silveradeptToday was anti-productive, but a whole lot of fun. Occasionally, you need those to keep yourself balanced and on the right side of insane. Went to lunch with the family and at our restaurant, the waiter turned out to be someone with the right kind of humor. He fired first, according to the family, (since I was in the second group that arrived) and we kept escalating the battle between us. He fought well and valiantly. I don't know whether either side can claim any sotr of victory, but it was a lot of fun. Add on to that all the fun I have when the family gets in proximity, and today was a good day to start. Then there were the functions and such that take time, but I enjoy watching them happen. I don't know why, but I happen to like rituals - maybe that's part of the reason for my thesis. Putting two interests (knighthood and chivalric ritual) together makes for a highly-entertaining paper, even if it is rather large at the moment.
If you thought I was feeling silly, there's always someone stranger than I. Me? I'm just wasting time on imageboards, really. That's the problem with the internet - you can be exposed to and suck up new culture-segments exceedingly quickly. Often, likely, to the detriment of your work style. But it's okay, right... the draft's not due for a week or two, right...?
There's the guy who greeted his Wal-Mart customers with a picture of him wearing naught but a Wal-Mart bag. Unfortunatley, no picture of the picture, and the guy was fired.
And, of course, since our news love to, well, hype things, someone's annoyed, and rightfully so, that TV's cashing in on the disaster to make themselves look... something. Like idiots is my best guess.
Just don't get too wound up - someone might try to ban coffee like it was in the old times. (Pfft... who am I kidding - coffee's the only way any politician can get up in the morning after his late-night rounds of corruption. Or, perhaps, doing things that would require a porno soundtrack. Wakka Chikka Wakka Chikka, anyone?
Speaking of politics, if you favor direct action (apparently currenlty in vogue) over protest and such, someone's written a nice how-to on it. Doing Direct Action the safe(ish) way is always a plus.
Yeah, so I'm done for the night - see you in the morning. Sicne it's a class day, I can sleep in a bit. If it were a work day, I should be asleep by now. Isn't that funny... and my Panic Meeting's tomorrow for UMMUN - isn't that great? Conference is rapidly approaching - and I'm going to be at the eye of the hurricane.
