I swear to God, the end of the semester is like a ninja. I am unsure of how its arrival was made with such stealth. All I do know is that it is here and I am afraid.
So things have happened. A friend of mine went insane. They might have been like that the whole time but their condition is certainly more pronounced now. There's a pirate festival in Clearwater apparently. I would like to attend but the monkey on my back named "Work" might have other things to say about that.
Thanksgiving is next week. I can't help but feel guilty every Thanksgiving. The whole "Europeans coming in and dominating the natives thing." King Missle raises a good point about Native Americans, they aren't Native "Americans" per se because they were on this continent before it was called America. The man who named this country, Amerigo Vespucci, apparently never set foot on North America.. So even using the politically correct term is insulting (when isn't it?). I don't know if realizing this means anything or just makes me just another insuferable white kid trying to make up for his race. Whatever, I do what I want wheneva. Political correctness might have it's place in general discourse, but it always strikes me as so patronizing. Tangents on the other hand deserve a place at every dinner conversation, especially in the suburbs.
On the bright side I have a very special lady who is treating me to a romantic Thanksgiving style dinner. If you can guess who she is then I pose this question to you: Isn't she the best? I assert that she is!
Why oh why did I make a joke about his mom?
