[Rant] Minor Rant III: For a Few Hollers More

I just stubbed my pinky toe so hard that I can tell that once I take off my sock, it's going to be a bloodbath in there. I'm pretty sure the nail is just holding on by a millimeter of skin.
 
Was in ceramics lab for 5 straight hours. Got all but one project done. Clay is a bitch, nuff said.\

Edit: Voodoo donuts? Well...I need to go to Portland now.

I'm so tired of hearing people I know use terms like "ladylike" and "classy" about female politicians. It just feels too much like buzzwords people do to avoid the important things. Oh, her seams are straight? Terrific. Is she a fucking idiot? That's okay, because she's never made a swear word in public! Just... get to the meat of what you want to say. You're making the choice to either idolize a woman because she probably reminds you of your mommy... or she just seems to "mean" (trans. - assertive), and that's just not what ladies are supposed to be like, dang it.

Well, make no mistake, I think that all people behaving in a kind and decent manner is admirable. I know women whom I call "real ladies," because they can get out of any situation with this amazing blend of dignity and strangely fierce politeness. But yeah, when the term becomes an excuse to try and return us to Meekville, well then screw you.
 
Well yes, politeness is important. In regards to feminism, does anyone else feel that some people take it too far at times? I remember this all girl punk band that played at this club my bro worked at where they wouldn't play with other bands unless they had girls in them. That...kinda defeats the purpose doesn't it?
 
I just looked up Doc Hammer just now. Apparently his band's website is still a Myspace. Keep in mind he own's his own company and could make his own site. I...am not sure what to think of this.
 
Over the past few days I've developed a symptom of a potentially serious health problem. It could be a minor issue, or (worst case scenario) it's a major problem. I have no health insurance even though I'm working. I don't have a lot of money. Still, I have to go see a doctor. The potential downside is too great.

I just feel so very anxious. What does it mean? Am I going to get a pill to fix it all, or am I about to find out that life will be a much shorter ride than I thought? Either way, how am I going to pay for this? I could try my luck with a free clinic, but I want to go see my regular doctor since he has my history.

Ugh. I can't sleep either. Things were going so well lately, too.

You know that commercial for christian rock music that has that one song our god is an awesome god?

That song has been in my head all night, BUT I dont know the song so it is just that same line over and over and over again.

Our God is an awesome God
He reigns from heaven above..

da DA da da da da Da

Here's a fun music mash up that got into my head the other day, you can interchange most of the Harry Potter main theme with Ocarina of Time's Song of Storms and it still sounds good. It's almost as close as Robo vs Rick Astley.
 
Had a nasty flu over the weekend, one of the worst I've ever had. It hit Friday evening and the fever didn't go away completely until yesterday. Now I have a migraine. I'm hoping that coffee (the first caffeine I've had in 5 days) and Pain Aid from the first aid cabinet at work will take care of it, because right now it's hard to make sense of emails.

Also - I now have "Our God is an Awesome God" stuck in my head.

Thanks. Damn song.


I had a short oral argument today. I did ok but I did mix up my Indian Civil Rights Act argument and my Fourteenth Amendment argument. They are very similar but I think it just came out as nonsensical. Dang it.

Ah well, when the prof was summing up his thoughts on our arguments he specifically gave props to mine. Not the ICRA/14th amendment one but a different one. So at least there is that.
