I’m quite sure I’ve developed a problem with my tonsils, see, I think they’re too big. Sometimes I snort when I laugh…is that a problem, necessarily? Mebbe not. Sometimes when I do it it makes other people start laughing…especially if I was the only one laughing in the first place. BUT. It calls into question whether or not they’re laughing AT me or WITH me, and I would really like to know which it is until I realize I will do ANYTHING for a laugh, so it really makes no difference in the long run. Perhaps it’s neither, and they’re laughing at my circumstances…for instance, maybe I’M not what’s funny, but something that exerts force on me is…like the fact that I may have developed a problem with my tonsils… ---

I finally got all nine turkeys finished this evening. I stayed a few minutes late at work to complete the last one. Now all I have to do is work on the eighteen wings then help the kids with the necklaces Monday morning. The eyes make them look goofy and bug-eyed. I guess it could be considered cute but to me they look like they are all on speed. ---

Of course, the company _I_ work for seems to be actually _lowering_ their design specifications all the time. Some day I’ll show up in R&D and calmly relate to them the hell we’re going through over at tech support because they keep screwing up. Or maybe I’ll go all kung-fu’ey on them. Depends on how many more calls I get about the YAISD-2 port on the new ML model pinging the wrong dish after every. F\*\*\*ing. Reboot. Well, it’s a living. :rolleyes: ---

My fish have no names. I think that’s why they stay alive. Wait, one died last week. Got stuck to the filter for no particular reason. Never mind. Maybe I should name my fish. ---

Pens keep disappearing. The other day, I left 3 black pens on my desk and when I came in the next evening, they were gone. The pens are gone. And Thanksgiving is my least favorite holiday. ---

gosh, i went to the movies 3 days ago and ate more than half a big bucket of popcorn. (the rest went to my bestie who i went with). along with 2 cans of coke and a small pepsi throughout the day. i ended up puking 4 times when i got home. its a great way to start the summer break, don’t ya think? anyway, it mightn’t have been the popcorn. it could have been the fact we watched Peter Pan. eeh. ---

Dammit, MPUCoder, how can I subscribe to your [DVD programming site](http://www.mpucoder.com/dvd/) if the site only takes PayPal donations and I can’t get PayPal because I can’t get a credit card?
