Bought and watched Fahrenheit 9/11 last night. I was not impressed at all. I also bought Farenhype 9/11 since it was right next to Fahrenheit at Wal-Mart last night. I watched the first few minutes of Hype, but really didn't care to finish it because I really didn't think everything Moore said was true to begin with. I wouldn't call his movie a documentary. It's more like an editorial. I'm also annoyed with the way he goes about confronting people. The only part of the movie that disturbed me was the footage of the soldiers messing around with the Iraqi prisoners. This also makes me mad because on of the guys I work with, Jon the bastard, has talked about his personal collection of dead Iraqi pictures and how cool they are. I find that extremely sickening. I do believe I wasted a good two hours watching that crap, but it didn't make me dislike Bush any more.
I still have my paper to write and I don't know what to say. I think I'll be able to crank out 500 words before tomorrow. Then I'll have him look over it and see what he thinks I should change. Hopefully I'll have something to turn in before I leave tomorrow.
The cat's supposed to get fixed tomorrow. I never called them to change the appointment. Hopefully Ian will look after her. I will probably have to offer him large sums of money, but she's worth it.
I saw two roaches near my bed last night. The day I wake up with a roach on my body is the day I move out. There was a Peace Corps ad in the paper yesterday which made me check out there website. I think after living in these conditions, I am more than qualified to go live in some third world country. If I didn't have to commit to 27 months of service then I'd so be there.
Well my comrades, the homework is a callin'.

I hate going to my Tues/Thurs classes. I will try to never again schedule an 8am class when I have to drive there. It's just way way way to early.
The kitten woke me up at 4 this morning when she decided to cough up a hair ball. It's the most precious hairball I've ever seen. Then, right before I left for class, she decided to throw up on the floor. She got banished from the house for part of the day. I don't know if I like her to spend a lot of time outside. She ends up smelling like dog.
Running club is supposed to meet tonight, so is SCUBA club. I'm not going to soccer practice because I won't be able to go to practice on Thursday or the game on Sunday. This makes me sad. Oh well. Tear Tear Tear.
Maybe I'll write more after my clubs.

Wowwie!!! It has been such a long time. So much has happened.
The cat threw up the other day, and then two days after that, she decided to pee in my bed, while I was still in it. I enjoyed cleaning up both of her little signs of love. I also ran a 5k and came in dead last. It was a Starkville race, so there was no chip time and I'm not sure if I'll get a certificate. I did get a t-shirt, and I look positively smashing in it.
I'm at the library. High speed internet rocks my socks.
I'm going to Disney Thursday with my peeps. It should be wicked mad dope.
I will try to update more often, but I'm not going to talk about what I did over the past month. Those details will be lost forever.
bye loves!
