jackofallgeeksWell, here's my life... Or something...
School's winding down. I forget a good part of this week -- a couple classes cancelled, a few advances made on Projects... Next week, we just have Monday and Tuesday, then we're off for Thanksgiving. I have to decide if I'm gonna stay here in my Dorm for most of the time (all my roomies will be gone, I believe), or if i'm going to stay at home, with my family. I so love my family, but I also have come to value my autonomy. I may end up bouncing back and forth, or something.
Thanksgiving has always been my favorite Holiday. I love all the food, and all the family, and I've even recently gotten to understand a little bit about football -- so while I may not get as ferociously excited as my uncles, I can enjoy the game. It also means seeing my brothers and a good part of my cousins. It's always good stuff.
Saw Alyce and crew at Anime USA today, and that rocked. Joe and I almost got to chat for a second, too, which was cool, but i'm a bit disappointed it wasn't more than a few words. Alyce, you can let Jo know I think he's a really cool guy. *nods to this* I think, if given the opportunity, he and I would get along really well. Or something.
On a more sour note, I can't stand the sort of humor which only finds expression in the cutting down of others. Why is it necessary to laugh at people? So they dress different, or talk with an accent, or walk in a certain way... I don't know, I've noticed my roomies (and others, I suppose) engaging in tis sort of humor, and it does nothing but anger me. As one case, we were listening to some of my music on a recent drive, and my roomies thought it was uproarously funny when they thought they heard sexual references in the lyrics of my foreign music. Really fucking classy, guys. that guts several points against it, for ragging on it because it's different and for being so juvenille as to turn it to sex and laugh at it... I don't know, it just feels so excruciatingly ignorant, and we ll know what a low tollerance for ingnorance I have.
Anyways, though, i'm gonna head off, as I have a prety large cough, a headache, and i'm still trying to reply to Suzannah's latest email. So much time and so little to do. No, wait. Backup, reverse that.

You have other redeeming qualities, though, and we do generally get along very well. -shrugs- I suppose, maybe, there are a lot of reasons why we shouldn't -- we're almost each other's antithesis in ways, if you think about it. But... -shrugs- The fact remains.

Person A: Hey, [Person ^] any word or phrase can be twisted to have some kind of sexual meaning attached, right?
Person ^: Oh man, that is so wrong! I mean, I say stuff like that all the time, but that is just plain WRONG!
Person 2: Point conceded.
