hello blogger; good morning. how'd you sleep? a little late in the day to finally roll out of bed, isn't it, blogger? well, that's all right, i understand; it is finals period after all. i do wish you hadn't eaten my last two attempted entries -- no, no, not too angry. don't worry, darling *blows blogger a kiss*

at the moment i'm trying to figure out my course schedule for the next two years. i have to compose and hand in my sophomore paper afore i go. i'm doing a special major in american studies. the question is, should i submit myself to the Honors program or should i just be a reglar ol major and be able to minor in film and media? the plus of doing it honors, as far as i can tell, is that people will think i'm smart. if anyone has further insights on this, please feel free to share them. since i'd very much like to minor in film&media, i'm thinking maybe the respect factor is a little shallow and dumb. but hey, i couldn't think it too shallow and dumb -- after all, i am here, aren't i?

i found a maggot on a piece of chocolate i was eating this afternoon. i shrieked and threw the thing across the room. i cite this as example of why the spark's gender test has now decided i'm a woman after all. they're even 80% sure. last year they were 86% sure i was a man. of course last year i would have been just as likely to throw a piece of food with a maggot curled up on the top of it across the room but maybe that part of me was more repressed then.
becca on the phone this morning said, referring to her autiography, "it's a sad, sad story. about why i'm sad." priceless.
and am i the only one who thinks segway is the best invention evereverever? and can't wait to see millions of senior citizens zooming their way around cities? and advertisers sheepishly, grudgingly, teeth-grittedly revamping their campaign from "cool new gadget for kids!" to "helps arthritics get around! free with AARP membership!"? heh heh heh
