Dog Owners are Sick

Is your dog in heat and humping anything it can wrap its horny little legs around? Are you constantly having to pry your promiscuous pooch off the legs of guests, parents and members of your church? Protect your leg from a hump attack by getting Scruffy a Hotdoll. Yes, it’s a sex doll for dogs.

Catching Up

“The Holidays” are upon us, and frankly I’m not really feeling festive. I’ve been feeling quite alone since I left home; call it homesick if that pleases you (I’m sure it would my mom). But I’m sure at least part of it is spurred by this whole thing with Kerry or maybe it’s the other way ’round.

I’ll be going home Saturday morning though and staying there over the weekend to see my Dad’s side of the family for some Christmas cheer, and then on Sunday I’ll be over to the Hampton’s house for some celebrating with my closest friends. So if all that doesn’t help my mood…

Kerry’s Christmas present has had me down to; I couldn’t even bring myself to work on it last night even though I’m running out of time. I don’t think Kerry ever reads my blog, hardly anybody does, but just in case I won’t go into detail but after this weekend I’ll elaborate.

I’ve got a few people left on my gift list, including Chadd and both my parents. And some of the people I had crossed off my list I may have to go out and get more for because it would seem that 3 weeks is somehow not enough time to get something shipped .

Finals are done; I was happily surprised at how well I did with the Calculus final. I am honestly still concerned for my grade in that class, my promise to myself that I would do the homework this semester seems to have gone by the wayside again. It was the History final that didn’t go as well as I expected. It was an in-class writing thing. We were given 6 questions on Tuesday, and he would pick three the day of the final, we were to write on two. We get a notes sheet, but I spent so long working on Math that I didn’t even read the questions until my break between Math and History, so I barely had time to review the book on the subjects and the questions he picked I was pretty weak on. Hopefully my previous grades will buffer me on this. And the teacher seems to like my writing. He gave me an 85% on a paper that I honestly didn’t think was worth of the mark, but hey who can object to that. I did my Accounting final Tuesday evening, blazed though it without even studying, but was disappointed when my final grade was posted. Other than a few missing homework assignments (the bane of my academic life) I had nearly 100% on everything I did so I was fairly certain of an A. It turned out to be a ‘B’, which isn’t bad, just not expected.

I’m all moved into my new place now, even though there are still a lot of boxes in the garage. We got internet and cable TV on Monday, but I left the TiVo remote when I moved, so no TiVo yet. My computer is obviously setup in the new office; I’ll take pictures when I get a chance. My bedroom is awfully sparse now, nothing but the bed and a bookshelf of Die-Cast cars fill it with any substance. I used one of my packing boxes as a nightstand for now, and my lights that were mounted above my bed on the wall for reading before, are now just sitting on the window sill to provide the only lights in the room. Now that I’m in, I’ve thought of more things that I can use, but all too late for the Christmas list I fear. Things like floor lamps and end tables. The house doesn’t have overhead lighting except in the kitchen and living rooms (something I have trouble understanding in new homes) so I need to get more lighting for the other rooms. I could really use something other than a box for a nightstand. And a couple coffee tables would suit our living room nicely.

I started into reading the 4 book in “The Wheel of Time” series, “The Shadow Rising” my only complaint so far is that the first two chapters are nearly 100 pages long, and cover like 5 different people. It should have been a new chapter for each of the people, but I digress. I must say that I haven’t been wholly impressed with the endings in any of the previous books, although the books on whole have been excellent. One of my favorite series “The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant”, which a lot of people find to be a tedious read, had endings that left you feeling like you were really there and could smell the battles.

I should end now though, and get back to actually working, Happy Holidays to all.

Ugly Morning

NOTE: This post may get a little bit more descriptive than you are interested in reading, just know I warned you.

I’m writing this message hungry, thirsty and in pain. But let me start at the beginning…

Yesterday I had a class canceled because my Phisics teacher was out sick so I was able to meet Kerry at her work for lunch. Kerry is a teacher at a preschool, and her kids are all pre-walking and pre-talking. I spent a little bit of time with her and her kids, some of them are pretty cute and playful.

Anyway, after sharing a lunch, I headed home to take a nap (I had only had 4 hours of sleep that night) and to start studying for the Physics Exam that was this morning. I got a little bit of studying in, and decided to not stay up late so I would be well rested for the exam. This is the turning point in my little tale. This morning I awoke at about 3am feeling queasy. Now I’ve only felt this way one other time so I was a little unsure of it, but decided I should go make a trip to the bathroom, turned out to be a good plan. Hovering over a toilet seat is never fun, but when you have an exam later that morning you really start to worry. After I had finished with my head over the toilet I quickly realized that … how do I say this nicely … I was in an immediate need to sit also .

probably about 20 minutes after I had first awoke I was done and my mind was racing to figure out what was wrong with me. And my first though, the one that made the most sense was that when I shared lunch with Kerry I got a Wonton with some bad crab in it. Good, I had figured it out, taken care of it and maybe now I could get back to bed and rest.

WRONG

I have not slept more than 30 minutes straight since 3am and I have I egressed the pizza from the night before. And the lunch before that. I egressed a box of Milk Duds from the sixth grade. I have egressed stuff that did not even want to be egressed. Just in the time its taken me to write this I’ve made several trips to the bathroom.

Needless to say I had to skip my Physics Exam. The teacher does drop the lowest test score for these exact reasons but he will not offer any kind of make up exam. As well I took a sick day from work. I’m finally to the point where I can stand up without getting dizzy or queasy. I think I’m over the hump.

I talked to Kerry a little while ago while she was on her lunch break, and it turns out that it wasn’t bad crab, but rather all her kids had the same sort of thing. Mystery solved, and future solution, don’t ever visit Kerry at work again
