Waking up a bit groggy, did not sleep much last night. Had a pretty busy day yesterday, though. Got my driver's license, bought a car, got it insured... still have some steps to take to get it all wrapped up and will be picking the car up tomorrow. 2007 Toyota Avalon Limited with only 77k miles on it at a pretty good price. Might need to ease into the experience of a 3.5L V6 after practicing on i4s all this time. *starts to giggle, stops himself*
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
-Stephen Jay Gould

Having an excellent Black Forest Mocha from the local coffee shop down the street, not the sludge Starbucks drains out of the tank of a 20 year old lawn mower engine and into a cup for you.

Stuck at work, but on a 'vapor' break. Longing for the day that I'll be pulling pints for the local hot co-eds instead of helping the oil industry kill the planet.

Woke up to find these in my living room

Just bought the gift for me and my girlfriend's anniversary, a really nice and simple gold bracelet with a light blue 'stone'.
Amalynne I've done that (well not to you), it feels good to put the flowers and just sneak out like a ninja
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

Listening to JazzRadio.com avant garde channel. Maybe go watch Wish I Was Here later. Not gotten to see that yet.

How sweet of you, ladies love their ninjas

Mine hides Andes mints around my apartment for me to find, which would be adorable if they didn't melt sometimes... :/
