Busy
I helped my sister move from Chicago to St. Louis.
My graphics card decided to burn out, turning my computer into a $3000 dollar paperweight. $350 dollars of repairs and 6 hours of swearing later the paperweight became a computer again.
Picked up my sister at the airport and then drove her to another airport because she flew to Dallas, and then to Chicago, and then to St. Louis after missing a flight. Blarg.
Wrote a 17 page research paper with 12 resources and then threw together a presentation – all of that in 6 hours. I got an A. I hadn’t planned on rushing it but my computer decided the day before the paper was due sooooo…I now know I can write an excellent paper, dig up 12 sources, and create a presentation in a quarter of a day if needs be. That being said, I don’t want to do that again.
I finished my research project for my master’s thesis. There should be a new major available for students to pursue at my Alma Mater in the Fall of 2011 and possibly a Masters in the same area a few years later.
I’ve nearly finished the course-work for my second masters and the closest I’ve come to getting a job was as a grounds-keeper for my church. Maybe I’ll pursue a degree in rocket science so I can perform an outreach to Islamic communities whilst I roam the streets as a homeless man.
Read an article on a book I’m thinking about picking up – the premise is that Islam was originally a Christian heresy that was distorted to unite people behind Muhammed. Which would make Muhammed a Middle Eastern Joseph Smith…or Joseph Smith an American Muhammed.
I also read an article about how Obama and his administration have been largely silent on human rights issues so countries like China and Iran to begin flagrantly abusing their people. Say what you will about Bush, people knew the U.S. didn’t allow mistreatment by anyone but US. U.S.A.! U.S.A.!
I’m thinking he’ll be a one term president unless we can’t find anyone less incompetent to run for office. Gosh, let the Donkey run and people would probably choose it over him. The donkey can’t play golf, stay stupid things, and won’t play the race card because nobody is racist against donkeys. It’d command more respect internationally because who knows when it’d kick that red button?
Russian, Iran, and China already thinks we’re dumbasses so why not put a real ass in office? The government will be cheaper to run when this ass puts all of its jackass friends in high office.
So yeah, I’ve been busy, busy, busy.
