I got a MOTHERFUCKING A on my research paper on mandatory sentencing! Yay! Thanks to my editor/SIL S for helping me smooth it out!
I took my 3rd history test in under a 1/2 hour yesterday, and I either did really well or really badly. If it's the latter, I'm fucked.
I gained back 3 of the 9 lbs. I lost over Thanksgiving. I couldn't help it! It was so delicious! Come on: Sweet Potato Crunch? Mashed Potatoes with Sour Cream From Heaven? Deep Fried Turkey? How can you not? Man, I wish Thanksgiving was tomorrow again.
I'm coming home for a few days next week! Man, I can't wait to see the ocean. *sigh*
M's mom felt like crap yesterday, which really sucks. You know, when someone is about to go through chemo, you brace yourself for the absolute worst. Then, when they're like "I feel great!", you're all happy and relieved, so when they have a bad day, you get really upset. M was so sad for his mom yesterday, and he's like 1,000 miles away so I can't give him a big hug and pet his baldhead. I really hate to see that family upset about anything.
Parker is fucking cute.
If you haven't gotten the new Green Day (American Idiot), please go buy it today. It's so frigging good. I mean, yes, it's reminiscent of The Who's Tommy but it's got a little Lou Reed, a little Beatles, even a little (god forbid) Meatloaf. Don't download it. Buy it. You have to listen to the songs in order (it's a "punk opera"). Fantastic.
I feel sort of bad about how I treated the Avril Lavigne kid in my class yesterday. He said, while we were talking about sexual harassment, "Why do girls always make you pay on dates?" I just want to punch him. I turned around in front of everyone and said "Have you ever even been on a date?" Ugh. Everyone laughed, which made me feel worse, but that's not how I meant it at all. I meant it as a "What year are you living in?" sort of way. So, I spent the remaining 20 minutes of class apologizing and giving him dating advice. Hopefully he's sterile.
I really hate those ribbon magnets on peoples cars. "Support Our Troops" or "Pray for our Troops"! How about "No". Don't tell me what to do, especially when your stupid magnet is on your ten-ton SUV that is sucking the oil from the delicate veins of this planet already. How about "Support alternate sources of fuel so we don't rely so much on the middle east for oil which causes our troops to go to war in the first place, Brainiac". That would be a big motherfucking ribbon.
