man, this sucks.
first of all, i've got that sore throat thingy that randi had. i don't know if they're sympathy pains because they seem pretty real to me. maybe it's from talking on the phone with her so much. y'know? our mouths are in such close proximity to each other and such.
yeah yeah, shut the fuck up.
and then, i've got a katakana quiz in like... eight hours. yeah. fuck that.
oh, and to put icing on this god damned cup cake of a week, i have a journalism paper due on thursday that i had no idea about. this is even less time than the 14 or 15 pager that i belted out two papers ago (about a month i think).
so yeah. i'm pretty much in an unhappy place. oh how i wish i could return to the red misted glory world where the roads were empty and twisty.
god i sound like a fucking geek.
but yeah... me and randi both agree that i am a geek. my love for political satire seems to be the basis for it.
the funny thing is i hardly know shit about politics.
randi thinks i should be a political science major.
but the thing is i don't want to be one of those talking heads because i usually think they're full of shit.
...regardless of the fact that i too am full of shit.
or is it "irregardless"? maybe it's just "iregardless"? nah, it'd probably be the one with two "r"s.
fuck... i wonder if Fox News is considered global media?
i'm also considering just doing a history on CNN or AP or Reuters. although i'm not sure how to connect them with the effects of global media on society.
see, that's why i wanted to do Fox News, because of their supposed "Fox Effect" in which every cable news station needs to have a severely biased right winger to appeal to the conservative fuck-heads out there who think we're all homo-pot smokers. true, a lot of us are homo-pot smokers, but they're just unable to deal with their ability to live up to the metrosexual in all of us.
okay, so that was pretty gay of me.
but still... i hate conservatives.
my journalism teacher seems eager to see what kind of political satire i'll write for this paper due on thursday. too bad i have absolutly no idea what it'll be. i'm seriously thinking of just doing that fox effect thing... he only gave me a 45/50 for my 14 page rant on the right. so i figure i can sorta get away with it on this one. but then again... i did have more than one source for that paper. this one... i can find one New York Times article referring to the "fox effect." that's it. one. shit.
i am fucked.
hmm...
plus, i only went in to work for four hours today. i was feeling pretty sick after classes so i called in and told judah i was sick so i didn't think i should go in today, so he said it was fine, but offered to alter my schedule so i could go home, rest a little, and then come in at six instead of 2:30. so i agreed so i would still get money. and then, when i got to work, kevin said he would put me on schedule from 2-5 on friday so i could make up the three hours i didn't come in for. so its all cool. i still get my 21 hours for the week. or something like that. whatever.
shorter shifts are easier to live with anyway.
oh my god... i'm just typing to avoid the inevitable.
i'd really like to know how the world is going to end. i've been questioning it since everyone said that the year 2000 would be the end of time. i began to question whether it would end by time zones or by GMT. or maybe God has his own little clock somewhere. what if Hawaii Standard Time is where God set his little international date line? man, would that be fucked up or what!
can you tell i'm really tired? well, not really tired, i'm physically still pretty awake, but i think my brain's gone looney. i should go.
