Okay, so I really don’t know what to write about. My dreams have been getting really weird. I think I blogged about the dream I had about T-Bone, but I don’t think I’ve been documenting my Buffy the Vampire Slayer dreams.
The dream I had last night had sea gulls. I should probably look up what sea gulls mean in my dream book.
“To dream of gulls, is a prophecy of peaceful dealings with ungenerous persons.” - By Gustavus Hindman Miller, 10,000 Dreams Interpreted: an Illustrated Guide to Unlocking the Secrets of Your Dreamlife
I can’t figure out who exactly would be ungenerous to me. I wish I knew. Why couldn’t I dream I’d come into a couple of million dollars?

Alright. I’m starting to figure out iWeb. Not easy though. I think I’m going to have to buy one of those how-to books. I’m not having much luck trying to figure it out. It seems so difficult at times. I guess I’m just too used to having everything the way I need. Adding pictures is easier with iWeb because I don’t have to link externally. I just drop and go.
I won’t talk about school today. Ha! I can’t believe I actually mentioned it.
There was something I wanted to blog about tonight but it completely slipped my mind. I think I need to take some ginko biloba. I was surfing the Web today and came across a story at Townhall.com. It had something to do with gays serving in the military and the title of the entry was “Gays in the military: What would George Washington think?” Not quite sure about this. I’m certain George Washington, the first American General and slave owner, would have laughed at the idea of a Negro being a free person so he would probably laugh about gays in the military. I was just failing to see the analogy. I must be stubborn when it comes to illogical arguments.

I’m trying to figure out how to work iWeb because I’m thinking about hosting my Web site through Mobile Me instead of Dot5hosting. For some reason, I really hate how long it takes for me to post to my blog. I don’t know if it has anything to do with the server but it’s annoying.
I can’t seem to figure out iWeb. In theory, it seems to be easy but in practice, it’s proving to be difficult. I What I don’t like about iWeb is I can’t seem to save the settings I like. I will have to evaluate my options further when I’m done with school because I have a lot of reading to do.
No school talk today. Someone shared some rather disturbing information. I generally don’t enjoy having my coworkers tell me about their sex life. Part of the reason is, I don’t care to know and the other reason is, I don’t want to know. Does that make sense? But the biggest reason is the imagery behind it.
I remember reading something in one of Shakespeare’s play about a beast with two backs. That Shakespearian for two people having sex. Just how big can this beast get? And if the beast is rather large, how much weight could the bed hold before it collapsed under the weight and constant movement?
Also, I’ve been thinking a lot about the body’s ability to digest food and get rid of waste. There’s this man who lives across the street, and sometimes when I leave for work in the morning he sits in his garage looking up and down the street. There’s nothing wrong with that but he likes to sit without a shirt on and he has the biggest, roundest, almost shiny belly I’ve ever seen. I kind of want to poke it to see if it’s soft.

Somebody’s going to bed pissed off. I will blog about it tomorrow. I’m exhausted and I need to get some sleep.
You know what I noticed about men, most of them are lazy. They don’t put forth any effort, especially when women are around. They just automatically assume the women are going to take care of it.
I’m going to have to give props to the Feminazis. If it weren’t for them, women would dependent on or have to carry lazy men and get nothing in return but an empty stomach and a bad back.

The weather has cooled down a bit. I’m glad for that because I hate to sweat.
I don’t have much to blog about. In fact, I’m going to go to bed early. I’ve had a long weekend and I got up before the sun rose for the last three days to do research for school.
Here’s to another fricken week. 23 more weeks to go until I’m finished with school.

I had another dream about T-Bone. It was a nice dream one I wish I could have every night. I’m not sure why he was the person that was in my dream because I haven’t seen him in a year and we didn’t know each other that well and I can’t even say he was my type or I his.
I’d describe the details of my dream but I think it’s way too intimate for that. There was no sex involved but it was still the kind of dream you keep to yourself.
I’m a very slow writer when I have to write about something that doesn’t interest me. I will be so happy in two weeks when I am able to take a break from my studies and work. Just one long week of doing nothing but looking for a new job.
Four more weeks!
There was something I was meaning to write about. I can’t remember though. I hate the fact that I can’t remember anything.
I went to the post office for the first time in months.

I’m tired of school. I’ve decided I’m going to take a break from school for one week in September to just relax and do nothing (hopefully). I have a feeling I will be traveling to Michigan to look at real estate that week. It will be a welcomed break.
I had to fill out a pos-deployment assessment survey a few weeks ago. I got a call from a military doctor. She asked me a question about my anger and i told her sometimes I do feel like smacking somebody but I don’t get a chance to because the people I want to smack are people I correspond with over the net.
Take today for example. There were a totally of 6 people on my I-want-to-smack-the-hel-out-of list. I didn’t hit them though. I wanted to so desperately.
When I feel a little like I’m going to hit someone, I’ll just call the 1-800 number they gave me.
Well, I have to get to working on my stuff for school. I have to write about 500 words before I go to bed. Too easy.

I went to a quarter auction. I don’t feel like explaining the quarter auction but there were a couple of mugs that I would have loved to get my hands on. I don’t know why they came in a pair. If I could have purchased only one mug I would have just ordered one but they came in a set. I wish my friend had won those mugs because I totally would have bought one from her. Dang, dang, dang.
Anyway, I decided that when I get my new computer, I will purchase a Mobile me account for one year.
I have to get some sleep. I am a little relieved that one of my teammates took initiative and posted the team answer to the discussion question due tonight. I was a little disappointed because the citations were wrong. How hard is it to look up citations in the APA style manual? Apparently, it’s pretty darn difficult.
I decided that when I move into my own place, I will have a shoes off policy. I don’t want people walking around my domain with filth from outside. I’m also going to make sure I maintain a clutter-free kitchen. I don’t see a need to fill every inch of counter space with stuff, unless the stuff happens to be cookbooks, which I have plenty of.
Speaking of cookbooks, I’ve been meaning to buy Nigella Lawson’s How to Be a Domestic Goddess: Baking and the Art of Comfort Cooking and Forever Summer. I actually had my eye on Forever Summer since my foot surgery 4 years ago. I watched her tv program on the Style Network while I was on bed rest. Awesome recipes.
Well, sorry to be abrupt, but I can’t blog about food because I don’t want to tempt myself into eating anything right before going to bed.

Yesterday’s blog entry was very disappointing. I was going to write something interesting today about Dave Chappelle’s sense of humor but the images I was going to link to have been removed from the net.
So much for free speech, even if it is ignorant.
Anyway, the website with the pictures I’m referring to is Brangolf. I came across this website a few years ago and in the humor section were what I considered disturbing caricatures of blacks and Jews.
What I think is ironic about the pictures is they are no different that the portrayals of blacks in movies like Soul Plane and the skits I’ve seen on Dave Chappelle’s show, yet the content of Brangolf is considered racist and Soul Plane and Dave Chappelle’s Show are/were considered funny. I don’t get it. What’s the difference? I thought I was going to cry when I saw Soul Plane. If you haven’t seen it, don’t watch it.
Ha! I just read Dave Chappelle’s Wikipedia page. If this page is true, then even Dave Chappelle started to question the content of his show.

I was going to write something good about that comedian that everybody but me thinks is so funny. My golly, I can’t even remember the dudes name! Dang. It must not be that important or I would have
1) read the past three days of my blog to find his name
2) watch Comedy Central. His show is bound to show up.
I really don’t have anything to write about. I think I will call it an early night.
