my first post is today!

So this has to be the third or fourth blog. Maybe I'll try and keep this one up, unlike all the other (material) relationships I've had in my life -- this one is going to last (not likely), but we'll see. Oh I miss my piano, which I recklessly abandoned; my super nintendo, with whom I have tried to reconcile with by offering 'new' exciting games like uniracers and mortal kombat 3 or 2, I don't really remember which one; and my VCR player, which I have utterly taken for granted.

Anyway, today has been a strangely ordinary one, although there was a 'hurricane' (and what kind of a person would name a hurricane Dolly or Edouard, which I have such a hard time spelling). It took me 45 minutes to look up information on it because I couldn't type the name in correctly -- Google kept asking in bold italics, 'do you mean edward, stupid? or perhaps eduardo?' I know when the internet is laughing at me, which is often.

So after reading/watching 'life-threatening' information on the tropical storm, I ate some breakfast while watching the rain just trickle outside then read the Fountainhead... I read a lot of it (not in comparison to the book though, which is about 700 pages, just a lot for me because I read like a first grader). It was kind of intense, so I had to take a break. What Ayn Rand considers erotic is a bit strange, but I guess I can see why she wrote it like that. She is such a strange woman... but she has a smart haircut (I'm envious of her ability to wear a bob, and I guess her ability to write).

I think it's been enough sitting around for me. I have to get off my big butt and study or do something more productive than having my vision impaired by this computer screen...which reminds me -- I need to pick up my contacts, or else I'll be blind for the next 6 months.
