I have a hear in the back of my mouth, almost in my throat. I hate it when that happens.
Meh... people.
So did I, Em. And watching TV. But I woke up later and apparently someone had moved my computer to the floor and turned off the TV.
I got up to answer the door a few minutes ago. I looked awful, since I've been lazy all morning, but I figured I just had to sign for a package or something. It turned out to be an Orkin guy, who wanted to ask about our pest problems, since our neighbors have been having problems as well, which was fine. Except he was completely hot and I haven't even brushed my teeth or fixed my hair since I woke up.
TCM has some weird karaoke thing with all these songs from old movies on.
I probably saw you Rogue. Too bad I didn't know who you were.
When did you buy your poster?

I ahd my first class of "Education in a multicultural society" today.
It was kind of interesting. S. Florida is very diverse, as you may know.
The teacher is absolutely fantastic. Anyway- she gives us an assignment. We split into 4 groups of 8.
She tells us to write down these categories:
Gay and Lesbians
Immigrants
The aged
Asian Males
Native Americans
American Females
American Males
African American Females
African American Males
Hispanic Females
Hispanic Males
Muslims
We then had to write 15 stereotypes for each. We were hesitant at first because we felt bad- we had just met each other and we didn't want to offend. Once we began to think- we got a lot more than 15 for each.
There is 1 muslim in the class and you could tell everyone was really iffy about connecting the stereotype of muslim to terrorist but we really let it all out- it was kind of therapy in a way.
Other examples were:
Asian males have small pen*ses
Asians are smarter
African American males are prone to crime
African American women have large butts
Old people can't drive.
Asians own nail shops
Gays and Lesbians can easily get AIDS
Gays and Lesbians are flamboyant
Immigrants own small family shops
White males try to be like Hispanics and blacks
Hispanic males wear "Bling"
African American guys are athletic
White American girls are prissy and b*tchy
Native Americans are money hungry
Sounds like an interesting class...
I think lesbians are least likely to get AIDS.
My mom came home sick from work. I don't feel well myself, but I feel bad that I'm not doing anything to help her out.
I just got my mole removed. They had to cut it off, so they froze it first. Now my armpit is numb, it's so weird.
Something bit me behind the ear. I'm trying to figure out if the weirdness I'm feeling is a nervous reaction or if I'm actually in danger.
Did they use that liquid nitrogen stuff, CanadianSnowbird?
Interesting class you have going on there...did anyone get jumped afterwards? I'm serious.
I just went through a whole 15 minute carb craze. Oh I hate not having anything I must to at this current moment in time that requires my undivided attention.
I just got called b*tchy by my aunt, but apparently she finds the whole thing amusing and it doesn't bother her one bit.
EDIT: Apparently, my best friend agrees. Nice, right?
I haven't posted here in forever.
SweetQ, I had a class like that last semester.
This weekend I went to my boyfriend's lake house, which was a lot of fun. We went swimming and went on the jet ski. Today I had an interview at Blockbuster, and I'm pretty sure I got the job, which makes me happy. I also got another internship at my favorite radio station!
No it was too big to freeze off, they just froze it to make it numb so they could cut it. Whatever freezing thing they gave me wore off during my nap, so now it really hurts.
Does the "empower your career" banner that appears at the top of the page freak anyone else out. I think it's the mask in the right corner, but it just gives me the creeps.

Everyone seemed to handle it fine and very maturely. We are college students, after all.
I just hope nobody drops the class because they were offended. I think the excersize really opened up and showed how mean and judgemental we can be- often without realizing it.
*collapses*
Such a long day. I have a job, though!
Yay! What's the job?
Went to eye doctor...spent over two hours there mostly waiting!
I only got one stitch out but my vision is MUCH better. In a month it went from 20/80 to 20/50...which is amazing! YAY!
That's great, congratulations, Caitie.
Fantab: It's working as a lab assitant on a civil engineering project studying microbial growth in water pipes. Which seems rather random, but I think that any microbio lab experience will be a plus.
Thanks!
That sound kinda interesting, especially if it will be a plus in the future!

My brother just got kidnapped by his friends.
This is one of my favorite episodes of Sex and the City (the one where Big gets engaged). "Your girl is lovely, Hubble."

I am freaking out right now.
Neddy, are you freaking out b/c it's a scary situation about your kidnapped brother (which may have been humorously posted...but I can't tell on a board)...or just freaking out in general??? I'm so confused. If it's serious, I hope everything turns out fine.

Well okay they are both about my brother.
My brother was kidnapped for his 18th birthday, his friends got dressed up in black with ski masks and put a jacket over him, threw him in a Bently I think is the name of the car, and they are taking him to a Red Hot Chilli Peppers concert.
Now what is freaking me out is that I had to shut down his computer, and when I did, I snooped around and don't like what I found.

Oh, Please! You can't say that and then not tell us what you found!
Spill the beans!
*looks sheepishly*
I kind of want to know, too....
