• Back to work today after a nice weekend but it's a short work week. 
  Just today and tomorrow and then I'm off to sunny Florida and I cannot
  wait!  Back to this past weekend, I spent Friday night and a good
  portion of Saturday putting together my new computer.  I'm quite
  pleases with how it turned out.  I did all the work myself, except for
  when I had my dad help me with screwing in the motherboard but
  everything else was all me.  And I have about a dozen cuts on my hands
  to prove it.  My hands look like I spent the time playing with barbed
  wire and not a computer.  Nonetheless, it's together, working and
  kicking ass.  The lights and everything look awesome.  I have minor
  details to attend to with it but it's done for the most part. 

   I went tanning yesterday and got so burned it's not even funny.  I even
  burnt the underside of my kneecaps. Do you know how hard it is to burn
  the underside of your kneecaps?  This is all the stupid girl at the
  desk's fault.  I spent too much time staring at her cleavage and not
  enough time paying attention to the fact that I ordered too much time. 
  I'm praying that this is just post-tanning redness and it will go away
  but I fear I've fucked it all up.  

  On Sunday I substituted again at Hebrew school and I had a different
  class this time and these kids were honestly the best class I ever
  had.  When I came in in the morning, I always let them do whatever the
  hell they want until school starts.  Normally the kids yell at each
  other or something but these kids grabbed flash cards and tried to see
  who could stump who.  I could tell at that point they were
  semi-normal.  I had brought in munchkins as a bribe to keep them at bay
  but could have easily gone without them but was more than happy to part
  with them.  There was one snag though, one girl was trying to read
  something as part of a contest to see who could get the most words
  right.  Well she didn't take it very well and started crying silently. 
  I decided to ignore it because what the hell was I gonna do?  Anyway,
  it turned out to be the right course of action because 2 or 3 words
  later she knew the answer to it and popped up and was fine after that. 
  Looks like my revolutionary ideas of ignoring kids works.

  Went to go see National Treasure last night with the folks.  Not that
  bad a movie, really.  Dumb dialogue but I was never bored and the movie
  held my interest.  Something was always happening and the female lead,
  Diane
  Kruger, was sooooo hot. Oh my god,  I need to move to Germany
  to find a girl like her(Ed. note: and then get shot down).  Anyway,
  movie was good and I've been a fan of Sean Bean's work ever since
  Goldeneye.

  1 day & 15 hours until Florida!
