Your Daily Update

I know how y'all look forward to it. Like coffee, or chocolate, or booze. Whatever gets you through the day, right???

Just finished my debate in government. It went better than I thought it would- we somehow managed to sidestep the entire issue of gay marriage completely and avoid the shower of self-righteous fundamentalist questions being fired from the group. We had one answer. "The constitutional arena is not the appropriate place for this type of issue." Amazing how many different ways you can say that. Got an amusing story about how Canada legalized orgies, too. Yeah, I really needed to hear that from a professor.

And then I hauled myself up the back maintanance stairway to the computor lab (all the fishies are inexplicably gone and there is now a sign on the door saying, "So long and thanks for all the fish"...I'm sure Anubis would appreciate that...) and printed off seven art movement outlines that the art history prof had not posted yet. SEVEN!!!!!!!!!!!! Tha's like a hundred and fifty pages of slides- all at one time. I think Concordia is ready to expell me, and the little lab moderator person was glaring at me. And really, could she have posted these a month ago when we started doing the damn things? Honestly, I'm kind of worried abut whether she feeds her children or not. I wouldn't be surprised if she gives them a massive meal once every couple of weeks.

Completely changing gears here, Rosie's joining The View. Oh good Lord. Either this experience will magically turn her straight (because who wants to deal with those women all day???) or, my opinion, there will be a bloodbath episode by the second week when Rosie finally stops shouting and literally bites somebody's head off. Because, as the ill-fated Boy George musical debacle attested, the Queen of Nice is gone. Now it's just one angry lesbo. Who could probably snap Elisabeth Hasselbeck's neck. This is gonna be good.

I can't link this because I can't find the actual article, but apparently the National Anthem is being adapted into Spanish.

Yeah, our National Anthem. I don't use this often, but WTF??? Okay, just a thought here. Maybe this is why immigration is such a freakin' big issue. And maybe this is why other countries don't really have a problem with immigration-if coming here meant actually changing countries and learning a new language and adapting to a different culture, wouldn't there be a significant drop of border-jumpers? I mean, I'm fairly certain that if I decided to sneak into France and live there incognito, they would not change the signs for me. In fact, they would probably laugh at my admittedly laughable pronunciation issues. And then deport me. Either way, it would not be pretty. I'm not saying we should deport everybody who's here already, or that we should make INS regulations so difficult that nobody from a lower economic background can come here, but when you start changing one of the symbols of the nation's identity, things have gone too far.

That's my political rant for the day. I will now lug my soapbox upstairs to the library and use our nifty automatic three-hole-punch machine that I can just not get enough of to punch the seven movement outlines I now have. Thank you and have a nice day. :)
