I hate owls.

Well, not entirely, just an owl I heard last night at around 2AM. I went to bed early at 9pm because I'm trying to get my sleeping pattern back on track (I was going to bed at 9AM--so that means a 12 hour adjustment). Over the years I have discovered, if my brain hears a reoccurring noise it wakes me up to see what is going on. This owl kept "whoo"-ing every 10 seconds or so and woke me up. This pissed me off. I know there are owls in the area but none have ever wakened me before. So after I went to the bathroom, I wanted to look out the bay window in the living room to attempt to see the owl. Apparently, my body thought it was time to get up and, upon returning to bed, I laid there until 3am (Though the asshole owl left by then). I knew that I wasn't going to go back to sleep anytime soon so I got up and took a sleeping aid, Tylenol PM, and was expecting to go to sleep soon... NOPE! I laid in bed another hour and decided that I might be more comfortable on the couch. I laid there another hour but I was starting to get sleepy. I would start to doze off and nearly roll off the couch so then I decided to return to my bed. Changing rooms caused me to wake up and it took another 45 minutes to fall asleep. So I guess I fell asleep around 5:45-6AM. At 7AM my Dad woke me up to ask when I was going to get up and go to my advisor's appointment at EKU. I said, "Eight." Then it took another 5 minutes to fall back asleep. Then at 7:45 my Mom got up to tell me it was 8AM. I wish I said, "Don't tell me when to get up, my Nintendo DS will!" In total, I guess I got nearly 8 hours of sleep, but it was over a freakin' 11 hour period!!! I wish I didn't have to sleep--it's such a waste of time.

Ready.gov - You will be attacked by terrsts.

I just saw an ad on tv of a little girl playing hopscotch. Once she threw the stone and hoped to its square she told you to make a plan and then the website URL, Ready.gov appeared on the screen.

I started laughing. I had to check this site out... basically, the site is designed to scare Americans. Among other things, it shows you how to plastic wrap and duct tape your house up. I recall that the comedian Lewis Black once said, "Our government told us that the only way we could protect ourselves from a chemical fuck attack was with duct tape? The only way duct tape would help in a chemical attack would be if you could get enough to wrap yourself up and die before the chemicals got you.

Well, this is my first official blog entry here at C3. I'm currently attempting to try to go to sleep since it's 5:40AM and all. As I lay here, I reflect on all the failures in my life--mostly failures in school and love.

I've lived with my brother through out the summer--supposedly was going to attend summer school at U of Ky until my classes were dropped due to academic suspension so all I've been doing is working at a part time job. Now I'm trying to get into an easier school--one I've loathed ever since I knew what the word "college" meant--Eastern Ky University. I hate it because it has "eastern ky" in the title and that a retarded monkey could get in. I'm trying to start over. I was a computer science major but reading all the "CS Jobs are going to India" articles on slashdot has got me down. So I guess I'll go into CIS or something computer related.

I am a failure at love. I figure that I lack the appropriate social skills needed to initiate a relationship... plus I'm fat.

Sparing the details, I figure my life has been a total waste since December of 2000.

All well... I need to try and sleep so I can start moving back home with my parents. I really don't want to but what other choice do I have... move in with my imaginary girlfriend? (she gives excellent hj's btw)...

Good night. 1
