I think I can help, but not myself

Just downloaded the new Gnarls Barkley, REM, and Dodos. I like me the Gnarls. It goes well with breakfast. Haven't listened to the others yet but they had pretty good reviews and if someone else likes them, then I know I will have to also.

The clock on this computer is set to CA time, but also in the evening. So it says that it is 929 PM right now, instead of 830 AM. I tried to reset it but it auto corrected my changes. Which makes me wonder: what clock is it checking itself against? And if that clock is correct, why am I behind 13 hours? It does explain why my five o'clock shadow comes earlier than expected nowadays.

Nowadays: Underused phrase that should stay underused.

I took two tests yesterday to become a teacher. I don't know if I passed and I would mention which sections I had troubles with but that would violate the very serious agreement I made with the National Evaluation Systems people that said I would not discuss test questions with any parties. That and I forgot the sections I had trouble with. Something about the Constitution?

Well, that's all I have for now. More later if the pen is willing...

When I am king, you will be first against the wall

I, too, have been disappointed with myself. Not only am I searching craigslist for summer work, but I just saw on Fox's hit tv show COPS a mulletted man get chased down by aging officers and eventually arrested. My wife just said, "You're an idiot. Tool." I think she was talking to the TV, not me. At least I hope so. That's what I get for sitting next to her while ruminating.

I am not sure what I'm going to do for the talent show that's coming up for school. I'm not funny enough to do stand-up (which is what my coworkers suggested today) and I'm not sure that I want to do anything that's not funny. D suggested interpretive dance. To Nickelback. I don't think I'm religious, but if I danced to Nickelback, I would be sure there was no God.

Stephen is doing well in the academy. It's fun to watch him get excited about something.

I just learned Radiohead is going to be at Lollapalooza this year. I wanted to have Lollapalooza in my jeans when I heard that. Which would be loud and uncomfortable, but SOOOO worth it.

I really need to learn to commmunicate in full sentences. And better spelling.

The end.
