So, I really should have stayed in bed this morning. I got up at about 7 and played a video game for a bit, then went back to bed just as grace was getting up and slept till noon. In the two hours since then, I've been faffing about online and seen some disturbing things. 1) Kenny was on MSN, or someone using his account. Whoever it was, they didn't respond to messages. 2) More adverts to see revealing photos of Brittney Spears in various situations than I can count. 3) More adverts telling me to 'click here' to make Brittney out-drink Lindsey than I can recall. 4) More stories on US human rights violations and participation in gross torture of unlawful detainees than I ever want to see again. 5) An advert for an online dating site showing a girl in a corset and miniskirt, wielding a golf club, with the word 'Swing!' at the bottom of the picture. Now, maybe it's because i've spent the past two hours eating green tea leaves, or maybe its just an overdose of fucked up culture, but I think i'm going to go get the duvet, put it over my head, and hide in the bath tub until god strikes down us wretched sinners.
Whereas I have seen a tibetan monk making a mandala and making sand drawings on children's hands for them and making them smile, and despite all the rest of the day, which mainly involved walking around a lot and getting jumped on by eager salespeople, it was a great moment and made me feel a lot more serene about things.
Aaw poor thing - looks like the 7th day has struck in vengeance. I dropped by to see that job hunting after a sabbattical isn't so bad after all. Thanks for cheering me up.

I was just glad that my email didn't offer me a penis enlargement, viagra or the opportunity for some rich Nigerians to park money in my bank account. It always feels so empty when I don't get these emails...So empty...
I have been getting plenty of those e-mails, some times I do the unsubscribe thing and sometimes i just delete away. Lately I've been told I have won a winning ticket in various national lotteries, but I'm holding out for the PowerBall, I have been investing two dollars a week with a gal from work, we are the Spudinaires and if we win they will have to hire about eight new people at the plant! It's fun to dream any way, I spend a lot of time up on line two thinking about how I'd spend my winnings. It makes up for not being able to stay in bed.
