That’s because all her boyfriends have been on steroids, so she knows what it’s really like.
I’m really hoping they weren’t talking about thee obvious here. Though being as these are college students, they probably were.

That’s the best you can do folks? I know you’re a student paper and all, but really!

Why am I so tired today? Because I had a series of interconnected nightmares last night.
First, I dreamed I was pregnant (I do not want to have children). Then (while pregnant) I had to go to my 20th class reunion (I do not want to go to my class reunion). Finally, to add insult to injury, when I arrived at the reunion, I didn’t have any pants.
I, of course, woke up mad at Michael.
Elevators. Please comprehend how they work.
If you are waiting for an elevator, there’s a very good probability that when the doors open, other people are going to want to get OFF the elevator. Especially when you’re waiting on the ground floor.
Therefore DO NOT CROWD AROUND THE DOORS BEFORE THEY OPEN!
There are only four of you waiting. You’re all going to fit.
So STAND BACK and BE PATIENT!
Thank you.

We’ve got tickets for African Footprint tonight.
It looks excellent, so I’m hoping we enjoy it as much as we liked Stomp (a show to which it has been compared.)
Now you know one of the best things about living in Morgantown–although it’s still a relatively small town, we get cool stuff because of the University.
Next show we have tickets for is BB King, and then the Peking Acrobats.

FANTASTICALLY AMAZINGLY AWESOME AWESOME AWESOME!
I suddenly realized why most Americans are not upset about the various invasions of privacy set forth by the Bush administration.
If you are willing to have private phone conversations in public, why would you care what else people knew about you?
John Scalzi, author of Old Man’s War, is having an auction to benefit the Disabled American Veterans Charitable Service Trust.
Last check, the action was above a thousand dollars, which is pretty awesome.
However, I think that above and beyond that thousand dollars, it would be even more awesome of those who are not bidding in this auction would take the time to support this organization. I’m not going to go into a political rant here, I’m simply going to say that this is an organization that does very good work–a work that all Americans should support.
I’m going to talk with Michael–or perhaps even make a command decision–and make my donation later today.
How about you?
