a smorgasbord of comments

Here are my random thoughts for today.

You know, there is something unnatural about detesting kids at the daycare as much as I do. I know that people say "I hate other people's kids", and I know there have definitely been kids I've disliked in the past, but there are kids that go to daycare with the boys that I loathe. Like, I have a physical reaction to them. There are the two sisters who practically attack me when I get in the door, in the baby's face, loud, HELLO BABY HELLO BABY. Trying to hold him, when they're under the age of six. Please. I don't think so. They get one inch from his face and then whine when he flails his arm and it hits them. HE'S SEVEN MONTHS OLD, idiots. Get out of here. Then there are these boys that really piss me off. One is so aggravating. He's the one whose name one of the boys was assigned for Christmas presents, and he came up to me and said HE GOT MY NAME AND I LIKE ELECTRONICS. Whatever, jerko. Be glad I didn't buy you the Play-Doh fun factory. Then there are two brothers who are such whiny tattletales. I swear, we can't even get in the door sometimes without one of them saying, "AIDAN GOT TIME OUT TODAY BECAUSE HE THREW A ROCK OUTSIDE!" Yeah, I'm sure you never do anything wrong, whiny jerk. This morning I was just like GET ME OUT OF HERE. I practically ran to flee from all the annoying kids.

I was watching "Roseanne" at three am and Becky had on Guess jeans, complete with the upside down triangle on the back pocket. Ahh.... good times. Too bad they weren't the ultra cool ones from back in the day with the zips on the outside of the ankles.

And one last awesome thing I read yesterday in the book I'm currently cruising through. This is interesting.

"[People] see... stories of Jack Ryan, the perfectly haired onetime Republican candidate for Senate in Illinois. Mr. Ryan had to drop out of the race in the spring of 2004 when a judge released papers filed in his divorce from Star Trek: Voyager star Jeri Ryan. In her divorce petition, Ms. Ryan accused her then-husband of forcing her to go to sex clubs in New York, New Orleans, and Paris... Ryan denied the allegations... Nonetheless, his campaign cratered, and with no other viable Republican candidates available to take his place, the Democratic nominee, an obscure state legislator named Barack Obama all of sudden seemed as if he might amount to something after all" (7).

And the nation of young people lines up behind the fluke senator...
