow, and I still know next to jack about it. So, fuck it, I don't think I'm going--if I were in the mood that I am today ( Read more... )
